Don’t miss the new adventure of this
very special Wolf!
A very poetic picture book dealing with
the magical power of music. How far
will music make you travel?
The Wolf is very excited—it’s almost his birthday! This year, he’s decided to
organize a big party to celebrate. However, when he announces his plan, his
friends don’t seem very enthusiastic about it. In a fit of rage, the Wolf storms
off . . . and that’s when things get complicated!
Orianne Lallemand has had her work published by numerous publishers. A lover of
books and writing, she spends her time writing stories and conducting book workshops
in schools and libraries.
Eleonore Thuillier was a fashion designer for a well-k nown Parisian label. She left
her career to dedicate herself to illustrating books for children. She is the illustrator of
numerous published titles.
Mazort Fugus is not a conductor like the others. When you are attending
his concerts, you never know where you’ll end up! His music is literally
making you travel to places where—it is said—you can hear the beat of the
Earth. Some say the sky was dancing with ocean and others even say the
wind was blowing with the flowers. So, are you ready to take off? How far
will music make you travel?
Perrine Joe is a French author whose words are found in children’s books. Her texts
are always very poetic and invite the readers to a world full of imagination and new
landscapes.
Elice in French means “propeller.” This young illustrator chose this pseudonym because
she’s always thinking about hundreds of ideas at the same time. This is also the reason
why she decided to illustrate Perrine Joe’s story about music. She uses traditional picture
technique.

It’s out-of-the-cave pre-hysterical
adventures for Mo and Jo in the
sequel to the Jump-Into-Chapters title
Meet Mo and Jo.
Praise for The Boulder Brothers: Meet Mo and Jo:
“Sure to leave young fans demanding more! More Mo! More Jo!”—Booklist
“A limited vocabulary, oversized font, and lots of word repetition will
quickly build readers’ confidence, and the goofy mini-plots and earthy
humor will have them looking for the sequel.”—The Bulletin of the Center
for Children’s Books
Cave-boys Mo and Jo are back with more out-of-the-cave, pre-hysterical
adventures. They learn to fly (briefly), hunt (kind of), and try to decide
which Boulder is the bravest brother (hmm . . .) in this follow-up to
The Boulder Brothers: Meet Mo and Jo. The shenanigans of this fun-loving
duo will surely delight kids, especially boys.
This title is the latest addition to Blue Apple’s Jump-Into-Chapters series,
which are readers created to fill the gap between picture books and textheavy chapter books.

Roosters cock-a-doodle-do. Can you
cock-a-doodle, too? Here’s a book that
invites kids to make noise!
In farmyards, jungles, and oceans, almost every animal has something to
say! Roosters cock-a-doodle-do. Can you cock-a-doodle, too? Here’s a book
that invites kids to make some noise. Young readers will love the interactive
experience of reading about, then mimicking, animal sounds.
And as kids say honk, squawk, moo, and whoo, they’ll be learning, too!
Science and nature facts are featured in sidebars—why do whales sing? What
does a rooster want us to know? This unique combination of language arts,
science, and noisy fun is a dynamic duet with cacophonous kid-appeal.

A three-dimensional, fold-out doll’s
house in outrageous, contemporary
colors and designs, creating a portable
fun-house for young design enthusiasts.
This deceptively slim book unfolds to become a striking three-d imensional
doll’s house, featuring four rooms: kitchen, living room, bedroom, and
garage. Pop out elements add a level of interactivity, but children are invited
to use their own toys and imagination to furnish the space and engage with
it as they wish. Perfect for travel and for easy storage, this is an eye-catching
book designed to fit into the modern lifestyles of design-savvy parents.
Annu Kilpelainen is a rising illustration star; her distinctive style and bold color palette
can be seen on textiles and murals around the United Kingdom. Here, her drawings make
the doll’s house come alive with wild contemporary décor and brilliant colors.

passport, this little book offers a
range of delightful activities for young

child’s likes and dislikes.

feel of a real passport, this delightful travel activity book will offer kids
endless entertainment for those interminable hours waiting at the airport.
Activities include drawing the logos on plane tails, identifying different
time zones, designing a flag for a made-up country, saying “hello” in thirty
different languages, and filling in a boarding pass.
All this is immaculately packaged, with a tear-out sheet of stamps and a
tiny folder attached to the inside back cover containing a miniature teddy
passport adding extra charm. Perfect for design-savvy young globetrotters.

