Here are some of the books releasing this week! Nothing on my radar this week for adults.
Books for Kids
Can Somebody Please Scratch My Back? – A little elephant is having a hard time finding someone to help him scratch an itchy spot on his back. The pictures I have seen look adorable. I am looking forward to seeing this in person.
The Secrets of Ninja School – A girl heads to ninja school to discover her secret skill. I can’t wait to read this one and find out what she discovers.
Books for Older Kids/Teens/Young Adults
Princess Before Dawn – Book 7 in the Wide-Awake Princess series. I have loved this series from book one. Terrific for fairy tale – and fractured fairy tale – fans!
Stuck in the Stone Age – Book one in the new Story Pirates Present series about a janitor and a scientist who team up when a lab accident sends them back in time. This looks fun! And it’s also a book about creative writing, which is a terrific bonus.
The Train of Lost Things – New from the author of the Princess Juniper series comes this story of a boy searching for a lost jacket that connects him to his dying father. This sounds like a beautiful, and tearful story.
Unicorn of Many Hats – Book 7 in the fabulous Phoebe and her Unicorn series. I will be reviewing this one here tomorrow, so come back and check out my review.
Worlds Apart – The 5th and final book in the Story Thieves series. Now that the series is wrapping up, I guess I can get all the books at once and binge read them until I am done. I can’t wait to dig into this series!
Dog Days of Summer – Volume 2 in the X-Files Origins graphic novel series for teens. These are the stories of young Mulder and Scully, before they were FBI agents, but when they were already searching for the truth.
Tyler Johnson Was Here – Marvin follows his twin brother, Tyler to a party. A shooting and police raid later, Tyler is missing. And then he is dead. And Marvin is left to sort out the pieces. This sounds like a perfect complement to The Hate U Give and Long Way Down and Dear Martin.
