Oh, that's great! Now, I would love to pinpoint each picture to a book. Some I can't recall!
1. Chinese Fireworks
2. Beekeeping with the Nun
3. Ride a bike without a helmet
4. Firearm safety with squirrel (I know MaryM loves that picture. Isn't that squirrel so CUTE!!)
5. Bad manners
6. Sailboating without lifejackets and a loose cat
7. Eating snow
8. No collar or leases on the dogs
9. Boy with a gun AND holding a live bear!
10. Bridge endangerment
11. Burning leaves in the open
12. Jumping and swimming off rocks
13. Standing in front of cannons
14. Barrel Drinking alcohol
15. Public indecency
16. Cow love
17. Plane crash
18. Two tightrope walkers
19. Netting the lion
20. Elephants driving car (and they aren't Babar).
Anyone want to stab at the list -- book's name and illustrator? I'm disappointed that I don't recognize all of them readily.

Isn't "eating snow" Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats?
I'm very curious about the beekeeping one, too! No idea.

Whoops, I thought your list was the ones you didn't know 
Let's see, I probably knew only half, though I haven't counted. I, too, was embarrassed that I didn't know more.

That's one I did know. I'm pretty sure it's White Snow, Bright Snow, illustrated by Roger Duvoisin; text: Alvin Tresselt

Those are definitely illustrations by Robert Lawson. I think it's from Wee Gillis or They Were Strong and Good. We just read Wee Gillis but I can't remember. He's one of my favorite ultimate illustrators. (I'm fond of black and white).

I think the jumping and swimming off rocks is Time of Wonder. It isn't One Morning in Maine (I have that one memorized  )

You're probably right -- I was thinking the Maine book because there was already one from Time of Wonder.

Just a correction #6: sail boat with cat is actually The Little Island by Margaret Wise Brown and Leonard Weisgard
BTW: this was caught by my oldest, I let her take a stab at the ones we were missing

Changed our minds about the bad manners one - looks familiar but we don't think it's D'Aulaire, but we can't place it. Time to scour the shelves!
