Beginning her career as a teacher, Danziger taught at the junior high, high school, college levels. She received her Masters Degree in reading and during that time she wrote her first bestselling novel, <b>The Cat Ate My Gymsuit<\/b>. She returned to teaching, but the success of her book encouraged her to become a full-time writer. It was non-stop for Danziger since then. Among her titles are: the enormously popular <b>Amber Brown<\/b> books as well as <b>Remember Me To Harold Square<\/b>, <b>The Divorce Express<\/b>, and <b>Can You Sue Your Parents For Malpractice?<\/b><p> Danziger received numerous honors, including: Parent's Choice Awards, International Reading Association - Children's Book Council Awards, a IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award and many nominations for state reading and library association awards. <p>Known as a flamboyantly funny and deeply honest writer and speaker, Paula Danziger knew how to relate to young readers at their level. She was vital, funny, and compassionate. She knew how kids felt, what made them laugh, what they wore, collected, read, and played with. From collecting novelty toys that would make any teacher cringe, to wearing jangly earrings, funky glasses and shoes covered with beads and sequins, Paula Danziger had a direct line into kids' hearts and funnybones. She will be missed always.<br><br><br>In Paula's memory, The Amber Brown Fund has been established to bring authors and illustrators to schools and libraries which otherwise could not afford them.

She had a collar, and a name tag, which meant she had an owner. But for the life of her, Penelope could not find the Lady to whom she belonged.<br> &#160;<br> If you have ever been to Puggleton Park, then you know it&rsquo;s a <i>lovely<\/i> place right in the center of London. There are acres of grass to picnic upon, beds of bluebells to sniff, and a bubbling brook from which to drink. If you stand in just the right spot, you can even catch a glimpse of Buckingham Palace looking ever so much like a tall, frosted wedding cake.<br> &#160;<br> Everyone in the city loved to visit Puggleton Park&mdash;especially Penelope. A kindly pup just shy of eleven months old, she was fond of gnawing bones, playing fetch, and eating dog biscuits. She was also well known for kissing humans she especially liked, and her manner was gentle, although she was rather untrained. This was not Penelope&rsquo;s fault, of course, but the fault of her Lady&rsquo;s&mdash;a caring woman who simply could not help spoiling her dog.<br> &#160;<br> On the day Penelope got lost, she and her Lady had been having a <i>most<\/i> splendid time. They played fetch near a grove of old oak trees, picked bluebells from the field, cooled their feet in the bubbling brook, and finally found the perfect spot for a well-deserved picnic.<br> &#160;<br> While her dear Lady ate raspberry tarts, which were her favorite, Penelope lay at her feet, chewing the dog biscuit she always got as a special treat. Feeling satisfied, Penelope gazed at two nearby fox terriers who were rolling over one another in a pretend battle that was growing most energetic indeed.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Come play with us!&rdquo; one of the terriers said during a brief pause in the match.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;No, thank you,&rdquo; Penelope said, rolling over with a yawn. The sun was warming her belly, you see, and it made her drowsy. <i>Besides, I prefer the company of my Lady to any other,<\/i> Penelope thought, just as her owner reached over to give her a scratch and a pat. <i>There is no reason to move.<\/i><br> &#160;<br> Suddenly, something caught her eye.<br> &#160;<br> Oh, but it was the most <i>dreadful<\/i> squirrel.<br> &#160;<br> I should say now that Penelope did not care for squirrels in general, but this one was more dreadful than most, with his ratty tail, shifty eyes, and huge buckteeth. She watched in dismay as he darted up to her Lady&rsquo;s picnic basket, plucked up a raspberry tart, and ran.<br> &#160;<br> But this simply would not do! So, like any good pug defending her Lady&rsquo;s property, Penelope barked, &ldquo;Stop, thief!&rdquo; and raced after her prey.<br> &#160;<br> And what a race it was!<br> &#160;<br> Penelope chased Dreadful Squirrel past the playing puppies, through the field of bluebells, and over the bubbling brook. They raced past the old oak trees and dashed across a green meadow, zigzagging this way and that. She <i>almost<\/i> caught him near Swan Pond, his tail a mere acorn&rsquo;s length away from her snapping jaws, but at the last moment, Dreadful Squirrel darted up a tree with a taunting &ldquo;Pleased to make your acquaintance!&rdquo; And just like that, he&mdash;and the raspberry tart&mdash;were gone.<br> &#160;<br> Oh, but Penelope was <i>furious<\/i>, for she truly hated to lose. However, she was also wise enough to know when it was time to accept defeat and go back the way she came.<br> &#160;<br> She looked to the right and saw nothing but trees. She looked to the left and saw nothing but grass. That was when she realized she was lost. Not a little bit lost, mind you, <i>a lot<\/i> bit lost.