Real Siblings
“When adopted siblings Harper and Wyatt hear this, they start to question what it means to be a real sibling. They share experiences and emotions, and they help each other out in times of need, but most importantly, they have unconditional love for one another. Isn’t that enough?” — publisher

A Rainbow in Brown
“In art class, Jo wants to paint all the wonderful things she loves. With a palette of red, yellow, and blue, Jo knows she can mix them together to make a new color. Her imagination takes flight as she explores painting with primary colors and making her own secondary colors, each as beautiful as the last. But through her exploration of the colors of the rainbow, Jo finds that her favorite is a combination of them all: brown.” — publisher
Love Bubble
“Love bubbles are meant to protect us from the trouble that can find us in daily life. They require faith, hope, and persistence to give them power. Encouraging readers to dig deep and believe in themselves, Harold Green III’s Love Bubble reminds children of the power of love—for ourselves and everyone around us.” — publisher
Mango Memories
“Every summer, the branches of a little girl’s favorite tree droops heavy with mangoes. And this year, she is finally old enough to help her family harvest them. Her brother shares a memory about his first time mango picking: his father holding him steady as he reached high above for the fruit. But when the girl climbs the tree, she becomes too dizzy. Then her grandma shares a mango memory: learning, many years ago, to toss a stone that knocked the fruit from the branches. But when the girl throws her stone, she keeps missing.” — publisher
The Book That Almost Rhymed
“What do you do with an interrupting sibling? Especially when she’s stepping all over your story with wild ideas that don’t. Even. Rhyme. Knights riding rockets? Dancing pirates? Who’s ever heard of a fire-breathing armadillo?! But when this big brother realizes his sister just might be improving his yarn—and doing it with an impressive surprise of her own—it’s clear what you do with an interrupting sibling. You share the narrative! Turns out adventure is way more fun when you build it together, rhyme by daring rhyme.” — publisher
Give Back
“Follow a little girl and her multigenerational family as they prepare for a community meal and clothing drive. With charming, lyrical text from Gina Bellisario, Give Back celebrates kindness, community, and the various ways we can give to those around us. A perfect book for the holiday season and all year round.” — publisher
Zoologists on the Trail (Kid Scientist)
“The kid scientists are in Yellowstone National Park, checking on a wolf pack they last saw one year ago. Kai is a zoologist. He and his team study animals and how they behave in their environments. Their latest assignment: observing wolves in Yellowstone National Park. Using a combination of old and new technology, Kai’s team checks the pack’s health and its effect on the environment. Inspired by a real-world study, this story introduces readers to the terms, tools, and techniques zoologists use in their research, including bioacoustics, the study of making and receiving animal sounds.” — publisher
Meena and the Microbiome
“After the last drop of rain falls, Meena and her mom head outside to their garden, which is bursting with veggies and flowers. But it isn’t the produce that Meena is curious about. It’s the microbes in the soil (giving it that earthy smell), in the compost pile, in our bodies—everywhere!—that have Meena wondering. How do they live? What do they eat? Where did Meena’s own microbiome come from? Comparing microbe communities to a bustling city, where everyone has a job to do, Meena’s scientist mom answers her questions while they garden, gather vegetables for a neighbor, have a snack at the picnic table, and end the day with a sudsy bath. Physician-scientist Dr. Majdi Osman introduces the adorable Meena during a day of eye-opening exploration, while Teresa Martínez’s engaging illustrations capture the mother-daughter pair in perspectives ranging from microscopic to bird’s-eye view. Back matter includes a resource list and an author’s note on the far-reaching role that the microbiome plays in our health and development.” — publisher
