The dark humor (it was written by a 7-year-old) of "Lenny the Lobster Can't Stay for Dinner" will delight adults (probably even more than their kids!). 

Mira discovers the beauty of natural hair after getting caught in the rain with her Mama ("Mira's Curly Hair").

"Play this Book" and "Hello Hello" are finalists in the 2019 Firefly Awards (0 - 5 years olds, stop by the Children's Desk to cast your vote!).

Enjoy these and many other bright and colorful reads from our new books shelf - and don't forget to check out our new DVDs, too!
