The Vibrant Hong Kong Table celebrates many of Hong Kong’s most iconic dishes with a vegan twist. Organized by a day of eating through the city and paying homage to its culinary heritage, these fresh, bright, vegetable-based recipes include:

Breakfast and Dim Sum 點心: Sampan Congee, Lotus

Leaf Rice, “Egg” Tarts

Cha Chaan Teng 茶餐廳 and Lunchbox Favorites: Baked Tempeh Chop Rice, Black-Pink Pepper

Cabbage Steak, Jackfruit Brisket Noodles

Family-Style Dinners, from Festival Foods to Dai Pai

Dongs 大牌檔: “Fish Fragrant” Eggplant, Sweet & Sour Cauliflower, Snow Skin Mooncakes

Siu Yeh 宵夜 (Late-Night Snacks) and Sweets: Curry “Fishballs,” Three Treasures, Hong Kong Sweet Buns

FLORAL ESTRANGEMENTS

Taunt Your Rivals and Vanquish Your Enemies through the Language of Flowers

BY REBECCA FISHBEIN

Flowers for when you love them . . . not.

The ultimate guide to finding new and fragrant ways to channel your frustrations and fuel your revenge fantasies with some common (and not-so-common) vengeful plants, as well as suggested bouquets to blight your nemeses.

Is there anything more savage than an archly composed bouquet? The Victorians didn’t think so, which is why their flower symbols weren’t just endearing—they were also cheeky, rude, and downright hostile. This illustrated floriography will help you choose the perfect Floral Estrangement for your situation, such as:

The “Maybe You Shouldn't Have Given Me Your Phone Password” (Yellow Chrysanthemum, Birdsfoot Trefoil, Basil, Yellow Rose, Tansy)

The “Still Thinking about the $1K I Spent to Be a Bridesmaid at Your Destination Wedding” (BlackEyed Susan, Birdsfoot Trefoil, Delphinium, Orange Lily)

The “His Mommy Issues Are Now Your Problem” (Withered White Rose, Pine, Delphinium)

With incredible, subtly hostile illustrations of flowers throughout, this is a sumptuous, decadent, guilty pleasure of a gift or self-purchase. As a modern bard says, “Don’t get sad, get even.”

CAT PEOPLE TO JUDGE IN ART AND LIFE

BY NICOLE TERSIGNI

From the author of the hit humor book Men to Avoid in Art and Life comes this tongue-in-cheek collection of cats' innermost thoughts.

Cat people love their cats deeply . . . maybe a little too deeply. Cats, on the other hand, secretly hate our haircuts but tolerate our presence because we have the thumbs to open the food can. Against the backdrop of fine art, bestselling author Nicole Tersigni delves into the minds of our feline companions and the people who serve them.

Broken into five sections representing all kinds of cat people, including the Smotherer, the Oversharer, the Pushover, the Proud Parent, and the Roommate, this hilariously insightful cat humor book says the things our loved ones can’t—that Mewlius Caesar would enjoy us more if we gave them some space. And a better name.

Nicole Tersigni is a comedic writer experienced in improv comedy and women's advocacy. She lives in Metro Detroit with her husband, daughter, and two dogs.

n this unique and deeply thoughtful collection, musician Alex Bleeker (Real Estate) and food and travel journalist Luke Pyenson (formerly of Frankie Cosmos) take readers on tour with a diverse lineup of inspiring indie musicians from around the world, sharing meals and travel experiences, peeking behind the curtain at this singular and singularly misunderstood way of life.

Through original essays and engaging conversations with dozens of indie musicians representing several subgenres, scenes, and eras, food takes center stage in stories about being on tour and eating on tour and how this basic human necessity can create a sense of community and interconnectedness in one of the most mobile industries in the world. Based broadly on the subject of eating on tour, these entries each spin off into their own focused and exciting behind-the-scenes story, but all confirm what Pyenson and Bleeker suspected all along—food looms large in the lives of touring musicians, and it can be used as a gateway into understanding what going on tour is really like.

In addition to wide-angle meditations about eating on tour, Pyenson and Bleeker have gathered stories that take place on five continents, in private homes and street-side stalls, in temples of fine dining and in actual temples, backstage and in the van, early morning and late at night. Stories that deal with the best parts of touring: meaningful cultural exchange, hospitality-induced euphoria, and the opportunity to build relationships around the world.

