Like a well-worn, snuggly blanket, this sweet bedtime story about a little bear who's afraid of the dark and his mother's creative solution will warm and comfort readers big and small. Frankie is a little bear who has a hard time falling asleep. The dark is scary, and he hates to be alone. So his mother gives him a ball of yarn to hold when he goes to bed, and she keeps the other end in the next room, working it into a surprise for Frankie. Every few nights the yarn color changes, and Frankie dreams in all the colors that he and his mother pick out. One night he's swimming in turquoise water, another night he's in a cool gray fog. He plays with a marmalade kitten and eats delicious chocolate cake. Eventually Frankie and his mother create something special--and Frankie learns that he's always connected to those he loves, even when he's alone in the dark. A beautiful story of love and crafting, A Bedtime Yarn will appeal to knitters, sleepy little bears and any parents dealing with their child's fear of the dark.

A pirate is sleeping snug in his bed, dreaming pirate dreams, when a great storm comes up at sea. The pirate sleeps on, but his bed is awake and scared of the thunder and the angry waves. Tossed this way and that, the ship finally crashes, sending the pirate to a tropical island and his bed off to sea. At first, the bed is overjoyed. It's free from smelly feet, snoring and scratchy wool. It floats in the now peaceful water, meeting friendly gulls and playful dolphins and basking in the sun. But soon the little bed begins to feel like something is missing... This fanciful tale of a bed lost at sea will capture the hearts of little pirates everywhere and send them off to sleep with dreams of tropical birds, swooshing waves and chattering monkeys.

An original Jewish folktale about a girl who knits, a deaf woman, and a piece of blue yarn. When her family invites a deaf woman and her baby to stay, Ruthie, a talented knitter of mittens, wonders how the mother will know if her child wakes in the night. The surprising answer inspires Ruthie to knit a special gift that offers great comfort to mother and baby—and to Ruthie herself. With language and imagery reminiscent of stories told long ago, this modern Jewish folktale will resonate with those who love crafts, anyone who’s encountered someone with physical differences—and with everyone who has ever lost a mitten in the depths of winter.
Peter misses his parents when they¿re not with him. How can he stop feeling sad? With help from his grandmother, Peter opens his imagination to ¿see¿ the magic yarn that knits together families¿maybe even the whole world¿despite distance and time. Magic Yarn¿s brilliant illustrations juxtapose the coziness of Peter¿s everyday life with the vastness of the universe, where points of light shine boldly in the midst of darkness. Not long after Magic Yarn was born, a seven-year-old boy was staying overnight at his grandmother¿s house. Bedtime arrived, along with a large dose of separation anxiety. He knew he¿d never fall sleep without his parents. Grandma tried her best to reassure him. She hugged him, talked to him, read to him and sang to him, but nothing worked. Then she remembered Magic Yarn. She read it to him¿not once, but three times. He fell asleep with the book tucked under his pillow. In the morning, he asked his grandmother for some yarn, which he tied around a tree in her back yard. Magic Yarn quickly became a regular part of his bedtime ritual, and, according to his parents, miraculously ended his separation anxiety. Do you know a child who could use a little Magic Yarn?
