A treasure." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "Henkes continues to plumb the emotional world of childhood as few author/illustrators can... Another gem." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Impeccable... Respect for the beginning reader's emerging skills beautifully matches Henkes's respect for Penny ." -- Horn Book (starred review) "Splendid ... Henkes so completely understands the minds of small children... His vivacious panels always seem to burst with springtime. It's hard to imagine anything ever going too wrong in one of his sensitive, generous portrayals. Everything here ends just right." -- New York Times Book Review "Henkes ups the emotional stakes in his third book starring Penny." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Henkes conveys shades of emotions that are common to human experience, yet hard to express in words. It's particularly impressive that he can do so in a book for beginning readers... This small-scale, yet immensely satisfying drama is a fine addition to the Penny series." -- Booklist (starred review) Praise for Penny and Her Song: "Henkes strikes all the right notes... Language, art, characterization, and plot are all executed, like Penny's song, beautifully." -- Horn Book (starred review) "The text ... is perfect for new readers, and Henkes's familiar artwork has its share of warm moments. This early reader captures the way families make memories at unexpected moments. Welcome Penny to the cast." -- Booklist (starred review) "Much as he did in Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, Henkes presents an irrepressible heroine who struggles to compromise." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Carefully sequenced panels, expressive lines and gentle pastels lead the reader to the story's joyous resolution." -- Washington Post

HarperCollins Publishers Inc Ordinary Girls
Book SynopsisTrade Review“The sisters’ relationship—what pulls them apart, what draws them together—is the story’s beating heart. A well-told, universally human tale about teens discovering who they are, where they want to go, and how to get there. Wise, funny, [and a] thoroughly contemporary coming-of-age tale.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “The author of Who’s That Girl, Thornburgh offers a story that’s as witty, intelligent, and perceptive as its narrator. A rewarding novel that revolves around change, reflection, and, yes, sisterhood.” — ALA Booklist (starred review) “A realistic depiction of siblinghood proves deeply dynamic as each falters and grows. Most of all, Thornburgh’s exploration of the power of social comedies and books by and about young women—works often deemed insignificant—shines. A funny, beguiling story of sisterhood, burgeoning self-awareness, and first love.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Thornburgh’s novel offers a charming riff on Sense and Sensibility. Readers will happily lose themselves in the warmly realistic family dynamics, the sisters’ laugh-out-loud banter, and the sweet, low-key romance. A smart, character-driven contemporary novel with a timeless feel. Highly recommended for all collections.” — School Library Journal “A consistent joy for lovers of well-wroutght, understated prose.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

Penguin Young Readers Being You A First Conversation About Gender
Book SynopsisBased on the research that race, gender, consent, and body positivity should be discussed with toddlers on up, this read-aloud board book series offers adults the opportunity to begin important conversations with young children in an informed, safe, and supported way.Developed by experts in the fields of early childhood and activism against injustice, this topic-driven board book offers clear, concrete language and beautiful imagery that young children can grasp and adults can leverage for further discussion. While young children are avid observers and questioners of their world, adults often shut down or postpone conversations on complicated topics because it''s hard to know where to begin. Research shows that talking about issues like race and gender from the age of two not only helps children understand what they see, but also increases self-awareness, self-esteem, and allows them to recognize and confront things that are unfair, like discrimination and prejudTrade Review“This primer on gender lays the groundwork for affirming conversations and creates opportunities for self-identification.” – Kirkus (STARRED REVIEW)KIRKUS BEST BOOK (2021)"A sunny, straightforward book guiding children through what gender is, how it can fluctuate, and how it’s used throughout social structures.
