Big or Little?

by Kathy Stinson

Published 1 March 1983

This wonderful story is about a young boy and the times he feels little and the times he feels big.

Both the text and full color illustrations are presented with warmth and sensitivity and capture the world of the small child.

"Stinson's text has a simple and very pleasing rhythm. Lewis' illustrations show a thoughtful and serious little boy working out his place in the world." - "Books in Canada"


The Bare Naked Book

by Kathy Stinson

Published 1 March 1988
Twenty years old and still going strong, The Bare Naked Book remains a favorite family introduction to the human body. There is nothing more ordinary and more special than the human body. After all, everybody has one, and for all the parts that are the same each comes in a different shape and size. The Bare Naked Book joyfully celebrates this wonderful ordinariness with a matter-of-fact introduction for toddlers to the parts of the body. From hair (dripping, straight, curly, and tangled) to toes (stamping, ticklish, skinny, and squishy) and the private bits in between, Kathy Stinson's playfully simple prose identifies the parts of the body at rest and in motion. Meanwhile, the friendly realism of Heather Collins's illustrations offers a variety of body types in familiar environments, from the bathroom to the beach.
