Our mission is to build the knowledge base for SEL and STEAM-inspired learning through content that promotes critical thinking, opens up conversations, and ultimately inspires young minds.
Our Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) titles explore concepts such as managing emotions, forming positive relationships, and teaching coping skills essential for mental health awareness. Whether it's early concepts, art education, or the sciences, we believe learning works best when it's fun and engaging. That’s why we are using principles inspired by Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) to guide readers of all ages to question the world around them.Amelia is the Schiffer Kids mascot. A Boston terrier puppy, Amelia is a curious girl eager to learn and try new things. Her playful pursuit of knowledge is our guiding principle as we create new titles for children of all ages. by Victoria Remmel, Illustrated by Eunjung June Kim; see page

The Lexile Framework® for Reading evaluates reading ability and text complexity on the same developmental scale. Unlike other measurement systems, the Lexile Framework determines reading ability based on actual assessments, rather than generalized age or grade levels. Recognized as the standard for matching readers with texts, tens of millions of students worldwide receive a Lexile® measure that helps them find targeted readings from the more than 100 million articles, books and websites that have been measured. Lexile measures connect learners of all ages with resources at the right level of challenge and monitors their progress toward state and national proficiency standards.

Jérôme Ruillier studied at the Decorative Arts in Strasbourg and now lives in France, where he divides his time between his two passions: drawing and the mountains. He is a prolific children’s book illustrator, has written and illustrated several instructive children’s books, and is the author of several graphic novels. Each of his titles is an invitation to listen and share to help us recognize the differences and denounce the exclusions.
Beautifully illustrated and simply told, this heartfelt story delivers a gentle message that is easily identifiable to children and presents an opportunity for discussion during story time reading. From the familiarity of being surrounded by one’s parents to the distress felt during their divorce, and then to the anger giving way to acceptance of the new situation, the emotional journey culminates with the realization that love persists and even blooms in the new extended family. This is a very difficult time for children, and this powerful message expresses no judgment so the child and the parent always feel good, even when the family environment changes.
This is me. The three of us were very happy. But one day my parents didn’t love each other like they once did. They didn’t livetogether anymore. But one day my parents didn’t love each other like they once did. They didn’t livetogether anymore. Then one day, Mommy introduced me to another daddy. I did not like him! This is Daddy. This is Mommy.

Identifiable activities such as spinning a pinwheel make the concept of mindful breathing accessible to toddlers Interactive spread with lift-the-flaps promotes counting from 1 to 5 while practicing breathing techniques while being still and quiet
From the author of Bipolar Bear, this board book aligns with the author’s message that things in the world can feel difficult and complicated, but with the right tools, we work and learn through situations and come out on the other end knowing everything will be okay. By taking a big breath in and letting a big breath out, toddlers will learn the basic principles of conscious breathing. These identifiable activities make the concept of mindful breathing accessible and easy to learn and practice. Huff and Puff provides parents and educators with a visual prompt to breathe with intention and to help create soothing times with their children, because when things get rough, we can all benefit from knowing to first huff and then puff.

1, 2, 3, Lili’s Counting
While he was rolling his ball to eat later in his burrow, he heard an elephant say, “Hey, small fry! Get out of the way or I’ll step on you.” The dung beetle, being very smart, moved aside. He knew he was no match for an elephant.
A short time later, the fly said to him, “You can’t let yourself be disrespected like that! You must stand up for yourself! If were you, would talk to the king of the animals. He will stop their insults!” The dung beetle thought about it, and then he said, “Maybe you are right . . .”
The King of Poop Géraldine Collet, illustrated by Hervé Le Goff
In the savanna the animals all live in harmony. A very small but hardworking dung beetle works diligently to carefully pick up and roll the droppings he finds to keep the ecosystem clean. The other animals make fun of him and the job he performs. The hurtful comments are intended to make him understand that he is an undesirable and not valued. His only advocate, the fly, defends him and urges him to rebel. But what a disappointment there, too, so the dung beetle is faced with a big decision that is destined to change the savanna itself! Join this little dung beetle as he leaves this corner of the savanna for a new place where his kindness and bravery are saluted, and find out what happens to the kingdom he leaves behind.

One of the primary skills of an interior designer is understanding color! Colors inspire moods and create an atmosphere Knowing how to select colors, values, tints, tones, and shades is key to creating the mood and inspiring the feelings you want in the spaces you design To understand color, you need to know a few terms and definitions: Hue is the word that describes pure color The three primary colors and three secondary colors on the color wheel are all hues The primary colors on the wheel are red, blue, and yellow Because they are not combinations of any other colors, they are the purest hues. Pure hues are often used for children’s spaces, fast-food restaurants, and places intended to be bright and cheerful In homes, offices, hotels, and medical facilities, hues are most often toned down to make spaces feel comfortable or soothing ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This is what the then fifth-grader hoped to convey in his poem about what it is like to live with autism.

Now for the first time, Benjamin’s iconic poem, “I Am Odd, I Am New,” comes to life in this lovingly illustrated picture book with a foreword written by the National Autism Association. So whether you know the poem, or it is new to you, discover how Benjamin’s honesty will reassure children of all ages that it’s okay to be different.

“Innovative, different, clever. These words describe the trio of books in this series. The idea behind these ’teaching guides’ is to connect nature and its elements to the feelings and experiences children face in their everyday lives.

“Klickstein has written an upbeat fictionalized story based on the real band The Kids of Widney High who, to date, have produced four albums. Well-placed black-and-white cartoonlike illustrations complement the text. The Kids of Widney High is a remarkable band, and Klickstein’s story provides readers an opportunity to learn about their music and world while simultaneously modeling for readers how to sensitively interact with individuals with disabilities. Recommended as a secondary purchase.”
