Sven may be a little Viking, but he has the loudest cry, the fiercest set of teeth, and unparalleled pillaging power. And everyone knows he's the best storyteller around. Sven's size doesn't hold him back one bit. In fact, he rather likes being the littlest Viking. But when an even littler Viking shows up -- a tiny warrior princess -- Sven's pluck is put to the test. Is this longship big enough for both of them? --Publisher

Elise was frightened―of spiders, people, even trees. So she never went out, night or day.
One day a strange thing flies in through the window and lands at her feet. And then there comes a knock at the door. Elise has a visitor who will change everything.
The Visitor is a story about friendship and shyness that plays out in a mini theatre, as a child unwittingly brings light and color―literally―into a lonely person's life.
The unique artwork has a doll's house appeal. Damm creates a diorama from cardboard and photographs the scenes, giving the illustrations a special luminosity and depth. A New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book! --Publisher

Abrams Appleseed, 2015. Picture Book.
A bunch of friendly vegetables wear colorful underwear of all varieties--big, small, clean, dirty, serious, and funny--demonstrating for young ones the silliness and necessity of this item of clothing. The unexpectedness of vegetables in their unmentionables is enough to draw giggles, but the pride with which the "big kid" attire is flaunted in front of the baby carrots in diapers will tickle readers of all ages. With rhyming text that begs to be chanted aloud and art that looks good enough to eat, this vibrant story will encourage preschoolers to celebrate having left those diapers behind! --Publisher

This is a gorgeously simple picture book for very young children, and once you finish the rhythmic, rhyming text, all you’ll want to do is go back to the beginning . . . and read it again! The luminous watercolor illustrations of these roly-poly little ones from a variety of backgrounds are adorable, quirky, and true to life, right down to the wrinkles, dimples, and pudges in their completely squishable arms, legs, and tummies. --Publisher
