Connor Kissed Me
In this empowering picture book, Miriam navigates her confusion about an unprovoked kiss–finding her voice and using it to assert her personal boundaries.
The Wild Ones
"While paying homage to The Goonies, Scooby Doo, and classic monster comics—Megan and Jorge Lacera have created a wholly original tale filled with lovable diverse characters, told in a fresh graphic picture book format. The Wild Ones is pure spooky fun served up with the dynamic Lacera duo's signature heart, humor, and sabor." —Pura Belpré Honor Winning Author Anika Aldamuy Denise and Caldecott Honor Winner Christopher Denise
Zombies Don’t Eat Veggies!
⭐ "Tasty and homegrown, this hits a strange and specific trifecta: a lightly bilingual book that feels inclusive not only for Latinx kids, but also for different eaters and for those who aren't afraid of gory, monster-themed humor." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