<br> &#160;<br> A cloud passed over the sun, and suddenly the park loomed large and threatening. Fear began to pump in Penelope&rsquo;s veins, and worry struck her brain like lightning. There was a loud clap of thunder overhead, and she did a <i>most<\/i> unfortunate thing: She started to run blindly forward in the first direction her little legs could take her!<br> &#160;<br> She ran, and she ran, and she <i>ran<\/i>. The question, of course, is whether Penelope was running toward her Lady, but I&rsquo;m afraid she was not.<br> &#160;<br> <i>You must get a hold of yourself, Penelope!<\/i> she thought as she stopped to catch her breath. After a few moments, she was calm, and put her nose to the ground to try to find a way back. But to her dismay, her trail went thisaway then thataway, then <i>every<\/i> which way.<br> &#160;<br> As the skies darkened, Penelope&rsquo;s friend Moon rose high in the sky. Tired and hungry, she realized she would not find her Lady that night. <i>There is nothing worse than to want something so desperately,<\/i> she thought, <i>only to find one has not the energy to seek it.<\/i><br> &#160;<br> She spied a nearby park bench and decided it would have to serve as her shelter for the night. So she curled up, feeling lonely, vexed, terrified&mdash;and very hungry indeed!<br> &#160;<br> Penelope&rsquo;s last thought as she drifted off to sleep was that she would surely find her Lady the next day. For anything else to happen would be too horrible! And horrible things didn&rsquo;t happen to pugs. They simply <i>didn&rsquo;t<\/i>. Yet in the back of her mind a thought wiggled: <i>But what if they do?<\/i><br><br><b>Chapter Two<\/b><br><br> When Penelope awoke, a heavy rain had fallen in the night, and the ground was soggy. She took a sniff of dirt and that&rsquo;s when she realized that any chance of finding the trail back to her Lady had been washed away.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Well, what is it we have here?&rdquo; asked a duck who was on a morning stroll with her ducklings. &ldquo;A pug on her own in the park? I have never seen the like!&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;And I do not like to be the first,&rdquo; said Penelope. &ldquo;But, you see, I&rsquo;ve lost my Lady. Perhaps you&rsquo;ve seen her?&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;How would I know?&rdquo; said the duck. &ldquo;Since I&rsquo;ve never seen <i>you<\/i>?&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> Penelope introduced herself and proceeded to describe her Lady. She was very tall (of course, to a pug, all humans are) and had a delightful scent that reminded Penelope of fresh red apples.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;I&rsquo;m afraid I&rsquo;ve seen no such human,&rdquo; said the duck. &ldquo;Although I only pay attention to the humans who throw bread in Swan Pond, and even then I barely notice them.&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;It could be worse, I suppose,&rdquo; said Penelope.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Why do you say that?&rdquo; asked the duck.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Because I&rsquo;m certain my Lady is looking for me.&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;But what if she isn&rsquo;t?&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Isn&rsquo;t what?&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Isn&rsquo;t looking for you?&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> Penelope paused at this frightful thought, then quickly put it out of her mind.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;She is,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;She simply must be.&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;I wouldn&rsquo;t know about such things,&rdquo; said the duck, as wisps of clouds floated across the sky like cotton candy. &ldquo;But if you can&rsquo;t find <i>your<\/i> Lady, then I&rsquo;m afraid you will become a <i>lone<\/i>.&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;What is a lone?&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;A lone is a lost dog who has no Lady.&rdquo;<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;But I don&rsquo;t want to be a lone,&rdquo; said Penelope.<br> &#160;<br> &ldquo;Who would?&rdquo; said the duck. She turned and walked away, instructing her ducklings to follow, for they had lingered far too long.<br> &#160;<br> For the rest of the day, Penelope searched for her Lady to no avail. Then she searched the next day, and the day after that, and even more days after <i>that<\/i>. But weeks passed, and Penelope could not find her Lady, nor did her Lady find her.<br> &#160;<br> Sometimes Penelope would see ladies and gentlemen walking their dogs, and she&rsquo;d call out, &ldquo;Have you seen my Lady?&rdquo; But neither hound nor poodle had seen her anywhere.<br> &#160;<br> Penelope realized she simply had to accept the truth: She <i>was<\/i> a lone.","textExcerptCopyright":" Copyright &#169; 2024 by Deanna Kizis; Illustrated by Hannah Peck","teachersGuide":null,"keynote":"Penelope is a pleasant little pug who has quite the quandary: All she can remember is that she lost her Lady in the park while chasing the most dreadful squirrel.

