  • Dear READER, Winter/Spring 2021 SQUARE BOOKS TOP 100 of 2020 to Understate It—2020 Was Not Square Books’ Best Year
    Dear READER, Winter/Spring 2021 SQUARE BOOKS TOP 100 OF 2020 To understate it—2020 was not Square Books’ best year. Like everyone, we struggled—but we are grateful to remain in business, and that all the booksellers here are healthy. When Covid19 arrived, our foot-traffic fell precipitously, and sales with it—2020 second-quarter sales were down 52% from those of the same period in 2019. But our many loyal customers adjusted along with us as we reopened operations when we were more confident of doing business safely. The sales trend improved in the third quarter, and November/December were only slightly down compared to those two months last year. We are immensely grateful to those of you who ordered online or by phone, allowing us to ship, deliver, or hold for curbside pickup, or who waited outside our doors to enter once our visitor count was at capacity. It is only through your abiding support that Square Books remains in business, ending the year down 30% and solid footing to face the continuing challenge of Covid in 2021. And there were some very good books published, of which one hundred bestsellers we’ll mention now. (By the way, we still have signed copies of many of these books; enquire accordingly.) Many books appear on this list every year—old favorites, if you will, including three William Faulkner books: Selected Short Stories (37th on our list) which we often recommend to WF novices, The Sound and the Fury (59) and As I Lay Dying (56), as well as a notably good new biography of Faulkner by Michael Gorra, The Saddest Words: William Faulkner’s Civil War (61).

  • Pinocchio Script
    Ziptales Timeless Tales Based on the classic tale by Carlo Collodi Pinocchio 1 Once upon a time there was a poor carpenter named Geppetto. He had never married, and so had no children. ‘How I wish I had a little boy of my own!” One day, he saw a puppet theatre in the street. The puppets seemed so lifelike. “I will make a child of my own.” 2 He hurried back to his workshop, and set to work immediately. He made the puppet’s head, and the eyes seemed to watch him. He made the puppet’s arms, and they seemed to move. He made the puppet’s legs and feet, and he fancied that they were ready to dance. “I will call you Pinocchio.” 3 Suddenly, the puppet leapt off the bench, and ran away, laughing. “Pinocchio, come back!” Night came, and snow began to fall. Geppetto was still looking. 4 Finally Pinocchio returned to the old man’s workshop, laughing. “It is not so funny, my friend.” “Who are you?” © Ziptales Developing Literacy | Timeless Tales Ziptales Timeless Tales “I am your conscience. And I want to help you.” “Don’t be silly.’ ‘How could you possibly help me?” “By telling you what will happen if you do not learn to behave.” “Go on.” 5 “Boys who disobey their parents come to no good.” “Nonsense, I want to have fun. No one can tell me what to do!” “Do as the old man says, for he loves you. Go to school. Be good. And then one day you may become a real boy.” “Go away!” 6 Then he settled down by the fire, and fell fast asleep.

  • Study Guide Pinocchio
    Study guide Pinocchio A Word from The Director Table of Contents If the story of this little puppet seems timeless, that is because it is about much more than just his nose that grows longer whenever he tells a lie. Pinocchio is one of the most beautiful representations of mankind, with About the Show – Page 1 all its faults and shortcomings but also its most touching and noble aspects. Theatre Conventions – Page 2 Collodi did not want to relate the feats of princes and princesses, rather he decided to tell the life of someone who was born at the very bottom of About the Company – Page 3 the social ladder, at the lowest rung imaginable: that of a “common block of firewood, one of those thick, solid logs that are put on the fire in Before the Show Ideas – winter”. Pinocchio is a story about the growth of a tiny being who has the Page 4 misfortune of being born into a difficult environment and who will learn, through the many hardships of life, to become what he has always Lesson 1: Human Puppet dreamt of becoming: a real boy, a good son, a righteous man. Show - Page 5 And this is a much-needed story in this dark and cynical time wh en Lesson 2: Pinocchio, Part II – descendants of the Fox and the Cat are making headlines on a daily Page 7 basis. We still need Pinocchio because life, with all the hardships and hurdles it still throws at us, nonetheless remains a magnificent Lesson 3: Taking adventure.

