Rafael is finally old enough to visit the supermarket without having to ride up top in the cart. He promises Mama he will stay by her side, and for a while, he does . . . but after enjoying the cookie samples from the wonderful-smelling bakery section, Rafa sees a wayward berry bounce past and he chases after it. The next thing he knows, none of the legs look familiar. Where is his mama? A sweet, clever, and wise story that every parent and wandering child will recognize as their own. A special Q&A at the end contains expert advice about what to do should your own little Rafa go wandering in a sea of unfamiliar legs.

A wise and sweet universal story about wandering off from Mama. @angielucas

Snapshot of School library Journal's article about The Adventures of Penguin and Panda, a new graphic novel series for kids 6-9. The images show Penguin and Panda riding a roller coster on the book cover. The other interior images show scenes as Penguin and Panda are engaging in conversations about having a picnic together. Penguin has pigtails, Both characters are very cute and expressing a lot of emotions. Snapshot of School library Journal's article about The Adventures of Penguin and Panda, a new graphic novel series for kids 6-9. The image shows Penguin and Panda riding a roller coaster car on yellow background on the book cover. Penguin pigtails are up in the air, they are riding towards us and both cute cartoony characters are obviously thrilled and having fun. The author of the book series is Brenda Maier, the illustrator is Fanni Mezes, the books are published by Marble Press. Snapshot of School library Journal's article about One Alley Summer, a middle grade novel written by Anne Yilvisaker. The book cover shows a young girl aged around 10-12 dressed on red t-shirt and blue shorts, perching up high on a tree, holding her journal on her lap. She is half hidden by the leaves and the shades. Below her, in the bright sunshine, another girl rolling from left to right on her skateboards.

What a lovely thing to wake up in the morning.
@sljournal blogger Betsy Bird penned a few kind words about our beloved spring list, a new, ER GN series, The Adventures of Penguin and Panda, and the pitch perfect MG novel, One Alley Summer.

After her parents’ divorce, Ellie is forced to move to a new town. She reads comic books to escape the loneliness she feels in her new class. Mom has the perfect solution. Her daughter needs to join a sports team to make friends. If only there were no bullies… and she wasn’t so hopelessly clumsy. Then one night, enchanted at a ballet, Ellie suddenly realizes that what she wants to do more than anything is dance. Unfortunately, mom doesn’t approve. A page turner, full of relatable conflicts, Ellie in First Position is a humorous, and positive story about resilience, self-love, new experiences, bullying and friendship.

I wish we had time to answer each one of you who are in many cases are really close to be accepted. Unfortunately, we have a very limited capacity to offer feedback or mentorship. We keep thinking about the solution and have some plans.
