A Complicated Love Story Set in Space A love story/mystery/thriller set in space with lots of action, unexpected plot twists and hijinks. If you had one book to bring on a journey to space, this might be it.
Dress-up Day This book has one of my favorite lines in it, “Be sad no more, little rabbit–your carrot is here!” Hugo the carrot really is a mensch.
Charlie & Mouse Are Magic I love all of the Charlie and Mouse beginning readers. In this one, like in the others, Charlie and Mouse find magic in the simple things–like being together, using their imaginations, and appreciating the natural world.
The Magnificent Book of Animals The gorgeous, detailed illustrations in this oversize book are enough to recommend it alone, but the information shared is also intriguing. They chose the most fascinating facts about some really spectacular mammals.
The Big Book of Bling Extravagant in every way! If you are a frugal-minded person who appreciates a little vicarious decadence, this book satisfies.
Wolf Hollow Annabelle is one of my favorite characters ever. She sees injustice in her small town and she sets out to right some wrongs. Unfortunately, she’s only twelve years old, and the world is more complicated and sinister than it should be.
I Really Want to See You, Grandma Yumi and Grandma really want to see each other, so they set out at the same time with great determination. Their paths seem star crossed, but they won’t be sidetracked from their mission to reunite.
Bathe the Cat Probably the silliest, funniest story about doing chores ever written. You’ll love the cat!
Niño Wrestles the World A sweet family story with all of the energy and drama of a Lucha Libre match.
