Best Day Ever! - Maya is having the longest day EVER. First, she oversleeps. Then there’s the endless bus ride, quiet voices, worksheets, messy paint, nine-hundred-mile walks through school, pizza she definitely doesn’t like, raisins she absolutely doesn’t like, and a whole lot of waiting. At least there’s recess! With her big personality and even bigger opinions, Maya dramatically makes her way through a first-grade day filled with friends, laughter, learning, and plenty of surprises. By the time she finally gets home, Maya is completely exhausted. So when Dad asks how her day was, there can only be one answer...

My Very, Very, Very Long First Day of Kindergarten - For one excited little girl, the morning begins at home as she gets dressed, eats breakfast, packs her lunch, and heads to the bus stop. Before she knows it, she's climbing aboard the school bus and beginning one of the biggest adventures of her young life. Filled with warm, colorful illustrations and familiar first-day experiences, My Very, Very Long First Day of Kindergarten is a reassuring picture book for children preparing to take this important step.

My First Halloween Night - On a child’s very first Halloween adventure, the night comes alive with glowing pumpkins, friendly neighbors, and the thrill of trick-or-treating. With a costume, a pumpkin pail, and wide-eyed excitement, the young Trick-or-Treater explores the crisp October darkness, discovering spooky fun, sweet surprises, and the magic that makes Halloween unforgettable.

A Firefly's Summer Journey – A lyrical, beautifully illustrated picture book that follows the humble firefly from its quiet beginnings in the soil to the sparkling summer dance that lights up the night.
