Senorita Gordita<\/a>
\nby Helen Ketteman (Author) and Will Terry (Illustrator)<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> In this Tex-Mex retelling of The Little Gingerbread Man, Senorita Gordita –a little corn cake– escapes from the frying pan and leads a merry chase. (Try the recipe for gorditas in the back!)<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> And with a flip, and a skip, and a zip-zoom-zip, off she ran. Lagarto skittered after her.

Floors<\/a>
\nby Patrick Carman
\n272 pages<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Ten-year-old Leo Fillmore should know everything there is to know about the Whippet Hotel–he is the janitor’s son after all. But a whole lot of mystery gets thrown his way when four cryptic boxes are left to him…boxes that lead him to hidden floors, strange puzzles, and an unexpected friend or two.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> Leo sat up in bed and thought of his mother’s voice; then he thought of ducks and breakfast. After that, he remembered the one thing he’d hoped to forget in his sleep: Merganzer D. Whippet, the owner and creator of the Whippet Hotel, was gone.<\/p>\n
