Uncle Wiggily and Old Mother Hubbard

By: Howard R. Garis

Out in the woods lives a happy rabbit gentleman named Uncle Wiggily Longears. As fond of fun as a kitten, he goes out to play whenever the young ones come visiting. One chilly, wintry day he leaves his cozy bungalow and puts on his mittens to go for a ride in his wonderful airship -- and once aloft meets with a big surprise: for he sees a great white gander flying toward him -- with Mother Goose riding on back Uncle Wiggily faces a host of new adventures -- and finds a wealth of new friends to enjoy them with. Little Bo Peep, Jack Horner, Simple Simon, Miss Muffett, and Old King Cole are just a few of the nursery-rhyme characters the happy rabbit gentleman is to meet

Uncle Wiggily's Travels

By: Howard R. Garis,Richard S. Hartmetz

Uncle Wiggily Longears is the central character in a series of nearly 18,000 children's stories, all written by Howard R. Garis, beginning in 1910. The stories began as a serial in the Newark News, with a new story appearing six days a week for thirty-seven years. The elderly rabbit gentleman relies on a red, white, and blue, barber-shop pole, walking stick due to his rheumatism. He lives with a muskrat house-keeper named Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy and frequently gets into adventures with his other animal friends. The character also spawned picture books, comic books, toys, board games and many other collectibles. Unfortunately, most of the books have been out of print for many years. Starry Night Publishing has opted to begin reprinting some of the Uncle Wiggily stories, to share them with future generations. This is the second book in the series, complete with all thirty-one original stories.

Curlytops at Uncle Frank's Ranch

Who are the Curlytops? Why, Teddy and Janet Martin, of course! These children had the curliest curly hair that ever grew. William Martin, their little brother, didn't have curly hair. William's nickname was "Trouble." You'll see why when you read this book. The train puffed all the way to Rockville. "All out for Rockville!" joked Daddy Martin. "Hurray!" cried Teddy. "Here we are!" "And I see Uncle Frank!" exclaimed Janet. Out piled the Curlytops, and into the arms of Uncle Frank they rushed. "Well, well!" cried Uncle Frank, "Pile into the wagon and well get right out to Circle O Ranch." "Where's that?" asked Teddy. "Why, that's the name of my ranch," said Uncle Frank. "See, there's the sign of it," and he pointed to the flank of one of the small horses, or ponies, hitched to his wagon.
