In the grand tradition of Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens comes an uplifting tribute to
100 everyday things worth celebrating. The list, in rhyming couplets, draws directly from a preschoolers
worldfrom slippery floors to dinosaurs, from goldfish to a birthday wish. Amy Schwartz weaves a
masterful balance between art and text, with each of the 100 items portrayed as its own well-observed
and warmly detailed vignette. While the contents provide readers with a frame of reference for the
quantity of 100a celebratory milestone in preschools and early elementary gradesthe oversized
pages envelop young children in the wonderful things surrounding them.
Amy Schwartz has written and illustrated a number of classic and award-winning picture
books. Amy was born and raised in California and now lives with her family in Brooklyn,
New York. This is her first book with Abrams, which, in fact, makes her very happy.

As with all things Montessori, students begin with the concrete and move to the abstract. When
learning geography, students first develop an understanding that the earth is a round globe, made up
of land and water. They then manipulate the shape of each continent before addressing its name and
location. Montessori: Map Work introduces readers to the seven continents via textured edges to trace
with their fingers, modes of transportation between each one for spatial context, and illustrated native
animals for relevant and meaningful associations. Young children will absorb the age-appropriate
geography and gain a better sense of their place in the world.
Bobby george and his wife, June george, founded and run Baan Dek
the first Montessori school in South Dakota. They also own and operate
Montessorium, a Montessori app company. Alyssa Nassner is an illustrator
and hand letterer based out of Minneapolis. She is the illustrator of the
Montessori series for Abrams as well as several books for Chronicle and
Ivy Press.

One day, the French artist Henri Matisse cut a small bird out of a piece of paper. It looked lonely all
by itself, so he cut out more shapes to join it. Before he knew it, Matisse had transformed his walls into
larger-than-life gardens, filled with brightly colored plants, animals, and shapes of all sizes! Featuring
cut-paper illustrations and interactive foldout pages, Matisses Garden is the inspiring story of how the
artists never-ending curiosity helped turn a small experiment into a radical new form of art.

After successfully fighting to save their field trip in Princess Labelmaker to the Rescue!, Tommy and
the gang prepare for a well-earned day of fun and adventure . . . but of course it wont be that easy! This
field trip will be full of shifting alliances and betrayals, carsickness and sugar highs. Trouble starts even
before they leave school, when Principal Rabbski decrees the field trip an origami-free zone. Dwight
secretly folds a Yoda from a Fruit Roll-Up, but will he be a match for the sour, hate-filled emperor of
darkness that Harvey makes from a desiccated pickle?
Tom Angleberger uses his spot-on grasp of middle schoolers and pitch-perfect humor to pit the
Origami Rebel Alliance against their evilest, sourest villain yet!
Tom Angleberger is the author of the bestselling Origami Yoda series. He is also the
author of Horton Halfpott and Fake Mustache, both Edgar Award nominees, and The
Qwikpick Papers. He is married to author/illustrator Cece Bell and lives in Christiansburg,
Virginia. Visit him online at origamiyoda.com.

Lydia and Julie have been through many adventures as they navigated junior high, popularity,
families, and friendship. In the final adventure in the series, the peaceful world of Hamlin Junior High
is rocked when Lydia and Julie learn that theyre going to have to play host to new students whose
school burned down. The outside threat bands the Hamlin kids together against a common enemyfor
a while. When the enemy gets their hands on Lydia and Julies notebook, no one wants anything to do
with the girls. Its the biggest threat to their friendship (and a pretty definitive failure of their quest for
popularity), and it can only be solved one way. Two words: dance battle.

This gem of a novel takes place in Pittsburgh in 1952. Franny Katzenback, while recovering from
polio, reads and falls in love with the brand-new book Charlottes Web. Bored and lonely and yearning
for a Charlotte of her own, Franny starts up a correspondence with an eloquent flea named Fleabrain
who lives on her dogs tail. While Franny struggles with physical therapy and feeling left out of her
formerly active neighborhood life, Fleabrain is there to take her on adventures based on his extensive
reading. Its a touching, funny story set in the recent past, told with Rocklins signature wit and
thoughtfulness.
Joanne Rocklin is the author of One Day and One Amazing Morning on Orange Street,
which won the California Book Award, and The Five Lives of Our Cat Zook, which won
the Golden Kite Award and was named to Floridas Sunshine State Young Readers Award
master list. She lives in Oakland, California.

Alyssa Gardner has been down the rabbit hole. She was crowned Queen of the Red Court and
faced the bandersnatch. She saved the life of Jeb, the boy she loves, and escaped the machinations of
the disturbingly appealing Morpheus. Now all she has to do is graduate from high school.
That would be easier without her mother, freshly released from an asylum, acting overly protective
one day to tempt her with another dangerous quest in the dark, challenging Wonderlandwhere she
(partly) belongs.
Could she leave Jeb and her parents behind again, for the sake of a man that she knows has
manipulated her before? Will her mother and Jeb trust her to do whats right? Readers will swoon over
the satisfying return to Howards bold, sensual reimagining of Carrolls classic.

Renowned literary great Eva Ibbotson delivers a final novel in her classic, much-loved style. A
previously unpublished work from this favorite author, The Abominables follows a family of yetis who
are forced, by tourism, to leave their home in the Himalayas and make their way across Europe to a possible new home. Siblings Con and Ellen shepherd the yetis along their eventful journey, with the help
of Perry, a good-natured truck driver. Through a mountain rescue in the Alps and a bullfight in Spain,
the yetis at last find their way to an ancestral estate in Englandonly to come upon a club of voracious

hunters who have set their sights on the most exotic prey of all: the Abominable Snowmen.
Briskly funny and full of incident, The Abominables is vintage Ibbotson. With unforgettable characters and thoughtful messages about the environment and animal cruelty, its a generous last gift to her
many devoted fans.
Eva Ibbotson has long been a favorite of both children and adult readers on both sides
of the Atlantic. Her novels include The Secret of Platform 13, Which Witch?, The Great
Ghost Rescue, Island of the Aunts, Dial-a-Ghost, and Journey to the River Sea, which won
the Smarties Prize. She died in 2010 at her home in Newcastle, England.