The bittersweet odyssey of a boy
coming of age in a landscape broken
by drugs, crime, and corruption.
Thirteen-year-old Boli and his friends are deep in the middle of a game of
marbles. An older boy named Mosca has won the prized Devil’s Fire marble.
His pals are jealous and want to win it away from him. This is Izayoc, the
place of tears, a small pueblo in a tiny valley west of Mexico City where
nothing much happens. It’s a typical hot Sunday morning except that on the
way to church someone discovers the severed head of Enrique Quintanilla
propped on the ledge of one of the cement planters in the plaza and
everything changes. Not apocalyptic changes, like phalanxes of men riding
on horses with stingers for tails, but subtle ones: poor neighbors turning
up with brand-new SUVs, pimpled teens with fancy girls hanging off them.
Boli’s parents leave for Toluca and don’t arrive at their destination. No one
will talk about it. A washed out masked wrestler turns up one day, a man only
interested in finding his next meal. Boli hopes to inspire the luchador to set
out with him to find his parents.
Phillippe Diederich was born in the Dominican Republic and raised in Mexico City and
Miami. His parents were forced out of Haiti by the dictatorship of Papa Doc Duvalier
in 1963. As a photojournalist, Diederich has traveled extensively through Mexico and

Junior year. Derrick Bowen has put in two good years getting ready for this
season. He put in the work and earned his coach’s trust and his role as the
starting point guard for Marion East. Marion has never won the Indiana
state championship, but this year the team is Derrick’s. And Derrick is good.
Opponents worry when Derrick—D-Bow when he’s pounding the rock—
steps onto the court. Major colleges work feverishly to recruit him. Derrick is
ready to run teams off the court.
If only he could get on the court and stay on it.
Old school coach Bolden suspends Derrick for the first game of the
season after Derrick’s best friend Wes gets busted for carrying a joint while
in Derrick’s car. Even after that, Marion High’s team just doesn’t quite click.
They don’t want to follow Derrick’s lead as the squad’s dominant player.
Dissension and selfishness are threatening to tear the team apart. And then
Derrick hears a sickening snap as he lands awkwardly after a thunderous
dunk.
Can Derrick lead the team to victory from the bench?
Kevin Waltman grew up in Indianapolis, the son of basketball coaching legend Royce

Listen to the sounds in the world of
animals! We got Meow and Miau.
Animals chatter in Spanish and English.
Did you know that animals that live in one country don’t always talk the
same language as animals from somewhere else? Take a rooster, for instance.
In English-speaking countries, he says cock-a-doodle-doo when he has a
notion to announce himself or to greet the dawn. But in Spanish-speaking
countries, he says ki-kiri-ki. Emerging readers will delight in identifying the
animals depicted on each new page. And the bilingual text invites parent and
child into an interactive and playful reading experience for acting out animal
sounds in English and Spanish.
Craftsman Rubí Fuentes and Efraín Broa from the Mexican state of
Oaxaca fill the pages of Animal Talk with vibrant, wildly imaginative figures
of familiar animals.
Animal Talk is the fifth book in Cynthia Weill’s charming First Concepts
in Mexican Folk Art series. It is her passion to promote the work of artisans
from around the world through early concept books.

