Do You Speak Fish?

DJ Corchin, illustrated by Dan Dougherty

pi c t u r e

A simple story that demonstrates how we all must put forth effort to better communicate to understand each other.

b o o ks

• .Simple story about a powerful and universal subject: There are approximately 6,500 languages spoken in the world, 430 different languages are spoken in the United States • Written by award-winning author and award-winning illustrator; previously published edition received the Nautilus Book Award for Best Children’s Picture Book • A useful educational tool for special education classrooms and classrooms with ESL students

When a child meets a fish and says hello, the fish does not respond. The child is shocked. What a rude fish! But what the child must understand is that it’s not up to the fish to speak the child’s language. And if the child wants to communicate, he’ll have to take the time to learn how to speak Fish.

“During storybook yoga today, we read this book and talked about communication and understanding...There is SO MUCH WISDOM in this book!

This message is critical now more than ever.”

A Thousand No’s

b o o ks

Even great ideas sometimes get a NO—but that NO can actually help great ideas become the best ideas!

p i c t u r e

DJ Corchin, illustrated by Dan Dougherty

• Simple yet powerful story that promotes growth mindset, grit, and perseverance: Themes connect to the Passion Point of Preparing Kids for Success • Illustrates an entrepreneurial mindset and how ideas evolve—a great gift for creative and enterprising kids and adults • The whimsical illustrations help bring to life the emotions of the character as the "NO's" pile up and influence her idea

There was a little girl who had a great idea. She had the most amazing, superb, best idea ever!

NO? Wait, what do you mean NO? NO again?

What is she supposed to do with all these NO’s?

NO after NO after NO comes the little girl’s way, twisting and squishing her idea. But by persevering, collaborating, and using a little imagination, all those NO’s become the building blocks for the biggest YES ever!

A Thousand NO’s is a story about perseverance and innovation. It shows what amazing things can happen if we work with others and don’t give up, and it teaches kids not to let expectations of August 2020 how things should be get in the way of what could be.

Except Antarctica Todd Sturgell

p i c t u r e

b o o ks

This meta-leaning and hilarious picture book about animal habitats on every continent will have kids (and adults!) laughing every time they pick it up • .The meta concept and comical dialogue between the narrator and animals make this a book kids will come back to over and over again • Evergreen topic of animals combined with humor that works well in this space • Includes educational backm atter about animals (in and out of Antarctica!)

.Turtles are found on every continent EXCEPT Antarctica.

But not for long!

When a David Attenborough-esque narrator explains that turtles are found everywhere except Antarctica, one determined turtle sets out to prove him wrong. After recruiting other non-Antarctic animals along the way—much to the narrator’s dismay—the turtle and his adventurous friends travel through fields, forests, and cross an entire ocean to reach their goal. But what exactly do they do once they get there?

Perfect for anyone who’s ever gone a little too far to prove a point, this nature documentary gone wrong is a gleefully funny lesson in determination and the beauty of having a contingency plan July 2021

TODD STURGELL is an illustrator, author, and freelance art and creative director. In his previous career as a corporate advertising art director, he worked with national brands, including Home Depot, Hyundai, Red Lobster, and 7-Eleven. He lives, hikes, draws, and watches nature documentaries in the North Carolina mountains with his wife, daughters, and dog Max (named for a certain famous picture book character). He has not yet been to Antarctica.

It Will Be OK

A story of empathy, kindness, and friendship Lisa Katzenberger pi c t u r e

Sometimes the best thing we can do for our loved ones is listen and be present as long as they need us.

Giraffe and Zebra meet every day under their favorite tree to walk to the watering hole. But today, Giraffe isn’t there! Where could he be? Zebra spots him hiding in the tree; Giraffe has seen a spider and is scared silly. Zebra patiently talks to Giraffe and does the very best thing: supports Giraffe for as long as Giraffe needs it.

A sweet story about the power of friendship, kindness, and empathy that helps us face our fears no matter how silly they may seem.

Too Crowded Lena Podesta

Have you ever needed just a little more space?

p i c t u r e

• Strong market demand: This book satisfies reader demand for picture books starring lovable, funny characters with subtle underlying messages for children, like the Pigeon series, the Pout-Pout Fish series, and more.

• Seasoned illustrator with writing debut: The author has worked as a commercial animator on television shows for more than a decade, and this is her debut as an author-illustrator • Series to grow: Strong potential for a series, board book, and/or merchandising following Gil the Goldfish

Gil the Goldfish lives in a fishbowl with 138 pebbles—he counts them every day—and a castle. It feels TOO CROWDED! When Gil leaves his bowl in search of open spaces, he finds a world full of many interesting…and loud…and possibly dangerous…creatures. It turns out that life outside the bowl might not be right for a fish. Thank goodness for Turtle, a citizen of the not-so-great outdoors who comes to Gil’s rescue! Will Gil make peace with his home sweet home, and maybe even find room for a friend in the process?

LENA PODESTA lives in Portland at the base of a volcano with her husband and two children. She’s been an illustrator and animator for more than fifteen years, and her clients have included The Simpsons, 20th Century Fox, Highlights Magazine, Universal Studios, Hallmark, Ernst & Young, Proctor & Gamble, and more.

The Girl Explorers

How a Group of Globetrotting Women Trekked, Flew, and Fought Their Way Around the World

Jayne Zanglein

The untold stories of women who broke the rules, trekked the globe, and changed the world!

• Great hook: Women and STEM (+ art!)—the women broke records, discovered new species, and widened understanding of different cultures • Breaking new ground: The story of the four women (and the wider SWG organization) has never been told before • Great research: Author has direct contact with the families and personal photographs; additionally, she has retraced the footsteps of some of the international travel

“Don’t take women when you go exploring!”

In 1932, Roy Chapman Andrews, the president of the Explorers Club, told hundreds of female students at Barnard College that women and exploration could never mix. He obviously didn’t know a thing about either...

The Girl Explorers is the inspirational and untold story of the women who broke apart the stuffy men’s club and founded the Society of Woman Geographers (SWG), and how some key members—including Blair Niles, Amelia Earhart, Gloria Hollister, and Anna Heyward Taylor—paved the way for women scientists by scaling mountains, exploring the seas, flying across the Atlantic, and recording the world through film, sculpture, and art.

JAYNE ZANGLEIN is a labor lawyer and law professor, and the author of four law books. She lives in North Carolina.

Rage Yoga Unleash Your Inner Badass

Lindsay Istace

An irreverent and hilarious guide to becoming zen as f*ck from the creator of Rage Yoga • .Edgy, authentic self-help is strong (in many subcategories), and pairing it with yoga is the perfect way to target a wide range of audiences, from yogis to people looking for empowering stress management, anger control, and fun exercise outlets • An expert author who founded the Rage Yoga practice and has been featured in Cosmo, Shape, Self, Bustle, GQ, and much more; content easily portable in bite-size pieces • Alternative exercise practices are a huge trend (goat yoga, morning raves, hula fit, etc.), and Rage Yoga is a way to pull in that audience

From the creator of the international viral sensation Rage Yoga comes a book that will empower readers to crush their bullsh*t, unleash their innermost Badass Self, and become zen as f*ck. Rage Yoga is taught by certified instructors and done while blasting heavy music, loudly cursing like a sailor, and extending middle fingers (a.k.a. “fist unicorns”) high into the sky.

Rage Yoga embraces the misfits of the yoga world, pairs well with a cold beer, and is often done in alternative venues such as pubs and breweries. This book will explore how and why Rage Yoga came to be and how to create a regular practice through breath work, positional exercises, and mindfulness, along with two seven-day programs.