MARVEL SUPER GRAPHIC

A Visual Guide to the Marvel Comics Universe

BY TIM LEONG

Marvel Super Graphic is a delightfully entertaining and fresh look at the Marvel comics universe through the mighty metrics of colorful infographics.

How many stomach-soothing tablets would Galactus need if he ate the Earth? Clobber versus smash: Who won each fight between the Thing and the Hulk? How worthy is each individual who has hefted Thor’s hammer? Which Marvel heroes play musical instruments? What’s on the Kingpin’s mind?

Author and designer Tim Leong has creatively visualized dozens of deep dive data points and witty “I wonder” subjects ranging from character speed rankings to the length Mister Fantastic can stretch before it hurts to the overlapping stories of the Spider-Verse. Through playful and informative pie charts, bar graphs, Venn diagrams, scatter plots, timelines, story arc guides, and more, Marvel Super Graphic shines a fun and fascinating new light on beloved comics, characters, and Marvel history.

ONE WEEK IN JANUARY

New Paintings for an Old Diary

BY CARSON ELLIS

“Feels like reading a love story that doesn't quite know it's a love story yet, and a success story that doesn't know it’s made it.”

—Emma Straub, New York Times–bestselling author of This Time Tomorrow

Award-winning, beloved children's book author and illustrator Carson Ellis makes a stunning adult debut with an illustrated memoir that evocatively captures a specific cultural moment of the early 2000s and in her journey as an artist.

In January 2001, the young artist Carson Ellis moved into a warehouse in Portland, Oregon, with a group of fellow artists. For the first week she lived there, she kept a detailed diary full of dry observations, mordant wit, hijinks with friends (including her future husband, Decemberists frontman Colin Meloy), and turn-of-the-millennium cultural touchstones. Now, Ellis has richly illustrated this two-decade-old journal with extraordinary new paintings in the signature style that has made her an award-winning picture book author today.

This beautiful volume offers a snapshot of a bygone era, a meticulous re-creation of quotidian frustrations and small, meaningful moments, and a meditation on what it means both to start your journey as an artist and to look back at that beginning many years later.

Carson Ellis is the author and illustrator of bestselling picture books Home and Du Iz Tak? (a Caldecott Honor book) and the illustrator of a number of books for children, including The Mysterious Benedict Society series by Trenton Lee Stewart, The Composer Is Dead by Lemony Snicket, and the Wildwood Chronicles by her husband, Colin Meloy. She does work for The New Yorker, the New York Times, and other publications. Ellis lives on a farm in Oregon.

He was also a devoted dramatist. His work on the 1977 Broadway revival of Dracula won him a Tony Award for Best Costume Design and a nomination for Best Scenic Design, and he spent the last thirteen years of his life writing and staging community theater in Cape Cod.

Eliot to John Updike and Virginia Woolf, among many others. His animated credits for the PBS Mystery! series introduced him to millions of television viewers. In addition to his intricate pen-and-ink drawings and darkly humorous storybooks, Gorey also nurtured a lifelong passion for the performing arts.

Responsible not only for landing the first men on the moon in 1969, NASA’s technological research has led to the development of the first weather and communications satellites, over 130 flights within 30 years of space shuttle missions, the landing of rovers on the Mars surface, as well as the establishment with 16 other nations of an International Space Station in 2000. Since the retirement of the space shuttle missions in 2011, NASA has continued its scientific research with several aims, most notably to land humans on Mars and to launch the Next Generation Air Transportation System by 2025, a program to design aircraft that are more fuel efficient and environmentally responsible.

A FEW RULES FOR PREDICTING THE FUTURE

An Essay

BY OCTAVIA E. BUTLER, ILLUSTRATED BY MANZEL BOWMAN

The wise words of science fiction icon Octavia E. Butler live on in this beautiful and giftable little volume.

“There’s no single answer that will solve all our future problems. There’s no magic bullet. Instead there are thousands of answers—at least. You can be one of them if you choose to be.”

Originally published in Essence magazine in the year 2000, Octavia E. Butler’s essay “A Few Rules for Predicting the Future” offers an honest look into the inspiration behind her science fiction novels and the importance of studying history and taking responsibility for our actions if we are to move forward.

Organized into four main rules, this short essay reminds readers to learn from the past, respect the law of consequences, be aware of their perspectives, and count on the surprises. Citing the warning signs of fascism, the illusive effects of fear and wishful thinking, and the unpredictable nature of what is yet to come, Butler shares realistic but hopeful suggestions to shape our future into something good. An inspiring and motivational gift for students and recent graduates, fans of Butler's work, and anyone seeking a brighter day tomorrow, this exquisite gift book includes stunning Afrofuturist artwork by Manzel Bowman alongside the full text of the original essay.

