One little dot marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of
surprise and self-discovery in Peter H. Reynolds'
multi-award-winning modern classic. Her teacher smiled. "Just make
a mark and see where it takes you." Art class is over, but Vashti
is sitting glued to her chair in front of a blank piece of paper.
The words of her teacher are a gentle invitation to express
herself. But Vashti can’t draw — she’s no artist. To prove
her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an
unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says. That one little dot
marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of surprise and
self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H.
Reynolds’s delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.
Aimed at readers of every age, this is a poetic, universal and
joyful celebration of how we feel about the people we love most in
our lives - we love them BY HEART! From the anticipating love
parents and caregivers have for their little ones, to the
tremendous love of a lifelong friendship, and the boundless love of
a grandparent . . . these are all the loves this sweet book
celebrates. This is a heartfelt message to share with the people we
cherish; like a song we have known all our lives, we love them by
heart. I loved you by heart before I even met you. I've always
loved you. I love every morsel of your being. I love every smile,
every blink. I love you by heart. Peter H. Reynolds' whimsical and
charming art coveys this deep expression of love with humour and
joyfulness. This is the perfect gift for Valentine's Day or any day
of the year. Just right for new and expectant parents, baby
showers, birthdays, graduations, and anytime you want to share a
most heartfelt message of L-O-V-E! From the creator of the New York
Times bestseller The Word Collector and Say Something. A poetic ode
to unconditional love, perfect for bedtime reading.

fiction and Clarice Bean, this hilarious book is the first

letters?

"Judy Moody was in a mood. Not a good mood. A bad mood. A mad-faced
mood."
To start, Judy Moody doesn't have high hopes for third grade. Her
new desk won't have an armadillo sticker with her name on it. Her
new classroom will not have a porcupine named Roger. And with her
luck, she'll get stuck sitting in the first row, where Mr. Todd
will notice every time she tries to pass a note to her best friend,
Rocky. An aspiring doctor, Judy does have a little brother who
comes in handy for practicing medicine, a cool new pet, and a huge
Band-Aid collection.
Judy also has an abundance of individuality and attitude, and when
Mr. Todd assigns a very special class project, she really gets a
chance to express herself Megan McDonald's spirited text and Peter
Reynolds's wry illustrations combine in a feisty, funny first
chapter book for every kid who has ever felt a little out of sorts.

world-and share our joy! From the New York Times bestselling team
behind the I Am series comes a bighearted celebration of
individuality, of being comfortable in our own skin, respecting
others for who they are, living authentically, and loving
ourselves. For anyone who's ever felt like too much or not enough,
I Am Me is an affirming reminder that difference is what makes life
beautiful-and that each of us matters, just as we are.

spent thinking about Amy, Judy's old friends start to feel left
