Oh hey, guess what? New York Times bestseller Nick Seluk has a
hilarious new nonfiction picture book all about your body's very
own computer -- the brain! Have you ever thought about everything
your brain does for you? It is always working to keep you alive and
safe. (Plus it lets you think about funny stuff, too.) So why is
the brain such a big deal? Because it makes you YOU, of course!This
funny and factual picture book from Heart and Brain creator Nick
Seluk explains the science behind everything the brain helps you
do: keeping your heart beating, telling you when you are sleepy,
remembering stuff, and more. The brain is in charge of everything
you do, every minute of every day for your entire life. That's kind
of a big deal.Each spread features bite-sized text and comic-style
art with sidebars sprinkled throughout. Anthropomorphized organs
and body parts -- recognizable from Nick Seluk's New York Times
bestselling book -- help readers learn through funny jokes and
comic panels. Funny, smart, and accessible, The Brain Is Kind of a
Big Deal is a must-have!

From prima ballerina and New York Times bestselling author Misty
Copeland comes the story of a young Misty, who discovers her love
of dance through the ballet Coppelia - a story about a toymaker who
devises a villainous plan to bring a doll to life. Misty is so
captivated by the tale and its heroine, Swanilda, she decides to
audition for the role. But she's never danced ballet before; in
fact, this is the very first day of her very first dance class!
Though Misty is excited, she's also nervous. But as she learns from
her fellow bunheads, she makes wonderful friends who encourage her
to do her very best. Misty's nerves quickly fall away, and with a
little teamwork, the bunheads put on a show to remember.
