by Kim Norman
Illustrated by Liza Woodruff
Sterling Publishing, 2010
Author Kim Norman and illustrator Liza Woodruff have whipped up a rollicking, jolly, snow-filled adventure!
In the land of the midnight sun, all the animals are having fun speeding down the hill on Caribou’s sled. But as they go faster and faster, Seal, Hare, Walrus, and the others all fall off…until just the caribou’s left, only and lonely. Now, a reindeer likes flying—but never alone, so…
one through ten,
all leap on again!
An ideal picture book for reading—and singing along with—over and over.

...THIS IS WHY.
There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a child enjoying one of my books. I adored reading books to my own children, when they were little. Now I get a lot of satisfaction watching a new generation of children enjoy MY books. What a thrill!
Why do I write children’s books?
Celebrate the imagination—and the love between father and son—with a fun, rhyming, and totally original picture book. On a hot summer’s day, a young boy playfully sets out on a “crocodaddy hunt” in the lake. Following the creature’s shadow, dark and wet, he’s soon taking a wild ride on the grinning croc’s back. And when they leave the water, something wonderful happens: Crocodaddy transforms into…just DADDY.
