Abrams Books for Young Readers has some great stuff coming off the presses, new this month!
Library Mouse: A World to Explore is author and illustrator Daniel Kirk’s newest book for children ages 6 to 9.
Sarah is an adventurous explorer mouse who doesn’t give much thought to reading and research.
Sam is fearful of adventurous exploits (in practice) but loves to research and write about all kinds of things.
Together, Sam and Sarah make a great team!

On Ida’s first day of school, her imaginary pet Dotty tags along.
At first they have plenty of other imaginary friends (brought by classmates), but gradually fewer imaginary friends come to class, Ida isn’t sure about Dotty’s place.
Dotty is written for children ages 4 to 8 by Erica S. Perl and illustrated by Julia Denos.
…
John’s first day at his new school results in a tall tale about the crazy things that happened at his old school.
The Exceptionally, Extraordinarily Ordinary First Day of School is a great story for children aged 6 to 9 about conquering the fears of being a new kid, or the first-day jitters.
Albert Lorenz’s illustrations are extreme and detailed, with speech bubbles and side panels containing funny reference notes.
Each page has lots to look at and intrigues my graphic-novel-loving child.
…

Patient and inspirational Miss Tutu gives Selena the confidence to be Miss Tutu’s Star!
Miss Tutu’s Star is written for ages 4 to 8 by prolific children’s author Lesléa Newman and illustrated by Carey Armstrong-Ellis.
