  Before Neverland, there was Kensington Gardens—the place where Peter Pan first learned to fly. 
  In Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, J. M. Barrie introduces listeners to the origins of his most beloved creation. Here, Peter is not yet the boy who never grows up, but a baby who escapes from his home to live among the birds and fairies in the magical heart of London’s famed park. Beneath the whispering trees and beside the silver lake, he encounters wonder, mischief, and the bittersweet magic of eternal childhood. 
  Narrated with warmth and charm by Melissa-Marie Shriner, this timeless tale blends whimsy and melancholy in equal measure, offering a glimpse into the dreamlike world that would later become Peter Pan. 
  A perfect listen for children, families, and all who believe in fairies—or wish they still did.

  "A ­triumphant coming-of-age story about gender identity, strength, and friendship, 
  as well as the different ways that people ­discover who they are." 
  —School Library Journal, starred review 
   
  A moving middle-grade novel in verse, about a young trans boy dealing with the loss of his friend by writing to his favorite cryptid, Mothman 
   
  Halfway through sixth grade, Noah’s best friend and the only other trans boy in his school, Lewis, passed away in a car accident. Lewis was adventurous and curious, always bringing a new paranormal story to share with Noah. Together they daydreamed about cryptids and shared discovering their genders and names. After his death, lonely and yearning for someone who could understand him like Lewis once did, Noah starts writing letters to Mothman, wondering if he would understand how Noah feels and also looking for evidence of Mothman’s existence in the vast woods surrounding his small Poconos town. Noah becomes determined to make his science fair project about Mothman, despite his teachers and parents urging him to make a project about something “real.” 
   
  Meanwhile, as Noah tries to find Mothman, Noah also starts to make friends with a group of girls in his grade, Hanna, Molly, and Alice, with whom he’d been friendly, but never close to. Now, they welcome him, and he starts to open up to each of them, especially Hanna, who Noah has a crush on. But as strange things start to happen and Noah becomes sure of Mothman’s existence, his parents and teachers don’t believe him. Noah decides it’s up to him to risk everything, trek into the woods, and find Mothman himself.
