From the sultan of silly comes a comical, kid-friendly guide to avoiding naughty behavior. The Toy Hog. The Blabbermouth. The Food Face, the Belcher, and (shudder) the Nose Picker. They're all here, and more - a veritable rogues' gallery of the rudest, crudest, meanest manners found wherever children slurp, grab, desert the table, or cut in line. With his trademark retro artwork and hilarious running commentary, Stoo Hample teaches children good manners by example - of what not to do - and bolsters his case with a final broad hint that the reader who fails to take heed may soon be the star of a book just like this one.

A collection of silliness, both verbal and visual.

A collection of questioning, serious, reverent, and humorous letters which children have written to God.

Inspired by the international bestseller of the same name, Children's Letters To God is a musical that follows the lives of five young friends as they voice beliefs, desires, questions and doubts common to all people but most disarmingly expressed by children. Sixteen tuneful songs and assorted scenes (some based on actual letters) explore timeless issues such as sibling rivalry, divorce, holidays, loss of a beloved pet, the trials of being unathletic and first love. This entertaining show carries a universal message which crosses the boundaries of age, geography, and religion. As in the best-selling book, the musical is not specifically religious in nature. It's about kids and various events in their lives that lead them to ask a lot of questions -- some funny, some serious, some surprising.

Whether standing, sitting, kneeling, or being swung overhead, kisses are good however they are received, in a charming tale about a mother's love with rhyming text and full-color illustrations for preschoolers.

By overwhelming popular demand, Stoo Hample’s 1961 classic features a reissue of the recording that inspired a generation of gigglers. "I am silly, You are silly, All of us are silly, Willy." And everything in The Silly Book and The Silly Record is the silly-willynilliest! There are songy sills (oops!) —silly songs, silly stories, silly poems, silly secrets, silly things to do, a silly good-night, and even silly nothings. Anyone who reads this book — and hears this CD — will laugh like anything, or else turn into a bathtub. First published almost fifty years ago, when it became an uproariously silly success, The Silly Book and its companion, The Silly Record, are guaranteed to cause children (and nostalgic adults) to giggle like gigglecopters, roll on the floor, and cheer "Boodleheimer, Boodleheimer" (CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!).

H-O-T spells cold. D-O-G spells cat. 2 and 2 are 5. Now what do you think of that? Silly, isn't it? Well, this book is full of silly stuff like that: silly songs and stories, silly names and questions, silly recipes and clothes, silly-willy things to say...When you read it, you'll laugh like anything. You'll giggle like a gigglecopter. You might even turn into a bathtub. Now, wouldn't that be silly?
