11,004 | 2 | Gr 15In this first book of a new series, Lola is a second grader who loves sports, especially soccer. She also enjoys expressing her feelings by writing her diary. And she has a bratty little brother. Sound familiar? Her classmates think she is a tomboy, and the boys don't like to play games with her because she hurt a fellow classmate, Juan Gomez, by mistake. So now she is known as Mean Lola Levine. Lola is half Jewish and half Peruvian, and her favorite word is shalomthough it's a bit overused throughout the book. She deals with typical woes, such as worrying about how to survive in school, and she learns an important lesson about how words can hurt others. Her supportive family and best friend, Josh, help her cope. The writing style is typical of the genre: straightforward and predictable. Beginning chapter book readers will enjoy Lola's spunk and humor. Black-and-white illustrations are sprinkled throughout. VERDICT A good choice for chapter book collections.Janene Corbin, Rosebank Elementary School, Nashville, TN* "Brown introduces a smart, young protagonist with a multicultural background in this series opener for chapter-book readers. Celebrate a truly accepting multicultural character."Kirkus Reviews, starred review"If you've never had a best friend, Lola Levine will undoubtedly become your first. Her appeal is boundless."Rita Williams-Garcia, Coretta Scott King Author Award winner for One Crazy Summer"Lola Levine is a joy, and even though she stops goals at soccer games, she could never stop readers from smiling as they eagerly wait for her next adventure."Diana Lpez, author of Confetti Girl andAsk My Mood Ring How I Feel"Readers will cheer as Lola balances her troubles at school with the same smart skills that she uses to dominate the soccer field. A lovely bicultural character--and her richly drawn group of peers--promises a cherished new series."Meg Medina, Pura Belpr winner for Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass"Lola's vivacious personality spills out over the pages. Domiguez's b&w spot illustrations are in step with the upbeat mood, and beyond the soccer theme of this book, Brown highlights Lola's blended heritage, love of animals, and interest in writing, introducing plenty of material to explore in future books."Publishers Weekly"This first entry in a smartly crafted new series introduces Lola, best friend Josh Blot, and her family. The appealing protagonist is energetic and enthusiastic [and] with as much about family and friends as about sports, this chapter book should have broad appeal."Booklist"Beginning chapter book readers will enjoy Lola's spunk and humor. A good choice for chapter book collections."School Library Journal"Lola's personality shines through here, with a vibrant first-person narration that matches her energetic spirit."The Bulletin"This book tackles common problems for young children using humor and good sense, resulting in peaceful solutions. Simple, expressive pictures are interspersed throughout, keeping the reader engaged. This first book in a proposed series is a great book for the beginning chapter book reader."School Library Connection; Title: Lola Levine Is Not Mean! | [

11,011 | 7 | Gr 7 UpIt is 2034, and the world is still dealing with the aftereffects of a vaccine that caused .003 percent of the population to develop superpowers of precognition (eludere), body manipulation (dauthus), perfect memory (eidos), levitation (levitas), telepathy (mentalist), mind control (dominus), or the ability to cast illusions (illusive). All Americans must wear tags that indicate that they were vaccinated and tested for "adverse effects." People who test positive (and are not wealthy enough to acquire false tags) are forced into government work or the military. Or they become criminals. Continuing where Illusive (Little, Brown, 2014) left off, this sequel finds Ciere and Alan now working for the Gyr Syndicate, the most powerful mob in America. Ciere is learning to hone her powers of illusion while helping to eliminate a rival crime organization. Devon, a secret eidos, has been kicked out of another boarding school and is offered an internship with Homeland Security. Daniel, an eludere, is under control of a dominus and is partnered with a federal agent to try to stop the kidnapping of hidden positives. Lloyd-Jones deftly weaves several plot strands, using flashbacks to impart background information. Snappy dialogue and harrowing action scenes move the twisting plot along and maintain suspense throughout. The three main characters alternate first-person narration, so readers learn their innermost thoughts and empathize with these kids who are caught up in uncertain and dangerous circumstances. Fans of the series will be breathlessly waiting for the next installment. VERDICT A must-read for fans of intrigue and superpowered villains.Martha Simpson, Stratford Library Association, CTPraise for Deceptive:; Title: Deceptive (Illusive) | [

11,013 | 7 | PreS-Gr 1In this counting book, rhyming text follows one, two, three, and up to 10 witches as they gather on a single broom for a perilously crowded flight. They zip, glide, and dive as they haunt, chant, incant, rave, and rant. One by one they "hit reverse" and leave the broom, pushing for room, they "squabblesquirmtopple" off, sliding down through lightning and a drenching rain, before slipping down into the night. Detailed ink sketches of each individual witch (a diverse collection of cartoon characters highlighted in watercolor) fill scenes of towering castles, a helpful resident dragon, animated skeletons tending the graveyard, and nighttime frolics around cauldrons. Miniscule bats hang from the ceiling of Dracula's rooms, and witches dangle upside down from the larger broom, while a lone little witch finally escapes with her faithful kitten across a harvest moon. VERDICT A mildly spooky general purchase for all libraries, this may be just the ticket for detail-driven independent readers, who will enjoy finding the lightly hidden numbers on each page or perhaps telling the story behind each scene.Mary Elam, Learning Media Services, Plano ISD, TXPraise for Zip!

