With one of the most well known and lovely opening sentences in all of children's literature (In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines lived twelve little girls in two straight lines), MADELINE is an unforgettable picture book about a truly unforgettable character. This story, the first in a series of books about Madeline, introduces readers to life at the French boarding school run by a kindly nun named Miss Clavel. Although she is dedicated to all her students, Miss Clavel must pay special attention to the activities of her youngest charge, a feisty girl named Madeline. Here Madeline faces an emergency visit to the hospital to have her appendix removed. Color paintings, which depict such Parisian landmarks as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, and the Luxembourg Gardens, accompany the rhyming text. MADELINE is a 1940 Caldecott Honor Book.

As with last year's pop-up version of Beatrix Potter's Two Bad Mice," this book seems born to the form. A spread showing ""the old house in Paris'' has lift-open windows so that the ""twelve little girls in two straight lines'' can be viewed; Madeline leans forward to ""pooh-pooh'' the zoo tiger and teeters on the wall ""to frighten Miss Clavel.'' When Miss Clavel turns on her light", readers can pull the tab and banish the darkness. And Madeline's hospital stay, with movable doll carriage and a tossable ball, looks enviable indeed. With all the bustling in these pages and tabs to tug, the book will immerse both old fans and new readers in the joys of knowing Madeline. Ages 3-8. (September) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC.