WOODCUT

(Updated Edition)

BY BRYAN NASH GILL, INTRODUCTION BY BILL MCKIBBEN

An awe-inspiring collection of Bryan Nash Gill's large-scale relief prints from cross sections of previously felled trees.

If there is, indeed, nothing lovelier than a tree, Connecticutbased artist Bryan Nash Gill (1961–2013) showed us why. Creating prints from cross sections of trees, Gill revealed the sublime power locked inside their arboreal rings, patterns not only of great beauty but also a year-by-year record of the life and times of the fallen or damaged logs. The artist rescued the wood from the property surrounding his studio and neighboring land, extracted and prepared blocks of various species—including ash, maple, oak, spruce, and willow—and then printed them by carefully following and pressing the contours of the rings until the intricate designs transferred from tree to paper.

Bryan Nash Gill (1961-2013) was born, lived, and worked in Connecticut. He received his BFA from Tulane University with a focus on glassblowing and an MFA from the California College of Art. His work can be found in both private and public collections, and he exhibited regularly in galleries across the United States. He was profiled in Martha Stewart Living and T: TheNew York Times Style Magazine.

These exquisitely detailed prints are collected and published in this updated edition, which now includes a new introduction by Bill McKibben. Also featured are Gill's series of printed lumber and offcuts, such as burls, branches, knots, and scrubs, and an interview with the artist describing his labor-intensive printmaking process. Woodcut will appeal to anybody who appreciates the grandeur and mystery of trees, as well as those who work with wood and marvel at the rich history embedded in its growth.

An exquisite coffee table book in a soothing neutral color palette that invites hours of contemplation.

Where the Black Designers Are

BY CHERYL D. HOLMES-MILLER, FOREWORD BY CRYSTAL WILLIAMS

Celebrated designer, writer, activist, and educator Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller's memoir of a life in advocacy and her journey to answer the question "Where are the Black designers?"

Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller is one of the design field's most respected figures. She is legendary for her decades of scholarship and activism and is known as a touchstone and conscience for the design profession. This long-awaited book documents the history of the question she has been asking for decades: “Where are the Black designers?” along with related questions that are urgent to the design profession: Where did they originate? Where have they been? Why haven't they been represented in design histories and canons?

Holmes-Miller traces her development as a designer and leader, beginning with her own family and its rich multiethnic history. She narrates her experiences as a design student at Rhode Island School of Design, Maryland Institute College of Art, and Pratt, leading up to her oft-cited Pratt thesis examining barriers to success for Black designers.

Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller is the leading voice for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the graphic design industry. Holmes-Miller is an American BIPOC communications designer, writer, artist, activist, and theologian, best known as a design justice advocate and decolonizing historian. She lectures widely, and in 2023–24 was Professor of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Communication Design, ArtCenter College of Design; Distinguished Senior Lecturer in Design at the University of Texas at Austin School of Design and Creative Technologies; lecturer at Howard University; and adjunct at the University of Connecticut.

THE DAY MOON AND EARTH HAD AN ARGUMENT

BY DAVID DUFF, ILLUSTRATED BY NOEMI VOLA

A little rift in one of the most celebrated relationships in the universe is the starting point for a cosmic journey through the Solar System.

Maintaining healthy relationships is hard work. After 4.5 billions years together Moon has had enough of Earth. So she packs her things and sets off to see what the Solar System has to offer. On her heavenly tour from scorching Venus to giant Jupiter, Moon meets Mars and many other moons, plays with Saturn's rings, and avoids stinky Uranus and chilly Neptune. Somewhere at the edge of the cosmos, Moon realizes how much she misses spinning around her longtime friend, Earth, and discovers that there's no place like home. Sometimes what we're looking for is closer than we think.

A fun and practical review of the planets and their characteristics.

UNIVERSAL STORY, TOLD IN A FRESH WAY: An argument between two friends, and one storms off, very relatable! Except this time, the friends are the moon and planet Earth! Explores emotions like anger and the act of forgiveness in accessible ways.

COLORFUL, VIBRANT ILLUSTRATIONS: Noemi Vola's illustrations are truly one-of-a-kind and will grab the attention of children-and adults!-alike

BEING BAD

Breaking the Rules and Becoming Everything You're Not Supposed to Be

BY ARIELLE EGOZI

What happens when you stop giving a f*ck about what your parents, partners, and society expect of you and ask yourself what you really want?