11,033 | 13 | Gr 4-6-The jokes fall flat in this mediocre tale of family, middle school mishaps, and personal acceptance. Jacky recounts her life during the 1990s, when George H.W. Bush was president and Nintendo was popular. Jacky Hart, the fourth of six sisters, uses her quick wit to disguise her speech impediment. Although she makes herself a promise to behave differently in middle school, she unfortunately ends up, once again, being the class clown. This stems from her home life. There, she needs to be a personal cheerleader to her sisters, as their father is mysteriously missing during family dinners and their mother is off serving in Operation Desert Shield. When Jacky finds herself in big trouble for being a jokester, Mrs. O'Mara, a new English teacher, helps her realize that she has talent far beyond collecting detentions. Readers will find Jacky entertaining, but her character is ultimately unoriginal. Cartoon illustrations are interspersed throughout the novel, similar to those in Patterson's I Funny (Little, Brown, 2013) and Rachel Renee Russell's "Dork Diaries" series (S. & S.). While the art is playful and fun to look at, it never feels essential to the text. Readers may find Jacky's grown-up narration confusing, as she recounts her life as a middle schooler. The ending is unrealistic. VERDICT Despite its many shortcomings, this title is sure to have high circulation among fans of Patterson's previous works.-Jessica Bratt, Grand Rapids Public Library, Grand Rapids, MI(c) Copyright 2011.

11,039 | 2 | K-Gr 2The title of this book says it all. The message, repeated in large, colorful letters across brightly colored backgrounds with lots of simple, cartoonish illustrations, is one for every child to hear. The sentence, "Be proud of where you're from" is illustrated with six different abodes: a thatched-roof hut, a trailer, a doghouse, a single home, an apartment house, and a Middle Easternstyle building. "Be your own family" is illustrated with a spaceship filled with individuals of different colors, genders, and species (there is a dog included), all with alien horns. A simple message is repeated with new examples on each spread. Parr's illustrations have a touch of Keith Haring and a smidge of "POW!" (as seen in pop art), which are very effective for getting readers' attention. Combine this offering with Kerascot's Paul and Antoinette as a starting point for a lively conversation about individuality, diversity, and acceptance. Extend the discussion to include more focus on individuals with disabilities by adding Kathy Hoopmann's All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome. VERDICT A first choice for all collections. There cannot be too many options that encourage this sentiment in children.Mary Hazelton, formerly at Warren & Waldoboro Elementary Schools, MEPublishers WeeklyBe Who You AreBy Todd ParrOctober 2016 | $17.99 | Ages 3 - 6ISBN978-0-316-26523-2 | Ebook ISBN 978-0-316-26522-5"Be who you are," begins Parr, inan emphatic call to embrace one's individuality. "Be old. Be young. Be a different color." (Given that this is a Parr book, it goes without saying that those colors could be purple, pink, or green.)Working in his customary boldly outlined, vibrantly colored drawing style, Parr balances bold proclamations with playful humor."Learn in your own way," he writes as a cat looks at a bowl of dog food, clearly intrigued; humans are encouraged to broaden their tastes, too, as Parr lines up a row of food trucks for a spread that reads "Try new things."Subtle visual moments should speak to the readers who need them(a boy wears a feather boa, a mouse stands up to a cat with a firm "no!"),but there's nothing quiet about Parr's overall point, which roars across several pages in capital letters: "Just be who you are!"Publishers WeeklyKirkusBe WhoYouAreBy Todd ParrOctober 2016 | $17.99 | Ages 3 - 6ISBN 978-0-316-26523-2 | Ebook ISBN 978-0-316-26522-5A call to celebrate unique characteristics and individuality."Be who you are" is essentially the message behind every Parr book, subtle or not. His latest doesn't pull any punches; it splashes self-acceptance across every page. "Be old. Be young. / Be a different color." (Not that one ever has to remind Parr's readers of that!) "Be silly" is paired with the obligatory shot of underwear on one's head, while "Be brave" shows a tiny fish face to face with a shark (the shark just might be the bravest of all). A more-contemplative scene shows a cat peering curiously at a dog's food bowl, with the guidance: "Learn in your own way." (A few pages later two turquoise pigeons peer at a hot dog; a nifty literary nod.) A note to readers tells of Parr's fourth-grade penchant for clip-on ties and purple sunglasses. To children everywhere, as well as to the child within himself, Parr declares: "Wear everything you need to be you." Accompanying this invitation are six smiling figures, one a child with close-cropped hair, trousers, and a pink boa and another with an enormous Afro. Parr's trademark bright colors and wild fashion abound, but the one thing that unifies all? A single line, curved into a smile. A simple spin on Parr's It's Okay to Be Different (2001) but stillworth shouting from the rooftops.SLJ:The title of this book says it all.The message, repeated in large, colorful letters across brightly colored backgrounds with lots of simple, cartoonish illustrations, is one for every child to hear.

