DOWNLOAD EBOOKA foolish knight is certain that his side of the wall is the safe side in this clever, amusingly meta picture book by the acclaimed creator of It's Only Stanley There's a wall in the middle of the book, and our hero--a young knight--is sure that the wall protects his side of the book from the dangers of the other side--like an angry tiger and giant rhino, and worst of all, an ogre who would gobble him up in a second! But our knight doesn't seem to notice the crocodile and growing sea of water that are emerging on his side. When he's almost over his head and calling for help, who will come to his rescue? An individual who isn't as dangerous as the knight thought--from a side of the book that might just have some positive things to offer after all!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA king and his servant learn about the benefits of diversity and the damage that barriers can do in this colorful tale. In this moving and valuable story, a king banishes anyone who looks different than him and builds a wall to keep them away. His kingdom was once flourishing with singers and sculptors, dancers and astronomers, and everyone in between. Now, most of the people are gone. Once he sees how lonely his side of the wall has become, he realizes where he went wrong and gains a new appreciation for his diverse and talented kingdom. With a visually engaging style that makes a complex lesson simple, this story shows children how a community can be harmed when barriers are built and how it thrives when people come together. “The Wall shows in brilliant color just how vibrant your life can be when you break down barriers and work toward inclusion, which is a wonderful message for readers of any age.” —Katherine Kleffner, blogger, The Nerdy Girl Express “A clever ebb and flow of colors and shapes that will have young readers, as well as the king, quickly seeing the errors of exclusionary ways.”—Foreword Reviews “The Wall: A Timeless Tale is a joyful celebration of diversity, bar none!” —Storywraps “Macri and Zanotti . . . make it clear that shutting people out only weakens a kingdom, and they do it with laughter, not argument.” —Publishers Weekly This is a fixed-format ebook, which preserves the design and layout of the original print book

DOWNLOAD EBOOK“Verde’s unique style and simple yet increasingly important messages of peace, mindfulness, and community make her stories a must-share...A must-purchase.” —School Library Journal (starred review) “Walls do not just create barriers and divide spaces. They can be canvases for artmaking; opportunities to shape a community.” —The Horn Book “This story of urban renewal sends a welcome double message by Verde: neighbors and neighborhoods are more than the way they look, and ordinary people can band together to transform big things.” —Publishers Weekly A boy takes on a community art project in order to make his neighborhood more beautiful in this empowering and inspiring picture book by Susan Verde, stunningly illustrated by award-winning artist John Parra. One creative boy. One bare, abandoned wall. One BIG idea. There is a wall in Ángel’s neighborhood. Around it, the community bustles with life: music, dancing, laughing. Not the wall. It is bleak. One boy decides to change that. But he can’t do it alone. Told in elegant verse by Susan Verde and vibrantly illustrated by John Parra, this inspiring picture book celebrates the power of art to tell a story and bring a community together.
