With vibrant art that shifts to a colorless world and back again,
this is a story of a community lost and rediscovered-and how one
child's actions can cascade into something that makes all the
difference. A young boy who loves his community notices that as
neighbors stop interacting, the colors around them slowly fade.
Then a thunderstorm sweeps away the last hints of bluebird skies
and lemon-Popsicle days and leaves a rift in the road that doesn't
get fixed. As the adults around him move on, the boy dreams of the
way life once was. He decides that he doesn't want to live in a
world without color, so he sets out to change things...
A brave tractor farms for freedom in a story inspired by women who
acted with courage and strength in American factories and on
British farms during World War II. This is our Rosie, stronger than
steel. She’ll plow all the land with a turn of her wheel. Built
by women in the United States and sent to England to dig and plow
alongside female farmers during World War II, Rosie the tractor
does whatever is needed to support the war effort. She works day
and night to help grow crops for the troops…even when she has to
hide in the fields. This is because she knows, like the women who
built her and the women who farm with her, that they all must do
their part. Inspired by the group of American women collectively
known as “Rosie the Riveter” and the British Women’s Land
Army, this is a story about taking action and coming together for
the greater good.
Pink finds happiness right where she always knew it was in this
colorful companion to the popular picture book This Book Is Gray.
Pink loves her rosy world, from her pink toy dinosaur to her pet
flamingo, Phil. But when she sees the Primaries and Secondaries
getting ready for the Rainbow Extravaganza, she begins to wonder
why she isn't in the rainbow...and if that means she's not really a
color. Then she meets the Tints, and she's even more confused.
Luckily, a friend shows her the many ways she spreads joy-reminding
Pink that she is truly one of a kind, rainbow or not. Featuring the
world of colors introduced in This Book Is Gray-and a few new color
concepts-this is a tale about appreciating who you are and
realizing that only you can decide what makes you happy.

Gray just wants to be included. But the other colors are always
leaving him out. So he decides to create his own project: an
all-gray book. Once upon a time, there lived a wolf, a kitten, and
a hippo... Gray just knows it's going to be perfect. But as he adds
page after page, the Primary and Secondary colors show up...and
they aren't quite so complimentary. A book within a book, this
colorful tale explores the ideas of fitting in, appreciating
others, and looking at things from another perspective and also
uses personality and wit to introduce basic color concepts.
Dexter T. Rexter is on a plane-for the very first time. Dexter
can't wait to go on vacation with his best friend, Jack. Supercool
orange sunglasses? Check. Nifty travel hat? Check. Plane tickets?
Uh, what? Dexter may be the toughest, coolest dinosaur around, but
everyone knows T. rexes don't fly! If anyone could do it, he could.
It's just that he's suddenly feeling a little hot. And maybe a
little nervous. But just as he starts to melt down, he notices Jack
looks upset. Dexter realizes he has to be brave enough for both of
them. And maybe, just maybe, he'll start to have a bit of fun in
the air. Both nervous and funny, Dexter tells the readers what he's
feeling and even asks their advice as he comes to understand that
being brave with a friend makes everything a little better. And
hey, those cookies during the flight don't hurt, either!
Introducing Dexter T. Rexter, the toughest, coolest dinosaur ever.
At least he likes to think so. When his best friend, Jack, leaves
him behind at the doctor's office, Dexter T. Rexter panics. First
he tries to find Jack. Then he sings their special song. Then he
sings their special song even louder. But when Jack still doesn't
appear, Dexter starts to wonder. What if he's being replaced by
another toy? It can't be-after all, he can STOMP, RAWR, and CHOMP!
Right? Right?! This hilariously neurotic dinosaur will do whatever
it takes to get his friend back-even asking the reader's advice-in
this first book of a brand-new series.
