  America’s Greatest Democratic...

  Woodrow Wilson’s presidency was monumentally consequential, but it is not without its critics, nor is the man himself. Even as Wilson has come to be viewed as one of America’s greatest presidents, perception of Wilson and his administration as racist have also taken hold. Despite being one of the early 20th century’s most forceful proponents of a globalized foreign policy, Wilson’s personal views and comments were ardently anti-immigration, and Wilson’s administration entrenched and expanded segregation in the federal government. 
  	For over a decade, President Roosevelt threw everything he had at the Great Depression, and then threw everything the country had at the Axis powers during World War II. Ultimately, he succumbed to illness in the middle of his fourth term, just before the Allies won the war. The new president, Harry Truman, had to usher America through victory in Europe in his first month and decide to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki a few months later, but the end of World War II produced only the first of many consequential decisions Truman would face during his nearly 8 years in office. As president, Truman would lay the groundwork for the next 50 years of American foreign policy, as the architect of Cold War containment, the man who signed off on the Marshall Plan, and the commander-in-chief during much of the Korean War. He would also be the president who finally integrated the military, a crucial step on the way to full civil rights for the country’s minorities.  
  Had Lyndon Johnson’s presidency included just his domestic agenda, he would have unquestionably been one of America’s greatest presidents. Unfortunately, as he was engineering a new social contract at home, he was ramping up American military participation in a tiny country thousands of miles away in Southeast Asia. For a man who accomplished so much at home, it’s ironic and tragic that his presidency and legacy were permanently marred by Vietnam.

  Narrated by David McCormack, the voice of Bandit Heeler (Bluey's dad) in the hit kids' cartoon show BLUEY! 
  A timely story in the world of "Penny Pangolin and Friends" addressing screen-time balance, encouraging children to unplug and engage with the world around them. 
  When Penny receives a hand-me-down tablet, she's thrilled! With it, she can message friends, share photos, and video-call pals from other villages. But before long, Penny finds herself using it more and more...until she starts missing conversations, meals, and even schoolwork. Soon, Penny realizes that too much screentime is pulling her away from the things that really matter—things like nature, friendship, and family moments you can't get through a screen. 
  Recommended for children ages 3-8, this story offers a gentle wake-up call—not just for kids, but for grown-ups too. It encourages mindful conversations about healthy screen habits and reminds families to unplug and be present with each other. The book also celebrates the wonder of wildlife, spotlighting rare Eastern species like the golden-winged laughingthrush and the critically endangered pangolin. 
  A bonus section at the back includes fun pangolin facts and an animal seek-and-find, inviting listeners to find animals throughout the illustrated pages. Kids will be enthralled by Penny's adventures. With heart, humor, and a timely message, Penny Pangolin and the Tablet Turmoil inspires families to reconnect with the world...and each other! Have a pango-perfect day!

  Not a single animal in the forest wanted to meet the Tiger. Let alone meet him, not even to hear his name. He was an evil beast who did not hesitate to prey on his fellow forest dwellers. Still fresh in the memory, how the Evil One mercilessly preyed on a mother goat who had just given birth. Unmitigated, the baby goat that had just been born and had not been able to bleat perfectly was also devoured. 
  Since then, the forest-dwelling animals have agreed to protect each other from the evil Tiger. Anyone who sees the Tiger must tell the others. Don't let the incident that happened to the mother and goat kid yesterday happen again. 
  As a result of this agreement, the tiger had not caught a single prey for days. He's been going back and forth, sneaking around without making a sound, and covering himself in mud and leaves to stink. And the adventure of the Kanchil begins.

  Winnie and her mom have been “two girls against the world” for longer than Winnie can remember. But now Mom is moving Winnie away from her beloved Denver, away from her two best friends. 
   
  In Rock Springs, Wyoming, Winnie will have to make new friends (hard), go to a school where the kids tease her (unbearable), and get used to living with her stepfather-to-be and his annoying son (impossible). Winnie is determined to find a way back to Denver and her old life. But how? If only the magic in the stories that Winnie adores were true. … 
   
  Then one night, a mysterious bird leads Winnie to a strangely glowing oak tree, and there, in its branches is a nest of golden eggs that are not eggs at all but wishes, wishes that are soon coming true in unexpected ways. Here is real magic, if only Winnie can figure out how to make a wish that will fix her life without ruining everything. 
   
  “With immersive prose and a pinch of real magic, Amanda Rawson Hill spins a fairy tale about anxiety, anger, and acceptance that will linger with a reader ever after.”—Cindy Baldwin, author of Where the Watermelons Grow
