Jack O'Lantern
Summary
"I wasn’t always a brilliant orange with a hint of yellow, a globe with a perfectly curved stem. I came from very humble beginnings. My first memory was of a man named John, walking through a field whistling and gently placing a small part of me into the cool, damp earth. In fact, he planted hundreds just like me into the soil, and we disappeared, leaving the field looking barren. We waited and waited for the right time to reappear. Then, it happened!" Follow Jack O'Lantern on his journey from tiny seed to a big and beautiful orange pumpkin. See the world through the "eyes" of Jack as he grows and finally leaves the pumpkin patch for his own adventure. The Life Cycle Series books, including The Life of Bud and Daisy, are engaging tools for classroom or individual listening, and perfect for ages 8 and up. Includes a fun lesson for home or school, too!

Muffin's Shadow
Summary
Muffin was enjoying the peace and quiet of her yard when Mom and Dad excitedly called out to her. “Muffin, let’s go for a ride!” The little family drove and drove for what seemed like years of Muffin’s doggie life. Where were they taking her? When Dad pulled into the parking lot, Muffin became a little nervous, because this was somewhere new. The smells were not familiar: peanut butter, apple, stuffed doggie toys...but other funky smells, too. The place was big, like a giant maze, and her eyes hadn’t adjusted to the bright lights. Then, suddenly, she saw it, for the very first time...her shadow! It seemed to follow her everywhere. She kept moving, but the shadow haunted her. What was the shadow, and will Muffin get free of it? Listen along with Muffin’s Shadow: A Muffin “Tail” to find out more. Just right for ages five to eight, the audiobook is wonderful for classroom and humane education, too.

One Eye
Summary
There once was a bright blue house, with a slippery slate roof and a creaky crooked porch, that sat to the left of the fork in the road. The porch was a peaceful gathering place, and the man who lived there often sat and enjoyed the view and the humans and animals who so often stopped by. The man scattered peanuts and seeds on the porch for the animals, who looked forward to their tasty treats. One day the man in the bright blue house with the slippery slate roof and the creaky crooked porch was watching the current summer storm, when he realized he was no longer alone. A small, injured brown squirrel sat motionless just a few feet away.... Would the man in the bright blue house be able to help the wounded little squirrel? Find out in One Eye: A Squirrel’s Tale by author Laura W. Eckroat. Includes the story of the real-life One Eye and White Ears, plus a wildlife sample lesson that can be used along with the book by teachers and humane educators for grades 1-5.
