It's the tantalizing smell of Chinese food that's enticed the Binkerton children back into the creepy Good Times Travel Agency. Sure, the fried noodles are delicious, but then the shop owner pulls another one of his mysterious guidebooks off his shelf and before they can stop him, he's sent the children hurtling back in time once again. This time they land in first-century China, where little Libby quickly manages to slip away from Josh and Emma in an official carriage headed to the capital city. But while she's living the ancient China high life with nobility, the twins get mistaken for barbarian spies and soon they're being chased by imperial guards! Will the twins manage to find Libby, and their way back home, before the guards catch up to them? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Fluffy Vandermere, the cat sergeant in charge of P.U.R.S.T. (Pets of the Universe Ready for Space Travel), works tirelessly to protect the world from alien (aka bug) domination. It's a big job. 'The whole planet is Fluffy's space station. All the people in the world are his humans. And every space pet out there is his responsibility.' Now, suddenly and without warning, Fluffy discovers P.U.R.S.T. headquarters, the most secure building in the world, is under attack by an angry swarm of insects, and they're armed with every cat's worst nightmare -- spray bottles! Warding off this level of terrifying invasion will require cunning, skill, ingenuity and the ability to move quickly. Fluffy's been out of the field and at his desk job for quite some time now -- is he up to this massive challenge? You bet he is! This hysterical graphic novel by talented artist Ashley Spires is a spin-off from her successful Binky series (Binky is a member of P.U.R.S.T.). Just as in the Binky books, dry wit and slapstick humor abound here as the animals oh-so-seriously go about their jobs -- with the occasional bathroom break, of course. The artwork, presented in many images per page, deftly conveys loads of action, emotional drama and physical comedy. This is a perfect book for emerging readers who are looking for something more challenging than a picture book that doesn't have too much d104. The irresistible Fluffy also does a terrific job of showcasing lessons on the character attributes of individual responsibility, determination and courage. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Poor Quin. No matter what he does or where he goes, something always goes horribly-and hilariously-wrong! Like when he gets chased by a swarm of seagulls shouting 'Fries!'

After all, tomorrow just might be his lucky day! High-energy physical comedy spills out of every panel in this three-story collection from Bob Holt. Holt is a writer, illustrator and animator who co-created Hallmark's Hoops and Yoyo, and he knows just what it takes to make kids laugh. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

It's all up to Gordon now. His partner has been captured. His superior officer has been neutralized. And his distress calls to P.U.R.S.T. (Pets of the Universe Ready for Space Travel) have gone unanswered. That means he must fight the aliens alone! But Gordon's not a fighter; his deadliest weapon is his mind. So what's a genius dog to do? Time travel, of course! He'll use his new time machine to travel back in time, then he can stop the invasion before it happens. But there's a malfunction: instead of sending him back five days, the time machine sends him back five years! And now he's out of fuel! With only his wits to depend on, can Gordon get back to the future in time to save his friends and his humans? This laugh-out-loud junior graphic novel is part of Ashley Spires's hugely popular P.U.R.S.T. Adventure series. Gordon the dog is a favorite character from Spires's companion series about Binky the cat. Not too text-heavy, these titles are perfect for emerging readers, though the nonstop action, melodrama and physical comedy make them popular with all children (and adults, too!). With lots of details to look for in the artwork, such as hilarious sound effects and animal facial expressions, these titles are terrific for developing visual literacy in beginning readers. This story showcases the character education attributes of responsibility, courage, and perseverance. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In this unique, interactive graphic novel, early readers learn how to make good choices-and even choose what the characters do next! Dragon and Unicorn are best friends who agree on everything. Well, almost everything. Dragon likes to follow the rules, while Unicorn is more of a free spirit, so sometimes they fight. Luckily, in these three stories, whenever the friends disagree, the reader gets to choose what happens next. Each choice leads to a different outcome, and at the end of the story, the reader can start again and choose a whole new storyline! Bestselling author P. J. Hoover lets readers drive the action in these short stories. The two characters are funny and relatable as they argue about clubhouse rules and what to do at a sleepover. As young readers consider the best way to deal with the interpersonal conflicts, they'll gain important social and relationship skills. Playful art by Lisa Wiley perfectly showcases the emotional drama in the stories. Strong curriculum ties to social-emotional learning, conflict resolution, and story writing combine with excellent character-education lessons in cooperation, empathy, honesty and teamwork in a totally immersive interactive package.

Ashley Spires brings her signature deadpan humor to this hilarious story about one bug's quest for greatness (with some cool insect facts mixed in!). Meet Burt, a ten-lined june beetle. He's sure he belongs in the category of bugs with superpower-like abilities. No, he can't carry 50 times his weight, like ants. No, he's not able to spray paralyzing venom, like some termites. No, he can't release a bad smell to repel predators, like stink bugs. What june beetles are known for is chasing porch lights and flailing their legs in the air --- does that count? Hmm ... Maybe Burt will just have to accept the truth. June beetles don't have any special abilities. But when some other bugs find themselves in perilous trouble that even their superpowers can't get them out of, Burt suddenly realizes there is one thing that he can do to save his friends --- and it's something that only a june beetle can do! Bestselling author-illustrator Ashley Spires's signature mix of slapstick and dry humor is front and center in this winning story that highlights how being special is as much about character as it is about abilities. Full of simply drawn panels prominently featuring the ever-plucky Burt, it's a perfect pick for emerging readers and young fans of comics. Burt's positive attitude toward himself and others offers many opportunities for character education lessons on caring, positive thinking and initiative. Snuck into the pages are facts about bugs and their traits, making this a fun choice for a science unit on the characteristics of living things. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