Salon’s inaugural sex and love advice columnist and author of the viral LinkedIn sex work post, Arielle Egozi, shares their journey as a queer, neurodivergent, child of immigrants who never quite fit into the social roles she was supposed to, instead choosing to embrace their multiple dimensions, and eventually discovering freedom—and true power—by being “bad” in a world that kept trying to force her to be “good.”

What if sex positivity wasn’t about having sex at all? What if you ditched relationship hierarchies and explored relationship anarchy? How can everyone get in touch with their inner domme? Using frameworks and philosophies cultivated from years of living, writing, speaking, and educating on sex, relationships, and identity through a queer and decolonizing lens, Egozi offers questions, practices, and tools to help you find your own power, and step into it—creating space for you to dream far beyond what your family, society, or capitalist culture expects. Being Bad offers you the permission to become who you are, however you choose to be.

Arielle Egozi (she/they) is a writer and creative director. Their work is centered on the destigmatization (and celebration) of all bodies, brains, and identities and has been featured globally across major publications like the Washington Post, Business Insider, and Vice. She shares a bed with her two perrhijos and partner.

LOST & FOUND

Nine life-changing lessons about stuff from someone who lost everything

BY HELEN CHANDLER-WILDE

Why do we buy and keep the things we do, and how can we live a less cluttered life? Journalist Helen Chandler-Wilde dives deep to explore, explain, and guide us on the path to liberation from the tyranny of “too much.”

On New Year's Eve of 2018, Helen Chandler-Wilde lost everything she owned in a storage unit fire in Croydon, England, where she'd stowed all her possessions after a big breakup. She was left devastated and forced to re-evaluate her relationship with owning material things.

In Lost & Found, she offers a profound mix of memoir, selfhelp, and journalism toexplore the psychological reasons, sociological quirks of human nature, and fascinating science behind why we buy and hold onto things. Helen interviews people from all walks of life, including behavioral psychologists on the science of nostalgia, a nun on what it's like to own almost nothing, and consumer psychologists on why we spend impulsively, to help us better understand why we're surrounded by clutter and what we can do to change it.

By the end of this smart-thinking book filled with lessons and engaging prompts to help us gain perspective on our buying habits and the value we place on what we already have, your relationship with your belongings will be changed forever. The perfect “new year, new you” read or gift for anyone who is downsizing, striving for a more sustainable lifestyle, or is eager to cultivate a minimalist mindset.

Helen Chandler-Wilde is a news and features journalist at Bloomberg. Previously, she worked at The Telegraph writing long-reads, analyses, and coverage of the human tales behind the headlines. She studied social sciences and Italian at UCL and holds an MA in journalism from City University.

PARTY OF ONE

Be Your Own Best Life Partner

BY MEGHAN KEANE, ILLUSTRATED BY LA JOHNSON

A warm, witty, and affirming self-help guide to learning how to get to know and love yourself, becoming your own soulmate, and living a fulfilling life whether you partner or not, from the creator of NPR’s Life Kit.

Meghan Keane spent most of her adult life without being in a serious, long-term relationship, and for much of that time, being single wasn’t something she celebrated or particularly enjoyed. Sick of feeling anxious or sad when she received yet another wedding invitation without a plus one, she decided she was going to mindfully shift her perspective. Luckily, Meghan is the founder of NPR’s self-improvement brand, Life Kit, so she consulted the experts, and what she learned changed her mindset—and her life.

Party of One is the self-help book Meghan wished she’d had from the start—a deeply researched, encouraging guide to bridging the gap between knowing that being single is awesome and feeling and embodying it. Inside, you’ll find practical advice for strengthening your self-compassion and inner resilience, practices for stopping rumination cycles, scripts for dealing with nosy friends and relatives, thoughtful prompts to support you on your journey, and much more.

Meghan Keane is the founder and managing producer for NPR's Life Kit, a podcast and radio show that brings listeners advice and actionable information about personal finances, health, parenting, relationships, and more. Prior to founding Life Kit, Keane was a producer for NPR's awardwinning podcast Invisibilia and a founding producer of NPR's TED Radio Hour, one of NPR's top podcasts since its debut.

Since then, hundreds of classic films have featured clothing from Palace over the years, including Bonnie and Clyde, Chinatown, and The Godfather, to name just a few.