Two worlds, two stories, two books in
one: to be flipped and read with either
ink drop or snowflake first!
Winner of the 2014 Bologna Ragazzi
Award for Fiction, Marguerite’s
Christmas is a visually stunning
exploration of solitude and surprise.
A big town in winter. A snowflake is about to fall from the sky.
A big town in winter. An ink drop spills out of its bottle in an artist’s
studio. The wind carries the snowflake through the town and the ink drop
out of the window into the sky.
Where will each land? Two worlds, two intersecting stories.
A snowflake and an ink drop—can you imagine a more unlikely couple
of friends? Still, could it be that they’re destined to be friends?
Pierdomenico Baccalario is a writer who was born in Italy.
Alessandro Gatti is a writer and translator who was born in Italy.

An old woman will no longer leave her house, not even on Christmas. She
prefers to stay home, rather than take the risk of falling or coming down
with a cold. She settles into the solitude and isolation of her safe, interior
world. But just as she’s about to enjoy a peaceful dinner in front of the TV,
her doorbell rings. . . . This is a touching story about overcoming fear and
the role of chance in life.

A funny, philosophical story about a
sheep who finds a crown and revels
in dreams of the power it bestows—
fleeting though it is.
Readers will delight in Louis’s increasingly elaborate fantasy of what
comes with being a supreme ruler: the pleasures, the responsibilities, the
capriciousness. “What’s good for me is good for my people,” thinks King
Louis in this clever fable about the randomness and absurdity of power,
but also its abuses, and the hidden dangers in a society built on conformity.
There’s loads of wit and humor that will appeal to readers of all ages, but will
also serve as a basis for discussing experiences of relevance to children, such
as bullying and the power games of the playground.
The work of Olivier Tallec has been described as “sensitive,” “stunning,” “breathtaking,”

which he devoted himself to illustration. Since then he has illustrated more than sixty

Macanudo #2 was called “an
indispensable work of comic art”
by Publishers Weekly. Volume #3
further builds and deepens this strip’s
charming, surreal world.
James Thurber’s rapier wit meets its
match in JooHee Yoon’s intelligent,
powerful imagery in this classic tale
about the absurdity of omnipotence.
Macanudo #3 is the newest volume of Liniers’s daily comic strip and the
drawing and vision are more gorgeous than ever. Like volumes #1 and #2,
this new collection is marked by existential wit, a playful sensibility, and
a probing mind. Dive in for more Henrietta and her cat Fellini; more
Mandlebaum, the teddy bear; more sensitive robot, and much else besides!
Born in Buenos Aires in 1973, Liniers is a popular and celebrated Argentine cartoonist
whose Macanudo strip has appeared in Argentina’s largest newspaper, La Nacion, over
the past ten years. He has also published over twenty books containing more than thirtysix hundred cartoons for readers of all ages.
20
Gorgeously illustrated and including two gatefolds that give us a panoramic
jungle at war, The Tiger Who Would Be King is as entertaining as it is wise,
as wry as it is passionate. JooHee Yoon’s humorous images support this
beautifully written text with wit and insight. Her final portrait of the tiger
in a sea of silence will stay with the reader for a long, long time.
James Thurber joined the staff of the New Yorker in 1927. His contributions to that
magazine, both as a writer and an artist, were instrumental in changing the character of
American humor.
JooHee Yoon is an illustrator and printmaker. She strives to create picture books that
can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

The Snow Rabbit is a moving story
about the magical bond between two
sisters, wordlessly told through Camille
Garoche’s one-of-a-kind illustrations.
Two sisters look longingly through their window at the snowy sky. One
goes out and sculpts a little rabbit, but when she brings it back inside to
her wheelchair-bound sister, it begins to melt. So they take it outside and
into the forest where enchanted things begin to happen. A follow up to
her hauntingly beautiful Fox’s Garden, Camille Garoche (a.k.a. Princess
Camcam) mounts paper cut scenes into dioramas that are then meticulously
lit and photographed, lending the illustrations depth and heightened drama.
Steeped in subtle detail and unspoken emotion, The Snow Rabbit is a book to
cherish.
Also known as Princesse Camcam and the creator of the celebrated Fox’s Garden, Camille
Garoche lives in Paris with her partner and daughter. Camille’s 3D, cut-paper illustrations
have been exhibited throughout Europe.

