Is the arrival of a new baby brother as bad as all that? Yup! It’s bad enough to make a kid want to run away!

KYLE WENDELL and the Running-Away Day teaches that even the smallest gestures can be big and meaningful among family. It is a poignant and funny story in which the realization of what love really is comes little by little – and then with a bang.

A blind person needing guidance, a police officer seeking aid in apprehending criminals, a troubled veteran searching for a comforting companion – when there’s risk or a call for help it’s not only humans who give their support.

In The Adventures of Extraordinary K9s, tales of amazing animals engaged in wonderful feats come to life in vivid color and story-telling. Lending an ear, a tail, a wag, a smile – or a powerful sniffer – these dog pals remind us why they are our best friends. Seven stories told by Lizzie, whose own adventures with extraordinary K9s begin when a yellow Labrador named Charlee accompanies her teacher to school, provide an important understanding to children of how much these service animals enhance our lives. Through dutiful, heartwarming, and sometimes dangerous work, these K9s bring extraordinary, selfless love and companionship to the world.