LAST DAYS OF SUMMER

California Skateboarding Archive 1975–1978

BY HUGH HOLLAND

Explore the captivating world of 1970s California skateboarding through Hugh Holland's lens in Last Days of Summer. This complete archive, enriched with many never-before-seen images, an introduction by acclaimed artist Shepard Fairey, and extensive interviews, unveils the evolution of a legendary subculture and the photographer who documented it all.

From 1975 to 1978, Hugh Holland immortalized the burgeoning subculture of skateboarding in California, photographing young sidewalk surfers on the streets of Los Angeles, parts of the San Fernando Valley, Venice Beach, and as far away as San Francisco and Baja California. In four short years, he documented the rise of the sport before it became officially sanctioned and permanently changed by commercialization, brand sponsorships, and safety precautions like helmets and knee pads. In hindsight, this time period held a wild and free innocence that Holland captured beautifully.

His images, from suburban backyard haunts to the asphalt streets that connected them, still resonate as an important document of this time and place where legendary Dogtown and Z-Boys skateboarders were just beginning. With their requisite bleachblond hair, tanned bodies, tube socks, and Vans sneakers, these young outsiders are masterfully captured against a sometimes harsh but always sunny Southern California landscape.

A marvelous exploration of the special relationship children find with the natural world and the fascination and friendship they find in special rocks, from poet Mary Lyn Ray and artist Felicita Sala.

Somewhere, a rock is waiting for you. One just the right color for your windowsill, or just the right shape for drawing a face.

Maybe it is a rock from the heart of a mountain that will remind you of how big YOU are inside, too. Maybe it is a rock washed by the sea that knows all about the backs and forths and ups and downs of things. Maybe it is a small rock, just the right size to close your hand around and know that the rock is with you and it is just right.

Through vibrant illustration and evocative text, When You Find the Right Rock carries readers along on a journey of discovery, from the mountains to the sea, that’s all about learning the beauty of being in the moment, connecting with nature, and the thrill of finding a precious keepsake to call your own.

How does an amphibian cross the road? With the help of the Amphibian Migration Team! Learn all about a citizen scientist who acts as a crossing guard for migrating amphibians and helps build them a tunnel to safety in this delightful nonfiction picture book!

From Kari Percival, Ezra Jack Keats Award-winning author of How to Say Hello to a Worm, comes an entertaining and informative children’s book perfect for curious, nature-loving young readers.

Every spring, frogs and salamanders must travel from wooded uplands where they were born to vernal pools where they will mate.

But with the help of the Amphibian Migration Team, there is hope for a safe crossing!

Readers will learn so much about amphibians and their habitats and get a great introduction to civic participation, too. The citizen scientist at the heart of this story presents her proposal for a wildlife tunnel to her local City Council and coordinates with stakeholders in the process like a wildlife biologist, a herpetologist, a roadway engineer, a surveyor, the Conservation Commission, the Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Department of Transportation, contractors, and reporters. It’s a fascinating way to find out how local government works and how kids can actively create social change.

JELLA LEPMAN AND HER LIBRARY OF DREAMS

The Woman Who Rescued a Generation of Children and Founded the World’s Largest Children’s Library

BY KATHERINE PATERSON, ILLUSTRATED BY SALLY DENG

The inspiring true story of how one visionary woman used children's books to help heal a generation of Germany's children after WWII and went on to set up the International Youth Library and IBBY, International Board on Books for Young People.

Jella Lepman was a woman who stood her ground, challenged convention, and worked fiercely to transform her biggest dreams into reality.

In 1945, when Jella was tasked with what seemed like an insurmountable challenge-to create a haven of imagination and joy for the children of a Germany scarred by war, she turned to a steadfast companion: books. As a Jewish woman who had fled from the Nazis, Jella was determined to restore a sense of childhood to the young people who had only known conflict and violence. Despite constant obstacles, Jella persevered. With the help of publishers and children from around the world, Jella collected an extraordinary collection of 4,000 children's books in pursuit of her mission to promote peace. The roving literary collection would eventually find a home as the International Youth Library in Munich, now with over 600,000 items, the largest collection of children's books and materials in the world.

MAKE A PRETTY SOUND

A Story of Ella Jenkins—The First Lady of Children's Music

BY TRACI N. TODD, ILLUSTRATED BY ELEANOR DAVIS

Once upon a time, children's music was just Mother Goose, nursery songs, and lullabies. And then came Ella Jenkins.

