A beautiful reminder that kids know love when they feel it, and that love can endure against hateful ideology. This is such a wonderful story with a steadfast, inspirational main character. Love is love.

This quirky (and queer!) romantic comedy set at a struggling theme park is laugh-out-loud funny and painfully relatable. A great summer read for fans of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda.
Rebecca
Sweety is a little odd--even for a naked mole rat. A zany, charming book about finding people who share your interests, from interpretive dance to mushroom identification. Sweety will steal your heart!

Kalanthe and Olsa were on an epic adventure a year ago. They fell in love and came back heroes. But now, Kalanthe, an apprentice knight, needs to marry to pay off her debts, and Olsa isn't rich enough to qualify. Olsa is one of the most recognized people in the kingdoms, which makes her work as a thief frustratingly difficult. Told half in flashbacks and half in the more complicated post-adventure present, this story is a fascinating exploration of the question so many high fantasy novels ignore: what comes next?

The tale of Jack and the Beanstalk told from different cultural traditions in one complete narrative. Beautiful!
Robin
Kira puts her K9 rescue skills to the test when a child goes missing in a national park, but she uncovers more than she expected about local criminals and her own past.

This collection of fairytales includes both clever retellings and entirely new stories that still feel wonderfully familiar. The accompanying illustrations are beautiful, and feel as much a part of the stories as the words do. I wanted to read this over and over.

When Faith starts middle school, she also joins the soccer team. Her diverse teammates come with all the drama of middle school; is it even possible to be a team, let alone friends? Yeah, there’s soccer, but this graphic novel isn’t about sports.
