Love Poems by Cats

• By Francesco Marciuliano

From the author of the beloved I Could Pee on This series comes a new book of hilarious love poems from cats to their people. Cats have so many ways to say “I love you.” Sometimes it’s a gentle purr and a slow blink. Sometimes it’s a tiny dead animal offered in tribute. And sometimes, it’s expressed in that deepest of cat love languages: poetry. The author of the internationally bestselling series of tongue-in-cheek poetry helps cats put paw to keyboard to express the depth of their feline feelings in odes to breakfasts (on time, please!), ripped-up rugs (it’s a sign of affection!), the importance of keeping watch in the bathroom, and the perfect cardboard box that the expensive and totally ignored new cat bed arrived in. Illustrated by adorable and goofy cat photos, this book is the purrfect combination of snarky and sweet that every cat person knows is cat for true love.

FUNGI COLLECTED IN SHROPSHIRE AND OTHER NEIGHBOURHOODS

A Victorian Woman’s Illustrated Field Notes

By M. F. Lewis • Foreword by Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian, PhD

This one-of-a-kind, keepsake volume celebrates the timeless fascination of fungi. Very little is known about pioneering female mycologist M. F. Lewis—not even her first name. Mysterious, prolific, and deeply enamored with the world of mushrooms, she left us a treasure trove of mycological illustrations. For over 40 years, from 1860 to 1902, Lewis rambled across England and Wales, recording an astonishing biodiversity of fungi. Her delicately drawn, boldly colored images evoke the strange and powerful beauty of this kingdom. This handsome volume collects hundreds of Lewis’s watercolors, contextualized by a foreword from mycologist Patricia Ononiwu Kaishian, PhD. It’s a must-have for today’s mushroom lovers who are curious about the history of mycology and for any admirer of vintage botanical illustration.

THE LEAGUE OF LADY POISONERS

Illustrated True Stories of Dangerous Women

By and illustrated by Lisa Perrin

Foreword by Holly Frey and Maria Trimarchi

This riveting and well-researched volume by Lisa Perrin weaves together the stories of more than 25 accused women poisoners, exploring the circumstances and skill sets that led them to lives of crime. You might find yourself rooting for some of them— like Sally Bassett, who helped poison her granddaughter’s enslavers in Bermuda. Other stories, though—including that of Yiya Murano, one of Argentina’s most notorious swindlers and serial killers—may prove less palatable. Organized into thematic chapters based on the women’s motives, the book also includes an illustrated primer that delves into the origins and effects of common poisons throughout history, as well as a foreword by Holly Frey and Maria Trimarchi, creators and hosts of the podcast Criminalia. The deluxe case design features glimmering metallic golds and greens, as well as gilded page edges. It is a treat for true crime fans and feminist history buffs.

Who on earth blends a smoothie at this hour? Could they be running a secret nightclub from their bedroom? Finally, here is a laughout-loud book that feels your pain.

LUKE MCGARRY is a British-born cartoonist, animator, and musician, currently residing in Los Angeles’s noisiest apartment building. He has been furnished with several illustration awards from the National Cartoonists Society, and one cease and desist letter from the City of Santa Monica. McGarry’s clients include The New Yorker, Playboy, and MAD magazine.

LIVABLE LUXE

By Brigette Romanek

Foreword by Gwyneth Paltrow

This aspirational collection of Brigette Romanek’s distinctive residential interiors highlights luxurious yet casual homes in places ranging from Los Angeles to New York. Also included are commercial projects, furniture, and lighting designs, all of which embody the essence of Livable Luxe.

Romanek’s aesthetic blend of both the high-end and the accessible, or as she calls it, “Gucci meets Gap,” is a refreshing approach and fully apparent in her own beautiful home in Laurel Canyon in Los Angeles.

Extensively featured in Livable Luxe are the homes of her wellknown clients who admire and seek her design expertise in creating spaces that evoke a laid-back-yet-elegant feel. Gwyneth Paltrow is a close friend and client, and she has also penned the foreword. Romanek has created stunning designs for several of Paltrow’s homes, including her stunning Montecito home featured here.

BRIGETTE ROMANEK is an award-winning interior designer based in Los Angeles. She has been named in Architectural Digest’s coveted AD100 list for several years in a row as well as in Elle Decor’s “A List.” Her star-studded clientele includes Gwyneth Paltrow, Beyoncé and Jay Z, and Christian Bale, to name just a few. Romanek has also created a custom line of furniture and lighting for Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams.

GWYNETH PALTROW is an Academy Award–winning actress and the founder of the renowned lifestyle brand Goop.