Ella Jenkins is an American folk singer and living legend dubbed “The First Lady of Children’s Music.” For nearly 70 years, she has been writing and performing music that has entertained and engaged generations of young listeners. In Make a Pretty Song, Ella’s life and legacy are captured in vibrant sights, sounds, and stories that leap right off the page.

Born in St. Louis, Missouri, and raised in Chicago, Ella grew up loving music of all kinds—the call-and-response of Cab Calloway, the exciting rhythms of Moroccan and Indian records spun in a local record shop, the bluesy notes her uncle teased from his harmonica. She listened to music from around the world, and no matter what language it was in, she could feel what it meant—the bridge in understanding and feeling that music offers from one heart to another.

Traci N. Todd is the award-winning author of several books for children, including Nina: A Story of Nina Simone, illustrated by Christian Robinson, and Holding Her Own: The Exceptional Life of Jackie Ormes, illustrated by Shannon Wright. She still remembers jumping on her childhood bed (don’t tell Mom!) and listening to Ella Jenkins records on her little orange-and-white record player. A Chicago native, she now writes and edits in Queens, New York.

Eleanor Davis is an illustrator and cartoonist who has created award-winning work for both adults and children. She has a baby, to whom she loves to sing. She lives in Athens, Georgia.

When she began working with children, she knew just what to do. She knew music would offer children a kinetic learning experience that engaged them physically, verbally, and empathetically, creating community out of song. Soon, she was recording her own albums and became an international star.

BY ELIZABETH PARTRIDGE, ILLUSTRATED BY ELLEN HECK

The Golden Gate Bridge, beloved landmark and symbol of San Francisco, finally gets a gorgeous picture book that tells the thrilling story of how it was built! Written by National Book Award finalist and Sibert Medal winner Elizabeth Partridge.

Across a treacherous strait where deep ocean waters rip back and forth with the tides, and during the depths of the Great Depression, daring teams of engineers and builders set out to make something many thought impossible.

Begun in 1933 and officially opened on May 27, 1937, the Golden Gate Bridge and its awe-inspiring and groundbreaking construction are truly a testament to the power of hope and perseverance. Told from the point of view of the lighthouse keeper’s kids, who watch in fascination as the trucks and crews arrive and steel towers coated in heavy red paint begin to rise above the tempestuous water, Golden Gate shares a thrilling visual perspective on each stage of the breathtaking project.

Young readers can look and learn as each turn of the page reveals dazzling, color-soaked artwork paired with text that blends factual details into the narrators’ keen observations. By the final spread, where fireworks explode in celebration over the mighty bridge, the tale is complete—not only of an astonishing feat of engineering but of the potential of human ingenuity to defy the odds and make the impossible possible.

STELLA & MARIGOLD

BY ANNIE BARROWS, ILLUSTRATED BY SOPHIE BLACKALL

From the creatorsof the New York Times–bestselling Ivy + Bean comes a fun and funny new series about two small sisters with very big imaginations.

Generations of readers have fallen in love with Ivy + Bean, which has sold over 8 million copies and been adapted into a popular Netflix Original Film series. Now, bestselling author Annie Barrows and illustrator Sophie Blackall are back with the first book in a bright new series about a pair of sisters named Stella and Marigold.

Stella, who’s seven, is kind, a good storyteller, and ponders big questions like, what do animals think of people? Marigold, at four, tells imaginative stories (her mother calls them “fibs”) and likes to wear her favorite Halloween costume year-round. Stella and Marigold do all the regular things—like going to school, playing, getting sick sometimes, and visiting the zoo—but even the most regular things have a secret side.

Sure to delight fans of Ivy and Bean, these adventure tales— animated with full-color illustrations of the sisters’ encounters with magical bathrooms, snow monkeys, dream lions, howling wolves, a lost Vice President, and much more—are filled with vibrant characters, creative storytelling, and a whole lot of laughs.

After Dinner Amusements: Guess That Name!

50 Cards with 250 Famous Figures

Pull a card and try to figure out the historical, fictional, or celebrity names your teammates are clueing you into in this fast-paced guessing game! Split the players into teams of two. One player draws a card and holds it to their forehead without reading it. Their teammate picks one of the five names on the card and tries to help their partner guess it as quickly as possible within one minute. If they get the right name fast, they can continue with the other two names on the card or take a new card and continue to play. After one minute, play switches to the next team. The team with the most correct answers wins!
