Book SynopsisMeet Max - the mighty kitten and New York Times bestseller.This is Max. Max is very sleepy. It''s way past Max''s bedtime. Max has drunk his milk. Max has brushed his teeth. Max has cleaned behind his ears. Now Max just needs to say goodnight. . .Max is tired and all ready for bed, but when he can''t find the moon to say goodnight to, he sets out to find it. But that''s not as easy as Max had hoped. . . Witty and heart-warming, this stylish and beautifully illustrated book is the perfect bedtime read.Trade ReviewVere's playful, minimalist illustrations are just right for this quiet story. Some might wonder how the cat will cope with a new moon, but everyone will be rooting for Max, and hoping he returns in another adventure. -- Peter Brown * The New York Times *A nocturnal quest yields great rewards for the little black cat with the big yellow eyes. Last seen mixing up his monsters and mice in Max the Brave (2015), cute kitten Max preps for beddy-bye. Yet his usual litany of "good night"s hits a snag when the moon is nowhere to be found. Determined to bid his lunar pal good night, Max moves from a tree to the rooftops to the highest hills. Sympathetic winds uncover the moon, gleaming and bright, who assures Max that it can hear him, even when he's safe at home. Max's plight and nighttime quest will ring true for any child who has ever called out from a dark bedroom for comfort. Though Vere does not take the opportunity to explain the waxing and waning of the moon, the lapse doesn't detract from the fact that this outing surpasses Max's last. The interior pastel backgrounds, so familiar from the earlier book, yield to twilight's ochres and periwinkles, then to deep reds and blues. These deeper tones, paired alongside Max's brilliant yellow eyes, recall such classics as Sam and the Firefly. Vere's digital illustrations give the mouthless Max eyes that appear uncommonly expressive, though they do little more than look or close. Cozy, dozy, comforting fare. -- Kirkus * Kirkus *

Book SynopsisThe latest tale in award-winning author and illustrator Torben Kuhlmann’s Mouse Adventures series takes flight with the courage and spirit of aviation pioneers. For the field mice, the boundary of the garden is the edge of the world. But one little field mouse is determined to discover the wide world beyond the burrow—even if she isn’t supposed to fly. With her knack for engineering and help from an experienced mouse aviator, she defies the other field mice and sets off on a daring journey. Could it be that she inspired Amelia Earhart’s pioneering aviation career? Amelia Earhart dreamed of becoming a pilot after she attended an airshow, and went on to defy gender barriers when she became the first female to fly non-stop across the Atlantic. Torben Kuhlmann’s masterfully rendered illustrations and gripping story, inspired by Earhart, encourage young readers to pursue their passions-despite all obstacles. Includes nonfiction backmatter: a biography of Amelia Earhart, a description of her infamous flight and the myths around it, and a timeline of other successful flights around the world! “Adventure is worthwhile in itself.” -Amelia Earhart
