The magic of the New York Times and PW bestselling Whatever After
series comes to life in this brand-new graphic novel adaptation
that will appeal to fans of Raina and Wings of Fire alike!
Fractured fairy tales have never been this fun. Once upon a time,
Abby and her little brother, Jonah, were ordinary kids. The next
minute? The mirror in their basement slurped them up and magically
transported them into the fairy tale of Snow White. Yes, really!
When Abby and Jonah stop Snow from eating the poison apple, they
think they're heroes. But wait! If Snow doesn't die, she won't meet
her prince and get her happy ending. Oops. Now it's up to Abby and
Jonah-- with some help from Snow and the seven dwarfs--to outwit
the witch and save the famous fairy tale in time. But what if
Snow's REAL happy ending is something else entirely? Bestselling
author Sarah Mlynowski and award-winning illustrator Anu Chouhan
join forces to bring us this vibrant, action-packed, enchanting
graphic novel adventure that will appeal to fans of fairy tales,
Raina Telgemeier, The Land of Stories, and all magical, empowering
adventures.
A dupatta is so much more than a beautiful piece of fabric. A
dupatta is sound—swooshing and swashing like a superhero cape. A
dupatta is scent—cinnamon and cardamom, crushed coriander and
peppermint oil. A dupatta is fun—playing peekaboo and building
cushion forts with dupatta canopies. Written by Marzieh Abbas and
vividly brought to life by the artwork of Anu Chouhan, this is a
loving and lyrical ode to the dupatta. These shawls—traditionally
worn by women in various cultures of South Asia—are beautiful and
colourful of course, but they're also fun, functional, and carry
the sounds and smells of family and identity.

A beautiful picture book about the joyful magic in the tradition of
hair oiling and a celebration of the bond between parent and child.
Meenu loves Magic Hair Days, when Mommy mixes sweet-smelling oils
together and massages the potion into Meenu's scalp and hair. It
always leaves Meenu with a fuzzy, magical feeling. And after bath
time, when Mom washes the oils out, Meenu's hair is soft and
shining. When Meenu decides one day to mix the oils without any
help, she discovers something's wrong: No matter how many oils she
mixes, the magic just isn't there! What is she missing? But when
Mommy comes to help, massaging Meenu's head, the fuzzy, magical
feeling returns! Was it really in the oils, or something else?
Inspired by Anu Chouhan's own memories and family, this
author-illustrator debut is a lovely depiction of a cultural
tradition and a delightful story that emphasizes that magical bond
between parents and children.
A girl explores her love of dancing and her cultural identity in a
lively picture book with echoes of the real-life collaboration
between Bharatanatyam icon Rukmini Devi Arundale and ballerina Anna
Pavlova. Paro comes from a dancing family. At home, she dances
Bharatanatyam with her mom, and now she's excited to learn ballet.
But what if she can't dance like the other kids in her class?
Ballerinas move like fairies, while Bharatanatyam dancers seem like
queens. Paro can't be both...can she? Anu Chouhan's vibrant,
energetic illustrations emphasize themes of creative flexibility
and navigating the intersections of different cultural identities.
