  When three fortune-hunters break open an ancient Martian vault, they expect treasure — not devices capable of leveling armies, freezing deserts, or bending reality itself. But their uneasy alliance dissolves fast as greed, paranoia, and raw ambition transform the red planet into a battleground of human betrayal. 
  “The Last Weapon” showcases Robert Sheckley at his sharpest, blending dark humor with razor-edged tension as he unspools a tale of power, corruption, and the catastrophic relics of a lost world. Each discovery raises the stakes until the final, unforgettable confrontation — one that proves the Martians saved their most astonishing creation for last. 
  Robert Sheckley (1928–2005) stands as one of science fiction’s most inventive and mischievous voices. Known for his wit, philosophical playfulness, and talent for blending satire with suspense, Sheckley wrote hundreds of stories that continue to influence modern sci-fi. His work appeared in Galaxy, IF, Playboy, and many other top magazines, earning him a reputation as a writer who could twist a simple premise into something brilliantly unexpected. In “The Last Weapon,” those skills are on full display.

  Fox—the beloved and popular trickster character featured in the Geisel Award–winning books Fox Has a Problem, Fox at Night, and Fox the Tiger—is on the move! But Fox knows that life is about the journey, not the destination, and if his untraditional transportation methods get him in a bit of trouble, he can always try again tomorrow. Kirkus Reviews calls Corey R. Tabor “a master of the early reader.” 
  Where is Fox going? But more importantly, how is he getting there? 
  A train? A bus? A surfboard? A waterfall? Fox’s travel methods may be a bit unusual, but we would expect nothing less from our terrific, trickster friend. 
  Wry, repetitive text with carefully chosen language and a limited vocabulary allows for an accessible read while charming illustrations provide context and comedy in Corey R. Tabor’s award-winning Fox series, making it a perfect choice for emerging readers and their caretakers. The Fox series, which is comprised of both picture books and beginning readers, has received three Geisel Awards, one Geisel Honor, multiple starred reviews, and features appealing plots, lovable characters, and age-appropriate themes that encourage children to continue their reading journey.

  We Are A Circus is the charming, autobiographical tale of a rainbow family, riding around Thessaloniki on a bike. They are poor and living precariously, but they are happy together and have fun in the sun and in the rain (though sometimes they get a bit cold).
  As the book progresses, we follow them through the seasons, playing and cycling and fending off the weather. When their landlord turfs them out of their house, things get more serious as they have to find a new home, fast.
  Nasta has created an exuberant, compassionate story, which is beautifully complemented by Rosie Fencott's energetic artwork.
  **Longlisted for the 2024 Klaus Flugge Illustration Award **
  We are a circus.
  Fortunately not like the ones that train animals.
  (Fortunately means "happiness")
  We are trained by animals! They even make us jump through flaming hoops!
  
  I am kidding. Animals would never do this.
