About this title

About the Author

Roth, a former kindergarten teacher, writes full time.

Reeve Lindbergh, daughter of aviator Charles Lindbergh and poet Anne Morrow Lindbergh, first learned about Bessie Coleman in 1986, the 60th anniversary of her father's famous flight. ""Bessie was an incredibly brave person who was hardly noticed, while my parents got so much publicity it was difficult for them to live their normal lives. I saw a crazy imbalance and wanted to try to set things right."" Reeve Lindbergh lives in Vermont.
Pamela Paparone observes that NOBODY OWNS THE SKY is ""about making dreams come true. My own dream has always been to be a children's book illustrator. In fact, I was ten years old when I created my first children's book. I dedicated it to Johnny Cash."" Pamela Paparone lives in Pennsylvania.

Synopsis

An upside-down, turn-around bathtime counting book. See ten dirty pigs scrub, rinse and splash away all the accumulated grime of their busy day. Then turn the book upside down and back to front to see ten clean pigs head outside to get dirty all over again. The book can be started from either end, counting numbers one to ten each way, and the cheerful heroes get clean and dirty with equal gusto.
