Edward Gorey books for kids and adults

Celebrate Edward Gorey's centennial year: Two collaborations with Rhoda Levine for ages 3–7 along with four Gorey books for older readers, on sale for three days only THREE LADIES BESIDE THE SEA Rhoda Levine Drawings by Edward Gorey Wickedly funny and delightfully sad, Three Ladies Beside the Sea is a tale of love found, love lost, and love never-ending. Edward Gorey’s off-kilter Edwardian maidens are the perfect accompaniment to Rhoda Levine’s lilting rhymes. “This is, of course, a must for the many Edward Gorey fans of all ages, and a chance to discover the fine poetry of Rhoda Levine. I read this one to my five-year-old grand-daughter because it is just long enough to be engaging and just short enough to be wiggle-proof, and just wise enough to set a young imagination free as a bird.” —Sherman Yellen, The Huffington Post BUY THE BOOK   HE WAS THERE FROM THE DAY WE MOVED IN Rhoda Levine Drawings by Edward Gorey The naming of dogs can be a tricky business, as Ogdon and his big brother discover in this charming collaboration between Rhoda Levine and Edward Gorey. You see, before Ogdon and his family moved to a new house, no one mentioned the big shaggy sheep dog in the backyard, but there he was, just sitting and waiting, imperturbable as can be. Waiting for what? Ogdon wonders. Dinner? A lollipop? A stray cat? Someone to talk to? No, what the dog wants is a name. And not just any name, but the right name. And with a little patience, and a lot of persistence, Ogdon and his brother will figure it out.
