Light Paperback (1 lb or less)

Two-time Newbery Medalist Lois Lowry introduces a new girl in class who loves being the center of attention and tells the most entertaining “absolutely true” stories.

There’s never been anyone like Gooney Bird Greene at Watertower Elementary School. What other new kid comes to school wearing pajamas and cowboy boots one day and a polka-dot t-shirt and tutu on another? Gooney Bird has to sit right smack in the middle of the class because she likes to be in the middle of everything. She is the star of story time and keeps her teacher and classmates on the edge of their seats with her “absolutely true” stories. But what about her classmates? Do they have stories good enough to share?

A Christmas Story

Follow the itsy bitsy snowman on an epic journey to making his biggest Christmas dream come true


All the little snowman dreamed to do is go caroling like a happy child with a silvery voice would do around Christmas time. But the little snowman was made of snow and could make no sound. What will happen when he meets a red cardinal that fills him with hope that he too could receive a voice? The Snowman's Song will inspire kids to believe in Christmas miracles.


The snowman book that moves you to believe in yourself and never quit on your big dreams


The snowman wants to sing just one small note so that he could have a perfect Christmas. But nothing would come from his cold, hard snow throat. The red cardinal tells him that if he were to sing, he has to believe deep in his heart that he can. The little snowman struggles to believe in himself, but an act of kindness from a little girl helps him start to believe that he is special.


Witness a Christmas miracle in one of the most awe-inspiring snowy winter picture books


All of a sudden, the holes near his face blew out lyrical sounds like a heavenly flute. The whole world stood in place. His dream was fulfilled, he was no longer mute. His song was spring rains and violin strings, the fragrance of flowers and hummingbird wings. The Snowman's Song is a heartwarming Christmas children's book that will inspire kids through all seasons of their life.

Mr. Fiorello's Head is both a playful romp and a philosophical tale. Mr. Fiorello loved his hair and never wanted it to go away. But. sometimes, the things we care the most about, the things we never want to see gone, leave anyway. Such is the fate of Mr. Fiorello and his hair. But, fortunately, he still has a head on his shoulders and thoughts in his head, which help him to navigate his loss and disappointment in favor of a larger possibility, which leads him from his apartment into the world, to grow and tend to a larger garden than the hairs on his own head. We may not have control over many things in our lives, but when we do the work inside our own heads that we need to do, our most petty concerns give way to a larger, more generous conception.

Lauren Tarshis

California continues to be ravaged by devastating wildfires. Lauren Tarshis's heart pounding story tells of two children who battle the terrifying flames and -- despite the destruction -- find hope in the ashes. The people of Northern California were used to living with the threat of wildfires. But nothing could have prepared them for the devastating 2018 fire season, the deadliest in 100 years and the most destructive in history. In the 20th I Survived book, readers join eleven-year-old Josh as he leaves his New Jersey home for the rural northern California town where his cousins live. Still reeling from the life-changing challenges that propelled him and his mother across the country, Josh struggles to adapt to a more rustic, down-to-earth lifestyle that couldn't be more different from the one he is used to. Josh and his cousin bond over tacos and reptiles and jokes, but on a trip into the nearby forest, they suddenly find themselves in the path of a fast-moving firestorm, a super-heated monster that will soon lay waste to millions of acres of wilderness and -- possibly -- their town. Josh needs to confront the family issues burning him up inside, but first he'll have to survive the flames blazing all around him.

Randy Riley’s Really Big Hit

Kirsten W. Larson

Meet self-taught engineer Emma Lilian Todd as she tackles one of the greatest challenges of the early 1900s: designing an airplane.

Emma Lilian Todd's mind was always soaring--she loved to solve problems. Lilian tinkered and fiddled with all sorts of objects, turning dreams into useful inventions. As a child, she took apart and reassembled clocks to figure out how they worked. As an adult, typing up patents at the U.S. Patent Office, Lilian built the inventions in her mind, including many designs for flying machines. However, they all seemed too impractical. Lilian knew she could design one that worked. She took inspiration from both nature and her many failures, driving herself to perfect the design that would eventually successfully fly.
