Hello! Can someone help me find this childrens book I used to have. It remember for a fact it had the stories the owl and the pussycat, georgie porgie, hey diddle diddle, little jack horner. It could have said mother goose or nursery rhymes on the front.

It was a white book with gold trim and i believe the pages had a golden trim as well. It was quite heavy. I was born in 99' so i am unsure if this book is from the 70's or earlier or later. Me and my mother have been searching for months! If you have any suggestions please help a girl out!

i’m trying to find out this children’s book about a young girl (she has brown hair) and carries a brown teddy bear with her to the supermarket , she then buys ingredients for a chocolate cake

She can’t remember the title or author but is looking for a book that she has previously read. It is about a poor girl who goes on a journey to a man who can predict the future. He creates a statue of her that ties her with everyone she is going to meet in her lifetime. She makes some friends on her journey, such as a dragon who can’t fly. It has a lot of mini-stories, including a story about a man who asks the other man to predict who his son will marry. When he finds out the girl is not royal, he tries to kill her. But she survives and gets adopted by the royal family. The son ends up marrying her.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? We would be very grateful if someone could point us in the right direction.

Thank you!

I recently got fascinated by folk tales and the origins. Whilst stories like Cinderella go across multiple countries, there are other stories which are very similar in other countries. For example in England there is Jack and the Beanstalk and in Norway they have a folktale called the boy who stole the giant treasure. Little red Riding Hood, another example where in China they have a story called the Tiger grandmother a version of a tiger instead of a wolf.

Hello! I'm looking for help finding the title of a children's fantasy novel I read when I was in elementary school, between the years of 1994 and 1998. It was about a boy and a girl who crawl inside a fairy mound and find themselves transported to a magic land (as you do). One of the companions they make in the other world is a leprechaun who insists it's pronounced LOOPER-kawn. At the end, after they've saved the world from something, all the various fairies want to throw them a big feast before they send the kids home, and say they'll use their magic on the kids' parents to make them forget they were ever gone. The kids quite reasonably point out that even if they won't remember it later their parents must still be worried sick and ask to be sent home immediately to spare their parents any more worry. If I remember correctly, the cover on the edition I read showed the boy and girl on a horse riding away from a dragon that was breathing fire at them, though of course other editions might have different art. Any help?

Children's books that your children say have favorite books. This author was the favorite of two of my children. Shadowbox Hunt and Magical Moonballs

I’ve been wracking my brain and my search engine trying to find a kids’ picture book from my childhood. In the book, a demanding queen threatens the palace cook with beheading if he doesn’t put an ever growing list of ingredients on her pizza. By the time the book was read to me, I’m sure it must have been 10+ years old, and that must have been 20 something years ago; this would make the book some 30 years old, I’m guessing. Does anyone have any clue as to what this book might be?

So if it takes place pre world war 2 does that mean that pepitos father is a facist?

Can you guys recommend some good quality printing options online.???? First page

Looking for an illustrated children’s book possibly from the early 2000’s. The cover features the main character (a kid) flying a homemade soapbox style aircraft. Some key points in the story are the aircraft, a snow day and his brother or his buddy getting his finger squished in a laundry press. Been looking for the title for a while now and this is all I have to go on.

Thanks!

My mom used to read these books to me! It was like a small series of books or maybe I only had a few of them but they were these huge board books. All of them were about a little girl and their doll that looked just like them. I remember one page of one of the books where the little girl is eating with her doll and they both get kind of messy but that's all I can remember

Looking for title of book I read around 1968/69. Kids book about a professor or doctor, who would get caught up in wind/cyclones and travel to different places solving mysteries. Usually had a few children around him to explain things he saw. Lived in and old house. I think thats the book beside me

Trying to find this book for my boyfriend. It is a tale in which two swimmers compete for the most shallow dive. Likely 90s or earlier. Maybe minimal, shel Silverstein esque art. A line about skimming the surface like minnows. The story ends something like diving onto a soaked bath mat.

Does this ring any bells?

Thanks kindly!

