Greetings!
I have very little info about this book, but perhaps someone can identify
it--A patron is looking for a book about a boy named Henry who lives in a
place called Grover's Corner. Any ideas?? (It's not "Our
Town."
TIA!

Hi Pubyacer's!
A patron is requesting a children's book about a father and son who
build a cabin in the woods. They feed the animals and the animals
accept the man and boy so they decide to stay there. That's really all
I have. Does anyone know the title of this story? Also, I have a
patron who would like to buy a copy of "Oh Were They Ever Happy"
by
Peter Spier. Unfortunately, this wonderful book is out of print.
I have been unsuccessful in finding a copy in print. Any help with both
inquiries is greatly appreciated. Please respond to me at
r_grimmer@yahoo.com. Thanks!
Becky Grimmer/Lake Co. Public Library,
Cedar Lake Branch.

Seasons greetings to all,
I remember a picture book about New Year
celebration/superstitions/traditions all around the world. I can't
remember
the title or the author. I think a bunch of different illustrators depicted
what people in different countries do at 11:59 on New Years Eve. Eric Carle
stands out, but I'm not sure.
Thanks.
Wanda
