"All the animals think Crow is just cranky, but there's more to his actions than meets the eye"--

“Storytelling at its most brilliant—and whimsical.” —Kirkus Reviews&nbsp;(starred review)Everything is on the line for crabby, cranky Crow. But why, exactly, is Crow so moody? The reason will delight readers in three-time Geisel Medal and Caldecott Honor winner Corey R. Tabor’s funny and surprising twist on friendship, science, and saving the world.Cranky, crabby Crow does not want to play with Squirrel or do loop-de-loops with Hummingbird. He doesn’t have time for Rat or Bat. From high atop a telephone pole, Cat warns Crow that he will soon be all alone if he turns his friends away with his very cranky “kaw!” one more time. But, unbeknownst to all, Crow has bigger, world-saving fish to fry—he must protect planet Earth from an asteroid headed our way!With playful illustrations and a classic “Tabor twist,” Cranky, Crabby Crow is an excellent choice for readers who love Mo Willems and Jon Klassen. Kirkus Reviews calls Corey R. Tabor “a master of the early reader” with good reason, and here he once again proves himself an innovative and unforgettable storyteller. Cranky, Crabby Crow explores perennial, age-appropriate social and emotional themes through Corey R. Tabor’s signature subtlety and silliness. Includes a secret code.

A Graphic Novel

Clock Hands

Better off Dead

Driven from her nest, Little Bird crosses paths with other migrating animals, including humans, looking for a safe place to call home.
Reading like a modern nursery rhyme, Fly Away Home begins with a family of birds launched into exile as "a troubling of hummingbirds / brings news of beyond" and "the deceit of lapwings drives its family to roam."
Author Betty Quan gives animals thought-provoking collective nouns (a charm of goldfinches, a flamboyance of flamingoes)-some real, some invented-while Akin Duzakin's simple yet suggestive illustrations spark curiosity about the characters Little Bird encounters.
On the wing, Little Bird witnesses the mass migrations of other animals: monarch butterflies, caribou, sea turtles-and human, too, including one little girl with a pink backpack. After her family finds asylum, Little Bird meets the little girl on a balcony in a new city-a safe nest for both at last. 
With the world witnessing an unprecedented level of migration-for greater opportunities or because of conflicts and climate change-and over 40 million international migrants under the age of 20, Fly Away Home offers families and classrooms a hopeful entry to a complex topic.

Fly Away Home

One Amazing Story

This tender, affecting story of the life of a tree and its impact on a young girl is a glorious read-aloud in the vein of classics such as The Giving Tree and The Rabbit Listened. The backyard tree has meant everything to the girl in this story. It has been a companion, a shelter, and a setting for all kinds of games. But now it’s time to say goodbye, and to make room for a new backyard tree. And just as the old tree used to watch over the girl, she will now watch over the seedling as it grows. In soothing, melodic prose and gentle, glowing images, this story is about much more than a tree—it’s about family, about processing sadness, about the circle of life and the nourishment we all receive from nature.

More than a Tree

A charming picture book about accepting differences and loving
 what makes us unique - filled with super cute dogs!

 I wish I were a DIFFERENT dog, 
 the quick and clever sort. 
 Perhaps a spotty, dotty dog 
 with hair all trim and short.

 Max wishes he was A DIFFERENT DOG. His fur isn't FLUFFY enough to
 win Best In Show. His bark isn't LOUD enough to scare away danger.
 He doesn't sit . . . or heel . . . or fetch . . . or come back
 when you call, either.

 ​But Max's owner thinks he's PERFECT! Can Max learn
 that he's perfect, too?

 <li>Smriti Hall's bouncing rhyming story about a perfectly imperfect
 pooch is great fun to read aloud!
 </li><li>Chris Jevons' bright and bold illustrations of Max and all his
 furry friends bring the text to life with colour and humour
 </li><li>A gentle introduction to ideas of self-confidence and embracing
 our differences
 </li><li>If you like this, why not try Bun On The Run, also by
 Smriti Halls and Chris Jevons!
