From New York Times-bestselling and Eisner Award-winning creator
Hope Larson comes All My Friends, the final standalone book in a
middle grade graphic novel trilogy about friendship, family, and
music. Perfect for fans of Real Friends by Shannon Hale.
Middle-schooler Bina has everything she's ever wanted. She has new
friends and a new band whose song is about to be featured on her
favorite television show. But being in the spotlight is hard. When
Bina and her band are offered a record deal, her parents are not
thrilled. Now, Bina is barely speaking to her mom and dad. To make
matters worse, Bina and her best friend, Austin, are still awkward
around each other after their failed first date. Can Bina untangle
the various melodies in her heart? Or will fame go to her head?
Can I Build Another Me? follows a child's hilarious, wildly
inventive train of thought as he decides to make a clone of himself
- and starts to ponder what makes him HIM. Is it the scar on his
knee or his sticky palms? Is it his love of acorns or the way he
winks? The more he thinks about it, the more complicated it
becomes..

grey wolves to Yellowstone National Park - the uplifting tales in

precious planet. Many children and young people are very worried
about the health of our planet and climate, and it's easy to feel
overwhelmed by bad environmental news. Happy Stories for Nature
Lovers provides some light, showing that with the right approaches,
we can help nature heal. The book is presented with beautiful
artwork combined with reassuring narrative stories covering
ecological successes such as: The removal of dams on the Rogue
River, Oregon restored the wild salmon habitats, Humpback whale
numbers are up to historic numbers after global whaling bans, The

children to reforest their local areas. What You Can Do at the back
