Back-to-School

Take a look at highlights from our new releases this Fall! This season is all about book love, celebrating that special connection readers can have with the right book, starting with Author vs. Illustrator, a hilarious picture book about the not-so-simple process of creating a picture book, Overdue, a story about a forgotten library book told from his point of view, and The Pass, a tender story of sports, reading, and friendship, celebrating the empowerment and connection a good book can give. Also new this season is Tana Cooks, an early chapter book series about a Choctaw second-grader who loves to cook and bake with her family, and Cyber Sleuths, a middle grade mystery series created in collaboration with the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE). Check out these books plus many more!

If you’re looking for the perfect read for back-to-school, we have you covered!
