Rabbit’s Snow Dance Master storytellers Joseph and James Bruchac present a hip and funny take on an Iroquois folktale about the importance of patience, the seasons, and listening to your friends. Pair it with other stories about stubborn animals like Karma Wilson’s Bear Wants More and Verna Aardema’s Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears. Rabbit loves the winter. He knows a dance, using an Iroquois drum and song, to make it snow—even in summertime! When rabbit decides that it should snow early, he starts his dance and the snow begins to fall. The other forest animals are not happy and ask him to stop, but Rabbit doesn’t listen. How much snow is too much, and will Rabbit know when to stop? The father-son duo behind How Chipmunk Got His Stripes, Raccoon’s Last Race, and Turtle’s Race with Beaver present their latest retelling of Native American folklore. “The telling is sprightly, and Newman's ink-and-watercolor artwork makes an ideal companion. An appealing addition to folktale shelves.” —Booklist “This modern retelling maintains [the Bruchacs’] solid reputation for keeping Native American tales fresh.” —School Library Journal “The picturesque language makes it a pleasure to read aloud.”—BCCB

When her mom puts her in a fancy dress on the day her Aunt Lil visits, Hannah the Hippo must get help from her animal friends to clean up when she can’t stay away from the squishy mud puddles in the yard. Hannah the Hippo’s very favorite thing to do is play in the mud. She could spend all day dancing, rolling, and jumping around in the cool puddles. But when her Aunt Lil comes to visit one day, Hannah’s mom dresses her in a perfectly clean pink dress for the special occasion and insists that she must not play in any mud today. As hard as she tries to obey her mom’s orders and keep her dress sparkling clean, Hannah finds herself playing in a sloppy, mushy puddle of mud without even noticing. Calling in for help from some of her animal friends, Hannah is determined to clean herself up and return home in tip-top shape before Aunt Lil arrives. “Droll humor abounds in Schmidt’s pastel-dominated watercolors.” – Publishers Weekly
