Waterbrook Press (A Division of Random House Inc) The Stories of God and Kiki
Book SynopsisFrom the creators of The Inventions of God (and Eva) comes a delightfully illustrated picture book that tells the story of would-be author and artist Kiki—and the God who created her to be a lot like Him.Little Kiki is an aspiring author and illustrator who weaves daring tales about swashbuckling otters, all-knowing sea cucumbers, and nail-biting rescues from the clutches of gerblins (part gerbil, part goblin). But where do her imagination, creativity, and ideas come from? Meet God, the author of all stories. He writes adventurous tales such as Esther Saves Her Family and Friends, Jesus and the Tomb that Couldn’t Hold Him, and the Story of Kiki. Kiki loves to write but sometimes she forgets to include important pieces (like the time she forgot to give the ship’s cook a kitchen). God also loves to write, and He knows exactly what every story needs. They are both writing their biggest story of all, and the endings are bound to be incredible. Children and parents alike will delight in the playful illustrations, imaginative side stories, and the gentle reminder that the image of God is alive in each of us.

Penguin Putnam Inc The Best Flower Ever
Book SynopsisA spare and laugh-out-loud funny picture book about appreciating what you have and learning to grow with the help of friendsAn Australian shepherd thinks he has the most special flower in the world. He loves the way it smells and how soft it is and how the petals tickle his nose. But one by one, more dogs show up with flowers that seem to be even more special than his! A humongous sunflower with a bejeweled pot? A plant that can survive in the desert? How could his little flower compete against those? But when he accidentally destroys his flower, this pup learns that just because other flowers are special doesn''t mean his can''t be too. Trade Review"In spare text, broken into color-coded speech bubbles, Hudson deftly explores thefeelings of jealousy and frustration that often ensue when we compare ourselves to others . . . The anthropomorphic dogs cut hilarious figures in the watercolor-and–colored pencil artwork . . . A gentle reminder that there are more important things than aspiring to being the best." —Kirkus"Hudson’s delicate watercolor and colored pencil art populates a sunny green meadow with exceedingly expressive pups . . . The mix of sly and silly, which captures the dynamics of a visually detailed dog community and includes a couple of late-arc gags, is just right to elicit laughs." —Publishers Weekly"From competition and jealousy to care and cooperation, this story covers the range of reactions involved in ownership and loss. A delightful read that will keep youngsters searching for more details every time they open the book." —School Library Journal

Penguin Putnam Inc Because Claudette
Book SynopsisFrom NYT bestselling author Tracey Baptiste comes a singular picture book that is both a biography about Claudette Colvin, the teen whose activism launched the Montgomery bus boycott, and a celebration of collective action.When fifteen-year-old Claudette Colvin boarded a segregated bus on March 2, 1955, she had no idea she was about to make history. At school she was learning about abolitionists like Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth, which helped inspire her decision to refuse to give up her seat to a white woman, which led to her arrest, which began a crucial chain of events: Rosa Park''s sit-in nine months later, the organization of the Montgomery bus boycott by activists like Professor Jo Ann Robinson and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and the Supreme Court decision that Alabama''s bus segregation was unconstitutional—a major triumph for the civil rights movement. Because of Claudette''s brave stand against injustice, history was transformed. Now iTrade ReviewJane Addams Children's Book Award finalistTexas Topaz Reading List unanimous recommendation*“A gorgeous tribute to a young Black activist that will inspire many readers. Add this to all picture book biography shelves. Luminous.”—School Library Journal, starred review*“A powerful narrative that showcases generative energy of acts of resistance both big and small.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review*“This approachable biography of the young activist highlights her bravery, commitment, and vulnerability. Young readers will appreciate learning about a regular kid who did something extraordinary. . . . An engaging profile of an inspiring civil rights hero whom readers will enjoy learning about and cheering for.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review“The book’s unusual title echoes the many sentences beginning with the word because and forming a chain of connected circumstances and events. . . . Created with acrylic underpainting and oils, the vivid illustrations capture the look of the times and the satisfaction of those who challenged injustice and prevailed. An effective picture book portraying Colvin and her significance in the civil rights movement.”—Booklist

Gloriously illustrated by the acclaimed creator of The Book of Mistakes and My Heart, this is a terrific new way to learn the alphabet.Trade Review"The illustrations are the real standout here, fluid and soft, a pale pastel palette setting the tone. All the people are dressed in white, allowing their unique features to stand out. The book’s greatest strength is its diversity—characters vary by ability, age, skin tone, and size, with a wide range of body types on display . . . an ode to the beauty of the human body." —Kirkus"In a pictorial abecedarian whose visuals utilize the human form, Luyken draws white-clad figures with various abilities, body types, and skin tones contorting themselves into letters of the Latin alphabet . . . this illustrative work may well inspire similar movements." —Publishers Weekly"In a message of acceptance and body positivity, this alphabet book encourages people of all ages and abilities to join in forming letters with their bodies. The soft illustrations include people with a variety of body shapes, ages, and skin and hair colors, plus people using wheelchairs and other assistive devices. This book also would be a natural to incorporate with movement programs for children." —Booklist
