Boy Underground is a powerful adventure story of Hugo, an autistic boy who decides to go all the way into the Paris underground to find a place where he belongs. For Hugo, the world can be too loud and bright. He likes the quiet. He likes the dark. And he loves maps.

Navigating secret passages, narrowly escaping robbers and returning to old friends, Hugo discovers more than just buried treasure ...

The world was too bright for Leo. And too loud. "I must be living on the wrong planet," Leo thought. Leo struggles to make sense of the world. He doesn't understand the other children in his class, and they don't seem to understand him. But then one day, Leo meets Maya. Maya is an octopus, and the more Leo learns about her, the more he thinks that perhaps he isn't alone in this world, after all.

What's the point of art? This is the question Henri asks himself when his class is taken on a school trip to the local art gallery. Who wants pictures of old soup cans or melting watches? But when he encounters a painting with the most perfect blue, it creates a beautiful feeling. It's blueberries, oceans, summer skies and butterflies all rolled into one. And then he wanders into a room with a chair and a sign that reads "Is this really a chair?" Henri decides to test it out, unleashing an explosion of creativity! Finally Henri understands what art is all about... Following Isabelle Marinov's successful Leo and the Octopus, this is a fun and encouraging story of a boy learning to appreciate art and its boundless creativity.

This beautifully illustrated biography of Edwin Hubble explores the curiosity that he possessed from a young age, and the many questions that he asked about our universe. This book invites children to ponder these questions as well: How many stars are in the sky? How did the universe begin? Where did it come from? ★ A New York Public Library Best Book for Kids of 2021  ★ A Marginalian (formerly Brain Pickings) Loveliest Children’s Book of 2021 ★ A Bank Street College of Education Best Book of 2022, of Outstanding Merit ★ An Air & Space Magazine Best Children's Book of 2021  ★ A EUREKA! Nonfiction Children's Book Honor Award Winner (California Reading Association) ★ Nominated for a 2023 Beehive Award for Children's Informational Books (Children's Literature Association of Utah) This is the story of Edwin Hubble, a boy fascinated by the stars who surmounted many hurdles to follow his dreams of becoming an astronomer. Using the insights of great mathematicians and endlessly observing the sky, he succeeded in confirming two things that altered human life forever: that there are more galaxies than our own, and that the universe is always expanding. Hubble’s message to us is to find peace in the vastness of the mystery surrounding us, and to be curious. “We do now know why we are born into the world,” he said, “but we can try to find out what sort of world it is.”
