Book Description
The Shy Little Monster began as a children's song created by Stephanie Leavell. Stephanie - a mom, music educator, and Berklee-trained music therapist - wanted to create a sweet and silly (not scary!) Halloween song that would delight her preschool music groups. Illustrator Sarah Pilar Echeverria and Stephanie are friends (they were born on the same day, in the same hospital, but became friends much later!) who bonded over their love of creating. Sarah is a mom of two with a lifelong passion for art and an everlasting love for children's books. She hopes her own illustrations can spark excitement and creativity in kids. This book shows kids that it's okay to be shy (so are Stephanie and Sarah!), it's okay to ask for help and, most importantly, good friends are always there to offer some encouragement and help you find your voice.

Book Description
As a young child readies for bed, the sounds of his family echo around him, lulling him to sleep. The beats of cars passing on the street outside and of raindrops falling onto the roof overhead punctuate a rhythm created by the shouts of uncles over a barbeque, the clink of dishes washed by cousins, a grandfather's booming laughter. These sounds come together to create the soundtrack of a child's life. A soundtrack of love. Christopher Myers and Timbaland, stars in their respective fields, collaborate to create a beautiful read-aloud full of music and rhythm.

Their fate is changed forever when a dare lands them on the doorstep of one of the scariest monsters in the whole world— Macabber Tails, one of the most famous monstering champions in history.

Book Description
An irresistible, nostalgic, insightful—and totally original—ramble through classic children’s literature from Vanity Fair contributing editor (and father) Bruce Handy. “Consistently intelligent and funny…The book succeeds wonderfully.” —The New York Times Book Review “A delightful excursion…Engaging and full of genuine feeling.” —The Wall Street Journal “Pure pleasure.” —Vanity Fair “Witty and engaging…Deeply satisfying.” —Christian Science Monitor In 1690, the dour New England Primer, thought to be the first American children’s book, was published in Boston. Offering children gems of advice such as “Strive to learn” and “Be not a dunce,” it was no fun at all. So how did we get from there to “Let the wild rumpus start”? And now that we’re living in a golden age of children’s literature, what can adults get out of reading Where the Wild Things Are and Goodnight Moon, or Charlotte’s Web and Little House on the Prairie? In Wild Things, Bruce Handy revisits the classics of American childhood, from fairy tales to The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and explores the backstories of their creators, using context and biography to understand how some of the most insightful, creative, and witty authors and illustrators of their times created their often deeply personal masterpieces. Along the way, Handy learns what The Cat in the Hat says about anarchy and absentee parenting, which themes link The Runaway Bunny and Portnoy’s Complaint, and why Ramona Quimby is as true an American icon as Tom Sawyer or Jay Gatsby. It’s a profound, eye-opening experience to reencounter books that you once treasured after decades apart. A clear-eyed love letter to the greatest children’s books and authors, from Louisa May Alcott and L. Frank Baum to Eric Carle, Dr. Seuss, Mildred D. Taylor, and E.B. White, Wild Things will bring back fond memories for readers of all ages, along with a few surprises.
