Monster and Boy: Monster's First Day of School
Monster and Boy are back for another adventure! And this time the best friends are headed somewhere no monster has ventured before: school!
Ever since Monster (who sleeps under the bed) and Boy (who sleeps in the bed) met and became best friends, they've been spending their days playing together. But some days, Boy leaves and Monster is alone. Wanting to learn more about where his friend goes, Monster makes a plan to go with Boy to . . . school! There, Monster meets Boy's teacher and classmates, learns about cubbies and the sharing circle, and even helps solve a mystery when a pet hedgehog goes missing. Told with a warm, cozy voice, Hannah Barnaby's story is brought to life with adorable two-color illustrations by Anoosha Syed. Filled with adventure and humor, Monster and Boy: Monster's First Day of School is a perfect chapter book for sharing with kids just aging out of picture books and for newly independent readers.Book Details

Garcia & Colette Go Exploring:
"The full-speed-ahead enthusiasm of Garcia and Colette is infectious. Telling one story well is enough of a challenge, but this book perfectly balances two stories and the characters within them, adding up to more than the sum." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review Some of the Parts: "Barnaby's elegant, well-paced novel stands out from others examining the death of a loved one both for its understated writing and for its penetrating exploration of the outer limits of grief and guilt." --Publishers Weekly, starred reviewThe Wonder Show: William C. Morris YA Debut Award Finalist
A Kirkus Best Teen Book of 2012 "Infused with nostalgia and affection, this celebration of the deliberately constructed self will hold readers in its spell from beginning to end." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review
