NEW! Mighty Moms
Mighty Dads
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
illustrated by James Dean, creator of Pete the Cat
Scholastic Press - in board book and picture book format
School Library Journal Review:
The dads at this construction site teach by example and encourage their youngsters to strive to do their best. For example, there's Excavator Big, who "helps little Vator dig./They go/ scoop,/scoop,/scoop." Other father-and-son teams include Bulldozer and Dozy, Boom Truck and Boomer, Cement Mixer and Mixie, Dump Truck and Dumpy, Backhoe and Hoe-Hoe, Grader and Grady, Forklift and Forky . . . the message of "Mighty Dads say,/'I'm proud of you!/ Tomorrow let's build/something new!'" is just the ticket for vehicle-obsessed youngsters who can't get enough of construction play.
Publishers Weekly review:
“Like father, like son” holds true even when Dad and Junior are heavy-duty construction equipment. “Dump Truck Sturdy/ teaches Dumpy to get dirty/ They go fill, drive, dump,” writes Holub (Little Red Writing), as Pete the Cat creator Dean shows a hulking blue and red truck create an impressive mountain while his offspring makes an adorable molehill. Like the best 21st-century human dads, the vehicles don’t just show their kids the ropes—they also offer plenty of TLC (“Cement Mixer Busy/ gives a hug if Mixie’s dizzy”) and affirmation (“Forklift Wise/ cheers whenever Forky tries”). . . a book worthy of any young armchair foreman. – Publisher’s Weekly

Boo Who? A Spooky Lift-the-Flap Book
Scholastic, ages 1-6
“An engaging book for youngsters anticipating the excitement of Halloween. Each double-page spread has a simple rhyming verse on the left-hand side accompanied by a lift-the-flap with a picture clue on the right; each page illustrates some seasonal or scary item, ranging from a skeleton to a witch in a black hat. Words are carefully placed on the page in large, oversized print, making this selection also enticing to beginning readers. . .The captivating acrylic watercolors in bold, bright colors are full of scenes associated with autumn a harvest moon and twinkling stars, a spooky graveyard, and swirling leaves. The last page is a special delight as a mylar mirror is cleverly attached over a monster's face, so "the scariest monster...it's you." …a wonderful one-on-one choice and might be accompanied by Ed Emberley's Go Away, Big Green Monster! -- School Library Journal
