One title is for young readers and the other is for middle grade, but both books share the importance of the cultural holiday that begins on December 26 and has been celebrated since 1966.

These three titles focus on intriguing, shocking, under-explored disappearances throughout history.

Elephants, mice, and dragons make their appearance in these fun and festive board books and picture books.

Graphic novels by and about Indigenous people are a growing and essential category. Share these during Native American Heritage Month and all year long.

The YA author shares how laughter through tears is a survival tactic employed by her protagonists—and Indigenous people—to get through difficult times.

These two titles explore the drama, the excitement, and the endless moving parts involved in the world of theater.

From a lushly-illustrated story of the wildflowers that inspired Emily Dickinson to vivid narratives of firefighters, researchers, and policy makers confronting climate change, these books show people engaging with the world as explorers, observers, and protectors.

These picture books that celebrate found families, friendship, and connection are great choices for holidays shelves.

The books that shine here, including the latest from Leslie Patricelli and Mo Willems, keep it simple, are all heart, and let babies be babies and preschoolers be preschoolers.
