Two-Minute Tales is a fast-paced collection of flash fiction and short stories. They are organized by length, so whether you have "Just a Minute," "A Minute or Two," or "A Few Minutes More" you'll find a story perfect for you. H. C. Heartland captures emotion and heart in Father of a Bricklayer and Happy Hearts. Ever wonder what happens when the lights go out in the library? Never Checked Out gives you a glimpse. And finally, she explores her heritage in A Thousand Voices Heard. Rex Reeson's debut features his clever writing style. See things from the perspective of a raindrop in Drip. Go on vacation with a group of fiddler crabs in Vahh Cahshun. Enjoy a good old ball game in Knuckleball, fight a cold in On the Ropes, and spend a day down in the trenches with Colt McGuiness. B. B. Smith provides the scenario and calls on your imagination to fill in the blanks in Only One, Pass the Salt and Lost and Found. You'll cheer for the husbandly hero in The List and sneer at the dastardly Malcolm.

A #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Featured in its own episode in the Netflix original show Bookmarks: Celebrating Black Voices! National Book Award winner Jacqueline Woodson and two-time Pura Belpré Illustrator Award winner Rafael López have teamed up to create a poignant, yet heartening book about finding courage to connect, even when you feel scared and alone. There will be times when you walk into a room and no one there is quite like you. There are many reasons to feel different. Maybe it's how you look or talk, or where you're from; maybe it's what you eat, or something just as random. It's not easy to take those first steps into a place where nobody really knows you yet, but somehow you do it. Jacqueline Woodson's lyrical text and Rafael López's dazzling art reminds us that we all feel like outsiders sometimes-and how brave it is that we go forth anyway. And that sometimes, when we reach out and begin to share our stories, others will be happy to meet us halfway. (This book is also available in Spanish, as El Día En Que Descubres Quién Eres!)