There's this book that I remember having as a kid around 10-12 years ago. I think my mom got it at a thrift/second-hand store, so it could very well be much older than that. It was an interactive horror book that was supposed to be creepy and maybe unsettling. The book was maybe ten pages long. It was drawn in a sort of cartoonish style and had a sort of Tim Burton vibe to it (although I'm like 99 percent sure it's not by Tim Burton). It was the type of children's book that had hard cardboard-ish pages. It was super interactive (multiple interactive bits on every page) and had quite a few pull tabs and loose pieces. The book was also quite large from what I remember, bigger than a composition notebook (but I also was pretty little at the time, so it could just be a matter of perspective.) It had a few words on each page to develop the story a little bit, but it was maybe a small paragraph per page if that. Although I loosely describe it as horror, the book was kinda more gross than anything (stuff like cartoonish smashed bugs and worms), and there was no gore. There might have been bones or the likes shown at one point, but it was never outright gory or anything crazy that would traumatize a child.

I remember a couple of scenes and the main premise of the story. The premise, from what I remember was this boy going to school, and being unsettled by all the creepy and gross things that his classmates are doing. (the boy might have been new in the town, but I'm not sure.) I remember the boy looking super sad and/or grossed out the whole book.

I don't remember all the scenes in the book, but the four scenes that I remember were each on different pages. The first page is the opening page (I think) and portrays the town, but you can only see a few houses. You can open the windows of one of the houses to see some lady. And you could take the newspaper from the mailman, flip through it, and read it. I think the story in the newspaper was of a kid who got crushed by a giant first-place trophy or something similar. It was illustrated in super gray and muted tones. The next scenes I describe may not be in order but Im 70 percent sure that they are. There was a scene of a classroom. you could lift up the desks to find books/ monster fashion magazines and a spellbook (the spellbook may have been a part of a different section). The main gag for the classroom is that you could take the teacher's head off and tuck it under her arm so she was holding it. Another scene was in the cafeteria, and you could lift up the plates to see smashed bugs and I think rotten food. You could also lift up a cover on a staircase and see the lunch lady and a cookbook. The last scene I remember was of the boy going to one of his classmate's houses ( the classmate was a recurring character throughout the book and in at least some of the scenes) and she's nowhere to be found until you lift up the piano cover and she's tangled up in the strings of the piano. The piano is a black grand piano. There were a lot of other scenes that I can't fully remember and don't feel confident describing because I don't want to get it wrong. However, there were pull tabs and other interactive elements scattered throughout the book.

I’m looking for children’s picture books that are basically illustrated poems. One that has (in your opinion) really nice artwork and a memorable poem.

An example would be “In Every Life” by Marla Frazee.

Any recommendations? I know it’s subjective so whatever you personally like is fine!

I am looking for an author who wrote personalized books about children conquering their dreams. This particular book was about my brother who was sitting at home watching a broncos football game and had a daydream that he became the quarterback for the Denver Broncos and won the Super Bowl. This book was certainly purchased by my parents and was created by an author to customize to his likes. Does anyone know of what author this could be? Long shot but thank you!

Paris 1950s? Pre World War II? Maybe from 1937 to 1939?

There was an old children’s book about either a duck or goose looking for a spot to escape the rain. They go to several locations and each spot isn’t right, then they find the last place and it’s perfect but another animal family needs shelter too so the baby animal learns to share.

As a kid I loved E.B. White's books, especially "Charlotte's Web" and "The Trumpet of the Swan." I'm thinking of gifts for a friend's 8-year-old granddaughter. Are kids still reading these books, or are they "out" nowadays?

Princess Treble is a fairytale about an ordinary talented girl who turned into magical Musical Princess. Her voice has the power to heal and create magical symphonies to protect the Melody town.

The cover of the book sort of looks like this but it has a house on the front of it, it’s all I can remember. I don’t know title or name. But it shows rooms in a house and you have to find items in the rooms. I would love to find this book and purchase it again!

The loss of our first family pet prompted me to write this little children's book. It is the true story of how we found Tootie, named her, and how our family made memories that will last forever.
