characters, The Boy Whose Face Froze Like That appeals to
millennial parents looking for an easy-to-read story that has both
a zany plot and a heartwarming message. Featuring striking
full-colour illustrations, the book tells the story of Wendell, a
well-behaved boy who one day decides to make a funny face in
private, only to become the first kid in history whose face
actually freezes "like that." While the plot is full of absurd
attempts to unfreeze Wendell's face, the poignant conclusion adds
the perfect amount of depth to this silly story: hearing that his
parents will always love and accept him is what finally unfreezes
Wendell's face. This balance of the absurd and the meaningful will
appeal to any parents hoping to teach their young child
self-acceptance.

One town's trash becomes the dump man's treasure in this inspiring
tale by award-winning author Lynn Plourde. Mr. Pottle, who oversees
the town landfill, just cannot bear to see books thrown out and
destroyed, so he rescues and recycles them for the community to
enjoy. When Mr. Pottle takes a fall one day and is injured, that
community-especially the children-comes to his rescue. The
townspeople bring books to speed his recovery-and are amazed to
discover that the book-loving man cannot read. That's when a town
full of eager readers helps Mr. Pottle to fully enjoy his
treasures. Illustrations by Mary Beth Owens are packed with details
that capture the chaos and beauty of a dump and show Mr. Pottle's
determination to let nothing of value to go to waste. Little ones
will love the way favorite items keep showing up in different
places around the dump. An enjoyable picture book in its own right,
The Man Who Saved Books also delivers a heartwarming message about
the treasures to be found in books, in reading together, and in
friendship.

Timminy knows that moving to a new town just in time to start middle school when you are perfect bully bait is less than ideal. But he gets a great consolation prize in Maxi--a gentle giant of a dog who the family quickly discovers is deaf. Timminy is determined to do all he can to help Maxi--after all, his parents didn't return him because he was a runt. But when the going gets rough for Timminy, who spends a little too much time getting shoved into lockers at school, Maxi ends up being the one to help him--along with their neighbor, Abby, who doesn't let her blindness define her and bristles at Timminy's "poor-me" attitude. It turns out there's more to everyone than what's on the surface, whether it comes to Abby, Maxi, or even Timminy himself.
Every morning Molly's parents remind her to come home after school
with her mittens, and every day Molly forgets. Nothing works--not
Velcro, not crochet chains, not even duct tape But, Molly is not
alone. All the kids at school forget, and soon there is a mountain
of mittens in lost-and-found that has grown out of control.
WARNING: Lynn Plourde's story is so distractingly funny that you
might misplace your own mittens
