Traveling Rose
by Brian WrayAward-winning author-and-illustrator team Brian Wray and Shiloh Penfield are back with a new adventure featuring their beloved children's book character, Rose the stuffed bunny. In Traveling Rose, she is taking her very first big trip to London with her friend Iris and her favorite little boy. Rose is excited about the teas they would have, but soon becomes distracted by her worries. Did she pack her favorite sweater in case the weather is cold? Did she remember to turn off the lamp by her bedside? Her thoughts feel so big that Rose begins to cry and no longer wants to go. Can Rose find a way to let her worries at home and have fun on her trip? The story offers a great way for parents and teachers to talk to children about what happens when impulsive and obsessive thoughts get in the way of enjoying life's big moments as well as everyday life, and what to do about it. These types of “first times” can be stressful for anyone but, for someone with intrusive thoughts, can be filled with obstacles. Intrusive worries are there at every turn, pointing out all of the things that could go wrong or that are “dangerous.” It takes work to see through the fears and picture the possibilities, especially for our beloved Rose Bunny. Children will identify with Rose, and by allowing children to see themselves in a story, it shows them that they are not alone in their experience. Ideal for social and emotional learning, Traveling Rose teaches children to express emotion, which is one of the key ingredients to healthful development. Rose continues to be a starting point to having larger conversations that will create a lasting impact. Don’t miss her in her first picture book, Unraveling Rose.

Travels in Cuba (Travels with My Family)
by David Homel Marie-Louise GayEven for an experienced traveler like Charlie, Cuba is a place unlike any he has visited before — an island full of surprises, secrets and puzzling contradictions. When Charlie’s artist mother is invited to visit a school in Cuba, the whole family goes along on the trip. But the island they discover is a far cry from the all-inclusive resorts that Charlie has heard his friends talk about. Charlie has never visited a country as strange and puzzling as Cuba — a country where he often feels like a time traveler. Where Havana’s grand Hotel Nacional sits next to buildings that seem to be crumbling before his very eyes. Where the streets are filled with empty storefronts and packs of wild dogs, but where flowers and sherbet-colored houses may lie around the next corner, and music is everywhere. Where there are many different kinds of walls — from Havana’s famous sea wall to the invisible ones that seem aimed at keeping tourists and locals apart. Then the family heads “off the beaten track,” traveling by hot, dusty bus to Viñales, where Charlie makes friends with Lázaro, who often flies from Miami to visit his Cuban relatives. The boys ride a horse bareback, find a secret cache of rifles inside a little green mountain and go swimming with small albino fish in an underground cave. A rent-a-wreck takes the family into the countryside, where they find an abandoned hotel inhabited by goats, and a modern resort filled with tourists. And as he goes from one strange and marvelous escapade to another, Charlie finds that his expectations about a place and its people are overturned again and again.
