Stranger in the Woods


This photographic fantasy tells how the furry and feathered friends of the forest respond to a mysterious visitor.  On the national and New York Times best-seller lists during the winter for 5 consecutive years, Stranger in the Woods has warmed the hearts of children ages 1 to 100.  Educators and reading specialists treasure this little book and welcome it into their classrooms. There's even a curriculum guide with loads of fun projects and activities.


Lost in the Woods


Carl and Jean's new children's book weaves a delightful tale with a message: fawns found alone in the woods are rarely lost or abandoned. Newborn fawns spend their first weeks without mom because her scent will attract predators to her babe. She instinctively knows to stay only briefly to nurse and care for her fawn.  He will travel with her when he is older and stronger.


First Snow in the Woods


Readers are taken on a beautiful photographic journey deep into the autumn woods as the animals of the forest get ready for the year’s first winter storm. They hear the cries from the great gray owl who came down from the far north carrying the warning, “Winter is coming early this year! Prepare.”  From the very first page, readers will be fascinated by the exquisite photographs of wildlife amid a background of vibrant autumn reds and golds.  Will the animals be ready for the cold, hard winter to come?
