Caps for Sale and the Mindful Monkeys
This title does not have quite the streamlined plot and wit of its predecessor, but enough of the genius of Caps for Sale shines through to make it a treat for children and adults who want to reunite with the peddler and his naughty monkeys for a new adventure. Purchase where the classic is popular.
A Pattern for Pepper
Although the narrow focus on textiles may limit the audience, the story will likely appeal to young readers with an interest in patterns, design, or fashion and might just inspire some new makers to try their hand at sewing and design. An additional purchase.
Spell Across America: 40 Word-Based Stories, Puzzles, and Trivia Facts Offer a Road-Trip Tour Across the United States
Because of the interactive nature of the book, which encourages readers to write in the pages, this is not an ideal choice for a public library, but it would make a fun addition to many school libraries and classrooms.
When the Moon Was Ours
A wonderful addition to any collection. This tale stirs the imagination and will intrigue listeners from beginning to end. ["Readers who stick with this novel will be rewarded with a love story that is as endearingly old-fashioned as it is modern and as fantastical as it is real": SLJ 8/16 starred review of the Thomas Dunne book.]
The Tiny Hero of Ferny Creek Library
Despite the length, this is a good choice for younger readers and would work well as a classroom read-aloud.
Music Time
This is a joyous ode to unplugged entertainment and everyday life. Recommended for libraries looking for additional beginning-to-read books.
Waiting for Sophie
A sweet and tender addition for libraries looking for more new sibling materials or titles about patience.
The Girl in Between
For libraries looking to add literary and gritty YA to collections lacking in books about teen poverty or homelessness.
Gabby Garcia's Ultimate Playbook
It's refreshing to see a female ballplayer protagonist in a middle grade novel. Consider for robust collections or where baseball stories circulate well.
