Moving Out, Moving Up, Moving On

For new graduates, or for anyone facing imminent change, here is profound insight, bold inspiration, and truly ensloxifying advice. Also an occasional hippo. No wombats.

What''s more, Yay,You! will not overstress the weary mind. It''s nice and short, with lots of pictures, no chapters, no index, no graphs, no study questions, and not a single Suggestion for Further Reading.

Portable, colorful, and low in saturated fats, this is truly the perfect gift for that special onwardly-mobile someone.

There are so many choices. The world is immense. Take a good look around and decide what makes sense...

    Great Gift for Grads
    Sandra Boynton - who entered our home with my niece and nephew - has become something of a family staple, and this lovely Graduation message book is right up to her usual standards. Delightful rhymes, bold colours, simple - yet surprisingly empathetic - drawings are all the Boyton hallmark, but it's the message in this book that is truly touching. For anyone about to go take their first steps on an independant life, this lovely little message, which brings to mind 'Oh, the Places You'll Go,' is just perfect, and a bit more personally loving. Will you succeed in everything you try? Well, maybe not. But will you still be special? Absolutely.

    An ageless message...
    I read this to my class at the end of the school year no matter what grade I have, it applies to all. I even read it at the graduation ceremony one year. I also give it to all Student-Teachers that work in my classroom so they can read it to their future classes. I love the message it sends!

    Best from Sandra Boynton
    I bought this book for almost every one of my friends who I graduated with and I also kept a copy for myself. I read it whenever I feel depressed and it always makes me smile. It's very simple, yet it says so much.

    Truly Inspirational!
    I found this book to be truly uplifting and inspirational. It's a great idea for anyone who has just accomplished a major feat, or for someone who is going through a difficult time and needs some encouragement. I am a recent graduate and I am definitely going to buy it for myself!

About the Author

Sandra Boynton is known to many as "that guy who does the cards"; or, sometimes, as "the Hippo Birdie person"; or even "the Chocolate lady." To a highly selective group (4), she is known as "Mom."

After 23 jolly years, she no longer does the cards, and is doing books instead. They include:

  • A to Z

  • Opposites

  • Blue Hat, Green Hat

  • But Not the Hippopotamus

  • Dinos to Go

  • Doggies

  • Dinosaur''s Binkit

  • Bob

  • Horns to Toes

  • Snoozers

  • Hippos Go Berserk!

  • Moo, Baa, La La La!

  • The Going to Bed Book

A hippie-era graduate of Germantown Friends School and Yale, Boynton dropped out theatrically of the Yale School of Drama.

About the Book

Sandra Boynton celebrates taking that next step with humor and wisdom. Whimsical artwork and winsome text make this a book to be treasured by readers of all ages.
