Watching Cartoons with Boys is a collection of short stories and essays that catalogue different cartoons that have been important to the author at different stages of her life, as well as some of the relationships that have developed in parallel. It considers gendered stereotypes in Bob s Burgers, the way relationships sometimes play out like an episode of Rick and Morty, and contains plenty of adoration for Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time. Funny, reflective, and painfully relatable, Watching Cartoons with Boys is an engaging text from an emerging Australian writer. ""Nostalgic, clever and funny, Watching Cartoons with Boys is a reminder of all the ways that cartoons intersect with and reflect our own lives."" - Jess Gately, Underground Writers Watching Cartoons with Boys reminds me of adolescence the relief in what I have left behind, the pride in what I have overcome, and the nostalgia of that which has stuck with me along the way. It is in a word poignant. Alex Creece, Ramona Magazine

Winner of the Newbery Medal, Coretta Scott King Author Award, and Kirkus Prize for Young Readers’ Literature! Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier and Gene Luen Yang, New Kid is a timely, honest graphic novel about starting over at a new school where diversity is low and the struggle to fit in is real, from award-winning author-illustrator Jerry Craft. Seventh grader Jordan Banks loves nothing more than drawing cartoons about his life. But instead of sending him to the art school of his dreams, his parents enroll him in a prestigious private school known for its academics, where Jordan is one of the few kids of color in his entire grade. As he makes the daily trip from his Washington Heights apartment to the upscale Riverdale Academy Day School, Jordan soon finds himself torn between two worlds—and not really fitting into either one. Can Jordan learn to navigate his new school culture while keeping his neighborhood friends and staying true to himself? This middle grade graphic novel is an excellent choice for tween readers, including for summer reading. New Kid is a selection of the Schomburg Center's Black Liberation Reading List.

Without being taught about body boundaries, a child may be too young to understand when abuse is happening—or that it’s wrong. This straightforward, gentle book offers a tool parents, teachers, and counselors can use to help children feel, be, and stay safe. The rhyming story and simple, friendly illustrations provide a way to sensitively share and discuss the topic, guiding young children to understand that their private parts belong to them alone. The overriding message of My Body Belongs to Me is that if someone touches your private parts, tell your mom, your dad, your teacher, or another safe adult.
