A warm and funny stage-by-stage tour through all the sizes of a
growing baby – from teeny-tiny poppy seed to giant watermelon –
from an exciting new picture book partnership! It’s hard to wait
for a new baby to join the family, especially when it’s still
growing inside Mum’s tummy. But when Dad describes the size of
the baby at each stage, one little girl imagines, while she waits,
all the fun she can have with her baby brother as a teeny-tiny
poppy seed, then a grape, then a lemon . . . But she’s not quite
sure how she feels about having an avocado for a brother. Or an
onion. Or – gulp – a watermelon! This joyful picture book
playfully explores the loooong waiting game for a much-anticipated
new sibling – with an adorable twist at the end . . .Â
Rex has new glasses and he HATES them! He does NOT want to wear
them to school, and he tries to hide them - in the strangest
places! But it's pretty tricky hiding specs that are so big, and
round and RED . . . It's funny how things turn out, though, because
Rex's specs end up winning him a gold star, and a new friend. Even
better, he can SEE properly. A beautifully illustrated and charming
story about the positive effects of being, well, maybe just a
little different.

I’m supposed to be made of sugar and spice and all things nice.
But I’m sweet and sour and not a little flower. I am a girl! I am
a girl! I am a girl! The girl in this book likes to win, she likes
to be spontaneous, fast and strong, and because she also likes to
dress in t-shirt and shorts, she is forever getting mistaken for a
boy. And when she meets a boy who likes wearing princess dresses
and playing dolls, they both quickly discover that they share
interests that are wide and varied. I am a Girl! is a wonderful
celebration of being who we are and not being pigeon-holed or
restricted by gender stereotypes. Most of all it is full of energy
and laugh-out-loud funny. Who says that pink is for girls and blue
is for boys?
The precocious Sophia and her pet giraffe Noodle learn how to look
at life, love, and art in this latest installment of the series
that Kirkus Reviews calls "fun, clever, and empowering." Sophia
loves her family and her wonderful pet giraffe Noodle, so when she
gets an assignment to draw something she loves, she wants to make
it extra special. Taking her teacher's advice, Sophia uses a little
perspective and creates a work she calls Love. Before she can place
her masterpiece on the refrigerator, her whole family has to
approve of the painting. But this is the Whitney, the Guggenheim,
the Louvre of refrigerators. Can Sophia persuade them to take a
chance on a new perspective, so they can see love from her point of
view?