Mysterious, a bit dark, and completely
riveting, this book, imbued with the
world of classic fairytales, fascinates
and invites.
A beautiful, sensitive picture book
about being able to say goodbye to
those we love, while holding them in
memory.
Houses Floating By is both whimsical and mysterious. Take some time and
go on a journey of discovery through a black-and-white pencil world that is
more colorful than you might suspect. The illustrations engage through the
logic of dream and association, encouraging the reader to create her own
stories, while imagining various possibilities.
Aware their grandmother is gravely ill, four siblings make a pact to keep
death from taking her away. But Death does arrive all the same, as it must.
He comes gently, naturally. And he comes with enough time to share a story
with the children that helps them to realize the value of loss to life and the
importance of being able to say goodbye.

The eighth grade holds promise for
Hank Boyd until an oddball named
Ralph decides they should be friends.
“I knew kids like Ralph—a nd they scared me—but none of them had his
heart, his humor, or ultimately his entertaining story.”—M itch Albom
“McNally’s writing is so compelling, not to mention funny, that you’re often
surprised by sudden, more tender moments.”—Sarah Dessen
“A serious joy.”—R ichard Russo
Every school year was a chance to start all over again, and so while the first seven
months of 1978 had sucked, I had high hopes that August would be the beginning
of the year not sucking. And because it would be my last year of grade school, I had
secretly hoped that eighth grade would be different somehow, that a cute girl from
another state would transfer to my school and fall insanely in love with me . . .
Two boys, Hank and Ralph, create moments of outrageous transcendence in
this comic novel about adolescence in the 1970s—a time, like today, when
adults couldn’t be trusted and just getting by was hard work. Amid the clatter
of Cheap Trick and Styx, CB radios and Creature Features, this novel belts
out timeless truths about boyhood, friendship, and redemption. Lord of the
Ralphs is a reincarnation of the author’s beloved novel for adults, The Book of
Ralph, revised and expanded specifically for YA readers.

The stunning sequel to the award-
winning Isabel’s War tells the story
of a young German girl trapped in the
Holocaust.
Germany on the cusp of World War II. Hitler has risen to power, and the
Jews are being taken away from their homes in the middle of the night,
forced to wear yellow stars, their businesses smashed, their lives in ruins.
In the middle of all this is Lilli Frankfurter, a half-Jewish girl on the cusp of
adolescence, her life and family thrust into the midst of a danger she has only
begun to understand.
In the stunning sequel to Isabel’s War, Lila Perl, who completed this
book just months before her death, brings wartime Germany, England,
and America to life through Lilli’s eyes. From Kristallnacht to hiding in her
grandparents’ attic to the Kindertransports that take her to an isolated farm
in the English countryside, separated from her family, Lilli must repeatedly
hide her identity in order to stay alive. In her final novel, Perl brilliantly
evokes Lilli’s desperate journey to America—as well as her brave quest back
to Europe to find out if anything is left of her family.
Lila Perl published over sixty volumes of fiction and nonfiction for young readers during
her long and distinguished career. In addition to the beloved Fat Glenda series, Perl twice
received American Library Association Notable awards for nonfiction and was a recipient
of the Sidney Taylor Award for Four Perfect Pebbles: A Holocaust Story. Her penultimate
novel, Isabel’s War, was named a 2015 Sydney Taylor Honor Award winner in the Teen
Readers Category, and was well reviewed in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times,
Publishers Weekly, School Library Journal, and Kirkus, among other places. She died in
2013 at the age of ninety-t wo.

