Honeybee - The Busy Life of Apis...

Candace Fleming

A tiny honeybee emerges through the wax cap of her cell. Driven to protect and take care of her hive, she cleans the nursery and feeds the larvae and the queen. But is she strong enough to fly? Not yet! Apis builds wax comb to store honey and transfers pollen from other bees into the storage. She defends the hive from invaders. And finally, she begins her new life as an adventurer. The confining walls of the hive fall away as Apis takes to the air, finally free, into a clear blue sky full of promise—and the wings of dozens of honeybees, heading out in search of nectar to bring back to the hive. This poetic tribute to the hardworking honeybee describes its life cycle accessibly and beautifully.

Otherwise Known as Judy the...

Selina Alko

Beloved and trailblazing author Judy Blume comes to life in this poetic picture book about her childhood. Judy Blume is known for fearlessly discussing topics that were once considered taboo. As a young girl, Judy was not encouraged to share her feelings, so instead she invented stories as a way to understand the world around her. Growing up Jewish, during and in the aftermath of WWII, dramatically shaped Judy’s childhood. Her younger years were full of fear. Judy processed her conflicted emotions by making up stories where she could control the conflict as she worked through challenging life scenarios. These stories became the subjects of the books she later published for children, tweens, teens, and adults including Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret, Freckle Juice, and the Fudge series. This inspiring collection of poems celebrates the childhood years of Judy Blume, one of the most beloved American writers of all time.

The Horror in the Hold - When...

Frank Belknap Long

A storm-tossed ship drifts through the Caribbean, its weary crew praying for calm seas—and for mercy from something far worse than the wind. When a pirate known as the Scourge of the Caribbees anchors off a seemingly peaceful island, his men uncover an ancient terror that does not belong to this world. What begins as a tale of gold and glory soon turns to nightmare in the dark recesses of the ship’s hold.
Originally published in Weird Tales in February 1932, “The Horror in the Hold” captures everything readers love about early pulp horror—salt-stung realism, eerie supernatural undertones, and the creeping dread that Frank Belknap Long perfected. Long’s gift for atmosphere makes you feel the creak of timbers, the weight of the sea, and the presence of something watching from below decks.
Long was a central figure in the early Weird Tales circle, a close friend and correspondent of H. P. Lovecraft, and a vital voice in shaping twentieth-century speculative fiction. Born in New York City in 1901, Frank Belknap Long began publishing in the 1920s and went on to write across genres—science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and poetry. His work often bridged the gap between cosmic horror and adventure storytelling, bringing imagination and emotion to both.
Over his long career, Long received the World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement and the Bram Stoker Award from the Horror Writers Association. He wrote for more than half a century, influencing generations of writers who followed. Whether depicting ancient evils or distant planets, Long’s stories remind us that the unknown—like the sea—always hides something beneath the surface.
