Isn’t this amazing? Makes me want to take a year off and just read right down this list! I’m especially eager for Joyce Sidman’s HELLO EARTH.
So many exciting new releases! But I think Grayling’s Song is just the paperback release — the hardcover came out in 2016.
Good catch, Misti – my mistake! I went in and removed it.
Reading Ways to Make Sunshine to a group of 2nd graders right now. It’s fantastic and they are all loving it!
So many great authors.
Oh how can I get all of these to read NOW!!!