“A warm and charming family story . . .
one can imagine that this story ends
where All-of-a-Kind Family begins.”
—School Library Journal
From the author of the beloved All-Of-A-K ind Family books comes a
timeless story of a family’s struggles and triumphs in early twentiethcentury Eastern Europe. Mama and her two young daughters, Szerena and
Gisella, never thought they would be without Papa for five long years. Ever
since he left their small farm in Czechoslovakia for America, they have been
waiting for him to send for them. In the meantime, with the help of family
and neighbors, Mama and the girls work on the farm. While Szerena wishes
for “a papa like everyone else,” Gisella can’t remember their father, and
wishes he had not gone away without them. Finally, the big day arrives, and
Mama and the girls leave for America to reunite with Papa. What will it be
like to travel on a train and a ship? And what will happen when at last they
see Papa? A delightful evocation of Jewish life in the “old world,” A Papa
Like Everyone Else is the perfect companion to the seminal All-Of-A-K ind
Family books.

In the world of children’s literature,
Louise Fitzhugh’s Harriet the Spy and
The Long Secret are widely recognized
as epoch-making. They have been
received by young readers, year
after year, with excitement and love.
Nobody’s Family is Going to Change—
the story of an African American
family in New York in the 1970s—
shares the vigorous sense of comedy
and unflinching fidelity to the real
world that has made Fitzhugh’s other
books into classics.

Make a face when the wind changes
and it will stick, but in this myth, you
might just love it.
For generations the Face Changers have made the clay tokens that change
the winds and faces of their kin. This month the youngest is tasked to take
the ten thousand footsteps to the top of the mountain and engulf the town in
the winds of change.
Inspired by the parental tall tale of warning “if the wind changes your
face will stick like that,” as well as Judeo-Christian mythology and the
mythology of Australian aboriginal tribes, Junction combines a variety of
influences to produce a magical piece of modern mythmaking.
Nathan Jurevicius is an Australian/Canadian illustrator who has worked in a variety
of media including designer toys, video games, and animation. He is best known for his
acclaimed multi-platform project, the psychedelic and heartfelt modern folktale Scarygirl.

The perfect book to teach pre-school
children about the most important acts
in Islam.
A book that answers some of the
cunning questions children ask about
the Prophet Muhammad.
Written in simple, rhyming language and accompanied with bold, colorful
illustrations, this book is perfect to introduce young children to the most
important acts in Islam: the Five Pillars. Each spread features one of the
Five Pillars: believing in Allah and His Messenger, praying, fasting, giving
charity, and performing Hajj.
Have you ever wondered what the Prophet Muhammad believed before
he became a prophet, why he is so important, or why he is praised so often?
You might wonder how he treated animals and children or if he performed
miracles. All of these questions, and many more, are explored inside.
Anwar Cara has been involved in children’s publishing for over twenty years, most
notably as a publisher of books for Muslim children with the Islamic Foundation. He
spends his time between Mauritius and the United Kingdom.

Little worm's meetings with exotic
and awe-inspiring animals knocks
his confidence until he realizes how
important he really is.
Poor little worm meets some remarkable animals, all with a claim to fame:
the toughest (gorilla), fastest (falcon), longest tongue (chameleon), and most
intelligent (human), among many others. He returns home feeling weak
and inadequate until he realizes that making compost is one of the most
important things in the world. Lavishly illustrated and with some intriguing
detail, this is a funny, thoughtful tale with an environmental message and
plenty of talking points about diversity and self-esteem.

