They can stand in line (sort of), use indoor voices (perhaps), and are capable of sharing (rumor has it), so the Click Clack critters are ready for school…but is school ready for them? A charming addition to the award-winning Click, Clack series from the New York Times bestselling and Caldecott winning team who brought you Click, Clack, Moo and Click, Clack, Surprise!

Farmer Brown has been invited to be a guest at the elementary school’s Farm Day! The animals excitedly practice their best classroom behavior: standing quietly in line, using their inside voices, and learning how to share. But then they find out that farm animals aren’t actually allowed in school (who knew they were considered a health code violation?!). Rules are rules, so Farmer Brown goes to school solo—or so he thinks…for while our favorite barnyard bunch don’t get high marks in rules, they do excel in disguise.

When Mr. Hughes finds a fish all alone in the library and names her Library Fish, she knows she’s found her true home.

But one day, everything outside is covered in snow and no one comes to the library. Will Library Fish be brave enough to venture outside her fishbowl for the very first time and explore the library she calls home?

“In this picture book based on the space shuttle Endeavor…Meteor is one of the smallest mice, but the most hardworking…the values of being small, useful, solving problems, and working hard—as opposed to being big and strong—will inspire young readers.” —School Library Journal

“Inspired by this real-life mouse, Kelly’s first children’s book tells the story of Meteor, a lightly anthropomorphized rodent who turns his tininess into an advantage when an important key gets stuck in a crack between two monitors…textured images and vivid portraits that make it absolutely clear that space travel is a larger-than-life adventure.” —Publishers Weekly

A heartwarming picture book tale of the power of the small, from bestselling author and retired NASA astronaut Commander Mark Kelly.

Astronaut Mark Kelly flew with “mice-tronauts” on his first spaceflight aboard space shuttle Endeavour in 2001. Mousetronaut tells the story of a small mouse that wants nothing more than to travel to outer space. The little mouse works as hard as the bigger mice to show readiness for the mission . . . and is chosen for the flight! While in space, the astronauts are busy with their mission when disaster strikes—and only the smallest member of the crew can save the day. With lively illustrations by award-winning artist C. F. Payne, Mousetronaut is a charming tale of perseverance, courage, and the importance of the small!

First-day-of-school jitters have never been funnier or more reassuring than in this picture book by the New York Times bestselling author Jory John and critically acclaimed illustrator Liz Climo

It's almost the first day of school, and the animals are nervous. Sloth worries about getting there on time, snake can't seem to get his backpack fastened onto his body, and bunny is afraid she'll want to hop around instead of sitting still. When they all arrive at their classroom, though, they're in for a surprise: Somebody else is nervous too. It's their teacher, the armadillo! He has rolled in as a ball, and it takes him a while to relax and unfurl. But by the next day, the animals have all figured out how to help one another through their jitters. School isn't so scary after all.

Perfect for nervous/excited kids about to go to kindergarten (and their parents!). This engaging adaptation of “The Twelve Days of Christmas” convinces parents and children alike that there is no place cooler than a kindergarten classroom.

On the first day of kindergarten, there’s so much to do! From making new friends to jumping rope in gym to riding the bus to school, there are lots of exciting firsts to look forward to.

Even though saying good-bye to Mom and Dad is hard, when the school bus pulls up, it’s time to begin kindergarten fun.

A penguin has wings for a reason . . . doesn’t he? Having a best friend with his own airplane is one thing, but actually experiencing what it feels like to fly by himself? Here is one penguin who believes this is precisely what he needs to feel complete. Only . . . if flying by himself is so wonderful, then why does he feel so empty?

The original, best-selling "Rock" book keeps on rolling, now celebrating its 5th anniversary! 

This modern-day classic follows 14 lovable rocks (and one wise little ladybug) on a heartwarming and hilarious journey, universally loved by children, parents and teachers alike.
 
From zippy little pebbles to big strong boulders, the rock friends get together to play and roll around their favorite hill, only to find that one of their friends, Ricky, can't roll with them. Unlike all of the other rocks, who are all round, Ricky can't roll because he's flat on one side.

Determined not to leave their friend behind, the rocks set out to help Ricky roll - one way or another.

When the last knot was tied, and the work was all done,
the only step left was for Rick to have fun. 
They stood back and watched, feeling nervous and tense, 
as Rick breathed in deep, with increasing suspense. 

He moved slowly at first, testing out his new mold,
and then, for the first time...Ricky the rock rolled!
 
This sweet, imaginative picture book, written in verse, brings a fresh set of characters to life in a story that highlights perseverance and triumph in the face of adversity, and the power of true friendship, combining the spirit of The Giving Tree with the rhyme and rhythm of Dr. Seuss.

Targeted for children ages 3-11, this is the first of a series of books featuring the "You Rock Group" that kids are sure to cherish as they grow, and learn from through empowering, motivating and fun-to-read stories.

Ricky the Rock is back and starring in a brand new adventure! When Ricky's school teacher gives the class an assignment to write a story using rhymes, Ricky begins to panic - he doesn't know how to rhyme! How will he ever write a lyrical story? 

Ricky loves all of his classes in school. But when his Reading and Writing teacher assigns the class an assignment to write a story using words that rhyme, Ricky gets worried: 

Ricky felt lost - his head started to spin.
So he turned 'round to talk to his friend, Tess the Tin.
"Rhyming's confusing," Ricky said with a frown.
But Tess said, "Cheer up, and don't look so down.
You just need some practice - you'll figure it out!
You'll learn how to rhyme - I haven't a doubt."

As Ricky and Tess leave school for the day, Tess is determined to help her friend learn how to rhyme. Will Ricky figure it out? Will he be able to complete his school assignment? You'll never guess how this story ends!

This clever, hysterical picture book, written in verse (of course!), brings fan favorites Ricky the Rock and Tess the Tin, together in a story that is fun to read, with a powerful lesson about the importance of trying.

Combining the spirit of The Giving Tree with the rhyme and rhythm of Dr. Seuss, Ricky the Rock that Just Couldn't Rhyme is destined to be a favorite among children, teachers and parents alike.

Targeted for children ages 3-11, and grades K-3, this is the next book in the "You Rock Group" collection by Mr. Jay, author of Ricky, the Rock that Couldn't Roll, The Bear and the Fern, Patrick Picklebottom and the Penny Book, and many others.
