Little Brother sees monsters everywhere, so he'd rather stay safely inside and read all about them in his books. Big Sister believes monsters are nothing but phony baloney make-believe and drags Little Brother on a hair-raising adventure to prove it. In a hilarious echo of common sibling squabbles that both older and younger siblings will appreciate, Little Brother has soon had ENOUGH of Big Sister trying to make him just like her. When Big Sister leads them into big trouble, it's time for Little Brother to show that he has what it takes to save the day. --Publisher

Somerville, MA: Candlewick Press, 2021. Picture Book. 

Ergo wakes up and sets off to explore the world. The first things she discovers are her toes. Wiggle, wiggle. Then she finds her wings. Flap, flap. Then her beak. And her legs. She has discovered everything! I am the world and the world is me, she thinks. Until she considers the wall around her. Is that part of her, too? And is that noise from beyond the wall . . . something else? At once humorous and inspirational, this lighthearted foray by Alexis Deacon and Viviane Schwarz is for dreamers and philosophers, the foolish and the enlightened--a picture book experience told with simplicity and style. --Editor

They wondered what this could possibly mean. As Prunella grew her parents discovered that her preference was to nurture plants that were spiny, carnivorous, fungal, and poisonous. They didn't understand her plant choices but they encouraged her to nurture what she loved. They understood that her strong roots in gardening would eventually blossom when she was ready.
