Not Quite Snow White- Ashley Franklin, Ebony Glenn (Illustrator) Tameika is an African American girl who loves musicals and dreams of starring in one as a princess one day. But she fears that having brown skin and a plump frame might keep her from her dreams. |
Twenty Yawns- Jane Smiley, Lauren Castillo (Illustrator)
Featuring lyrical text and beautiful illustrations, this bedtime tale from Pulitzer Prize winner Jane Smiley and Caldecott Honor recipient Lauren Castillo evokes the splashy fun of the beach and the quietude of a moonlit night, with twenty yawns sprinkled in for children to discover and count. As her mom reads a bedtime story, Lucy drifts off. But later, she awakens in a dark, still room, and everything looks mysterious. How will she ever get back to sleep? |
