“Mostly, Happily Ever After” is the first installment in the “Little Big Deals” series—big deals that impact children. This book focuses on the most devastating challenge that children are frequently confronted with: divorce! The Royal Family is a typically perfect fairytale family: King, Queen, Prince, and Princess. Suddenly, a simple disagreement causes their wonderful lives to shudder. Before they know it, massive fractures develop within the family that eventually shatter it, leaving each of them with troubling questions and deep emotional scars. “Mostly, Happily Ever After” examines how children can become engulfed in the conflicts and hurtful arguments that emerge when a family is at war with itself. It discusses why the feuding can develop enormous momentum, far beyond anything ever intended, and how the key reasons for the dispute become irrelevant and how maintaining the conflict by needing to be “right” and “heard” transpire to be the central issues. “Mostly, Happily Ever After” is also a resource for teachers and parents to help children express the emotions associated with the breakdown of their family.
A charming and delicious holiday tale of festive friendships and first crushes from the author of Cake Pop Crush and You’re Bacon Me Crazy.
‘Tis the season . . . for heartbreak?
Emery Mason is not a fan of the holidays. She’s so over the tinsel, the shopping, and all the other trappings of the season. Unfortunately, this year, Em is forced to work—as an elf!—at her parents’ Santa Photo Booth at the mall. There, Em meets Alejandro Perez, who works at the hot cocoa shop next door and is always full of holiday spirit. Alex is cute, but he’s nothing like Em’s real crush—the brooding and artistic Sawyer Kade.
But the more time Em spends with Alex, the more she realizes that she may not be the Grinch she always thought she was. Soon, a blizzard, a Secret Santa surprise, and a family disagreement throw Em’s world upside down. Can Em embrace the magic of the holidays and find the perfect boy to kiss under the mistletoe?

An hilarious series from Barry Hutchison, perfect for fans of Beast Quest, and brilliantly illustrated by Chris Mould.
This “humorous, fast-paced” middle-grade novel is “a remarkable story of a working-class family pulling together in the face of a serious illness” (School Library Journal). As befits a future President of the United States of America, eleven-year-old Atlanta resident Maggie Mayfield has decided to write a memoir of the past year of her life. And what a banner year it’s been! During this period she’s Student of the Month on a regular basis, an official shareholder of Coca-Cola stock, and defending Science Fair champion. Most importantly, though, this is the year Maggie has to pull up her bootstraps (the family motto) and finally learn why her cool-dude dad is in a wheelchair, no matter how scary that is . . . Author Megan Jean Sovern, herself the daughter of a dad with multiple sclerosis, writes with the funny grace and assured prose of a new literary star. A portion of the proceeds of the sale of this book will be donated to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. “Does for middle-grade fiction what John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars did for teen literature: Both portray coping with serious illness as one aspect of a complex character, not as the single issue that defines them.” —BookPage “Smart, sensitive, sad and funny.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review “Maggie is a firecracker character, one who sparkles with wit, cynicism, love and potential.” —Shelf Awareness