LIVING BRIGHT

Matthew Williamson

Think beige, grey, and white are the only neutrals? Think again. As a lifelong fan of rich jewel tones, fashion-designer-turnedinteriors-expert Matthew Williamson makes the case for living cocooned in color. Pink can be subtle, warming, and very livable; while used sparingly, fiery red can get you going. Let Williamson help you find your style DNA, and you’ll soon be getting out the paintbrush and turning bland corners of your home into a technicolor paradise.

Packed with inspirational images of interior decorating projects, including Williamson’s own homes in London and Mallorca, as well as visual references that will transport you to places close to his heart, Living Bright is the hardworking handbook to take on your journey to colorful living.

MATTHEW WILLIAMSON is a British designer known for his love of pattern and color. Starting out in fashion in the mid-1990s, Williamson and his eponymous brand have recently pivoted toward interior design. Williamson designs joyful rooms and homewares inspired by his love of travel.

Randolph Caldecott and the Rambunctious Coming-of-Age of Children’s Books

By Michelle Markel • Illustrated by Barbara McClintock

From acclaimed picture book creators Michelle Markel and Barbara McClintock comes a lively, humorous, and energetically informative biography that celebrates the spirit of storytelling in art. Quick! If you don’t move fast, you’ll miss him—there he goes—Randolph Caldecott, future famous illustrator. His sketchbook is full of hurly-burly: wild weather, frisky animals, and people so sprightly they can barely hold onto the pages. But in the 1850s, there are no children’s books like that. Not yet. Many books are published, but their pictures look stiff, full of pretty poses and cluttered scenery. No one has imagined how much fun an illustrated book could be, because the future hero of children’s book illustration is still just a lad. Join in for a riotous adventure through the seminal history of children’s books— their art, their joy, and the man who changed them for good.

WHAT DO BROTHAS DO ALL DAY?

By Ajuan Mance

Inspired by Richard Scarry’s What Do People Do All Day?, these joyous portraits of Black men engaged in everyday life celebrate the deep roots and rich cultures of African American communities. Author-illustrator Ajuan Mance created What Do Brothas Do All Day? in response to children’s innate curiosity about the activities and experiences of others, but also to meet the longing many kids have for characters and communities that look and feel like the people and places they know. This is a gift for Black kids who rarely see themselves reflected in the pages of a book and an affirmation of their world and the people who populate it. From grocery shopping and waiting for a trim at the barbershop to singing, dancing, and laughing with friends, Mance captures the beauty in the ordinary, affirming the enduring strength of the Black community.

I WANT 100 DOGS

By Stacy McAnulty • Illustrated by Claire Keane

In this funny, feel-good first-pet book, one aspiring dog owner and her parents ponder—in wildly imaginative and hilarious detail—all the best and worst outcomes of bringing home more dogs than you can (literally) shake a stick at. A young girl proclaims, “I want 100 dogs.” In a twist, her parents agree, but they have just one question: Where will 100 dogs sleep? Our protagonist revises her request to 90 dogs. But how does one walk 90 dogs? A silly, subtractive counting tale and an over-the-top ode to the joys (and woes) of canine company, this sweet and surprising story proves that no matter how boundless your enthusiasm, when it comes to finding the perfect pet, sometimes less really is more. Written by bestselling author Stacy McAnulty and illustrated with vintage flair by Claire Keane, this clever and funny picture book will be a new favorite for readers and pet lovers everywhere—whether you have no dogs, one dog, or one dog too many!

GRIEF IS AN ELEPHANT

By Tamara Ellis Smith

Illustrated by Nancy Whitesides

An imaginative and heartfelt book that reminds us that there is no loss without love. When Grief first arrives, it is like an elephant—so big that there is hardly room for anything else. But over time, Grief can become smaller and smaller—first a deer, then a fox, a mouse, and finally a flickering firefly in the darkness leading us down a path of loving remembrance. This lyrical work is an empathetic and comforting balm for anyone who is experiencing grief, be it grieving the loss of a loved one or losses in the world around us.

NOTHING EVER HAPPENS ON A GRAY DAY

By Grant Snider

With fantastic bursts of color and lyricism, Grant Snider explores the extraordinary within the ordinary in this ode to seemingly boring days and the wonders that emerge for anyone open to seeing them. The sky is gloomy, but perhaps all that’s required for adventure is a bit of curiosity and patience. After all, an everyday stroll can become an adventure in the blink of an eye. On a day when even the rain is too bored to fall, ride alongside a girl on her rickety bicycle through the familiar scenes of her neighborhood as she rediscovers the colors—a splash of yellow, a flash of red, a flutter of blue—that can be found even when all seems monochrome. In this artful picture book that celebrates do-nothing days and solitary adventures, readers learn how embracing quiet stillness with openness and curiosity can make space for unexpected encounters, meaningful detours, and some of life’s most unforgettable moments.

