Daria Rose And The Day She Chose by Yvonne Capitelli: “This fun story about a young girl teaches self-empowerment and fosters: making good choices, positive behaviors, good self-esteem, confidence, kindness, courage, strength, determination, friendship, good values, and the importance of being thoughtful and thankful.” (April 2012)

The Banana Police written by Katy Koontz & illustrated by Kelsey C. Roy: “Deep in the jungle is a sweet little town where people happily co-exist with elephants, until the townspeople become increasingly annoyed with their lovable, lumpy, neighbors. After all, they snore loudly, hog the best seats at the movies, and block all the aisles in the supermarket. Who needs that?” (November 2012)

Farbissen by Jasmine Schwartz: “Melissa Morris is a thirty-something single New Yorker who works in fashion. She has it all, until she fails spectacularly and is banished from the fashion industry. Set adrift, Melissa follows her boyfriend to London, hoping for a second chance. But Melissa’s search for herself is interrupted when she discovers a dead body.” (December 2012)
