The follow up to the beloved board book Dog’s First Baby!

Dog and Baby explore the delightful and puzzling ways their family prepares for Christmas.

See these branches? They’re not for tugging.
See this ball? It’s not for fetching.

It’s the holiday season, and Dog smells a change in the air. With his new friend Baby by his side, Dog explores the many curious occurrences in his house–like a tree in the living room, new and delicious scents, and fragile balls that are not for fetching–as he gets into the Christmas spirit with his family.

From the New York Times best-selling creator of the Find Momo series, Andrew Knapp, comes a moving exploration of grief for the youngest readers that will resonate with anyone who has loved and lost a pet.

I felt angry and sad, my heart left behind.
Could I play hide-and-seek, with no one to find?

Life with a dog brings adventure, friendship, and joy—but what remains after a beloved dog has passed away? With heartfelt text and playful mixed-media illustrations, Andrew Knapp meditates on the life and loss of his best friend, Momo: playing hide-and-seek all over the world, connecting with nature, and Momo’s final journey, with Andrew holding his paw.

Bittersweet and affirming, Find Momo Everywhere is a powerful exploration of grief for dog lovers of all ages—and how we can still connect with our loved ones even after they’re gone.

Play hide-and-seek with adorable dogs Yaya and Boo in this joyful board book from the creator of the Find Momo series!

Learn new words by searching for objects in each picture, and spot Yaya and Boo in the unlikeliest places.

Whether they’re hiding in a cardboard castle or snuggling in a pile of stuffed animals, Yaya and Boo show us that staying at home can be an adventure, too!

Possums may steal your garbage…but with this book, they’ll also steal your heart!

Possums are more than the ugly-cute icons of the internet. These so-called trash animals and pointy kitties are not only relatable avatars for anxious but resilient people everywhere, but nature’s secret clean-up crew.

Organized around common myths that have given possums a bad reputation, this fun and offbeat book reveals the truth about possums through dozens of adorable photos, informative illustrations, and fascinating facts.  Did you know that…

• Possums protect people and pets from disease! A single possum can eat up to 4,000 ticks per week!
• Possums excel at interspecies friendships, often sleeping in other animals’ dens.
• Possums are shy creatures: when they “play dead,” they are actually fainting from anxiety!

Written by wildlife rehabber and possum advocate Ally Burguieres, known for her popular Instagram account @ItsMeSesame, this accessible and giftable guide explains why possums deserve our admiration and offers tips on how we can protect and advocate for these magical marsupials.

I am a cat.
Are you a cat?

Cat is curious. There’s a new addition to the family, but who exactly is this small being? This new arrival doesn’t meow like a cat, or smell like a cat, or even have a tail like a cat. As Cat investigates, he might just come to appreciate this loud, silly family member. After all, they both enjoy a good catnap.

In Cat’s First Baby, the feline companion to Dog’s First Baby, Natalie Nelson captures the wonder and humor of a new family member through a cat’s eyes. Sure to delight kids and cat parents alike, this board book promises to be a repeat read-aloud.
