Swish, Slosh
Clear illustrations in pastel colors will be accessible to the youngest lapsitters.
Imaginary
With Shovel as narrator, familiar middle grade topics (death of a parent, friends-turned-enemies, bullying), become completely unique and fresh. Tender, laced with sly humor, and full of complex emotion, this novel explores the line between unpredictable reality and controlled imagination. Highly recommended for all youth collections.
PREMIUM
Black Was the Ink
Despite some narrative issues, this is a unique and readable look at a historical period that is not often covered in teen literature.
PREMIUM
A Lesson in Vengeance
Larger libraries where creepy young adult fiction is popular might consider this, but the plot is nebulous and it’s hard to get a decent read on the two main characters, which detracts from the story quite a bit.
PREMIUM
Sylvia Finds a Way
A fun, frolicking tale, and welcome addition to picture book collections, that sneaks in an etiquette lesson without feeling overly didactic.
PREMIUM
Between the Lighthouse and You
This compelling story tackles weighty issues related to death and the afterlife, so it is better suited for more mature middle grade readers and young adults, especially those who may be grieving their own losses.
PREMIUM
Ada and the Galaxies
Worth a purchase for the artwork alone, especially the stunning final page in which brilliant stars reflect in the lenses of Ada’s and her grandfather’s glasses.
PREMIUM
Theo’s Princess
For any collection looking for updated and fractured fairy tales, this one will surprise readers with a sweet, realistic ending.
