With Christmas falling on Tuesday this year, release dates for the next two weeks are a little wonky. But these books – all for kids – are releasing SOMETIME this week. Enjoy!
Books for Kids
Robot in Love – This looks adorable! Perfect for Valentine’s Day.
What if You Had T.Rex Teeth? And Other Dinosaur Parts – I have teacher friends who have done amazing things in the classroom with this series of books. If you have dinosaur fans in your life/classroom, check this one out!
Words to Love By – A picture book from the author of The Purpose Driven Life about the power of words to do good.
The Bad Guys in Superbad – Book 8 in this fun transitional chapter book series. This time the guys get super powers! Really weird super powers….
Dog Man: Brawl of the Wild – Book 6 in this fun graphic novel/early chapter book series for kids. This time Dog Man is sent to the pound for a crime he didn’t commit.
Mac B Kid Spy: The Impossible Crime – Book 2 in this fun, silly spy series for kids. You can see my review of book one here.
Treasure of the Gold Dragon – Book 12 in this BRANCHES series about dragons. Branches series usually don’t go on this long, but this one (and a few others – Owl Diaries, Eerie Elementary, Notebook of Doom) has really connected with readers. Maybe it’s the dragons!
Books for Older Kids
Blizzard Besties – A girl hoping for a fun week of skiing must band together with the other kids to find her brother who goes missing during a blizzard.
The Hive Queen – Book 12 in the Wings of Fire series, book 2 in the current story arc of the Lost Continent. I JUST finished the first book and it was terrific. I already have this one pre-ordered so I get it as soon as it releases. In this arc, there were three dragon tribes on the Lost Continent of Pantala, but after the Tree Wars, the Leafwings have been destroyed and the Hivewings have taken over. There is some cross over with the last story arc, but I think readers could start with book 11 (book 1 for this arc – The Lost Continent) without issue. It might even prompt them to go back to the Jade Mountain books (Books 6-10) to check out the characters they missed. You can read my review of The Lost Continent in the new year.
I Only Have Pies for You – In a family of bakers and pie makers extraordinaire, it’s hard to be the one person who can’t make a pie to save her life. But Dacey has a chance to help her family’s pie shop in her own way, even if it means having to partner with her nemesis, Chayton.
The Terrible Two’s Last Laugh – This is the last hurrah for epic pranksters Miles and Niles. This has been a fun series. Fans will not want to miss the final installment.
