The stunning new picture book by presidential inaugural poet Amanda
Gorman and Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator Christian Robinson.
You're told that This won't work, But how will you know If you
never try? Presidential inaugural poet and #1 New York Times
bestselling author Amanda Gorman and Caldecott Honor and Coretta
Scott King Honor winner Christian Robinson have created a timeless
message of hope. Sometimes the world feels broken. And problems
seem too big to fix. But somehow, we all have the power to make a
difference. With a little faith, and maybe the help of a friend,
together we can find beauty and create change. With intimate and
inspiring text and powerfully stunning illustrations, Something,
Someday reveals how even the smallest gesture can have a lasting
impact.
Sometimes when you're surrounded by dirt, CJ, you're a better
witness for what's beautiful." CJ begins his weekly bus journey
around the city with disappointment and dissatisfaction, wondering
why he and his family can't drive a car like his friends. Through
energy and encouragement, CJ's nana helps him see the beauty and
fun in their routine. This beautifully illustrated, emotive picture
book explores urban life with honesty, interest and gratitude. Last
Stop on Market Street has won multiple awards and spent time at the
number one spot in the New York Times Bestseller List.
Shortlisted for the Yoto Kate Greenaway Medal 2022. Milo Imagines
the World is a warm and richly satisfying story from the
award-winning and New York Times bestselling picture book duo,
about a little boy with a big imagination who learns that you can't
know anyone just by looking at them. Set in a bustling city, and
full of a family love that binds even in difficult circumstances.
Milo is on a train journey through the city with his older sister,
looking at the faces of the other passengers and drawing pictures
of their lives. Milo wonders if perhaps the little boy in bright
white trainers is living in a castle with a moat and a butler. But
when the little boy gets off at the same stop and joins the same
queue as him, Milo realises that you can't judge by appearances and
that we are all more alike than we are different: both boys are
visiting their mothers in prison. Matt de la Pena and Christian
Robinson once again deliver a hugely powerful and enjoyable picture
book, full of rich details both to look at and to talk about.
Anyone who has ever travelled on public transport will relate to
Milo's journey.

appearances in this adorable doggy tale from "New York Times
"bestselling author Kelly DiPucchio and illustrator Christian
Robinson.
This is the story of four puppies: Fi-Fi, Foo-Foo, Ooh-La-La, and
Gaston. Gaston works the hardest at his lessons on how to be a
proper pooch. He sips--"never slobbers " He yips--"never yaps " And
he walks with grace--"never races " Gaston fits right in with his
poodle sisters.
But a chance encounter with a bulldog family in the park--Rocky,
Ricky, Bruno, and Antoinette--reveals there's been a mix-up, and so
Gaston and Antoinette switch places. The new families look
right...but they don't feel right. Can these puppies follow their
noses--and their hearts--to find where they belong?

trees to howling dogs to stray cats in the car park, little Sally
notices things that others don't, and when she sees people being
mean at school, she is brave enough to speak up. The Smallest Girl
in the Class by Justin Roberts and Christian Robinson is a moving
and gorgeously illustrated story about bravery and changing the
world for the better. The perfect book to build empathy and start
