BEFORE AFTER by Matthias Aregui and Anne-Margot Ramstein is truly a unique book that is hard to classify. Smaller than a picture book in trim size, longer than a picture book in page count, an not exactly a graphic novel, BEFORE AFTER is best described as a meditation. The title says it all, but the choices the authors make in images of before and after they choose to present are anything but

Make Map Art by Nate Padavick and Salli Swindell, the brother and sister creative design and illustration team otherwise known as Studio SSS is my latest, greatest bookstore find. I have been fascinated by maps for a very long time and am always partial to a kid's book that has a map in it. The idea of making maps to tell a story, to mark a memory and, as the introduction notes, to "define

I am always on the lookout for a special cookbook with recipes that will appeal to kids and can be made (with adult supervision and/or help) by kids. Of course deserts are an easy option, but the range of popular possibilities isn't very interesting. Cupcakes and cake pops are so last year and macarons just don't seem kid friendly, despite the vivid colors and amazing flavors like lavender

Fairie-ality Style: A Sourcebook of Inspirations from Nature, is the sole creation of David Ellwand, the creative mind, eye and hands behind the first Fairie-ality book, Fairie-ality: The Fashion Collection from the House of Ellwand. With this book, Ellwand moves beyond Fairie fashion to Fairie lifestyles. There are photos of Fairie houses and fairie furniture as well as a little bit more

Before Disney's Tinkerbell and her newly created hometown of Pixie Hollow took over as the face of Fairie, David Ellwand opened a window on their world in 2002 with his book Fairie-ality Style. From Candlewick Press, traditionally a publisher of children's books, this book is hard to classify. Where I work, it ends up in the Art/Fashion section of the bookstore. However, I see

Before I tell you the amazing story behind the founder of KaBOOM!, I want to tell you how RARE a book of games for kids to play outside is. I am sure these kind of books exist somewhere, but as a bookseller for almost twenty years, I have seen few cross my path in that time. There are plenty of books of things for kids to do while traveling by car, plane, boat or other form of transport. There
