Sylvia Long’s Thumbelina By Sylvia Long

From best-selling artist Sylvia Long comes an exquisite version of Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved tale about a thumb-size girl and her largerthan-life adventures. Jewel-toned paintings depict the story’s settings— from light and airy meadows to Mole’s dark and dismal underground home—while whimsical details bring the classic cast of characters to life and make this storytime favorite a visual feast. Sylvia Long is the award-winning illustrator of many books for children, including Sylvia Long’s Mother Goose and An Egg Is Quiet. Her detailed paintings are inspired by her love of animals and the outdoors. She lives in Scottsdale, Arizona.

One Too Many A Seek & Find Counting Book

By Gianna Marino

In this boisterous barnyard, the fun grows with each turn of the page. One bouncing flea is joined by two cows, then three horses, and so on, all the way up to twelve swooping bats. Children will delight in following the shimmering path of the flea, counting each bounce along the way to find the new arrival. Older readers can take the challenge further, counting all the animals on the page, or hunting for their favorite. And a surprise ending reveals which animal is just one too many! This frisky hodgepodge is sure to have the whole herd roaring with laughter and pouring over the pages for hours. Gianna Marino is a full-time illustrator, toy designer, and writer in the San Francisco Bay Area. She has had an interest in animals since early childhood and has been painting since she could hold a brush. Learn more at www.giannamarino.com.

We both hush then, and I feel a frisson, something cold trickling at my center, drip after drip. I reach out for Hadley’s arm, even though I’m angry at her for waking me, for dragging me out into the woods, for calling the killer to us with her bravado. It seems like wherever he is now, whatever pickup truck he’s driving, whatever bar fight he’s fighting, whichever back alley he’s lurking in, his path will bend to us, curving along the line of her voice. As I reach for Hadley, she’s reaching for me, too. When we see what we’re both doing, we laugh at how we’ve spooked ourselves, and it feels like a regular slumber party again, as if we’ve indulged in nothing more serious than scary stories. It would have been something if the killer had come crashing through the woods right then and there. You wouldn’t believe it, not even in a story. In reality, it takes almost an hour more before he arrives.

The Space Between Trees By Katie Williams

Not your everyday coming-of-age novel . . . This story was supposed to be about Enid—how she hasn’t made a friend in years, how she tends to stretch the truth (especially about her so-called relationship with college drop-out Jonah Luks), and how she finally comes into her own once she learns to just be herself—but it isn’t. Because when her classmate Elizabeth “Zabet” McCabe’s murdered body is found in the woods, everything changes . . . and Enid’s life is never the same again. Katie Williams is a graduate of the MFA program at the University of Texas at Austin and has published numerous short stories for adults. She lives in San Francisco, where she currently teaches writing at the Academy of Art. This is her first young adult novel.

Sparky The Life and Art of Charles Schulz

By Beverly Gherman

As the artist behind the beloved Peanuts comic strip for more than 50 years, Charles Schulz—arguably the most famous cartoonist in the world— created a colorful cast of characters that continues to bring humor and comfort to millions of readers. In this distinctively designed yet highly accessible book, renowned children’s biographer Beverly Gherman traces both the life events that shaped Schulz’s art and the various ways in which art influenced his life in return. Acclaimed by artists ranging from Andrew Wyeth to Mo Willems, the artistic elements of Schulz’s work are brought to life in a colorful layout and thoroughly explored in an enchanting text that will draw in even the most reluctant readers.

I skipped the ball off a few tree trunks and ran to scoop it up. But with one poorly aimed throw, it bounced into a nearby bush. I dropped on all fours to search for it, but couldn’t see much in the shadows of the grove. When I stretched my arm into the tangled underbrush, it got caught in the branches. “Ouch!” I removed my arm swiftly and surveyed the small scrapes across my wrist and elbow. A light breeze caressed my cuts. I heard whispers bounce off the trees, and had a strange feeling I wasn’t alone. Whoosh, whoosh. And after the faintest whoosh, one word echoed clearly across the grove: Come. I pressed my back against the tree and scanned the area. “Who’s there?” I called. Come . . . The breeze wrapped itself around me. I started to make a run for it but then I remembered my baseball nudged under that nasty bush. I couldn’t bear the thought of leaving it there, not overnight. Just as I was about to reach into the thorny branches again, it rolled out from under the bush on its own.

Tortilla Sun By Jennifer Cervantes

When twelve-year-old Izzy discovers a beat-up baseball marked with the words “Because . . . magic” while unpacking in yet another new apartment, she is determined to figure out what it means. What secrets does this old ball have to tell? Her mom certainly isn’t sharing any—especially when it comes to Izzy’s father, who died before Izzy was born. But when she spends the summer in her Nana’s remote New Mexico village, Izzy discovers longburied secrets that come alive in an enchanted landscape of watermelon mountains, whispering winds, and tortilla suns. Infused with the flavor of the southwest and sprinkled with just a pinch of magic, this heartfelt middle grade debut is as rich and satisfying as Nana’s homemade enchiladas.

Noonie’s Masterpiece By Lisa Railsback

Illustrated by Sarajo Frieden

Fantastic illustrations with a fresh, contemporary look enrich this debut novel about a 10-year-old aspiring artist stuck living with an aunt, uncle, and cousin who clearly don’t recognize her genius. A humorous and heartfelt reminder that “a brilliant artist is never afraid,” this book reveals that sometimes our greatest masterpieces are the bonds we unexpectedly forge with the people in our lives. Lisa Railsback was a Jerome Fellow at the Playwrights’ Center in Minneapolis and a Michener Fellow in Writing at the University of Texas at Austin. Her plays have been performed across the United States. Noonie’s Masterpiece was originally a play. She lives in Austin, Texas.

Sarajo Frieden is an illustrator and fine artist whose work has been exhibited in galleries all over the world. Her work appears frequently in magazines and art venues, and her clients range from the New Yorker to UNICEF. Visit her Web site at sarajofrieden.com.

You Can Do It Too! I Can Do It Too! By Karen Baicker • Illustrated by Ken Wilson-Max

These heartwarming stories remind us how satisfying it is to grow up surrounded by love. I Can Do It Too! affirms a little girl’s growing independence as she, too, can begin to do all the things she sees her parents, relatives and neighbors do: pouring juice at breakfast, strumming a guitar, and even riding a bike! In You Can Do It Too! she passes newly won skills and abilities to a younger brother, teaching him everything she thinks he needs to know. The simple cadence of text and direct-to-the-heart art result in two books as warm and generous as their message, providing reading pleasure for toddlers, older siblings, and the grown-ups who love them.

Moon bears climb tall trees with a leap.

Bears! Bears! Bears! By Bob Barner

Everyone’s favorite bears (and some you may have never met before) fish, munch, dive, cuddle, and climb their way through this playful romp. The simple rhyming text is enhanced with fun facts about new cubs (pandas are born no bigger than a stick of butter!) and bears around the world (the spectacled bear is the only species native to South America), while Bob Barner’s richly textured paper collage illustrations bring the bears of the world to life. Budding ursinologists will bearly be able to contain themselves—this book is sure to leave them roaring for more! Bob Barner is an award-winning author and illustrator of numerous nonfiction books for children. When he’s not working on books, Bob likes to present his work to schools and libraries around the world. He lives in San Francisco with his wife, Cathie. Learn more at www.bobbarner.com.

“A film animator for James and the Giant Peach makes his children’s book debut with this entertaining, deliciously quirky chronicle…. Innovative designs and varied font sizes add to the fun of this offbeat offering.” —Kirkus Reviews Washington Post Top Ten for Children 2006
