Chloe, InsteadBy Micah Player

Molly always dreamed of having a sister who is just like her. But she got Chloe, instead. These two sisters are nothing alike: Molly loves to color with crayons. Chloe prefers the taste of wax. Molly loves to read. Chloe prefers to nibble a book’s spine. Molly is frustrated! But then she realizes that maybe sisters aren’t the ones next to you on the piano bench, they’re the ones dancing to the music you play! This humorous, perceptive snapshot of sibling love is perfect for those who may need a bit of convincing what fun little siblings can be!

Micah Player (Paperrifle.com) is an illustrator living in Los Angeles who previously worked at Paul Frank Industries as a designer and creative director. He is the illustrator of the Sports Matching Game and Around the World Puzzle. This is his first picture book.

WALL DECAL TIPS AND TRICKS1. While these wall decals are very easy to peel and stick, it’s always helpful

to plan out your wall art before removing the decals from their liners.

Before applying the decals, ensure that your wall space is clean and dry.

Measure your space and compare it to the size of the decals. Use a pencil

to create light, erasable hash marks on your wall to indicate where you’d

like to place the decals.

2. Once you’re ready to place a decal, gently remove it from its liner in one

steady direction, starting from where the decal is the widest. To avoid

tears, take your time around curves or pointed edges, carefully pulling

the decal away from the liner.

3. Place the edge of the decal on the wall and slowly apply to the wall

in one steady motion, smoothing it out as you go.

4. To remove or reposition the decal, gently pull it away from the wall,

taking special care around corners, curves, and edges.

But with the help of his new friend, Gort, Bud hides his true identity and even learns to play anti-gravity Zero-Ball (when he’s only ever been good at watching sports).

Project JackalopeBy Emily Ecton

Jeremy’s troubles begin when his eccentric neighbor leaves him an “experi-ment” for safekeeping—a jackalope! This so-called mythological creature looks like a bunny rabbit, but comes with razor-sharp antlers and is purported to be a ruthless killer. When government agents show up at Jeremy’s house seeking the jackalope for their own nefarious purposes, Jeremy must find a way to protect the jackalope, and himself. So he reluctantly joins forces with Agatha, his holier-than-thou genius neighbor. Together, with the jackalope (and his weapons-grade antlers) tucked away in a backpack, they have only one chance to save Jack and still get their science fair projects in on time. With her striking sense of humor, Emily Ecton has created a hilarious and suspenseful adven-ture, complete with a compelling and unforgettable cast of characters.

You think jackalopes aren’t real?

Think again.

I took a deep breath and took the lid off the hamper, flinging it onto the bed so I couldn’t wuss out again. Which was a big mistake.

Because when I looked inside that hamper I almost lost it. In my defense, I think anyone would have. I distinctly remembered putting my gym clothes on top of the box, right? I know I did that. But when I looked in the hamper, there were no gym clothes. There wasn’t even any box: just a big pile of shredded cotton, pieces of cardboard, and that thing blinking up at me from the bottom of the hamper. I couldn’t pretend it wasn’t happening. That thing, the one that had destroyed the contents of my hamper in what, thirty minutes flat? It was a bunny. Yeah, I know. A tiny little fluffy bunny with soft tufty feet and huge Hallmark card eyes. Oh yeah, and a set of nasty-looking razor-sharp antlers coming out of its head.

It was a jackalope.

Emily Ecton is a writer and producer for Wait Wait . . . Don’t Tell Me!, the NPR news quiz show. She has also been a playwright, a chinchilla wran-gler, an ice cream scooper, and a costume character. She lives in Chicago with her dog, Binky.

Tua and the ElephantBy R.P. Harris • Illustrated by Taeeun Yoo

Ten-year-old Tua—Thai for “peanut”—has everything she needs at home in Chiang Mai, Thailand, except for one thing she’s always wanted: a sister. In the market one day, Tua makes an accidental acquaintance—one with wise, loving eyes, remarkable strength, and a very curious trunk. And when Tua meets Pohn-Pohn, it’s clear this elephant needs her help. Together, the unusual team sets off on a remarkable journey to escape from Pohn-Pohn’s vile captors. From the bustling night market to the hallowed halls of a Buddhist temple and finally, to the sanctuary of an elephant refuge, this clever girl and her beloved companion find that right under their noses is exactly what each has been searching for: a friend.

