Excited to join the @storygramtours book tour for DREAMWEAVER by @oosangoyomi !

✒️SYNOPSIS✒️
Deja Freeman comes from a long line of witches, each one ushered into the magical Web by a woman before her—only she was never woven in. After her mother’s death, Deja’s aunt sought to protect her from the complications of magic. But when Deja enrolls at the prestigious Tanglewood Preparatory School, her mom’s alma mater, she finds herself walking the same perilous path that got her mother murdered.

Straight-A student Tóbi Ẹkúndayọ̀ is Tanglewood’s most popular student and future valedictorian. The only thing she has left to accomplish is winning junior class president. But her life keeps throwing curveballs, including strange, disturbing dreams that Tanglewood’s newest student seems to share.

Each dream is a piece of a complicated puzzle, but one thing lies at the center: the mysterious disappearance of one of Tanglewood’s best students. Joined by a motley crew of friends, the girls must work together to untangle the school’s dark history before the administration, or something far more sinister, catches up with them.

🚀 PICTURE BOOK 🚀
Thank you @candlewickpress for sending me THE GREATEST PROJECT IN SPACE: THE STORY OF YHE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION by @markus_motum ! 

🚀This was such a fascinating book! I really enjoyed learning about the space station! It's amazing what we can do when the world works together!

🚀 SYNOPSIS 🚀
Discover the incredible story of how the world came together to create an orbiting laboratory in space in this absorbing book energized by striking, stylish illustrations.

On a clear night, if you’re lucky, you can look up at the sky and spot what looks like a star moving very fast. It is hard to fathom, but this is actually the International Space Station, traveling at twenty times the speed of sound, circling the earth once every ninety minutes. One of humankind’s greatest inventions for exploring and living in space, the ISS is packed with some of the most technologically sophisticated equipment and facilities ever invented. In this follow-up to Curiosity: The Story of a Mars Rover, readers learn how the ISS was launched piece by piece and constructed in orbit; how astronauts live on the station (playing music in zero gravity, running marathons, reading to children on Earth); and how the groundbreaking experiments conducted onboard are changing life on our planet. This compelling picture book celebrates the wonders of space while reminding us that when we work together, there is no limit to how far we can go.

Thank you @candlewickpress for sending me a copy of BATHTIME FOR SNOW MONKEYS by @maggietokudahall , illustrated by @yas.imamura !

🇯🇵This made me want to go back to Japan so bad! There is so much beauty and history there, I need to go back! 

🇯🇵 SYNOPSIS 🇯🇵
At the Jigokudani monkey park in Nagano, nihonzaru—Japanese macaques—have a unique way of de-stressing from life in a cold climate: gathering in their very own onsen, or hot spring “spa,” to lounge and snack. Peek into this magical world in the mountains, hushed by snow, where the macaques reign over their onsen, huddling together. 

As a playful baby monkey splashes, the others don’t want to join in, and as the baby’s amusing antics wind down, parents and little ones reading the story will happily snuggle together like the macaques, warm and safe. Maggie Tokuda-Hall’s soothing narration, written entirely in haiku form—as befits its Japanese subject and natural themes—pairs with gorgeous illustrations by Yas Imamura. An author’s note offers insight into the habitat displacement and human intervention that led to the monkeys taking over this toasty, tranquil gathering spot.

🖤ROMANTASY🖤
Thank you @redtowerbooks for sending me an arc of HARBINGER by @genevaleebooks !

🖤I love the trope list! Touch her and die devotion is my fave! 

🖤 SYNOPSIS 🖤
Arden Icaros was never supposed to matter. From the poorest of five noble bloodlines, she prefers life on the family farm with dirt under her nails over the fine dresses at court. She just needs to get through one boring ceremony, inherit her earth magic, and return home.

Instead, she's handed a dagger and with it, an impossible choice.

Now Arden is branded an omen of war, half the nobility wants her dead, and assassins are tracking her every move.

Her only chance of survival lies with the most feared man in Antares.

They call him Bishop. No one remembers the name he had before he dedicated his life to his order. Empowered to execute first and question later, Bishop is ruthless, terrifying, and utterly loyal to the kingdom that wants Arden dead.

He should kill her.

Instead, he offers her sanctuary.

But the longer Arden stays under Bishop's protection, the more dangerous he becomes. Because Bishop has secrets powerful enough to topple kingdoms...and a need for Arden that could ruin them both.

📷 MIDDLE GRADE REC 📷
Thank you @holidayhousepeachtree for sending me STAINED by @rhondadechambeau ! 

📷This middle grade novel is verse is an uplifting and insightful read!

📷 SYNOPSIS 📷
In this stunning novel in verse, a boy watches his town grow bitterly divided from behind the lens of his camera… until he finds the courage to stand up for what’s right. A story of bravery, allyship, and risks worth taking.

Twelve-year-old Ulysses is new in town. Between his unusual name and the port-wine stain splashed across his face, he’s hardly looking for more attention. Uly is happiest hidden behind the lens of a camera, where he can obscure his appearance while taking in the world around him.

Luckily, his middle school needs a photographer for their mural project, and Uly gets to watch (and snap) as students come together to paint a local artist’s design. The mural is perfect: powerful words, images from nature, and even a painting mistake transformed into a tiny rainbow.

Except that tiny rainbow becomes a GIANT problem.

Murals are supposed
to bring communities together.
What does it say about
our community,
that our mural
must be destroyed over
something as innocent
as a rainbow?

Activism, art, and identity collide in this courageous story based on real-world events. Told in captivating, accessible verse, Rhonda DeChambeau captures a town in crisis and the unlikely heroes who step in to bring their community back together.

🌸BOOK TOUR🌸
Excited to join the @storygramkids book tour for FIRE IN YOUR BELLY by @rebecca.lafond.author , illustrated by @alymcknight !

🌸I loved learning about Indigenous storytelling in this bright and beautiful picture book!

🌸SYNOPSIS🌸
Late one night, a Cree girl's kookum (grandmother) tells her a bedtime story of how the world came to be. How long ago, embers fell from the sky and made all living things, big and small. And how, to this day, little pieces of the sky continue to live warm in our bellies. 

With lyrical, flowing text and powerful watercolor illustrations, this uplifting story illuminates how that fire within connects us all from generation to generation and is fed with every emotion we experience: It glows from joy when we’re picking fresh summer raspberries, hisses when emotions are a fierce storm, smolders with anger, and ignites when our bellies fill with laughter while splashing in puddles.
