90's children's book

I am looking for a book I would imagine would have been published between 90-95. In it, the main male character had an accident to do with a firework and lost his arm. While this may seem distressing, the tone of the book was fairly humorous as it is revealed that He is now able to transform the missing arm into whatever He desires. For example, I recall him turning it into sausages and later Maracas in order to conceal the fact that it is missing. There was also a point where He used it as balloons in order to distribute leaflets/tickets of some kind over his town. Any help would be appreciated as my own searches have been fruitless. Many thanks.

Bears Play House

I don't remember the name of the book, but it was a big boook in length and width size. Maybe two feet by one foot when closed. On the front it had two little bears about two inches tall tied to the cover. One was female, the other male. The female had a bow on her head, and I'm fairly certain it was purple. When you opened the book it was a huge popup that was a house. It had different sections, and was basically like a paper doll house for the bears. There was writing on the wall of each room for a story, and you could make the bears do what the story said, or whatever you wanted in the house. I remember play for hours with this when me and my brother were younger. I am as of now sixteen, and I remember being maybe around four or five playing with this.

Do you know the name and author of this?

Children's Book

Looking for a children's book from the mid-60's or early '70's depicting a boy that was going to have a big day. Before his big day started, he ate a huge breakfast consisting of piles of pancakes. There are black and white photos of him doing things throughout the day. Slides, a water bucket, the big breakfast. Freckled-faced kid but the title completely escapes me. Thanks

Pixies of some sort

When I was younger, in kindergarten or something, I remember a series my teacher read to us almost every day. Unfortunately I can only remember that it's about a kid who is trying to find pixies or fairies that cause havoc in town, the one book I remember is when the hero of the story (possibly a girl) goes into a pet store s fish isle to catch a water pixie/sprite/fairy.
I'm not even sure if it's a real book, but I would be grateful for any help in tracking the series down

model boat building

I am looking for a cloth covered book for boys with plans and instructions for building model boats, both motorized and sail. It was copyrighted in the 1920's or 30's and the last section had plans for building a real sail boat about 12 feet in length. The book came from the library but they no longer have it or any reference to it. There was a second book at the library "Model Boat Building for Boys" which I have located and purchased but the first one (the one I am most interested in) has alluded me. I do not remember the author or the title. Any help is appreciated.

Boy and box, fiction, blue and pink cover

I am looking for a book I once read in the 5th or 6th grade. It was about a boy who had some kind of tall box or something and when he went into it he went into some sort of world filled with different characters and if I remember correctly he made friends in the different dimensions. It had a prodominately blue and pink cover (it was paper back), and the picture on the front wasnt detailed entirely. Please, help me. I remember I fell in love with this book but cannot remember the name of it.

Looking for childrens book

I am looking for a book that I remember as a child. it was about a little boy who says "silly cows" and everything made of leather disappears and milk ans meat too. Then he says "silly trees" and all things relating to trees disappear etc.

Looking for childrens hard paper/page book

I'm pretty sure the book I'm looking for is from the late 60's to mid 70's. It's a hard paper/page book, approximately 12"H x 8"W, with approximately 6-8 pages and is no more than 1/2 inch thick. This book was more of a picture book. I think it might have had a short sentence on each page. If memory serves me right, It had a picture of a teddy bear on each page, and each one was in a car, motorcycle or boat etc...The pages were very shiny and very colourful. The pictures stood out really well. I think the cover had a lot of red in it, not too sure though, for some reason the colour red keeps coming to mind. I'd appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you Debbie. :)

Bighorn

I read this book around 1985, it was out of our towns public library. It was about a big horn mountain goat whose horns grew so big he could use them as skis, and he did. I remember loving the illustrations. Don't remember the name. Would love to get a copy of this book.

Lost Childhood

Hi

I am trying to track down a book I remember reading as a child (in the 80s) although I think this book might have been older, it certainly had the feel of an Enid Blyton about it.

Here's what I remember: It was a collection of stories and the one I read over and over was about a greedy boy who when eats a cake/pudding even though his mother/auntie has told him not to. He runs away, into the forest, stumbles across a magical land where he is able to eat as much as he wants. Something bad might happen - I can't quite recall. He eventually gets home having learnt his lesson, apologises and all is forgiven.

Any ideas?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Children's novel about climbing on a snow mountain

I can't remember the title of this book but I read it during the early 2000's in middle school and it was about some people going up a mountain during the snow. The main character was a girl/woman and I remember the party finding a man's dead body preserved in the snow. I think the man was related to one of the people, like he was a family member, friend, fiance, love interest, I'm just not sure. I can't be sure but I vaguely remember the cover of the book being white and/or with shades of blue. The book was likely published in 2003 or before that. the most important thing I remember is that they found a man's body preserved in the snow. The novel was fiction.

Looking for 2 children's books from my primary school years

I went to Gosford Park Primary School in Coventry, UK and I am looking for the following books that I read at this school.

The first was called something like Pronto and I read it around 1978-79 time. It was a character called Pronto (or something similar) which was skinny and had frizzy hair. It was a picture book with text accompanying the pictures.

The second was apart of a series of books which told the story of a boy who was living in a street full of ghostly happenings. The boy had befriended a grey cat with a long face and each book told the developing story of this boy and his interaction with the ghosts living in this area. The book was thin and was picture based as it accompanied the text on each page. The pictures were in colour. This would have been around 1980-1981 time.

Childhood Book 50s or 60s

I'm looking for a fairy tale book that I had as a young child. I can't remember any of the stories, but I vividly remember the illustrations on the inside of the front and back covers. They were absolutely breathtaking. They were of a dark, lush green forest and a boy and girl were walking through path in it. There were fairies and pixies flitting around and some hiding in the foliage. I would spend hours staring at those pictures. The forest looked mysterious and almost foreboding. But it was exciting to imagine and wonder about the fairies and pixies. Does anyone have any idea which book this is? Sorry I can't give more details, but I was very young and I don't believe I could even read at that age. The captivating illustrations stayed with me all these years. I would love to see them again. Any suggestions on the title of this book would be most appreciated. :)

book about a girl that can hear thoughts

I am looking for a book about a girl - I think her name is Jenny - who can hear what people are thinking. Seems like it might be titled "Jenny's Wonderful Ear" or something similar. Would have been published prior to 1956.

Loooking for old book about a colt that tries to change colors

I'm looking for an old picture book I had as a child. It had been my mother's so it probably dates from the late 1940's to the early 1950's. I thought the title was "A horse of a different color", but none of the books I can find with that title are it.
The book is a about a young horse that wants to be different color. He rubs on the grass to try and turn green. then stands in a sunset, thinking he'll get the colors. Eventually he rubs against a freshley painted barn.
If I remember correctly the illustrations are bw. with splashes of red.

Do Come To Lunch

I am looking for a children's story from the mid to late 1970s that I read as a child. I believe the title was "Do Come To Lunch". It was about a Monkey and a Snake who were neighbors. I don't recall what the problem was between the two but the Snake invited the Monkey to lunch and served lunch in a dish that they Monkey could not access with his large paws. In turn, the Monkey invited the Snake to lunch and served lunch in a dish that the Snake could not access. This story was in a book series that I read as a 1st and/or 2nd grader. I do not recall the series of books but am desperate to find that series. Other stories that I recall from that time period were: "Three Billy Goats Gruff", "Ramona, the Brave", "Freckle Juice" and the "Amelia Bedelia" stories. Any help you provide will be most appreciated.