Two unlikely friends on the adventure of a lifetime

“An or—chid?” Tua snapped back. When she

saw Auntie Orchid wince beneath the cold cream

and clutch her throat, she recalled her mother’s

words: “A sharp tongue cuts both ways.”

“Orchid is a very nice name,” Tua corrected

herself. “We could always call her Orchid.”

“Taken,” Auntie Orchid cleared her throat.

“Already taken, thank you very much. Two

Orchids would only confuse the public, darling,”

she explained. “It just isn’t done.”

They had reached an impasse. An impasse in

conversation is rather like a roadblock in traffic.

It’s the jam in traffic jam.

Tua hunched her shoulders, grinning impishly.

“Oh, all right. We’ll call her Pohn, then,” Auntie

Orchid sighed.

“Pohn-Pohn!” Tua called to the elephant.

“Pohn,” Auntie Orchid corrected her niece.

“One Pohn is plenty Pohn enough.”

She imagined herself saying, “Mama, guess what I found?”


Girl Meets BoyBecause There Are Two Sides to Every Story

Edited by Kelly Milner Halls

What do guys and girls really think? Twelve of the most dynamic and engag-ing YA authors writing today team up for this one-of-a-kind collection of “he said/she said” stories—he tells it from the guy’s point of view, she tells it from the girl’s. These are stories of love and heartbreak. There’s the good-looking jock who falls for a dangerous girl, and the flipside, the toxic girl who never learned to be loved; the basketball star and the artistic (and shorter) boy she never knew she wanted; the gay boy looking for love online and the girl who could help make it happen. Each story in this unforgettable collection teaches us that relationships are complicated—because there are two sides to every story.

SHE SAID:

“Because I’m supposed to matter to you,” I said, my temper rising. “I suppose you won’t answer your cell phone again, either,” I continued. “You didn’t answer it Wednesday, as I recall. Too busy screwing around with your new girlfriend?”

— from Some Things Never Change by Kelly Milner Halls

HE SAID:

“Suddenly I was on twenty-four-hour call. Wanda’s panicked voice would breathe into my cell phone with increasing frequency . . . Where was I?. . . What was I doing? Had I turned off my phone? Why had I turned off my phone?

The plain and simple truth, that I was sitting in my room, grabbing some minutes for myself . . . was not the answer she could tolerate . . . Truth was, I was smitten as the day I met her.”

From elephants flapping in cool, misty spray to bears scratching away mud with the rough bark of a tree, animals get clean in all kinds of unique ways! This splish-splashy introduction to the wild world of animals and their bath-time habits will encourage young children to hop in the bath themselves and have some squeaky clean fun while they are at it! Vibrant and playful collages by award-winning author and artist Bob Barner paired with simple rhyming text will keep readers laughing all the way to the tub!

Animals like to get clean

just like YOU and ME!

When Bob Barner is not working on books, he likes to present his work to schools and libraries around the world. He lives in San Francisco with his wife, Cathie. Learn more at Bobbarner.com.

WALL DECAL TIPS AND TRICKS1. While these wall decals are very easy to peel and stick, it’s always helpful

to plan out your wall art before removing the decals from their liners.

Before applying the decals, ensure that your wall space is clean and dry.

Measure your space and compare it to the size of the decals. Use a pencil

to create light, erasable hash marks on your wall to indicate where you’d

like to place the decals.

2. Once you’re ready to place a decal, gently remove it from its liner in one

steady direction, starting from where the decal is the widest. To avoid

tears, take your time around curves or pointed edges, carefully pulling

the decal away from the liner.

3. Place the edge of the decal on the wall and slowly apply to the wall

in one steady motion, smoothing it out as you go.

4. To remove or reposition the decal, gently pull it away from the wall,

taking special care around corners, curves, and edges.
