The
Arrival Shaun Tan
In
a hearbreaking parting, a man gives his wife and
daughter a last kiss and boards a steamship to cross the
ocean. He's embarking on the most painful yet important
journey of his life--he's leaving home to build a better
future for his family. Shaun Tan evokes universal
aspects of an immigrant's experience through a singular
work of the imagination. Because the main character
can't communicate in words, the book forgoes them for
briliantly clear and mesmerizing images. But while the
reader experiences the main character's isolation, he
also shares his ultimate joy.

Time Traveler's
Journal Ed Masessa
The Great Fire of Chicago had
nothing to do with a cow, but everything to do with a
passing comet that sprayed the upper Great Lakes with
debris and caused massive firestorms. A small rock was
part of that debris. It contained an incredible amount
of stored energy, but was the size of a pea and weighed
next to nothing. Lieserl (Lisa) Einstein, well beyond
her father Albert in theoretical and mechanical ability,
purchased this pebble, harnessed its energy, and
developed a GCSL device (Galactic Cosmic String Locator)
to manipulate the pebble to allow her to locate cosmic
string tendrils and ride them to other time periods.
This book is Lisa's journal and a synopsis of her
travels through time.

Princess
Baby Karen Katz
“I am not a
buttercup, or a giggly goose. I am not a cupcake. Please
don’t call me Little Lamb, and never ever Gum Drop,” she
insists. With a curtsy and a twirl, again and again our
protagonist makes it abundantly clear who she is. She
wears a shiny crown, a fancy dress, sparkly shoes, a
velvet cape, and glittery jewels. Her persistence pays
off in the end, and even the youngest readers will be
cheering, “Princess Baby!”

Ma! There's Nothing To Do Here! A Word
From Your Baby In Waiting Barbara
Park
“Ma! there’s nothing to do here!” complains
the precocious protagonist of this rhyming tale set
entirely in utero. It’s not exactly a scintillating
experience spending nine months in your mother’s womb.
You’re just stuck there at the end of that dumb bungee
cord (a.k.a. the umbilical cord), with nothing
whatsoever to do but slosh around. But, oh, the endless
joys you have to look forward to as you listen to the
tick-tock of ma’s happy heart clock and await that happy
day when you finally come out to play.

Runemarks Joanne
Harris
In Maddy Smith’s world, order rules.
Chaos, old gods, fairies, goblins, magic, glamours–all
of these were supposedly vanquished centuries ago. But
Maddy knows that a small bit of magic has survived. The
“ruinmark” she was born with on her palm proves it–and
makes the other villagers fearful that she is a witch
(though helpful in dealing with the
goblins-in-the-cellar problem). But the mysterious
traveler One-Eye sees Maddy’s mark not as a defect, but
as a destiny. And Maddy will need every scrap of
forbidden magic One-Eye can teach her if she is to
survive that destiny.