  • The Pinocchio Syndrome
    Ben Palpant Article Title: The Pinocchio Syndrome ___________________________________________________________________________________ The Pinocchio Syndrome Pinocchio, the witless. Pinocchio, the mischievous. Pinocchio, the sometimes brave. No sooner had Geppetto finished carving Pinocchio's legs and taught him to walk than the marionette bounced off the table and scampered out the door. With spindle legs and great flopping arms, Pinocchio gamboled off in search of adventure and fresh air. Accused of hating children because little Pinocchio ran off, Geppetto was imprisoned. When poor Pinocchio wandered back home, he found himself poorer than he thought: no Geppetto. He scavenged for food and found, instead, a talking cricket. The candid cricket said that a disobedient boy will become nothing more than an ass. The wisdom of Solomon. Petulant Pinocchio wanted nothing to do with such a kill-joy. He promptly hurled a hammer at the cricket and mashed it into a discolored pile of juice. “What?!” you cry. I know, Disney forgot that part. So Pinocchio wandered into the street, begging for food. Poor Pinocchio. The neighbor, still reeling from a bad day, was cranky and dumped a bucket of water on Pinocchio. Welcome to the world, pal. Pinocchio tried to warm himself on the stove, but fell asleep. When he awoke, his feet were burnt off: a symbol in more ways than one and a warning for the lad who would disobey his father. Geppetto was finally freed after clearing up the confusion. He built new feet for Pinocchio who promised to be good. In a thrall of good intention, Pinocchio promised to attend school and Geppetto sold his only coat to provide school books for Pinocchio.

The Velveteen Rabbit (grades Pre-K- 8) was adapted to build analytical and literacy skills through the exploration of verse and playwriting, fostering creativity and inspiring imaginative thinking. The 2021 Page to Stage Fairy & Folk Tales for Schools Streaming Series offers students the opportunity to study, explore, and view classic literature through performance. TAM’s Annual Page to Stage Education Tours and complimentary programming challenge learners of all ages to explore the ideas, emotions and principles contained in classic texts and to discover the connection between classic theatre and our modern world. Teacher Resource Guide information and activities were developed to help students form a personal connection to the play before attending the production; standards- based activities are included to explore the plays in the classroom before and after the performance. The best way to appreciate classic literature is to explore. That means getting students up on their feet and physically, emotionally, and vocally exploring the words. The kinesthetic memory is the most powerful—using performance-based activities will help students with a range of learning styles to build a richer understanding of the language and identify with the characters and conflicts of the plays.

What days will programming be held? How many weeks will the library offer programs? Will programs be done at the same day and time every week? How many programs will the library offer each week? This helps parents remember when the program is being held. However, the library’s program schedule may not be convenient for all families. Consider having some evening and/or weekend programming for families where both parents work during the day. Be sure to schedule adequate staff and volunteers for each program. Make planning and promotion of the reading program as important as the summer’s activities. Think about when and how you will promote the reading program during the last few weeks of school. Determine the school districts and/or individual schools deadline date for parent newsletters. Are schools willing for you to make school visits to talk about summer reading at an assembly or in classroom? Do you have the time and staff to do this? Contact the local newspaper early and ask them to come to the library to cover one or two special events.

  • Pinocchio’ a Great Starter Play SLOLT’S Academy of Creative Theatre Puts on a Production of Classic Tale of a Wooden Boy
    SanLuisObispo.com Previous Story Next Story ‘Pinocchio’ a great starter play SLOLT’s Academy of Creative Theatre puts on a production of classic tale of a wooden boy By Joan Crowder Special to The TribuneJanuary 17, 2014 Facebook Twitter Google Plus Reddit E-mail Print Trevyn Wong stars in the title role of "Pinocchio." JAMIE FOSTER PHOTOGRAPHY “Pinocchio” is a great opportunity to introduce children to live theatre. The young actors of San Luis Obispo Little Theatre’s Academy of Creative Theatre bring the adventures of the classic puppet to life in the intimate space where the youngsters in the audience have a close-up view of those on the stage. With colorful ethnic-style costumes and some innovative effects, an ensemble of 24 tells the tale of the wooden puppet who longs to become a real boy but succumbs to tricks and temptations along the way. Director Shelagh Garren and ACT coordinator Kerry DiMaggio choose plays with themes that the performers can discuss during rehearsals and that can provide a learning experience as they hone their theatrical skills, Garren said. This one looks at how we tell right from wrong, reacting to peer pressure, what it means to love and to be human, and the importance of education — and of course, telling the truth, as Pinocchio sees his nose grow longer when he doesn’t. Trevyn Wong is a delightful Pinocchio, starting out innocent and vulnerable but becoming mischievous and rebellious, until in the end, he makes a life-threatening effort to save his “papa,” Geppetto, the woodcarver who created him.
