This cheerful book illustrates the beloved story of a jolly little teapot who loves to serve.

Join our rambunctious teapot as he gets all steamed up just waiting to share his imaginative adventures with you.

I'M A LITTLE TEAPOT is a book to share with friends and family—after all, isn't that what "Tea-Time" is all about?

An updated version of this classic children's song of a mischievous little dog is now available for another generation to enjoy. After being scolded by his young owner, the little dog with his ears cut short and his tail cut long runs away from home. When the little dog's adventures climbing a mountain, surfing in the sea, and riding in a rodeo go awry, the little dog decides to return to the one place he loves best. With a wagging tail and a joyful heart, the little dog is home to stay with the little girl who loves him best.

If asked to list the greatest innovators of modern American poetry, few of us would think to include Jay-Z or Eminem in their number. And yet hip hop is the source of some of the most exciting developments in verse today. The media uproar in response to its controversial lyrical content has obscured hip hop's revolution of poetic craft and experience: Only in rap music can the beat of a song render poetic meter audible, allowing an MC's wordplay to move a club-full of eager listeners. Examining rap history's most memorable lyricists and their inimitable techniques, literary scholar Adam Bradley argues that we must understand rap as poetry or miss the vanguard of poetry today. Book of Rhymes explores America's least understood poets, unpacking their surprisingly complex craft, and according rap poetry the respect it deserves.
