School Library Journal - "The unique monthly focus

School Library Journal - "The unique monthly focus is an interesting and helpful take on gardening; readers will learn about different types of vegetables and flowers equally. Whether there is a garden at school or not, this is a charming addition to the shelves and could be adapted to a very early #science lesson for preschoolers, too."

Gardening teaches kids responsibility, patience, and an appreciation for nature. MY DELICIOUS GARDEN by Anne-Marie Fortin, ill. by Julien Castanié follows a girl who lovingly tends to her garden through the months 🌱

#InternationalDayofHumanSpaceFlight

"For any fan of Earth."
Kirkus Reviews - ⭐STARRED REVIEW ⭐

In 1968, the Apollo 8 crew was about to go farther into space than anyone had gone before—to the moon. There, they took "Earthrise", a photo that had a profound effect back on Earth, galvanizing the environmental movement and changing the way people saw our single, fragile home planet.

EARTHRISE, by James Gladstone and @christy_lundy, tells the story behind the photograph. Text includes dialogue pulled from NASA’s Apollo 8 transcript, drawing readers into the iconic moment Earth was photographed from space. An author’s note at the end explains more about the photograph, the Apollo 8 mission, and how Earthrise went on to inspire Earth Day.

PRINCESS PRU AND THE SWITCHEROO (Apr 15) by Mauree

PRINCESS PRU AND THE SWITCHEROO (Apr 15) by Maureen Fergus, ill. by Danesh Mohiuddin is a fearsomely #funny take on the classic saying “the grass isn’t always greener on the other side” with expressive, comical illustrations.

Kirkus Reviews says "This comical poke at class and gender expectations features properly boisterous cartoon illustrations ... Tweaks conventions with tongue firmly embedded in cheek."

Hop into bed and enjoy this timeless and magical story about the power of love and imagination.

Every night Milo’s mom tucks him in and reads him three bedtime stories, and Milo taps his dad’s picture three times. Mom always falls asleep first, so Milo sneaks out the window, catches a ride on a comet, and travels far above the clouds to help the Keeper of Stars. Together, Milo and the Keeper of Stars gather up stray balloons and feathers, rinse and polish the stars (which would be easier if they weren’t so ticklish!), and sometimes, the Keeper of Stars lets Milo play games with the baby stars.

@mypbjam's spare text twinkles with warmth, imagination, and humor and @doroleung's whimsical, eye-catching illustrations bring this charming bedtime adventure to life.

Booklist calls it "A sparkling bedtime story that will set the stage for sweet dreams."

THE KEEPER OF STARS releases April 15, 2024. Pre-order your copy today!

It’s autumn, and Covenly residents are gathering

It’s autumn, and Covenly residents are gathering at the annual fall fair. Suddenly, a prized show chicken goes missing and there’s a new mystery to solve!

The three Weird Sisters—Hildegurp, Glubbifer, and Yuckmina— and nine-year-old Jessica Nibley team up to find the hapless hen in a madcap hunt that involves an enchanted roller coaster, a frog in a top hat, and a sticky trail of goo.

@marksmithbooks's clever wordplay and humorous misunderstandings pair with @rustikar's dynamic illustrations to bring about a gentle lesson in apologizing.
