For Mako, a little Japanese girl, the new shoes were clogs painted with red lacquer that shone beautifully. This is the story of what happened after she cracked the new clogs playing the weather-telling game and so longed for a bright, shiny new pair to replace them that she almost did a dishonest thing.

The warmth and quiet understanding of the grandmother who, remembering her own temptations as a little girl, recalls this story for her granddaughter, makes A Pair of Red Clogs especially moving. Kazue Mizumura’s charming illustrations are as delicate and graceful as the story itself.

And the next morning Henry assembled his equipment for the trip: lunch and flags for claiming all that he planned to discover.

45th Anniversary Edition.

“Don’t be late coming home,” said Henry’s mother.

“All right—if a bear doesn’t catch us,” said Henry.

Exploring is hard work. It makes one hungry. It can be a little alarming if one does seem to see a bear. And sometimes, although explorers do not get lost, they are not quite sure which way to go. All of which makes exploring what it is and makes Henry’s exploring worth reading about.

All the sprinkles he snitches,
it’s his Christmas fun,
but without sprinkles
the baking cannot be done!

The villagers panic,
but says Little Nat,
“I’ll track down the
Snitcher wherever he’s at!”

Will Nat find the Snitcher?
Will the Snitcher relent?
Will the cookies be baked?
Will the Snitcher repent?

Will Nat lose the trail?
Will he fall through the ice?
If Nat finds the Snitcher,
will the Snitcher be nice?

These questions are answered
for all to enjoy!

Jack Zulu and the Waylander’s Key is an enchanting adventure in the tradition of Tolkien and Lewis, as well as Spielberg and Lucas. But this fantastical journey launches in rural West Virginia in the eighties, with a half-Appalachian, half-African kid trying to escape the town he sees defining his small, sad life. Jack discovers a gate hiding a city between twelve realms, and finds out where he truly belongs in a surprising, satisfying adventure.

Other Titles by Author:

 

S.D. Smith is the best husband Gina Smith has so far had and father to four Smithereens who are still young enough to appreciate what passes for his wit and wisdom. Sam is a West Virginia native, a sometime sojourner in southern Africa and the Caribbean, and current resident of his house.

J.C. Smith is a sixteen-year old student, author, screenwriter, musician, and visual artist. When he’s not creating and collaborating on stories, Josiah enjoys soccer, music, and the study and practice of filmmaking. He lives in Grandview, West Virginia, with his parents and three siblings.

Our goal for math in the primary grades is the mastery of basic facts. One of the most effective ways to help students achieve mastery is simply to practice.

With daily timed drills, Memoria Math Challenge is designed to give students that math practice and also to help the teacher measure students’ immediate recall. We start with addition, subtraction, and number dictation in kindergarten, and ramp up to 200 daily problems by the end of first grade.

If students are able to master their math facts in the primary years, they can devote more time to complex math operations in grammar school and upper school.

Level A focuses on writing numbers, counting, and addition and subtraction facts up to seven
Level B focuses on addition and subtraction facts up to 10
Level C focuses on addition and subtraction facts up to 18
