Lupe Lopez: Rock Star Rules!

出版日：2022/06/28 作者：e.E. Charlton-Trujillo 出版社：Candlewick Pr 裝訂：精裝

When a sassy drummer starts kindergarten, the rules of school cramp her style. What’s a young rock star to do?When Lupe Lopez struts through the doors of Hector P. Garcia Elementary in sunglasses with two taped-up Number 2 pencils―drumsticks, of course―poking from her pocket, her confidence is off the charts. All day, Lupe drums on desks, tables, and chairs while Ms. Quintanilla reminds her of school rules. Lupe has her own rules: 1) Don’t listen to anyone. 2) Make lots of noise. ¡Rataplán! 3) Have fans, not friends. But with her new teacher less than starstruck, and fans hard to come by, Lupe wonders if having friends is such a bad idea after all. Can it be that true star power means knowing when to share the spotlight? With its spirited illustrations and a simple text threaded through with Spanish words, this picture book is proof positive that being a strong girl moving to her own beat doesn’t have to mean pushing others away.

From the creator of Jabari Jumps and Jabari Tries, the tale of a stalling child with a lively imagination―and a passion for animal facts―makes for the best kind of bedtime story.Mama would like Sweet Pea to settle into bed, but it’s not quite time. Even though the bed is fluffy, it’s not as snuggly as curling up like a pig in the mud, or as spacious as sleeping in the wide ocean like a blue whale. It’s not as fun as sleeping high up in a tree like a koala, or hanging upside down like a bat. And it’s definitely not as relaxing as sleeping standing up, like an emperor penguin. But after mimicking all the ways different animals rest, this little one concedes that a comfy bed, a soft pillow, and a good-night wish offer the best way to fall asleep after all. Gaia Cornwall brings us a loving, humorous story for even the most energetic of bedtime listeners.

A Dragon Used to Live Here

出版日：2022/04/12 作者：Annette LeBlanc Cate 出版社：Candlewick Pr 裝訂：精裝

But then they discover Meg, a cranky scribe who lives in the castle basement, leading a quirky group of artists in producing party invitations and other missives for the nobles above. Meg claims that she was a friend of their mother’s back when the two were kids―even before the dragon lived in the castle. Wait―a dragon? Not sure they can believe Meg’s tales, the kids return again and again to hear the evolving, fantastical story of their mother’s escapades (while putting their fussiest penmanship to work) and get caught up in a quest to reunite the onetime friends.Kidnapping, fighting, a ferocious dragon, loyal elves, and true love…coupled with squabbling siblings, archery

Six patient years later, word reached him: his rose had not only flourished; people were calling it the Peace Rose. An ideal gift fo

Find Out About Animal Babies

出版日：2022/04/05 作者：Martin Jenkins 出版社：Candlewick Pr 裝訂：精裝

A conservation biologist looks at some of the many kinds of animal babies―and the many ways their parents take care of them―in a gentle introduction for young children.Some animals have big babies (did you know a newborn whale weighs three tons?). And some animals have babies that are small (a new kangaroo, less than an inch long, climbs into its mother’s pouch to stay safe and warm). All animals have babies, but not all animal babies are the same, and not all animal parents are the same, either. From parents whose babies look just like them to those with no resemblance at all, from parents who raise their young in a crowd to those who do it all on their own, the range of family setups depicted here shows just how much the lives of animal babies can vary from the time they’re born. Melding a simple narration with more detailed facts on a variety of creatures from leopards to lizards, elephants to sea turtles, butterflies to chimpanzees, fish to flamingos, this fascinating picture book
