It's Monday January 5th

Picture Books
Too much pink & blue - but a good message about including boys and girls together in fun and games.
Very cute!
Lovely story about connecting to nature and family.
Gaiman - beautiful storytelling.
Interesting, but abrupt ending.
My baby niece picked this one out.
Sweet short tale about really seeing those around us.
Comics
Intriguing new series, though the beginning was quite puzzling. Young adult (but seems okay upper middle grade so far)
The Stolen Moon - out January 27th

I think book two is better than the first book (which doesn't happen very often). The story is exciting and quick paced.
Excellent science fiction for middle grade readers who like action packed adventure. We have a little more action for the girl characters in this one... but I'd still like to see that increase in book three.
I interviewed Rachel Searles when book one came out, and gave my thoughts on that book ...
