  Praised by R.J. Palacio as “wondrous”—this moving memoir follows a teenage boy with TC syndrome and his exceptional family from diagnosis at birth to now. “This touching memoir is a must-read for anyone who wants to know more about the real-world experiences of a child with craniofacial differences and his extraordinary family. It’s also more than that. It’s a story about the love between a mother and a son, a child and his family, and the breadth of friends, helpers, and doctors that step in when the unexpected happens. It’s a story that will make young readers reevaluate the word ‘normal’—not only as it applies to others, but to themselves. Any book that can do that is pretty wondrous, as far as I’m concerned.” —R.J. Palacio, author of Wonder In this uplifting and humorous memoir brimming with black-and-white comic illustrations, Nathaniel and his mother, Magda, tell the story of his growing up with the same craniofacial syndrome as the boy from Wonder—from facing sixty-seven surgeries before the age of fifteen, to making friends, moving across the country, and persevering through hardships. How they tackle extraordinary circumstances with love and resilience is a true testament to Nathaniel and Magda’s extraordinary family, and to families everywhere who quietly but courageously persist.

  Editorial Review Rating: 5 Stars  
  Katz Kan!!! is a fun and educational story that explores new realms and teaches young readers about environmental protection from a fresh perspective. The story also has themes of family, love, and joy. My favourite part of this tale was the characters. Pete Katz and his family are just like any other modern family. They have hardworking parents and children who love the latest music and trending video games. There is also a message about missing home and the heartbreak of losing everything and starting afresh. The characters’ emotions were conveyed beautifully, and readers will resonate with their struggles. Overall, Katz Kan!!! is a well-rounded story that will spark children's imaginations while imparting valuable life lessons. I enjoyed reading this book and highly recommend adding it to your children’s bookshelves.

  "The Loon Ball" was born as a poem and remains so in this newly minted Book Ten of Kelly Anne Manuel's Childhood Classics. In this story the Child is cordially invited to attend the most amazing, colorful, and inclusive event known as the Loon Ball. The Loon Ball is a magical adventure into a world where anything that they can dream of is possible."The Loon Ball" engages with the Child immediately with an invitation to an imaginary fantastical event. The narrator guides the Child through all the elements that the Loon Ball encompasses. These elements are colorful, joyful, and playful ideas that come to life for the Child to experience. There is an exciting energy that the story brings right to the Child, wherever they are in their own life journey.The simple words take on new meaning as the illustrations pair perfectly with their presentation. The story is supported with lovely animals that are both real and imaginary. The combination of both is important to the development of the magical theme woven throughout. The Child will be ignited with dreamy possibilities as all manner of images leap off the pages.Children are naturally drawn to stories of journey and adventure. This story provides both. The depth of the message is measured by where the Child is on their own growth journey so it is always age appropriate. The author hopes it will serve as a launch pad for discussions about invitations, events, and relying on oneself for a barometer of inclusiveness.It is in Early Childhood that futures are being constructed. "The Loon Ball" is a tool in a Caregiver's toolbox to assist with that healthy formation. The idea that there are unlimited ways to celebrate events is meant to inspire curiosity. Children's Literature is a wonderful place to allow imagination to fly to untethered heights. The Child who reads this book will be entertained and encouraged to begin planning the fantastical elements that they would include in their own Loon Ball.

  In the rolling Devon countryside near Appledore, six-year-old Chloe Brown lives with her parents John and Eliza on their dairy farm with Jersey cows. John tends the gentle herd while Eliza creates a warm, loving home filled with the memory of Chloe's great grandmother. 
  On a rainy day, curious Chloe ventures into the attic and discovers her great grandmother's old toy chest. Inside, she finds a magical collection of Victorian toys: Tommy, a brave tin soldier drummer in a red uniform with his entire battalion of fellow soldiers, Arabella the graceful porcelain ballerina, Sooty the cheerful chimney sweep, Sir Gallop the wooden rocking horse, Patches the raggedy bear, Captain Whiskers the one-eyed stuffed cat, Buttons the jack-in-the-box clown, and Rosie the elegant porcelain doll. 
  As Chloe touches Tommy with loving care, the toys miraculously come to life, awakening from decades of slumber. Tommy explains they belonged to her great grandmother and have waited patiently for another child to love them. Overjoyed at their freedom, the toys eagerly befriend Chloe. 
  Together, they embark on wonderful adventures throughout the farmhouse and farm. Tommy leads his soldier battalion in marching parades while beating his drum, Arabella performs beautiful ballet dances, and Sooty cheerfully sweeps and cleans. They play hide-and-seek, have tea parties, build castles, and explore the countryside, even meeting the friendly Jersey cows. 
  The toys teach Chloe valuable lessons: Tommy shows courage and leadership, the soldiers demonstrate teamwork, Arabella embodies grace, Sooty proves work can be joyful, and each friend contributes their unique gifts. They hold a grand celebration party, cementing their friendship. 
  As Chloe grows up and eventually has children of her own, she brings them to meet the magical toys. The cycle continues as Tommy and his friends welcome new generations of children, proving that love and friendship transcend time.