Meet Gumluck the Wizard, the star of a new chapter book series by the inimitable Adam Rex! This is a story about magic, if you like that kind of thing. It is also a story about a ghost with amnesia, an unpopular fairy, an ungrateful little town, and an extremely wise and helpful raven (who happens to be a pretty talented storyteller).

In this tall tale about a short wizard, celebrated author Adam Rex proves once and for all that the biggest heroes often come in the smallest nightgowns.

“Anna E. Jordan’s debut novel has everything: a storybook setting, a classic setup, and not one but two heroines on a daring and dramatic dual mission to achieve their dreams. The charming cast of supporting characters are the cherries on the top (or, more accurately, pickles on the side) of a dish that will leave readers very satisfied.”

SHIRA & ESTHER’S DOUBLE DREAM DEBUT

By Anna E. Jordan

When Shira and Esther first meet, they can hardly believe their eyes. It’s like looking in a mirror! But even though they may look identical, the two girls couldn’t be more different. Shira dreams of singing and dancing onstage, but her father, a stern and pious rabbi, thinks Shira should be reading prayers, not plays. Esther dreams of studying Torah, but her mother, a glamorous stage performer, wishes Esther would spend more time rehearsing and less time sneaking off to read books. Oy vey! If only the two could switch places. . . .

FREE THROWS, FRIENDSHIP, AND OTHER THINGS WE FOULED UP

By Jenn Bishop

Competitive basketball takes center court in this fast-paced novel about two girls finding the truth about themselves—and their families. Rory’s life revolves around basketball. Her dad just secured a new coaching gig at the University of Cincinnati, so it means yet another school and move for her, only this time to her dad’s hometown. Abby has always lived in Cincinnati, where her dad grew up playing ball and now coaches at Xavier University. But Abby has recently retreated from basketball with her confidence in shambles. Now she finds herself on the outside looking in and could seriously use a new friend. The coaches’ daughters connect over their shared love of basketball, but Abby’s dad practically forbids their friendship because of something that happened between him and Rory’s dad when they were younger. Can the two girls get to the bottom of what happened between their dads before history repeats itself?

Death and Sparkles never imagined they would become besties. And they didn’t expect to get pulled into another wild adventure. But when Sparkles’s horn begins to glow mysteriously and the pair discovers a message left by his unicorn parents, Death reluctantly follows Sparkles on a search to find out what it all means. Sparkles is 100 percent sure the answer will be revealed through some hard-hitting, epic dance moves. With nothing but golden cupcake bling as their compass, they embark on a journey into the depths of the sewers. Wacky chaos ensues once again for the BFFs as a unicorn, a grim reaper, and a group of vengeance-driven mole men hoping to steal Sparkles’s golden cupcake face off!

BEN Y AND THE GHOST IN THE MACHINE

The Kids Under the Stairs •

By K.A. Holt

The second book in the Kids Under the Stairs series is now available in paperback! A heartwarming, laugh-out-loud novelin-verse that tells an authentic story about friendship, family, and personal identity. Ben Y’s just about had it with school. Even her best buds—Ben B, Jordan J, and Javier, the kids under the stairs—all seem far too content following the rules. And home’s no better. Last year, Ben Y’s older brother died, and the family is still very much learning how to cope—if by coping you mean coming home to cry at lunch or obsessively visiting a chatroom to talk to Benicio’s ghost. But when Benicio suddenly starts typing back, Ben Y must act—fast. What happens when buried family feelings are exposed and Ben Y’s own deepest secrets become impossible to hide? With a lovable cast of characters and full of raw emotion, this dynamic novel shows how every kid deserves to become their own “divergent” self.

“Holt’s sequel digs into Ben Y’s journey grappling with grief and identity. The novel hits the important points of understanding and verbalizing what one is feeling. . . . An excellent addition to the Kids Under the Stairs series and one that kids and adults alike will supremely enjoy.”

School Library Journal, starred review

“An emotionally charged, dynamic novel in verse. This focused character study delivers layered attention to grief and self-exploration. Multiple formats, including chat messages in the Minecraft-like Sandbox, combined with extraordinary pacing make this a win for reluctant readers, while the humor and emotional reach will draw in anyone interested in middle-grade emotional realism. With minimal physical descriptions, names cue ethnic diversity. Accomplished, lively, and heartfelt.”
