But when her class gets lost during a field trip to the Fiddle Dee Deep Forest, it’s up to Layla to step up and save the day.

  American Monsters: The History...

  People have always been fascinated with the hidden, the mysterious, and the unexplained. Every society has its tall tales and ghost stories, its odd legends, and heroes. Also, every society has its stories of strange beasts, dangerous or benign, that live in the twilight world between the everyday and the legendary. Through most of history, people have been closely tied to nature, hunting in forests and having an intimate knowledge of the animals in their regions. So-called “primitive” peoples were walking encyclopedias of the natural world, and yet most believed there were more creatures lurking in those woods than the ones they usually encountered. Even as the world becomes more connected, the belief in strange creatures continues as strong as ever. 
  	As a result, in one sense it shouldn’t be surprising that people across the United States have reported seeing weird cryptids, including giant birds, sea serpents, wolfmen, and a creature so bizarre it defies any rational classification. The only thing these monsters have in common is that all have been seen regularly and reported by seemingly sober, rational witnesses in the United States, even as conventional science suggests these monsters cannot exist and that all the sightings are mistakes, misidentifications, or hoaxes.  
  	In some cases, this may be true, but in others, it’s harder to accept. For example, one story about a 10-year-old boy being carried off by a giant bird was witnessed by several other people. Likewise, the Gloucester sea serpent seen by hundreds of people and carefully and scientifically investigated, and during one week in 1909, hundreds if not thousands of people reported seeing the Jersey Devil. Sightings of wolf-like creatures walking on two legs have been reported for more than 100 years.

  Coleopterology - The World of...

  Beetles, belonging to the order Coleoptera, represent the largest group of insects, with over 400,000 described species and many more likely undiscovered. They account for nearly 40% of all known insects and about 25% of all animal life forms. Their sheer diversity, adaptability, and widespread presence make them one of the most successful groups in the animal kingdom. From the glistening metallic hues of jewel beetles to the formidable jaws of stag beetles, their forms and functions are incredibly varied, contributing to their ecological significance. 
  One of the key features that distinguish beetles from other insects is their hardened forewings, known as elytra. These protective wing cases cover the delicate hindwings and the dorsal side of the abdomen, shielding them from damage and desiccation. When beetles fly, the elytra lift to allow the hindwings to unfold and propel the insect. This unique adaptation has allowed beetles to explore diverse habitats, from rainforests and deserts to freshwater environments. 
  Beetles play essential roles in ecosystems. Some are decomposers, breaking down dead plants and animals and recycling nutrients back into the soil. Others are pollinators, contributing to the reproduction of flowering plants. Predatory beetles help control the populations of other insects, acting as natural pest control agents. Meanwhile, some species have specialized relationships with plants, fungi, or even mammals, highlighting their ecological versatility.

  A powerful, honest glimpse into a relationship between father and son and between cultures, old and new, about a long-ago fishing trip. 
   
  A 2018 Caldecott Honor Book that Kirkus Reviews calls "a must-read for our times," A Different Pond is an unforgettable story about a simple event - a long-ago fishing trip. Graphic novelist Thi Bui and acclaimed poet Bao Phi deliver a powerful, honest glimpse into a relationship between father and son - and between cultures, old and new. As a young boy, Bao and his father awoke early, hours before his father's long workday began, to fish on the shores of a small pond in Minneapolis. Unlike many other anglers, Bao and his father fished for food, not recreation. A successful catch meant a fed family. Between hope-filled casts, Bao's father told him about a different pond in their homeland of Vietnam. Thi Bui's striking, evocative art paired with Phi's expertly crafted prose has earned this powerful picture books six starred reviews and numerous awards.
