2. New Releases (6): Girls Day!

Being the mom of an infant is tough! I'm not able to get to all the books I want to read, as quickly as I'd like to read them, but that doesn't mean you should miss out too. My New Releases feature fills you all in on some of the newest books to hit the market that I'm looking forward to reading sometime very soon. 

This week, the girls have it! 3 popular main characters in children's lit are on display in new books. If you have a 6-8 year old girl, this is the week to go shopping for her!

Junie B., First Grader: Turkeys We Have Loved and Eaten (and Other Thankful Stuff) by Barbara Park

Apparently, this is the first new book in the series in more than FIVE years! Who knew?! Junie has always been super popular at the library and the bookstore, so I'm sure this latest addition to the series will have her fans (new and old) very excited. Plus, it's about Thanksgiving festivities and that means the holidays are coming! Yay!



Judy Moody and the Bad Luck Charm by Megan McDonald


Judy is back for #11! This time, she's dealing with a good luck charm turned bad and she isn't quite sure what to do about it. I'm sure this latest book in the series will be as silly and charming as all of the others. I love the heart that Judy has and her realistic personality. Not all kids can be as good as those Penderwick girls! 




Ivy and Bean Make the Rules by Annie Barrows

Who doesn't love this adorable duo?? I love the balance of sweet and sassy in these friends and I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of trouble they can stir up in this new book. They're creating their own day camp, so it's bound to be interesting! 

And just a quick side note, October 13 marks the first International Ivy and Bean Day!! Since 2009, bookstores, libraries, and schools across the United States have been celebrating Ivy and Bean Day with events, activities, games, and giveaways. It's going international this year, with more than 500 events in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore! Check out the website for more info. 



Thanks to Chronicle, Random House, and Candlewick for the review copies!

Ivy & Bean: What's the Big Idea? (Book 7)
By Annie Barrows
Illustrated by Sophie Blackall
Chronicle, 2010
$14.99, ages 6-10, 128 pages

Best buddies Ivy and Bean may not know much about global warming, but they sure know about grownups -- and teaching them to relax might be just the trick to stopping a planetary melt-down.

In this 7th book in the beloved Ivy & Bean chapter-book series, the gals with big ideas and a knack for mischief take on cars, cow poop and other stuff mucking up the planet one group of parents at a time.

When Ivy and Bean's 2nd grade teacher, Ms. Aruba-Tate, asks the class to come up with ways to cool down Earth for the Emerson School science fair, the light bulbs start going on over Ivy and Bean's heads. Well, sort of.

Ivy and Bean are determined to come up with the best science project ever and become the most famous best friends in the world. Now, if they only had a couple of white lab coats and shimmering pink potions.

Hmmm. They might really have to think about this one. You know, sit there stock-still, with Ivy sucking cream cheese out of her hair and Bean squeezing her head between her hands until her eyeballs almost pop out.