High school begins and Beatrice’s best
friend wants to party and date “cool”
boys, while Beatrice wants to read
Shakespeare.
In these three stories of youthful
courage, honor, and friendship we learn
people of ancient times were much
like us.
High school begins and nothing is the same, not even Beatrice’s best friend,
who now goes to keg-parties with the “cool kids” and ditches Beatrice at
lunch. But it’s surprisingly fun to eat lunch with the boys from her English
class, to find that “popular” Julia Carmichael is reliable in crisis, and cute-
nerdy Adam’s enthusiasm for Shakespeare matches Beatrice’s own.
Cherished author Rosemary Sutcliff has set these stories of youthful
courage and fidelity among the clans of ancient Wales and Ireland, the
cavalrymen of the Roman Legions, and the young athletes in the early days
of the Olympics. In each story the characters are full of heart and human
failings—a nd feelings that transcend time and history.
Paula Marantz Cohen is a distinguished professor of English at Drexel University and
the author of the novels Suzanne Davis Gets a Life, Jane Austen in Scarsdale or Love, Death
and the SATs, and What Alice Knew.
Rosemary Sutcliff (1920–92) was an award-w inning, internationally acclaimed author

Hailed as Australia’s Huckleberry Finn,
this classic captures a time and place
with a beautiful balance of realism and
nostalgia.
Winner of the Guardian Children’s Fiction Prize, 1987.
Winner of the Ethel Turner Prize, 1986.
Hailed as an Australian Huckleberry Finn, The True Story of Spit MacPhee is
a timeless piece of literature. Originally published in 1986, and set in the
1930s in the fictional Murray River town of St. Helen, it captures a time and
place with a beautiful balance of realism and nostalgia.
When young Spit MacPhee comes to live with his grandfather, the
people of St. Helen fear for his future. Fyfe MacPhee is a crazy old man, and
barefoot Spit has to fend for himself along the riverbank where they live.
While some people feel that Spit can look after himself, others believe he’d
be better cared for in a boys’ home.
When Fyfe MacPhee dies, Spit becomes the subject of a court case that
polarizes the town. But young Spit is a strong and resolute character, and
can more than look after himself. When the truth about his life with his
grandfather is revealed, no one is left unchanged. The True Story of Spit
MacPhee is a much-loved, quintessentially Australian novel for readers of
all ages.

Leanne Hall won the Text Prize for Young Adult and Children’s Writing in
2009 for her spellbinding debut This Is Shyness.
Queen of the Night is set six months later. Nia has tried to forget Wolfboy,
the mysterious boy she spent one night with in Shyness. He said he’d call
but didn’t. And then Wolfboy calls. Things are changing in the suburb of
Shyness, where the sun doesn’t rise and dreams and reality are mingled.
Wolfboy needs help to save their friend Paul from a dangerous subculture.
Queen of the Night is about the impossibility of recreating the past and
the pain of facing up to reality. About finding the truth when you can’t see
clearly. Wildgirl and Wolfboy must learn to trust each other again and find
their way through the darkness.
Highly recommended for ages fourteen and up.

An artifact revealing the location of
Atlantis is stolen from the British
Museum. Jack and friends must find
it first.
International intrigue and a monster
roaming the sewers of London set
the scene for Jack Mason’s fourth
rollicking adventure.
“This third installment of the Jack Mason Adventures is jam-packed with
everything I’ve come to love about the series. There’s a fantastic mix of
mystery, eccentricity, and lint covered pocket cheese . . . my favourite book
of the series so far.”—Fictional Thoughts
Book four of the Jack Mason Adventure series. After a series of fatal
bombings across London, Jack, Scarlet, and Mr. Doyle are drawn into
another baffling case: the reported sighting of a monster roaming the city’s
underground sewers. Before they can investigate, the team must travel
to Spain to hunt down a group of terrorists. But just as they close in, Jack
and Scarlet are kidnapped. With their lives in perilous danger, will Mr.
Doyle find his young assistants in time? Back in London, will the monster’s
true origins be uncovered before it too wreaks deadly destruction across
the city?
When an artifact linked to the lost city of Atlantis is stolen, Jack, Scarlet,
and Mr. Doyle must scour Europe to find it. But just as it’s within reach,
their beloved secretary is poisoned. In their race to find the antidote, the
team uncovers a plan to attack Parliament. Then there’s the discovery that
Mr Doyle’s long-dead son might be alive . . .
