Booktalk: When one little boy starts yawning, it’s not long before his entire neighborhood starts, too! The yawn spreads around the world to other countries, and even to space! From polar bears and penguins to elephants and astronauts the yawn circles the world and then comes for the reader letting them know that it is now bedtime!

Snippet:

You know you just can’t help it —
You’ll soon be yawning, too!

Booktalk: Beach days with Uncle Mike always bring something unexpected, like a shiny shell that turns out to be a hermit crab. But Uncle Mike has cancer. Not every surprise is a good one anymore. Soon Uncle Mike starts spending more and more time at the hospital, and the grown-ups start saying “we don’t know” over and over. One day Mom says Uncle Mike is gone. Gone where? What place could be better than his house on the beach? How could he leave without saying goodbye?
