One bold little girl discovers she is anything but small in this empowering new story from
debut author and illustrator Gina Perry.
T he city is big and I am small” begins the story of one little girl who
is feeling overwhelmed by the world around her. While she spends
the day in the city with her mother and baby sibling, tall buildings,
noisy cars, and wide streets are just some of the things that make
our heroine feel tiny. What’s worse, when the family stops for lunch
in the park, a big flock of ducks surround the girl and steal bites of
her lunch. She walks away discouraged, until she spots a playground
slide with a tall ladder, imagines herself conquering its height, and
then does just that! Suddenly the girl realizes that her imagination,
bravery, creativity, and accomplishments—and not her physical
size—are what really count in this uplifting story of girl power.

A family of bears takes young readers through the four seasons in this beautifully illustrated, rhyming
follow-up to The Wonderful Habits of Rabbits!
Readers will love to explore the four seasons of the year along with
a family of friendly bears. These bears have all kinds of “curious cares,”
from climbing trees to stealing honey from bees, to lazing in lakes and
giving big bear hugs. When the chill of winter sets in, the bears hibernate,
warm and cozy, until springtime, when they can explore even more!
This beautifully illustrated, rhyming romp comes from the award-winning
author-and-illustrator team behind The Wonderful Habits of Rabbits,
Douglas Florian and Sonia Sánchez.

In this delightfully humorous picture book by
Miranda Paul, some very perceptive pastas use
their “noodles” to escape their savory fate!
The pasta factory was never a scary place for macaroni. They stayed still
in their packaging with their own kind, dreaming of the exciting lives they
would lead once they were unboxed. But one day, they figure out where
they’re headed: humans’ lunch and dinner plates! The pastas must work
together to stay out of hot water. Will they be able to cook up an escape plan?

A bright full moon illuminates a snowy landscape on a quiet winter
night. Bundled up tightly, two friends venture out into the cold to

of the neighborhood kids. When the friends return home, they warm
up by the fire with cups of hot cocoa before going to sleep to dream
of more snowy adventures! After a long day of outdoor play, readers
will love to snuggle up with this warm winter read full of charming
illustrations and simple rhyming text.
But there she goes! She’s got my toes!I need my tootsies locked!

DIANE OHANESIAN wrote her first “book” in second
grade and has published more than twenty children’s
books since then. She continues to work on new projects
each and every day while living in Hartford, Connecticut.
GILLIAN FLINT loves drawing and painting, and she has
been illustrating professionally since graduating college.
Gillian is based in Saddleworth, in northwest England.
This endearing picture book follows a little boy flummoxed by
his mother’s constant “hugga bugga love”—her nickname for the
uncontainable affection she has for him. From breakfast to bedtime,
Mom takes every opportunity she can to kiss baby’s cheeks, sweep him
up off the floor, and squeeze him in her arms. Not even bath time is safe
from snuggles! Eventually, though, the infant learns that Mom’s “hugga
buggas” show him just how much she loves him. The playful text and lovely
illustrations make Hugga Bugga Love the perfect book for story time.

After saving the day and ending the battle between a
witch and the Pumpkin King, our little dragon heroes find
themselves lost in Terror Swamp in The Great Troll Quest.
While trying to make their way out, they run into the very
trolls they promised to grant a wish to in Knights vs. Dragons.
The trolls demand that their wish now be granted, so Ella
asks their hearts’ desire. She’s surprised to learn that what
trolls want more than anything in the world is . . . puppies?!
In Ella and Owen #6: Dragon Spies!, the siblings have kept
their promise to the trolls, and are once again trying to
find their way home. But they fall through a series of long,
dark, twisting tunnels and end up coming face-to-face
with dwarves who accuse the twins of spying on them
for the elves, who they believe are trying to steal their dirt.
Unfortunately, when Ella and Owen try to make peace with
the dwarves, they are accused of spying on the elves in an
attempt to steal the elves’ leaves! Will the siblings find
a way to clear the air and finally make it home?

Everyone knows that the Statue of Liberty shines
her light over New York Harbor, but do we know
why she was created? How about whom she was
modeled after or who designed the iconic figure?
Blast Back!: The Statue of Liberty has the answers
to those questions and more. The nonfiction
book reveals little-known facts about the tall
green lady, including how the same engineer who
designed the Eiffel Tower created Lady Liberty’s
“spine” and how the statue almost never came
to be. Humorous black-and-white illustrations
complement the text.
This engaging nonfiction book chronicles the
events leading up to and through the Civil Rights
Movement in the United States, as well as the social
impact it had on our nation. Jim Crow laws, famous
protests, and major milestones, such as Brown v.
Board of Education and the Civil Rights Act, are
included, but readers will also discover little-known
facts such as that most of Dr. Martin Luther King
Jr.’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech was actually
improvised. As always, unique images accompany
the text, making learning fun for young readers.
Young readers can blast back to 1875 and discover how a famous symbol of our nation was created.
Eager readers will learn all about the U.S. Civil Rights Movement in this fact-filled addition to the Blast Back! series.

werewolf nearby? Readers will investigate the gory

children!) transformed into werewolves, and other
frightening lore to help them determine the truth.
