Questioning why a bird would be born with wings yet cannot fly, our hero goes to the one place he knows he can find answers. He goes to the creator of the world. Pete knows his Father God has the answers he needs to any question he may have. His Father lovingly shows Pete why not only is he not mistakenly made, but he is also made to be special. It is a loving look at how the Creator of the universe never makes mistakes; he makes masterpieces.

The first children's book from the best-selling author of We Should All Be Feminists and Americanah—a tender story about a little girl’s love for her mother’s scarf, and the adventures she shares with it and her whole family. Chino loves the scarf that her mama ties around her hair at night. But when Mama leaves for the day, what happens to her scarf? Chino takes it on endless adventures! Peeking through the colorful haze of the silky scarf, Chino and her toy bunny can look at her whole family as they go through their routines. With stunning illustrations from Joelle Avelino, Mama’s Sleeping Scarf is a celebration of family, and a touching story about the everyday objects that remind us of the ones we love.

A lyrical picture book memoir of one boy and his beloved grandmother, from award-winning author Lester L. Laminack.
Every Saturday, a young boy rides his bicycle up and down country roads, past farms and a filling station, until he reaches his Mammaw's house. She is waiting for him. There, the young boy helps her. She picks tomatoes and he pushes the lawnmower through the dew-wet grass. But the best part of the day is helping his Mammaw make teacakes from scratch and eating the hot, sweet cakes fresh from the oven.
Lester L. Laminack's richly detailed prose perfectly portrays the special relationship of a young boy and his grandmother. Award-winning illustrator Chris Soentpiet's remarkably detailed watercolor images beautifully capture the setting.

An original take on some favorite nursery rhymes - this is one search for a new house that's bound to be more pleasure than trouble. There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. She had so many children, she didn't know what to do. She gave them some broth without any bread, Then took them to live in a new home instead. Too messy, too woolly, too noisy, too small. Whether it's Humpty Dumpty's wall or Mother Hubbard's cupboard, the old woman (who once lived in a shoe) and her children (who once lived there, too) just can't seem to find a new home big enough for their growing needs. So where will they turn for a cozy night's rest? The perfect place is only a step away - no moving van required!

Rise of the isle of the lost 

A rollicking book that reminds young readers to go outside and play!
 
"We're bringing the outside in, oh, bringing the outside in. . . ."
 
Nothing takes the place of splashing in a puddle or jumping into a pile of autumn leaves. Along with the mud and sand that gets tracked indoors come memories that live forever! Mary McKenna Siddals has written a joyous anthem that encourages children to play in the dirt. It will surely resonate with today's overscheduled as well as sedentary kids, and their parents.

Cover has some staining, but it’s all superficial. Inside is very nice and book is solid.
