Good News, Bad NewsBy Jeff Mack

Good news, Rabbit and Mouse are going on a picnic. Bad news, it is starting to rain. Good news, Rabbit has an umbrella. Bad news, the stormy winds blow the umbrella (and Mouse!) into a tree.

So begins this clever story about two friends with very different dispositions. Using just four words, Jeff Mack has created a text with remarkable flair that is both funny and touching, and pairs perfectly with his energetic, and hilarious, illustrations.

Good news, this is a book kids will clamor to read again and again!

Jeff Mack is the author and illustrator of many books for young readers including Hush Little Polar Bear, Frog and Fly, and Clueless McGee. He lives carefree in Western Massachusetts where all the clouds have silver linings and everyone’s glass is half-full. Visit him online at www.jeffmack.com.

By Michael Hearst • Artwork, diagrams, and other visuals by Arjen Noordeman, Christie Wright, and Jelmer Noordeman

With humor and flair, Michael Hearst introduces the reader to a wealth of extraordinary life-forms. Which animal can be found at the top of Mount Everest, 10,000 feet under the sea, and in your backyard? Which animal poops cubes? Which animal can disguise itself as a giant crab?

Ivy and Bean No News Is Good NewsBook 8

By Annie Barrows • Illustrated by Sophie Blackall

The 8th book in the New York Times bestselling Ivy & Bean series is now available in paperback! Ivy and Bean need some money. Ten dollars, to be exact. Never mind what for. Okay, it’s for low-fat Belldeloon cheese in a special just-for-one serving size. Don’t ask why. But how are Ivy and Bean going to make ten dollars? Hey, maybe they should write a newspaper about Pancake Court and sell it! Great idea! And easy, too. All they have to do is nose around the neighborhood. Wow—it’s interest-ing what comes out when snoops start digging. It’s even more interesting when the neighbors read about it in the newspaper.

Ivy and Bean Make the RulesBook 9

By Annie Barrows • Illustrated by Sophie Blackall

Bean’s older sister, Nancy, is going to Girl Power 4-Ever Camp, where she will do Crafts and Music and First Aid and other secret things that Bean will never know about because girls have to be eleven to go to Girl Power 4-Ever Camp. Bean doesn’t care. She doesn’t want to go to camp. She wouldn’t go even if they begged her. So ha. So ha ha. So—wait a second! Bean and Ivy can make their own camp, their own better camp: Camp Flaming Arrow, where counselors Ivy and Bean will give a whole new meaning to Crafts, Music, First Aid, and hands-on learning!

When she was a kid, Annie Barrows never once went to camp. She never took any classes. She never played a sport. She wasn’t a Girl Scout. What a weirdo. She lives in Berkeley, California.

Sophie Blackall is an Austra-lian illustrator whose work has appeared in many newspapers and magazines, including the New York Times. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.

THE NEW YORK

TIMES BESTSELLING

SERIES

Two friends who never meant to like each other.

“ Defies expectations of what an early chapter book can be.”

—School Library Journal

Page 20: Chronicle Books Kids Fall 12

You will be outraged to learn that I, The Narrator of The Templeton Twins Have an Idea (which we

will call TTTHAI to make it easier to type, if not remember), have been bullied by the publisher into

providing a few introductory words to this, your copy of the aforementioned book. Like you, I hardly

ever use the word “aforementioned” in polite company, but I have no choice.

Please be assured that TTTHAI includes all of the elements essential for a middle-grade novel:

attractive twin protagonists (Abigail and John), who learn important life lessons (by solving cryp-

tic crossword puzzles and playing the drums, respectively); an appealing fatherly figure (the twins’

actual father, a professor no less); a recipe for meatloaf; etc. It goes without saying that there is a pair

of grown-up twin antagonists, a thrilling climax involving a one-man helicopter, a bossy nanny and,

of course, a dog.

Too good to be true? That is for others to say. But I invite you to join me in rejoicing over the fact

that there are no vampires in this, the aforementioned aforementioned book. Because it’s enough

already with the vampires. It but remains for us to conceal this fact from the children who will read

TTTHAI, confident in the knowledge that, by the time they realize the essential vampirelessness of

the text, they will have already enjoyed and loved and adored the entire book, and it will be too late.

The Templeton Twins Have an IdeaBook One

By Ellis Weiner • Illustrated by Jeremy Holmes

Suppose there were 12-year-old twins, a boy and girl named John and Abigail Templeton. Let’s say John was pragmatic and played the drums, and Abigail was theoretical and solved cryptic crosswords. Now suppose their father was a brilliant, if sometimes confused, inventor. And suppose that another set of twins—adults—named Dean D. Dean and Dan D. Dean, kidnapped the Templeton twins and their ridiculous dog in order to get their father to turn over one of his genius (sort of inventions. Yes, I said kidnapped. Wouldn’t it be fun to read about that? Oh please. It would so. Luckily for you, this is just the first in a series perfect for boys and girls who are smart, clever, and funny (just like the twins), and enjoy reading adventurous stories (who doesn’t?!).

