FLC F19 C Akashic 1-2.indd 2 3/28/19 10:59 AM A very serious family book about not laughing at farting. Kids had better not laugh at this book. Are you laughing!? Quit it!

Thank you for taking this time to make farts a serious family discussion. This is a family book that will illustrate situations for kids where farting is absolutely NOT FUNNY. Guided by the parental voice of the narrator, we are asked to take farts seriously. Farts are not funny in the library, while visiting Granny, and they are definitely not funny while riding a roller coaster. This is serious. If you feel the subject of this book might make you laugh, then you’re the wrong family for it. We’re very serious about that. No laughing.

On the brink of execution in Cape Town, South Africa in 2055, sixteen-­ year-­old Ebba is unexpectedly elevated from the bunker deep in Table Mountain where she has lived all her life, believing that the world “Above” is uninhabitable. Instead, she is heiress to a massive fortune and a direct descendant of the goddess, who has bequeathed her a mission to save the earth.

FLC F19 C Catalyst 9-10.indd 10 3/28/19 10:58 AM Pray you never find your Summerwood, Grandfather had said. I’d found something worse. I’d found his.

In Summerwood, twelve-­year old Rosalind Hero Cheung can’t wait to spend the summer in Toronto with her teenaged sister Julie and their famous author grandfather. Years ago Walter Denison wrote a series of bestselling children’s novels about a magical land called the Summerwood. But to Hero’s dismay, Walter is cold toward his granddaughters and Julie derides Hero’s hope that the Summerwood is real. Nevertheless one day she and Julie stumble into the Summerwood. Ruled by the beautiful and enigmatic Lady of Summer, it is the idyllic fantasy land out of Walter’s books, complete with quaintly dressed talking animals. However, Hero discovers the Summerwood is far more sinister than Walter had ever let on. Julie is abducted and to save her life, Hero must find the Summerwood’s sacred winter stag. Hero quickly learns that setting out on a fantasy quest is far more prosaic—­and terrifying—­than she’d ever imagined, and there is a steep and bloody price to pay for being the hero. In Winterwood, three years have passed since Lindy Cheung went into the Summerwood and emerged changed and broken. Now she’s getting into trouble—­starting fights, skipping school, dating unsuitable boys. After Summerwood/ her mother grounds her—­again—­she runs off to Toronto to her sister, Winterwood the only person who knows what really happened three years ago. But E. L. Chen Juliet has moved on from the trauma, and Lindy finds herself back in the Summerwood, where an old enemy tells her: The stag must die again. And this time, in order to save the Summerwood, she has to be the bad guy instead of the hero.

Following last season’s Little Parsley, this new poetry volume by Inger Hagerup was first published in Norway in 1971. At the time, it was a literary scandal for offering free verse to children, who were best suited, as the critics claimed, to the orderly rhymes of established poetic forms. Time and the inherently free and wild forms of youthful imagination have proven the critics completely wrong. Gorgeously illustrated by Paul René Gauguin, grandson of the famous Paul Gauguin, with his most antic line, as well as hand lettered, and playfully translated by Becky L. Crook, this collection of Hagerup poems is pure pleasure.

What is a river? It’s water, the source of life. It’s also a journey, visiting mountains, cities, and oceans. It’s a home; it’s shelter. It’s energy, giving away its force to humans for power and industry. It’s a meeting place, a memory, a place to wash, to find food, to dream. It’s word and place—essential material and symbol combined. Such is a river.

Born in Lithuania, Monika Vaicenavicˇiene˙ graduated from the Konstfack Art School in Sweden. What Is a River? is her debut picture book. To make it, she used pencils, watercolors, gouache, digital tools, as well as a collection of references about rivers.

Great Expectations for Middle Graders by debut author Erin Yun.

