Joey And Jet In Space

When Jet runs away, he could be anywhere, maybe even outer space.

Joey has a dog. And a ball. And a great throwing arm. Jet has Joey. And a job to do. And do. And do. And do. They make a fine pair. If you were Joey's ball -- the one with the blue stripe -- you would keep moving among the birds through the trees on the water down the hill up the hill across the street between the tables over the roofs into a hole and out of a hole along with Jet, Joey's dog.

A boy and his dog play a game of fetch in a field of prepositions--among, between, past, and all around.

Jet! Where IS that dog? No one has seen him... not the space pilots, nor the robots, nor the multi-armed thingamabob. Maybe YOU will be the one to help Joey find him!

Few words are needed in this inventive and fun transportation adventure! "Bus! Stop!" a boy yells, as his bus pulls away one early morning. He must wait for the next bus. But the next one does NOT look like his bus at all. And neither does the next one, or the next. At first, the boy is annoyed. Then he is puzzled. Then intrigued. The other buses look much more interesting than his bus. Maybe he should try a different bus after all, and he's glad he does! Here is a book with few words and delightful illustrations that shows very young children that trying something a little different can be a lot of fun.

Awarded an Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature Picture Book Honor, this stunning picture book brings to life the imagination of Japanese American artist, Isamu Noguchi. (Cover image may vary.) If you are Isamu, stones are the most special of all. How can they be so heavy? Would they float if they had no weight? Winner of the Theordor Seuss Geisel Award in 2020 for Stop! Bot!, James Yang imagines a day in the boyhood of Japanese American artist, Isamu Noguchi. Wandering through an outdoor market, through the forest, and then by the ocean, Isamu sees things through the eyes of a young artist . . .but also in a way that many children will relate. Stones look like birds. And birds look like stones. Through colorful artwork and exquisite text, Yang translates the essence of Noguchi so that we can all begin to see as an artist sees.
