Book excerpt: "An empathetic picture book about being a little bit different."--Kirkus Reviews More than anything, Lucas wants to enjoy birthday parties like his friends... but he is overwhelmed by all of the sights, sounds and sensations that come with celebrations. When he gets invited to a birthday party for his friend, he makes a brave plan to join in, thinking that he should act like everyone else. But when his plan fails, a new friend teaches him that there is more than one way to enjoy a birthday party... and that's perfectly fine. *** Lucas was a boy who did not like birthday parties. He couldn't really explain it, but something about birthday parties made his insides go all squooshy, gooshy and his brain feel squiggly, wiggly. Children with high sensitivity or neurodevelopmental challenges often experience sensory overload, which means they find loud noises, busy places, and too many people overwhelming. It can be very stressful for the children, causing them to feel excluded, and anxious about new places or events. This wonderful book addresses these issues in a helpful and positive way by telling the story of Lucas, who doesn't like birthday parties, but discovers a way to celebrate that makes him feel comfortable and secure. The story helps children and their parents make sense of overwhelming feelings and overstimulation, by normalizing such experiences and acknowledging that different needs are always valid. - Lauren Callaghan, Consultant Clinical Psychologist

Book excerpt: It's not easy being an introverted kid in an extroverted town. Hunter Grayson is a 14-year-old boy who enjoys doing things by himself and hates being the center of attention. He has always felt different from his outgoing family and his chatty classmates, but he doesn't understand why. Now he's about to enter high school and he's terrified. Lucky for him, he quickly befriends Ariana, an adventurous girl with confidence to spare, and Ty, a rising football star with a kind soul and a warm smile. Together, they will embark on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance as they navigate the complicated waters of adolescence. Throughout his freshman year, Hunter will learn to overcome his self-esteem issues and embrace his introversion. Instead of changing, like everyone tells him to do, Hunter will learn that there's nothing wrong with being the quiet, reflective kid who likes spending time by himself. Introverted Me is a coming-of-age story about acceptance, friendship, and self-love. This is a book for anyone who has ever felt like there's something wrong with them because of their quiet nature and who feel like they have to change in order to fit in and please those around them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet a boy with feelings so big that they glow from his cheeks, spill out of his eyes, and jump up and down on his chest. When a loud truck drives by, he cries. When he hears a joke, he bursts with joy. When his loved ones are having a hard day, he feels their emotions as if they were his own. The boy tries to cope by stuffing down his feelings, but with a little help and artistic inspiration, the boy realizes his feelings are something to be celebrated. Written by debut picture book author Britney Winn Lee and boldly illustrated by Jacob Souva, The Boy with Big, Big Feelings is relatable for any child, but especially for children experiencing anxiety and extreme emotions, or who have been diagnosed with autism or as a Highly Sensitive Person.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A ninetieth-birthday celebration may be ruined by a nefarious killer, in a mystery filled with “believable and lovable characters” (Publishers Weekly). The town of Tinker’s Cove is looking forward to the celebration marking former librarian Julia Ward Howe Tilley’s ninetieth birthday. Lucy Stone, Miss Tilley's closest friend, dreamed up the party idea—around the same time she decided she’s not getting old without a fight. Noticing crow's feet and a potential jelly belly, she’s resolved to exercise more and purchase some heavy-duty wrinkle cream, asap! That sounds like a plan—until Lucy realizes her daughter's fourteenth birthday bash, a coed sleepover, may turn her hair white overnight. What was she thinking? Likely she was distracted by the shocking death of Sherman Cobb, the town’s oldest attorney, an apparent suicide. His law partner, however, thinks Sherman was murdered. Poking about in Sherman's papers, Lucy turns up an intriguing tie between the dead man and Miss Tilley—but soon, no one can get to see the librarian as her bossy niece and biker great-nephew insist that she’s “failing.” Now, as a killer's ruthless plan rushes toward a conclusion, Lucy needs answers, or she and Miss Tilley won’t live long enough to make a wish and blow out the candles—in a suspenseful puzzler from the New York Times-bestselling author. “Reading a new Leslie Meier mystery is like catching up with a dear old friend.”—Kate Carlisle, New York Times-bestselling author of the Bibliophile Mysteries “Mothers everywhere will identify with Lucy and the domestic problems she encounters.”—Publishers Weekly

Book excerpt: "Birthday party" is a suspense thriller about the threat and incursion into our country's ideologies by an extremist group intent on inflicting maximum casualties and damage to our nation's icons of liberty and freedoms during our Fourth of July celebrations. In Seattle, the threat is met by a coalition of the Seattle police department, numerous other government agencies and citizen involvement. Captain Harry Snyder, S.P.D., and his cadre of police officers unite with the government lawmen, the United States military and, together with many brave citizens, clash head to head with those ruthless, hostile forces. It is a classic tale of terror and mayhem versus law and order, of good versus evil. With many subplots, twists and turns, the characters in the book become heroic individuals who meet and defeat this impending danger. It reaches an exciting, dramatic conclusion in an epic battle on the top of the space needle. Only one survives.