Life is full of great expectations for Korean American Pippa Park. It seems like everyone, from her family to the other kids at school, has a plan for how her life should look. So when Pippa gets a surprising basketball scholarship to Lakeview Private, she jumps at the chance to reinvent herself. Pippa struggles with popularity and the pressure to perform academically and athletically while keeping her past and family’s laundromat a secret from her elite new classmates. Juggling jealous Queen Bees, old and new friends, and an unrequited crush is hard enough. But when Pippa begins to receive a string of hateful, anonymous messages via social media, things begin to spiral out of control. With pressure mounting, Pippa discovers the real reason she was admitted to Lakeview Private, and wonders if she can keep her old and new lives separate.

She served as president of the NYU policy debate team and as the debate consultant for the Broadway play What the Constitution Means to Me.

“When I came to Milwaukee, on my first day of school, a teacher said, ‘You came here, you have opportunities. You can do whatever you want.’ They asked, ‘What will you be in the future?’ I thought for a while, and decided to become a doctor. In my home country, a lot of people died when we lived in the camps. There was not enough water or enough food. A lot of people died from diseases . . . That’s why I decided to be a doctor. And that is why I am studying hard in school.” —­Aziz Kamal, Myanmar (Rohingya)

FLC F19 C Haymarket 45-46.indd 46 3/28/19 10:53 AM Some heroes aren’t really that brave, nor all that smart. Some heroes are hobgoblins who smell like a fart.

Set in the faraway (and terrible-­smelling) land of Rancidia, where it’s good to smell bad and bad to smell good, this uproarious send-­up of Snow White follows the adventures of the profoundly stinky Hobgoblin as he flees the jealous wrath of a democracy-­hating ogre named Fiddlefart. Book One of the Hazy Fables series of early chapter books, Hobgoblin and The Seven Stinkers of Rancidia modernizes (and stinks up) the themes of a classic fairytale to deliver a timely story of the virtues of equality and the evils of self-­absorbed tyrants.

Kyle Sullivan is the author of the Hazy Dell Press Monster Series of children’s board books, and the picture book The Cyclops Witch and the Heebie-Jeebies. He lives in Portland, OR.

What if the person you are supposed to hate turns out to be the person who can save your life? With one being Jewish and the other being a member of the Jungvolk (Hitler Youth), twelve-­year olds Emil Rosen and Friedrich Weber would appear to be natural enemies. Despite their opposing backgrounds, they must both deal with the changes steamrolling through Germany in the summer of 1938. Friedrich struggles with a cruel new Jungvolk leader and an uncle in jail for espousing anti-­Nazi ideas, while Emil does his best to avoid the increasingly vitriolic anti-­semitism which is threatening him and his family. As the rules of yesterday begin to no longer make sense, both boys find comfort at a private spot along the Leine River. Then in the late hours of November 9th, 1938, their world unravels as the nightmare of Kristallnacht explodes onto the streets. With everything now at stake, the two boys are forced together in a race against time as Friedrich risks his life to save Emil and his family.

FLC F19 C Inhabit 53-58.indd 58 3/28/19 11:09 AM The true, graphic novel memoir of Kim Hyun Sook, who risked her family, freedom, and future to pursue forbidden knowledge in the shadow of a repressive regime.

It’s 1983 in South Korea. Army General Chun Doo-­hwan has been the county’s dictator for three years, following his 1980 coup d’etat and brutal subjugation of the Gwangju Uprising. And nineteen-­year-­old Kim Hyun Sook, the only daughter of restaurateurs, has just begun college. Urged to stay out of politics and student activism by her worried parents, Hyun Sook is nevertheless drawn into dangerous campus protests, where the handsome young editor of the school newspaper invites her to a book club meeting. As a student of Western Literature, she expects Moby Dick, Hamlet, and The Scarlet Letter; instead, she finds herself inducted as the youngest member of an underground banned book club. Will she and her new friends stay clear of Chun’s secret police? Or will this clandestine collection of defiant college kids get disappeared, like so many before them? A true-­life memoir by the woman who lived it.

This is authorKim Hyun Sook’s first book, and it will be her only book. Banned Book Club Co-author­ Ryan Estrada is a cartoonist, world traveler, contributor to The Nib, and Kim Hyun Sook and reporter for Busan eFM, a South Korean radio station.

