Bonny Becker

Clarion Books, 2006

The world's most charming lizard
Congratulations to Bonny Becker for bringing us her menagerie of characters. They take us beyond the question of `what is art' into the larger theme: the passion of self-expression. We follow Holbrook on his quest as he leaves behind the comforts (?!) of Rattler's Bend ...

Just a Minute

Bonny Becker

Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing, 2003

A Timeless Tale!
I loved this book! I think everyone can relate to this wait-y subject. Have you ever had to wait? For your mom? Dad? At the doctor's office? For the kids? Do you ever feel as if you can't wait one more minute?! Well, the same goes for Johnny. As he waits for his ...

The Christmas Crocodile

Bonny Becker

Aladdin, 2001

The perfect Christmas present!

Tickly Prickly (Growing Tree)

Bonny Becker

HarperFestival, 1999

A fun whimsical rhyming book. My daughter loved it!
Mrs. Becker has a way with words. Fun and lively, the words present the animals and the world around us. For instance, she nails what a lamb feels like with, "CRINKLY CURLS. WOOLLY WHIRLS." A true delight, my only criticism is that the book made my daughter and I ...
