The second book in the humorous, heartfelt, highly illustrated series about a girl who doodles to cope with her anxiety, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sara Shepard. Halfway through the fifth grade, Penny Lowry is discovering that things are actually going . . . okay! With her friends Maria, Kristian, and Rocco on her side, and her lovable dog Cosmo, she can make it through anything. And when her anxiety comes back, there’s always her doodling, or talking to Mrs. Hines, the Feelings Teacher. But big change is around the corner: Penny’s family is moving to a new house, her mom is about to give birth to twins, and most stressful of all, she’s been tapped for a role in her class play! Rolling with life’s surprises isn’t Penny’s strength. But she’s learning . . . one doodle at a time!
An illustrated book about the power of being yourself. How can we raise kids with the freedom to choose their own path in a world filled with prejudices? With her distinctive style and in her own words, María Herreros created this deeply personal illustrated book about identifying what makes us unique and wearing it on our sleeve with the fierceness of a lion. A book for kids who want to roar and proudly shake their locks.
An extraordinary voyage to the planet’s past framed by hands of a 24-hour clock. Millions of years in hours, minutes and seconds! The most fascinating story of all is without doubt the story of our planet. If we could condense its existence into 24 hours, humans would be present for just the last 4 seconds! So … what was going on during all the time before that? This book immerses us in an exciting journey through the planet’s previous eras. Did you know that in the beginning, Earth revolved so quickly around the Sun that each day lasted just 5 hours? And that at one point in its past, the Earth was nothing more than a giant snowball? Go back 250 million years, and it was home to dinosaurs and scorpions up to 70 centimeters long! A gorgeously illustrated book that makes it easy to understand the complex history of Earth, from its formation to the emergence of the first human beings.
From Raquel Díaz Reguera, a tenderhearted story that celebrates the role of all those who dedicate their lives to teaching. Trudi has started school. Every day, she is excited to watch the other birds and, especially, to learn new lessons from her teacher. When she gets home, she is bursting with stories to tell. Until one day, when she comes home downcast and with an urgent question for her parents: “Why didn’t you tell me that ostriches like us can’t fly?” To her, being a bird but unable to fly seems like the worst injustice imaginable. What Trudi doesn’t realize is that her teacher, Cococorina the hen, can’t fly, either! Raquel Díaz Reguera, author of Cuando las niñas vuelan alto, pays homage to educators in this colorfully illustrated volume, ideal for helping kids aged 4 and up understand the important role played by teachers in their lives.
A new story from the author of The Witch Who Didn’t Want to Be a Princess, which conveys a beautiful message about how valuable children are to their elders.

There, Julia will set-off on a magical and gigantic adventure where she will discover, alongside Bruno, a young wizard and new friend, that she is much more valuable than she thinks. Susanna Isern, author of The Witch Who Didn’t Want to Be a Princess and the Daniela Pirate series, brings us a moving story that will help children aged 4 and up, understand that despite any arguments or angry feelings, they are always important to the people who love them.
