Page Street Publishing Co. Unboxing of a Black Girl The
Book SynopsisWritten as a collection of vignettes and poetry, The Unboxing of a Black Girl is a creative nonfiction reflection on Black girlhood. The debut YA title, by award-winning author Angela Shanté, is a love letter to Black girls set in New York City and serves as a personal and political critique of how the world raises Black girls. As Shanté navigates the city through memory, she balances poetry with vignettes that explore the innocence and joy of childhood eroded by adultification. Through this book, she illuminates the places where Black girls are nurtured or exploited in stories and poems about personal and political boxes, love, loss, and sexual assault. Many entries are also studded with cultural footnotes designed to further understanding.

Tilbury House,U.S. Miss Pinkeltinks Purse
Book SynopsisTrade Review"The concept of homelessness is brought down to the youngest child's level. This is a nonthreatening and simple introduction to the topic for young children who have no prior exposure to homelessness. Simplistic but heartfelt, earnest, and a discussion starter." -- Kirkus"...A beautiful example of how we can and should all help each other regardless of our differences. This book fills the need for stories that demonstrate civic engagement, what it might be like to be homeless and all alone in the world, and that one person absolutely can make a difference. -- Starred Review" -- Sandy Kelly, JVFletcher Library, Westford, MA - Youth Services Book Review"With her patchwork dress, messy gray bun, and reading glasses, Miss Pinkeltink resembles everyone’s favorite granny in this rhyming, warmhearted introduction to charity, social outreach, and homelessness.

Tilbury House,U.S. Common Critters The Wildlife in Your Neighborhood
Book SynopsisCommon Critters celebrates neighborhood wildlife in verse. A familiar cast of charactersworms, slugs, caterpillars, ladybugs, robins, mourning doves, houseflies, spiders, squirrels, skunks, and otherscrawls, runs, buzzes, and flits through these lively poems, which show how exotic these seemingly ordinary creatures really are.Trade Review"Creatures receive their charming due in this bouncy collection of brief rhymes. The poems read and generally scan very well; each critter is the star of its own verse. Educators and parents will appreciate that the poems also provide interesting, easily digestible nuggets of scientific information. Delightful watercolor-and-ink cartoons add uncommon whimsy throughout and feature lush surroundings, shown additionally in lovely opening and closing spreads. An uncommon introduction to poetry. " -- Kirkus Reviews"Superlative back matter elevates this illustrated collection of jokey poems celebrating neighborhood wildlife: “There are creatures all around you,/ not exotic, but not tame./ Though most are pretty common,/ they’re intriguing just the same.” Each critter gets its own poem on a spread illustrated with Tavis’s artful landscapes and goofily goggle-eyed wildlife. Brisson’s wordplay ranges from obvious ha-has (of crows: “And could this fact be much absurder?/ A group of you is called a murder!”) to sophisticated lines (of caterpillars: “It follows metamorphic urges/ to break out, and what emerges/ is a moth or butterfly/ that dries its wings and starts to fly”). A “Facts About Common Critters” section offers more information about the featured creatures (“A squirrel will crack open a nut and rub it on its face before burying it”) alongside a brief discussion of artistic license, while “A Peek into the Poet’s Toolkit” uses the poems to explain rhyme, meter, stanza, and poetic license." -- PW"The poems are light and fun, while the entertaining illustrations will draw in readers." -- Susan Lissim, Dwight School, NYC - School Library Journal

Book SynopsisTrade Review"This book needs to be shared in classrooms, in storytimes, and especially within families." — School Library Journal "Greenfield and Gilchrist team up again in this collection of 25 short poems about life with siblings. The poems’ titles indicate the range of family themes: 'New Brothers,' 'Mad at Dad,' 'Grandma and Her Sisters,' 'Let’s Make Up,' 'Aunt Me,' and 'The Two of Us,' which concludes, 'Whatever we do, / we know we’re going to do it / together.' The styles are varied; some poems follow strict rhymes, while others are written in looser forms. Everyone can relate to the poems’ affection, frustration, laughter, jealousy, and family pride, as well as the love that always shines through." — Booklist "Timeless…clear and universal. Everyone can relate to the poems’ affection, frustration, laughter, jealousy, and family pride, as well as the love that always shines through." — ALA These are the sweetest poems for kids and families of all kinds. — Charlotte Observer "Together their picture book celebrates how brothers get along with brothers, sisters with sisters, and various other combinations." — Horn Book Magazine
