Big Jabe
Written by Jerdine Nolen, illustrated by Kadir Nelson
Recommended Ages: 6 7 8 9 10 11
When Addy finds a little boy floating down the river in a basket, she's surprised. When the boy calls to the fish to jump out of the river and into Addy's wagon, she's speechless. And, when the fish obey, she knows for a fact that life on the Plenty Plantation is about to change! In this original Tall Tale, Jerdine Nolan has created "a John Henry-sized hero with the strength of fifty men, a heart as big as all outdoors, and a mysterious gift at spiriting slaves away to freedom."

Hands Are Not For Hitting
Written by Martine Agassi, Ph.D, illustrated by Marieka Heinlen
Recommended Ages: 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Children are faced with potential conflict at home, in the classroom, at daycare, every time they play with a friend or sibling, or play in the park or schoolyard. They must learn to handle problems capably and peaceably. But, it's not enough to tell children what they can't do without showing them positive behavior they can do instead. Hands Are Not For Hitting helps kids consider all the positive things they can do with their hands while recognizing the many things that cause children to feel angry, upset, jealous, frustrated or afraid. Hands are Not For Hitting reminds children that hurting another person doesn't solve anything - it only makes a problem bigger. And, it reminds adults that it is our responsibility to teach and encourage children to handle conflict in safe, effective and positive ways.