Scout Montana is Shadoweyes, hero of Dranac. The festering, futuristic city is overrun with gangs, violence, and crime, and when her mysterious shapeshifting powers first manifested, the teenaged Scout was eager to put them to good use, fighting back against her hometown’s urban decay. But that was before she became stuck in her new, monstrous form. Before the city’s worst terrors began kidnapping her friends, and ambushing them in the street. Before she saw how terrible the people of the town she loved could really, truly be. Trapped in an alien body she has no control over and traumatized by what she’s seen and done, how will Shadoweyes pull Dranac back from the brink? Is it even worth saving, anymore? The final installment in the two-­part series.

FLC F19 C Leapfrog 69-70.indd 70 3/28/19 11:07 AM A new Hanukkah classic and introduction for kids to the Holocaust.

Theodore Bikel was an admired actor, folk singer, musician, composer, unionist, and political activist. He appeared in numerous Hollywood films, and in 1959 he co-­founded the Newport Folk Festival. A seasoned Broadway actor and singer, Bikel starred as Tevye in the musical, Fiddler on the Roof, a role he performed more often than any other actor to date. In 2014, at the age of ninety, Bikel was invited by Moment Magazine to write a Hanukkah story, and he chose to explore a crucial event that shaped his development as an author, actor, and activist. He captured these memories in a poignant story, The City of Light, set in Vienna in 1937–1938 during Nazi Germany’s annexation of Austria and Kristallnacht, “The Night of Broken Glass.” In this story, a young Jewish boy strolls through Vienna and witnesses acts of anti-­Semitism during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. At night he dreams of a superhero, Judah Maccabee, who appears to defend Vienna’s Jews. When he awakes, he knows there will be no Maccabean rescue, and he weeps. Years pass, the boy, now an old man, returns to Vienna and sees the Jewish community and the Temple have been restored. He looks for the eternal light in his Temple and can’t find it. Then suddenly it becomes clear to him: “The light was there all the time, it was in his own heart.” In December 2014, The City of Light appeared in Moment Magazine and was read aloud on NPR’s Hanukkah Lights by hosts Susan Stamberg and Murray Horwitz. It now appears for the first time as an illustrated book in time for Hanukkah 2019 and can now be read and appreciated by all readers, The City of Light ages 10 and up in a new and expanded version with a glossary and foreword Theodore Bikel by Aimee Ginsburg Bikel.

“A Rule Is To Break says: Go ahead and throw your best self a party! So glad it exists.”—­Kristin Hersh, Throwing Muses “After encountering the lively little anarchist in John and Jana’s delightful A Rule is To Break, I will always remember the playful little devil with a mind of her own. A children’s book on anarchy seems somehow just right: an instinctive, intuitive sense of fairness, community, and interdependence sits naturally enough with a desire for participatory democracy, self-­ determination, and peace and global justice.” —­Bill Ayers, author of To Teach: The Journey in Comics and Fugitive Days

Simply celebrating childhood: the joy, the wonder of discovery, the spontaneity, and strong emotions. . . . Wild Child is free to do as she pleases. A Rule Is To Break: A Child’s Guide to Anarchy follows Wild Child as she learns about just being herself and how that translates into kid autonomy. It presents the ideas of challenging societal expectations and tradition and expressing yourself freely in kid-­terms that are both funny and thought Rompe las Reglas provoking—­it even functions as a guidebook for adults to understand what it Manual infantil sobre la anarquía is to be a critically thinking, creative individual.

The Guardian’s nonfiction pick for “Best Children’s Books for All Ages.”

Without prompting, children often ask some of the largest questions about time, mortality, happiness, and the meaning of life.

This book addresses some of their more complex questions by introducing accessible philosophical concepts from twenty-five famous thinkers, contextualized in relatable everyday scenarios. Presented in an interactive question and answer format this book takes us to meet leading figures of philosophy from around the world and from all eras—and shows us how their ideas continue to matter. With discussions about some of the most vibrant and essential philosophical ideas of history, this accessible book functions as an ideal introduction to the subject, as well as a charming way to open conversations Big Ideas for between children and adults about the biggest questions we all face.
