Children
Wonderful You by Lisa Graff
Before you were with us, we already knew
that the thing most worth doing was waiting for you. So begins this warm and loving picture book all about the joy of waiting for a new baby to be born. Month by month, parents and families of all sorts watch the baby-to-be grow, from a sweet pea to a mango and eventually to a pumpkin–until finally, the babies are born as their wonderful little selves.

Teen
The Assignment by Liza Wiemer
When an assignment given by a favorite teacher instructs a group of students to argue for the Final Solution, a euphemism used to describe the Nazi plan for the genocide of the Jewish people, Logan March and Cade Crawford are horrified. Their teacher cannot seriously expect anyone to complete an assignment that fuels intolerance and discrimination. Logan and Cade decide they must take a stand.

Adult
High Tea by Diana Isaiou
This beautifully photographed cookbook celebrates a British-style high tea–where all the delightful snacks are laden with cannabis. Gobbling down cannabis gives you a different high than smoking it, plus it’s fun and easy to bake with, and the therapeutic benefits are much more effective. So it’s time to get this book and make a classy high tea worthy of the British royals (but load it with space cakes, tarts, and sweet treats).
