Good Night, Gorilla
by Peggy Rathmann
It's late at night, so you really can't blame the zookeeper. But he should pay more attention, because as he makes his final rounds before locking up for the night, he doesn't realize that the gorilla is following him, letting all the animals out of their cages. Will his wife be able to set things right by the end? Maybe... but she's pretty tired also.

Corduroy
by Don Freeman (Illustrator)
Every child who meets him loves Corduroy - the toy bear who can't wait to be taken home from the department store by some little boy or girl. Maybe he'd have better luck getting bought if it wasn't for the missing button on his suspenders... One of the world's most beloved children's books. And deservedly so.