No matter where we are, music brings us closer to home. <b>Don't miss the Spanish-language edition of this book, <i>Ang&eacute;lica y la g&uuml;ira.<\/i><\/b>","bonusFeature":null,"hasCoverImage":true,"frontlistiestSeq":1,"cartonQuantity":24,"salesRestriction":{"code":"00","description":"World"},"flags":["READER_REWARDS","INSIGHT"],"dimensions":{"length":"9.310","width":"11.380","depth":"0.400","grossWeight":"17.550"},"grade":{"code":"0K03","description":"Grades K-3"},"additionalText":{"commonReadsAbout":null,"acmartFlap":null,"productFeature":null},"additionalReadingLevels":{"Lexile":"AD820L","Fountas\/Pinnell":null},"additionalPromoImages":{"2":[{"copyright":null,"imagename":"9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_1.jpg","photocredit":null,"photocaption":null,"photodate":null,"releasedB2B":"2023-10-30","releasedB2C":"2023-10-30","promoImageUrl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/promo_image\/9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_1.jpg"},{"copyright":null,"imagename":"9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_2.jpg","photocredit":null,"photocaption":null,"photodate":null,"releasedB2B":"2023-10-30","releasedB2C":"2023-10-30","promoImageUrl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/promo_image\/9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_2.jpg"},{"copyright":null,"imagename":"9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_3.jpg","photocredit":null,"photocaption":null,"photodate":null,"releasedB2B":"2023-10-30","releasedB2C":"2023-10-30","promoImageUrl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/promo_image\/9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_3.jpg"},{"copyright":null,"imagename":"9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_4.jpg","photocredit":null,"photocaption":null,"photodate":null,"releasedB2B":"2023-10-30","releasedB2C":"2023-10-30","promoImageUrl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/promo_image\/9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_4.jpg"},{"copyright":null,"imagename":"9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_5.jpg","photocredit":null,"photocaption":null,"photodate":null,"releasedB2B":"2023-10-30","releasedB2C":"2023-10-30","promoImageUrl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/promo_image\/9780593406014_9780593406014_Interior_5.jpg"}]},"productLine":"47S","productType":"7SE","illustPhoto":"FULL-COLOR ILLUSTRATIONS","asin":"059340601X","customSubjectCategory":null,"coverUpdatedOn":"2023-10-13","boxComponentCt":0,"focDate":null,"cataDate":null,"itemTypeCode":null,"rcatDate":null,"reisFocDate":null,"reisCataDate":null,"orderReq":0,"overUpc":null,"additionalSeriesInfo":null,"mediaRating":null,"mediaRatingDesc":null,"coverVariantDesc":null,"catalogs":[],"familyCoverVariantFlag":null,"otherFields":{},"vendorIds":{"Amazon":"059340601X"},"hasBestseller":false,"asset_types":{},"isbnStr":"9780593406014","_embeds":null,"_links":[{"rel":"icon","href":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/cover\/9780593406014","method":"GET","parameters":null}]},"subtitle":null,"aboutTheBook":"<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A young girl harnesses the power of music to bridge the distance between the Dominican Republic and Washington Heights in this jubilant picture book debut by Angie Cruz. <\/span>","imgurl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/cover\/9780593406014","contrib_author":["Angie Cruz"],"contrib_illustrator":["Luz Batista"],"contrib_editor":[],"contrib_narrator":[],"totalPages":40,"ageRange":{"description":"5-8 years"},"educationGradeRange":{"description":"Grades K-3"},"book_praise":"<b>Praise for <i>Ang&eacute;lica and la G&uuml;ira<\/i> by Angie Cruz; illustrated by Luz Batista:<br><br>&#9733; <\/b>&ldquo;This delightful and meaningful read offers young readers a <b>powerful<\/b> glimpse into cultural identity, family bonds, and the power of music to bring communal joy and connect to one&rsquo;s heritage.&rdquo;<br><i>&mdash;Booklist, <\/i>starred review<br><br><b>&#9733; <\/b>&ldquo;Cruz&rsquo;s lyrical and<b> heartfelt<\/b> words and Batista&rsquo;s warm and emotive illustrations truly encapsulate intergenerational and transnational connections between Dominicans&mdash;aqu&iacute; y all&aacute; (here and there)&hellip; With countless uses and a resonant story, purchase this for all picture book collections.&rdquo; <br> &mdash;<i>School Library Journal<\/i>, starred review<br><br>&ldquo;<b>Heartwarming<\/b> themes of familial love and heritage resonate throughout, and Ang&eacute;lica is a resilient and empathetic protagonist; readers will admire her persistence as she searches for belonging.

