With Yarrow’s and Lipton’s blessing, Puff, Jackie Paper, and the land of Honalee finally live on the page. The exquisite package includes a cloth case with a tipped-in illustration and an embossed jacket with foil touches, as well as an exclusive CD featuring not only Puff, but several other songs performed by Yarrow, his daughter Bethany, and cellist Rufus Cappadocia. This is a publishing event sure to attract broad attention and please Puff’s many fans.In richly-hued paintings of the deepest sea blues and greens, Puff and his friend Jackie Paper frolic in the land of Honalee—traveling in a fantastic boat with billowed sails, climbing red castle stairs onto a balcony to meet with noble kings and princes, and watching pirate ships lower their flags for the roaring dragon. Artist Eric Puybaret has brought an entire magical world into being with enthralling landscapes, color, and characters. And everyone will love the way the art cleverly turns the song’s end, which at first seemed so sad, into a surprising and joyful moment.Best of all—this is only the first of many more collaborations with Peter Yarrow to come!

Juanita
Leo Politi - 1948
Parents and children—and their children's children—have grown up reading his stories. Libraries, parks, and schools have been named in his honor; in 2008, on what would have been his one hundredth birthday, there were celebrations throughout the state. Many of Leo Politi's books have been out of print for years, and so Getty Publications is proud to reprint four of his most popular titles, including the Caldecott Medal-winning Song of the Swallows, first published in 1948. Song of the Swallows is the story of a little boy who's waiting for the once-a-year arrival of the swallows in San Juan Capistrano. Pedro: The Angel of Olvera Street, winner of a Caldecott Honor, is a Christmas story that takes place at that famous Los Angeles address, which is also the setting for Juanita, a fable about the annual blessing of the animals at Easter. The four-footed hero of Emmet is a plucky dog who saves his Los Angeles neighborhood from a fire. These four titles present the best of Leo Politi: the gentle humor and sense of magic that have made his books beloved by generations of readers in California and around the world.