The illustrations add whimsy and embrace diversity("Be a different color," the text proclaims, showing characters with skin tones in green, yellow, blue, purple and orange; hairstyles defy description).Some exhortations are traditional ("Be the best that you can be"), while others arefresh and unexpected("Be your own family"). The underlying message to "just be who you are!" is repeated every few pages, creating a liltingrefrain that begs to be chanted en masse during story hour.

11,041 | 0 | Gr 48The Towers Falling author once again tackles a timely yet difficult subject. In Chicago, 12-year-old black youth Jerome is shot and killed by a white police officer who mistakes a toy gun for a real one. As a ghost, Jerome witnesses the aftermath gripping both his family and that of the police officers. Jerome also meets another ghostthat of Emmett Till, a black boy murdered in 1955. Through Till's story, he learns of the hundreds of other "ghost boys" left to roam and stop history from continually repeating itself. The only person who can see Jerome is the daughter of the white police officer, Sarah, and through her eyes, he realizes that his family isn't the only one affected by the tragedy. Two families are destroyed with one split decision, and Sarah and Jerome together try to heal both of their families, along with Jerome's friend Carlos. It was Carlos' toy gun that Jerome was playing with, leaving Carlos with great guilt and the intense desire to protect Jerome's little sister, Kim, from bullies and other sorrows. Deftly woven and poignantly told, this a story about society, biases both conscious and unconscious, and trying to right the wrongs of the world. VERDICT Rhodes captures the all-too-real pain of racial injustice and provides an important window for readers who are just beginning to explore the ideas of privilege and implicit bias.Michele Shaw, Quail Run Elementary School, San Ramon, CAPraise for Ghost Boys:; Title: Ghost Boys | [

11,042 | 2 | PreS-Gr 1Little Hoshi is a sea star who has her sights set on the sparkling sky. She wishes she were "up there, where all is fine. Up there, where I would shine!" Many listeners will relate to McDonnell's self-pitying protagonist, who thinks everything would be perfect, if only. The narrative is conveyed primarily in prose; rhymes are used twice to focus attention on the central struggle. As in Stoop's Red Knit Cap Girl, the use of a plywood canvasto which acrylic, pencil, pastel, and ink have been applied and digitally manipulatedcleverly allows the grain of the wood to become the irregular lines of the ocean current or the heat radiating from the sun. The artist employs pattern, color, and scale to create surprises as the pages turn when Hoshi is imagining the wonders in the heavens (while missing the school of minnows, the vibrant coral, and the enormous whale passing by). The sea star's red orange coloring contrasts with the gray ocean depths, where she has retreated in despair. A chance encounter with an anglerfish, whose luminescence Little Hoshi envies, helps her learn the secret of shining: being happy with one's situation, with one's self. As she rises back to the water's surface, her heart glows. VERDICT A lovely but somewhat purposeful title to share one-on-one or with a small group. Fans of McDonnell and Stoop will appreciate the pleasing way the medicine goes down.Wendy Lukehart, District of Columbia Public LibraryPraise for Shine!:; Title: Shine! | [

11,048 | 2 | PreS-Gr 1A superb selection about teachers and all they do for their students. They teach children new things, inspire creativity, and help them realize their talents. The best ones make kids laugh, provide comfort, and help when it is needed the most. Teachers do their best to make their classrooms feel like they are the greatest place to be. They celebrate events throughout the year, take the class on field trips, and make families feel welcome. Teachers buy supplies and decorations, allow an assortment of creatures for show-and-tell, and assist students with all types of problems. A section at the end of the book helps young ones understand that teachers are regular people who sleep at night, spill things on the floor, brush their teeth, and even buy underwear. As with all of his titles, Parr has included simple and powerful, kid-friendly illustrations. The colors are bright, vivid, and eye-catching. Animal characters help make this book entertaining and truly diverse. VERDICT A fun offering to share with any preschool class.Barbara Spiri, Southborough Library, MA; Title: Teachers Rock! | [