But she's not picky. Grownups use that word a lot. Picky. Picky. Picky. It's never a good thing. And it's not fair. Peyton likes dogs and cats, scooters and bikes, pools and beaches. And Peyton likes to try new things. She recently mastered long division in math class and loves to practice the saxophone--as long as her adorable dog Mila doesn't howl! But Peyton is particular when it comes to food. Peyton doesn't like it when two foods touch on her plate. Peyton doesn't like green foods. Or orange foods. Or red foods. Peyton doesn't like foods that are gooey or gummy, sticky or slimy, frosted or flaky. And Peyton most definitely doesn't like chunky or lumpy foods. <br><br>Thanksgiving is our most universal holiday, beloved by adults and children. But Thanksgiving can also be a challenge for young eaters who struggle with new tastes and new experiences. Peyton is the hero of this food lover's tale and she is determined to confront her fear of new foods by finding a Thanksgiving pie she truly likes, even if it's flaky, lumpy, or chunky.","bonusFeature":null,"hasCoverImage":true,"frontlistiestSeq":1,"cartonQuantity":20,"salesRestriction":{"code":"00","description":"World"},"flags":["3PD","INSIGHT"],"dimensions":{"length":"10.440","width":"10.310","depth":"0.420","grossWeight":"19.400"},"grade":{"code":"0P03","description":"Preschool - 3"},"additionalText":{"commonReadsAbout":null,"acmartFlap":null,"productFeature":null},"additionalReadingLevels":{"Lexile":null,"Fountas\/Pinnell":null},"additionalPromoImages":{},"productLine":"E2R","productType":"EYM","illustPhoto":null,"asin":"1948703262","customSubjectCategory":null,"coverUpdatedOn":"2020-07-09","boxComponentCt":0,"focDate":null,"cataDate":null,"itemTypeCode":null,"rcatDate":null,"reisFocDate":null,"reisCataDate":null,"orderReq":0,"overUpc":null,"additionalSeriesInfo":null,"mediaRating":null,"mediaRatingDesc":null,"coverVariantDesc":null,"catalogs":[],"familyCoverVariantFlag":null,"otherFields":{},"vendorIds":{"Amazon":"1948703262"},"hasBestseller":false,"asset_types":{},"isbnStr":"9781948703260","_embeds":null,"_links":[{"rel":"icon","href":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/cover\/9781948703260","method":"GET","parameters":null}]},"subtitle":"A Thanksgiving Celebration","aboutTheBook":"<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This humorous and heart-warming story from America\u2019s Test Kitchen celebrates the love of cooking and helps children overcome their fear of trying new foods (and includes an ATK recipe for the perfect pie). <\/span>","imgurl":"https:\/\/images.penguinrandomhouse.com\/cover\/9781948703260","contrib_author":[],"contrib_illustrator":[],"contrib_editor":["America's Test Kitchen Kids"],"contrib_narrator":[],"totalPages":32,"ageRange":{"description":"4-8 years"},"educationGradeRange":{"description":"Preschool - 3"},"book_praise":"<i>\"Biracial Peyton, who has a Black dad and a white mom, isn&rsquo;t picky when it comes to a lot of things&mdash;she &ldquo;likes dogs and cats, scooters and bikes, pools and beaches,&rdquo; Bishop writes &mdash;but she has preferences surrounding food, especially around colors and textures.
