Clavis Publishing Mia and Molly: The Same and Different
Book Synopsis"A colorful tale of twins who are not always identical. " - Kirkus Reviews From the author-illustrator of the bestselling series Zaza, Mylo Freeman! Mia and Molly are twins. They look the same and they like the same things. But they are also different in many ways! A lovely flip book about similarities and differences—and twins! For toddlers ages 24 months and up, with a focus on the child’s daily life. At Clavis, our focus is on what’s best for children. We believe that books play an important role in each new phase in life. Our toddler books are tailored for every stage from 0 to 3 and focus on the five most important themes in their life: daily life, skills, emotions, the world, and language development. The age range and theme of every book in our toddler series can be found on the back cover in the form of a colored train.Trade Review"A flip book introduces two Asian siblings, twin toddlers who observe ways they are similar and ways they are not. “Look—Mia and Molly are twins. They look the same.” This half of the book goes on to highlight ways that the twins are similar, focusing on shared preferences in objects and dress. “Today Mia and Molly are wearing the same clothes and the same shoes.” Fortunately for the sisters, the illustrations reveal that there are two of everything, avoiding any source of contention. Bright contrasting colors and textures add dynamism to the illustrations along with artful placement of patterns to surround text or give a pop to objects. Conflict does arise when Mia and Molly fight over one beloved toy frog. Luckily Mommy has a solution. At this point, readers flip the book over and begin reading from the back cover to delve into the differences between the two. Some instances are fairly superficial while others reveal personality distinctions: “Mia loves to laugh at silly puppets. Molly thinks they are a little bit scary.” (…) A colorful tale of twins who are not always identical. (Picture book. 2-4)" - Kirkus Reviews "This story is about twins who share a lot of similarities and differences. I love the visuals of this story and enjoy how these two sisters are described as having their own interests despite looking so much alike. This shows children from a young age that there are many things that make us unique but also unite us. Cute story! Perfect for those young, forming minds." - Pleasanton ISD "A sweet story, beautifully-illustrated. Two little girls, Mia and Molly, are twins. The first part of the book is about what they have in common. The second part of the book features their different interest and ilkes. For twins, the siblings of twins, and all little girls who like adorable picture books. Five stars." - Biblio Filer "This book was really cute and great for kids! I love that it has 2 books in one. The first being how they are the same and the other how they are different. I think that it can portray an important message on how people are both the same and different too. I also love the illustrations. They're colorful and cute." - Alexisse Pablico

Clavis Publishing Owen's Day with Daddy
Book Synopsis"An uncomplicated story about the small ways that dads can help young ones accept their new siblings." - Kirkus ReviewsOwen feels left out. Since his little brother arrived, it seems like Daddy doesn’t have time for him anymore. Luckily, Daddy has an idea. He and Owen will do something special—Owen’s choice. So what should they do?A warm story about the bond between parents and their children, which remains strong even when there’s a new baby in the house. For big brothers and sisters ages 3 years and up.Trade Review"With a little extra love from his dad, Owen adjusts to becoming a new big brother. Owen’s dad and baby brother sweetly play together until Owen, overcome with jealousy, cries out, “I want to do something with you, Daddy!” Owen’s tantrum is followed by a tummy ache. Dad responds to the child’s hurt with validation and calm. They decide to do three fun things: feed ducks at the park, go down the big slide at the playground, and order cheeseburgers at the drive-thru. Within these simple activities, Owen is reminded of his deep connection to his father while practicing skills he can apply to older brotherhood (like nurturing ducklings and braving his fears of an unfamiliar challenge). By the end of their father-son day, Owen’s envy has morphed into thoughtfulness toward his new sibling; as they drive home, Owen asks, “Can babies drink milkshakes?” and when he returns home, he gently kisses his little brother. Though Owen and his dad never explicitly unpack the child’s jealousy, the narrative positively models adults being patient with Owen and affirming his difficult emotions, complemented by the illustrations, rendered with childlike simplicity. Owen, his father, and his brother are pale-skinned with black hair; Owen’s mother is light-skinned with brown hair. An uncomplicated story about the small ways that dads can help young ones accept their new siblings." - Kirkus Reviews

Clavis Publishing My Key
Book SynopsisGold Medal Winner of the 2020 Key Colors Illustrators Competition! "Nothing stops the protagonist from doing what they want to do, and they master every situation in this exhilarating outing." - Publishers Weekly When two ordinary objects land on a city sidewalk, a little girl’s dull day becomes an odyssey of new places and unusual faces. Led far away on a dragon boat, she makes use of her found objects to get past the locked library doors, where erudite elephants open her eyes to the beauty of books and faraway lands. Faced with fantastic animals and discoveries, has she found the secret to make dull days a thing of the past? A magical book that celebrates libraries and the power of imagination. For brave explorers ages 5 years and up.Trade ReviewGold Medal Winner of the 2020 Key Colors Illustrators Competition! Winner of the 2022 Northern Lights Book Awards: Honoring Children’s Literature of Exceptional Merit "The apparently Black narrator of this picture book by author-illustrator Amal sits outside a brick row house, wishing for a trip to the movies, Timbuktu, “a little Kasbah in a big city”—or at very least the library. Instead, a neighborhood raven offers a magical glowing ball: “It beams! It’s fantastic!” Now the child can travel alone. In this new fantasy world, sea dragons loom, but the protagonist is unintimidated: “No! You can’t have my ball. It won’t do anything for you!” When a sign at the library says it’s closed due to a “very important young elephant book conference,” the child makes a key, finds a book about the kasbah—and instantly, an elephant reaches out of the book: “I knew I’d get to Morocco!” Magical developments unfurl one after another as sepia tones dominate elegant, classically drafted panel artwork that subtly transitions to color. Nothing stops the protagonist from doing what they want to do, and they master every situation in this exhilarating outing. Ages 5–11." - Publishers Weekly "I LOVED this picture book! Thank you for letting me read it. The graphics were stunning, so much that honestly this would even be great as a wordless book. I think this book would be better for older kids/students who enjoy picture books, as younger kids may get overwhelmed by the realism of the art style, or maybe not. I will definitely be ordering it for our middle grade picture book collection." - Barrington Middle School "My Key is a book that highlights the beauty of traveling anywhere via books, something I think most of us can appreciate. I think the prose is a little difficult to understand, especially for younger children, and 5 (the age stated on the back of the book) may be a bit too young to understand this incredibly metaphoric story. The illustrations, though, are supremely gorgeous, and I think many children will appreciate seeing a girl who looks like them in the pages of a book. My favorite pages were the ones with the elephant band." - Gilbert Public Schools
