Booktalk: When a boy can’t find his favorite stuffed bunny, he bravely heads into the woods to look for it. Instead, he finds a big, scary brown bear!
Snippet: Every night before bed, I turn on my night-light, read a story, curl up under a blanket, and give my bunny a hug. But last night, I couldn’t find my bunny anywhere!

Chapter Book of the Day
by Enrique Flores-Galbis (Author)
304 pages
Booktalk: When Julian’s parents make the heartbreaking decision to send him and his two brothers away from Cuba to Miami via the Pedro Pan operation, the boys are thrust into a new world where bullies run rampant and it’s not always clear how best to protect themselves.
Snippet:
My mother waits for the kitchen door to slam shut and then sits down. She hides her face in her hands. “She’s not just a nosy neighbor; she can have you sent away.”
“I’m sure she can’t–” my father starts, but my mother interrupts him.
“Yes, she can and they’re doing it already.”