Sylvia pushed into the wind,

Septembering the trees,

and hurdled over a railroad track

to a two-room shack

that never read “Browns Only.”

It did not have to.

Under the billion-acre sky,

she wondered, Did white girls

at 17th Street Elementary really

wear rainbow necklaces?

Aunt Sally took her there once.

Eyes sharp as icepicks pierced

the windowpanes as if seeing

a Mexican for the first time.

Every door was locked with a

How can anyone ever get in?

Sylvia asked. Someone must know

who has the right key . . .

Ganesha’s Sweet ToothBy Sanjay Patel and Emily Haynes • Illustrated by Sanjay Patel

The bold, bright colors of India leap right off the page in this fresh and funny picture book adaptation of how Ganesha came to write the epic poem of Hindu literature, the Mahabharata. Ganesha is just like any other kid, except that he has the head of an elephant and rides around on a magical mouse. And he loves sweets, especially the traditional dessert laddoo. But when Ganesha insists on biting into a super jumbo jawbreaker laddoo, his tusk breaks off ! Ganesha is terribly upset, but with the help of the wise poet Vyasa, he learns that what seems broken can actually be quite useful after all. With vibrant, graphic illustrations, expressive characters, and offbeat humor, this is a wonderfully inventive twist on a classic tale.

A Strange Place to Call HomeThe World’s Most Dangerous Habitats, and the Animals That Call Them Home

By Marilyn Singer • Illustrated by Ed Young

Under the desert’s cracked and barren skin, spadefoot toads are waiting for rain. In the endless black of the deepest caves, blind fish find their way. Even in the frozen hearts of glaciers, ice worms by the billion flourish. In this fascinating look at fourteen animals who defy the odds by thriving in Earth’s most dangerous places, renowned poet Marilyn Singer and celebrated artist Ed Young show that of all the miracles of life, it is life’s persistence that astounds the most.

Marilyn Singer is the author of more than 90 books for children and young adults, but she especially loves to write poetry. She lives with her husband and several pets in Brooklyn, New York, which is sometimes a strange place to call home, and in Washington, Connecticut.

Ed Young has illustrated more than 80 books for children He is the winner of the Caldecott Medal, in addition to many other awards. He lives with his family in New York.

The NutcrackerA Magic Theater Book

By Geraldine McCaughrean • Illustrated by Kristina Swarner

Open this scrumptious holiday edition of The Nutcracker and magically recreate the motion, color, and delight of the classic ballet. Paper engineer-ing wizardry allows characters to dance into life simply by turning the pages— with no tabs for the reader to pull (or break). From the twirling Sugar Plum Fairy and the evil Mouse King to the little girl Marie and her Nutcracker Prince, the cast of beloved characters creates a wondrous “theater” effect as each steps out of intricately die-cut panels. From the first dancing snowflake, beloved author Geraldine McCaughrean’s retelling sparkles with enchantment and drama, her words exquisitely matched by Kristina Swarner’s luminous, jewel-toned illustrations.

Geraldine McCaughrean has written more than 160 well-loved books and has received countless awards, including the ALA’s Michael L Printz Award and the Carnegie Medal. She lives in Berkshire, United Kingdom.

Kristina Swarner creates her exquisitely rendered illustra-tions by working in a mixture of linoleum print, watercolor, and colored pencil. She lives in Chicago, Illinois.

From elephants flapping in cool, misty spray to bears scratching away mud with the rough bark of a tree, animals get clean in all kinds of unique ways! This splish-splashy introduction to the wild world of animals and their bath-time habits will encourage young children to hop in the bath themselves and have some squeaky clean fun while they are at it! Vibrant and playful collages by award-winning author and artist Bob Barner paired with simple rhyming text will keep readers laughing all the way to the tub!

Animals like to get clean

just like YOU and ME!

When Bob Barner is not working on books, he likes to present his work to schools and libraries around the world. He lives in San Francisco with his wife, Cathie. Learn more at Bobbarner.com.

WALL DECAL TIPS AND TRICKS1. While these wall decals are very easy to peel and stick, it’s always helpful

to plan out your wall art before removing the decals from their liners.

Before applying the decals, ensure that your wall space is clean and dry.

Measure your space and compare it to the size of the decals. Use a pencil

to create light, erasable hash marks on your wall to indicate where you’d

like to place the decals.

2. Once you’re ready to place a decal, gently remove it from its liner in one

steady direction, starting from where the decal is the widest. To avoid

tears, take your time around curves or pointed edges, carefully pulling

the decal away from the liner.

3. Place the edge of the decal on the wall and slowly apply to the wall

in one steady motion, smoothing it out as you go.

4. To remove or reposition the decal, gently pull it away from the wall,

taking special care around corners, curves, and edges.

Proving that the power of imagination trumps all technology and sophisticated language, this book’s compelling interactivity makes it perfect to read (and play!) in the multilingual home or classroom.

Hervé Tullet has been an art director at various ad agencies, a magazine illustrator, and for the past 15 years, a creator of children’s books. He lives with his wife, sons, and daughter in Paris.
