NOTHING STOPS NOAH is a picture book with new characters it takes place in a pet store and is full of humorous events that will delight any child. A HORSE OF COURSE is about the best gift at Aaron's birthday party and is a fun story of a horse living in the house. SHOO CAT is a story about prejudice and preconceived ideas. Ethan thinks he knows all about cats until a stray decides to straighten him out.
