Happy book birthday to Crimson Twill, Witch in the Spotlight by .george 🥳

Crimson finally has a real, full-length wand and she’s off to exciting New Wart City to take wand lessons with her best friends. But when she gets there, she’s surprised to discover that their class includes the famous young Broadwart star Miserabella Portentia! Crimson’s friends are starstruck, and for good reason: Miserabella is wickedly good at wand lessons and always seems to be in the spotlight. Meanwhile, when Crimson tries to do things the way Miserabella does, everything turns out miserable-sunbeams instead of rain, donuts instead of burned bagels, and roses instead of thorns. Disaster! But when one of Miserabella’s spells gets out of control, it might be time for Crimson to do things her way.

Fifteen-year-old Kam is head over heels for Ash, the boy who swept him off his feet. But his family and best friend, Bodie, are worried. Something seems off about Ash. He also has a habit of disappearing, at times for days. When Ash asks Kam to join him on a trip to Joshua Tree, the two of them walk off into the sunset . . . but only Kam returns.

Two years later, Kam is still left with a hole in his heart and too many unanswered questions. So it feels like fate when a school trip takes him back to Joshua Tree. On the trip, Kam wants to find closure about what happened to Ash but instead finds himself in danger of facing a similar fate. In the desert, Kam must reckon with the truth of his past relationship—and the possibility of opening himself up to love once again.

Congrats to and on their starred reviews from ⭐️

BEFORE YOU WERE HERE 🧬
Follow a young child as he explores the world around him and begins to understand that he is connected to all things — sunshine which nourishes us, water which makes up most of our bodies, and soil which contains minerals that keep us strong and healthy.

This is the third starred review for SANTA’S FIRST CHRISTMAS!
We all know that Santa makes everyone’s dreams come true every Christmas, but it turns out that he needs a little help getting into the holiday spirit himself. Instead of letting Santa get right back to work after he returns home to the North Pole on Christmas morning, his loyal elves want to make sure he experiences the same Christmas cheer he provides for others.

Happy book birthday to THE NEXT SCIENTIST 🥳

Swipe for a sneak peek of one of many beautiful spreads, illustrated by !

Before the world’s great scientists were scientists, they were, in fact, doing all the things kids do:

Taking things apart,
putting things together,
gazing up at the night sky,
drawing, imagining, building, and exploring.

Things that scientists do, too.

Thank you for the lovely words for WHEN LOVE IS MORE THAN WORDS 💙

“Chung’s elegant text is rife with concrete details, while Kuo deftly uses bold colors, black lines, and textures to create warmly energetic scenes of family gatherings and tables heaped with food. With joy and tenderness, Chung and Kuo convey an important truth; young people whose families express love in different ways will feel seen, heard, and embraced.”
