A gentle and moving story about an intergenerational friendship
between a young child and their neighbor told through a series of
letters, for fans of Ida, Always. When Jackson’s soccer
ball accidentally lands in his neighbor’s rose bush, he thinks
he’s ruined Mr. Graham’s roses forever. So he quickly writes a
letter to Mr. Graham that blossoms into a marvelous friendship.
Jackson writes letters, highlighting the everyday moments to make
them feel larger than life, and Mr. G keeps writing back until the
very end of his life, encouraging Jackson to live each day to the
fullest.   This breathtakingly beautiful
epistolary story shows the strength of letter-writing and
intergenerational bonds. The text is accompanied by tender and
evocative artwork to remind us that even as seasons change, our
loved ones always stay in our hearts.Â

From debut author Antwan Eady and artist Gracey Zhang comes a
glowing tale about the young dreaming big. A perfect story to
demonstrate how pride in where we come from can bring a shining
confidence. When Nigel looks up at the moon, his future is bright.
He imagines himself as...an astronaut, a dancer, a superhero, too!
Among the stars, he twirls. With pride, his chest swells. And his
eyes, they glow. Nigel is the most brilliant body in the sky. But
it's Career Week at school, and Nigel can't find the courage to
share his dreams. It's easy to whisper them to the moon, but not to
his classmates-especially when he already feels out of place. * A

A sparkling and deeply felt story of love, loss, renewal—and
jam!—offering a gentle reminder of the cyclical
nature of the world around us. If you ever have a mulberry tree,
you’ll climb branches and shake with all your might. You’ll
gather berries and smush fruits, while your dad boils jars in a
tall, silver pot sweating and happy as the kitchen fills with
steam. Because if you’ve ever had a mulberry tree, you know that
the sweetest things are worth waiting for. Â Sumptuous text
and deliciously expressive illustrations come together to form a
gentle ode to nature’s bounty, to patience, and to one girl’s
lifelong connection to the tree in her yard. Â
A New York Times Best Illustrated Book of 2022 The Little Prince
meets Journey in this gorgeous, reassuring picture book fable about
loss, perseverance, and finding what matters most. What happens to
a boy who has nothing but a hat? Everything. A boy wakes up one
morning and finds that everything he owns has gone missing. With
nothing but a simple green hat, the boy journeys through distant
landscapes, searching high and low for the things he has lost.
Along the way he discovers that perhaps everything he needs has
been with him all along. Stephen Barr makes his debut in this
achingly poignant and deeply profound fable of one boy's adventure
to recover his life's treasures. With vibrant illustrations by
Gracey Zhang and a subtle message about hopeful perseverance, this
book is an exquisite, emotional journey through loss, persistence,
and discovering what's truly essential. TIMELESS PICTURE BOOK:
Deeply reflective, sparingly written, and beautifully illustrated,
this tale will strike a chord with its poignant storytelling. It's
a picture book for any reader, of any age, at any time. A FABLE FOR
THE AGES: Reminiscent of the stories of Aesop's Fables, this book
touches on universal themes of the human condition and shares a
heartfelt message that is effortless but hopeful. Readers will come
away thinking differently about what they own, what they need, and
what they hold most dear. NEW VOICE IN CHILDREN'S BOOKS: Debut
author Stephen Barr brings years of experience working with authors
as a literary agent to craft this gem of a picture book that will
resonate with fans of classic children's stories. IMMERSIVE
ILLUSTRATION: Gracey Zhang's spellbinding art illuminates every
step of the story, immersing the reader in a gorgeously rendered
world that feels familiar yet utterly unique. Perfect for: *
Parents interested in teaching their kids about loss and gratitude
* Children who like fables/myths * Readers who love losing
themselves in immersive picture book art * Readers looking for a
modern classic picture book * Fans of William Steig, Erin and
Philip Stead, and the Chronicles of Narnia * Educators and
librarians looking for a magical, engaging read-aloud
