She is studying the planets in school and loves Roman mythology. "It might be called Pluto," she says, thinking of the dark underworld. Grandfather loves the idea and contacts his friend at London's Royal Astronomical Society, who writes to scientists at the Lowell Observatory in Massachusetts, where Pluto was discovered. After a vote, the scientists agree unanimously: Pluto is the perfect name for the dark, cold planet. Here is a picture book perfect for STEM units and for all children--particularly girls--who have ever dreamed of becoming a scientist."--Amazon.com.]]></description><link>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1335222</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1335222</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McGinty, Alice B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1335222101</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Story of Venetia Burney</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781524768317/MC.GIF&amp;client=richmondpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feasts and Festivals Around the World]]></title><description><![CDATA["From South Korea to Nigeria to the USA, come celebrate festivals throughout the year!

But Rabbi Ruben doesn't know much about home repair, so when his creative fixes--challah dough plugging a drippy faucet, tablecloths blocking a window draft--make things humorously worse, it'll take his whole congregation banding together to remind him what really makes a place feel like a happy home.]]></description><link>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1504282</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1504282</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McGinty, Alice B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1504282101</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781536210866/MC.GIF&amp;client=richmondpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bathe the Cat]]></title><description><![CDATA[Bathe the floor? Sweep the dishes? This riotous romp of a picture book follows a frantic family as they try to get some chores done-with no help from the family cat, who keeps scrambling the list of chores with hilarious effects. Get ready for a rollicking read-aloud with a truly purrfect ending. It's cleaning day, but the family cat will do anything to avoid getting a bath. So instead of mopping the floor or feeding the fish, the family is soon busy rocking the rug, vacuuming the lawn, and sweeping the dishes. Bouncy rhyme carries the story headlong into the growing hilarity, until finally Dad restores some kind of order-but will the cat avoid getting his whiskers wet? HILARIOUS READ-ALOUD: Word scrambles are a delight in this silly rhyming picture book! Kids will love the accessible rhyming text, and emerging readers will be able to anticipate words after repeated reads, making for an engaging and interactive read-aloud experience. CATNIP FOR CAT LOVERS: This sweet and sneaky feline will do anything to get out of having a bath! Ample cat antics and scenes of increasing mischief (and increasing chaos!) will tickle young readers and entice parents-particularly those with a furry feline member of their own households. TWO DADS LEAD THE WAY: Dad and Papa are the heads of this large and loving biracial family, mirroring illustrator David Robert's own orientation and providing picture book readers with a positive depiction of LGBTQ+ characters in a fun and funny family story.  Perfect for: - Parents - Gift-givers - Cat lovers]]></description><link>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1559198</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1559198</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McGinty, Alice B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1559198101</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781452169170/MC.GIF&amp;client=richmondpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Step by Step]]></title><description><![CDATA[On the morning he is to start school, a nervous little boy is reassured by his father's advice to handle problems step by step.]]></description><link>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1405590</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1405590</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McGinty, Alice B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1405590101</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781534479944/MC.GIF&amp;client=richmondpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Story for Small Bear]]></title><description><![CDATA[Small Bear's mother promises stories before their winter slumber if Small Bear will help prepare with no dilly dallying, but the playful cub finds it hard to stick to her tasks.]]></description><link>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1367738</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1367738</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McGinty, Alice B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1367738101</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781984852274/MC.GIF&amp;client=richmondpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Darwin]]></title><link>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1110539</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S101C1110539</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McGinty, Alice B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://yourlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1110539101</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780618995318/MC.GIF&amp;client=richmondpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
