I REMEMBER PAPA
Illustrated by Greg Shed
“[A] sentimental reminiscence about a
Saturday train trip to the ball game and
a life lesson gained from a childhood
loss....While the plot is constructed
around a baseball mitt, the theme at
the center of the story is the hallowed

bygone era, fondly remembered.”

THE BEAR THAT HEARD CRYING
With Helen Kinsey
Illustrated by Ted Rand
In this fictional retelling of an event that
occurred in 1783, three-year-old Sarah
Whitcher wanders into the woods and
disappears. For three long days friends
and neighbors search fruitlessly for her.
Then a stranger leads the searchers to
a pine tree beneath which the child lies
sleeping. Sarah tells her rescuers of the
“big black dog” that kept her warm every
night—but the bear tracks encircling
her tell a different tale. “Rand’s settings—especially
the darkening forest, in
luminous shades of gray-green, and the
soft, furry bear—are beautifully painted.”
—Kirkus
