WINNIE: The True Story of the Bear Who Inspired Winnie-the-Pooh by Sally M. Walker, illus. by Jonathan D. Voss
Shelf Awareness, February 6, 2015: STARRED REVIEW!
« “Children will be delighted to learn more about an extraordinary bear whose spirit is so aptly captured in Milne's stories.”
EL PERRO CON SOMBRERO: A Bilingual Doggy Tale by Derek Taylor Kent, illus. by Jed Henry

“Henry's retro-style mixed-media illustrations—pencil, watercolor, and digitalized watercolor illustrations—neatly suit Kent's spunky, lighthearted, fully bilingual story.”
Meet Calista Brill’s regal kitty, Persephone! Calista is a Senior Editor for First Second and works such great graphic novels as The Divine by Asaf Hanuka, Tomer Hanuka, and Boaz Lavie. Yann Martell, the author of Life of Pi, praised The Divine as having, “Arresting images, a supernatural tale rooted in a real story, and cool gore – The Divine has got it all."

REVIEWS:
THE SCULPTOR by Scott McCloud
Shelf Awareness, February 13, 2015: STARRED REVIEW!
« “A satisfying and emotionally rich graphic novel that explores an artist's fear of being forgotten.”
Entertainment Weekly, February 6, 2015: SCAN ATTACHED!
“Using a sneak peek at his new graphic novel, The Sculptor, the legend [Scott McCloud] deconstructs one of the most overlooked and underappreciated art forms in comics: the speech bubble.”
The New York Times, February 3, 2015: SCAN ATTACHED!
“’The ultimate pride of the hyper-rational artist […] is to see if you can create something that wasn’t calculated at all.’”
DRAGONS BEWARE! by Jorge Aguirre, illus. by Rafael Rosado
Kirkus, March 1, 2015
“While the funny, fast-paced story will draw in readers, it is the trio's winning friendship and teamwork that will leave fans clamoring for a sequel. Clever Marie and little master chef-turned-swordsmith Gaston each get their chance to shine, and it's impossible not to root for scruffy, hotheaded Claudette. This rowdy adventure is sure to be a crowd pleaser.”
