Booktalk: When Bill can’t be found at school one day, the imaginations of the other children run wild. Is he on vacation? Is he lost in the park? Has he been eaten by a shark? It’s up to Bill’s sister to explain that everyone needs to chill. *A sister acts as an LGBTQ ally by answering everyone’s questions about where her brother Bill has gone.*

Yawn
by Patricia Hegarty (Author) and Teresa Bellon (Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop

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:
It started with a
YAWN
that came out of the blue.

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