To Dance: Special Edition
by Siena Cherson Siegel (Author) and Mark Siegel (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Ballerinas are young when they first dream of dance. Siena was six–and her dreams kept skipping and leaping, circling and spinning, from airy runs along a beach near her home in Puerto Rico, to dance classes at the School of American Ballet, to her debut performance on stage with the New York City Ballet while working with ballet legend George Balanchine.

Part family history, part backstage drama, this updated graphic memoir with a brand-new scrapbook of Siena’s mementoes is a firsthand look a young dancer’s beginnings.

The Very, Very Far North
by Dan Bar-el (Author) and Kelly Pousette (Illustrator)

Booktalk: In the Very, Very Far North, past the Cold, Cold Ocean and just below the hill that looks like a baby whale, you’ll find Duane and his friends.

Duane is a sweet and curious young bear who makes friends with everyone he meets–whether they’re bossy, like Major Puff the puffin, or a bit vain, like Handsome the musk ox, or very, very shy, like Boo the caribou. For these arctic friends, every day is a new adventure!