11,049 | 2 | Praise for Public School Superhero: "The authors never get too preachy for their own good.... Told with the humorous style characteristic of Patterson when he's in preteen mode, the novel fits right in with I Funny, Middle School, and the like. Adding to the book's charm [are] comic-filled pages that help further illustrate Kenny's inner workings as well as present just plain fun superhero stories. A smart and kind story topped with just the right amount of social justice."Kirkus Reviews"Packed with fast-paced tween-speak, Public School Superhero will entertain and enlighten.... Readers will also enjoy the multiple pages of funny, comic book-style illustrations packed with superhero stunts and preteen angst.... Definitely buy this one."School Library Journal "A novel aimed as much at parents as at their middle-school children.... With admirers of all ages, don't be surprised if everyone wants to get their hands on [Patterson's] latest."BooklistJames Patterson holds the Guinness World Record for the most #1 New York Times bestsellers, including Middle School and I Funny. He is a tireless champion of the power of books and reading, exemplified by his new children's book imprint, JIMMY Patterson, whose mission is simple: We want every kid who finishes a JIMMY Book to say: "PLEASE GIVE ME ANOTHER BOOK." He has donated more than one million books to students and soldiers and has over four hundred Teacher Education Scholarships at twenty-four colleges and universities. He has also donated millions to independent bookstores and school libraries. James will be investing his proceeds from the sales of JIMMY Patterson Books in pro-reading initiatives.; Title: Public School Superhero | [

11,053 | 2 | PreS-KThese two like-minded titles add to the author's previous books about families with simple sentences and minimalistic illustrations. The books contrast sisters or brothers with wildly colorful (and sometimes improbable) faces, bodies, or hair that present an assortment of siblingseach a "special part of your family." Simplicity of illustrations reveals not only diversity of appearance and personality, but the variety of personalities and preferences within all families and among sisters or brothers, even those who do not live at home. Boldly lined, painted images of each book's pages feature identifiable mirrorlike pages of the other book that repeat similar text and ideas, all presented in the author's iconic child-friendly fonts. For example, "Some sisters (brothers) like to hang out with you. Some sisters (brothers) like to spend time alone." Both titles encourage social and emotional discussions about self and place in the family, allowing the very young to visualize members of their own family. VERDICT These beginning books for listening and learning are recommended general purchase.Mary Elam, Learning Media Services, Plano ISD, TXPraise for Todd Parr:"It's rare that a children's author appeals to adults, but when it happens, it's usually magic; Dr.Seuss, Shel Silverstein...

11,061 | 0 | Gr 38Those who claim to hate poetry will enjoy this riotous compilation just as much as those who love the form. Fans of Ogden Nash, Shel Silverstein, and Jack Prelutsky will rejoice in finding another member of their gang. Wordplay abounds: "If ever I find myself holding a gecko/I'll lecko." Typography is the source of gags, as when the letters "d" and "b" face off for a duel, turn to shoot each other, and fall over dead, having become the letters "p" and "q." And the title poem will have kids howling with laughter as the narrator repeatedly misses the most obvious rhymes: "I'm just no good at rhyming./It makes me feel so bad./I'm just no good at rhyming,/And that's why I am blue." Smith matches Harris's wit with his own zaniness, merging line drawings with printing techniques that add a variety of texture and mood. The interplay between text and illustration provides further delights. VERDICT A surefire winner for reading aloud or for snickering with under the covers.

11,084 | 2 | Gr 4-6-As the 15th anniversary of September 11, 2001, approaches, it brings with it a time for profound reflection. Rhodes's new novel offers a way to discuss the events of 9/11 with children too young to remember this pivotal event. This well-paced novel follows Deja, a fifth grader whose father suffers from a chronic cough, depression, and anxiety, all of which prevent him from maintaining a job. As a result, Deja and her family have lost their apartment and are now living in a group home in Brooklyn. When Deja begins at a new school, she makes friends with a Muslim girl and a boy whose father is an Iraq War veteran. When their teacher begins a lesson about September 11, the three friends learn how the day's events relate to them as individuals and as part of their wider community. This is a welcome contribution to children's literature, on a topic not many authors have broached for this age group, and it will function well as a teaching tool. It reads easily and offers educators the opportunity to not only address the events of September 11 from a historical perspective but also from a social one. Themes include community, diversity, and socioeconomic disparities. VERDICT Recommended as an addition to middle grade collections and as a classroom group reading title to help facilitate classroom conversations about 9/11.-Pilar Okeson, Washington DC Public Library(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.Praise for Towers Falling:"History made personal--and what a person! Deja's voice is real and memorable, her compelling story one of hope unmarred by sentimentality." Linda Sue Park, Newbery Medalist and New York Times bestselling author"This tender retelling of tragedy is a solid vessel to help young readers understand the gravity of 9/11 and how it touches all Americans, no matter where we come from. "Kirkus Reviews"This is a welcome contribution to children's literature."School Library Journal"Rhodes approaches a complex, painful topic with insight and grace, providing context to an event distant to the book's audience."Publishers Weekly; Title: Towers Falling | [
