Lexi P. is back with her big imagination and even bigger message. In The Ice Cream Talk, Lexi shares a positive message about "loving your flavor" - which is an analogy she uses for kids to understand the importance of diversity, inclusion, and more importantly, "learning to love the skin you're in." Once again, as with her first book, Curly Girls Love Your Curls, self-esteem is Lexi's main theme. Her beautifully illustrated book reinforces the importance of "loving self" - no matter one's race, color, body type or culture - by sharing a lesson she learned from her "Grammy," that's for readers of all ages. Lexi wants everyone to remember: "We all come from various backgrounds, with a lot of different flavors but we are all family, members of humanity. No matter what flavor you are, remember to love the skin that you're in."

National Book Award-finalist Ibi Zoboi makes her middle-grade debut with a moving story of a girl finding her place in a world that's changing at warp speed. Twelve-year-old Ebony-Grace Norfleet has lived with her beloved grandfather Jeremiah in Huntsville, Alabama ever since she was little. As one of the first black engineers to integrate NASA, Jeremiah has nurtured Ebony-Grace’s love for all things outer space and science fiction—especially Star Wars and Star Trek. But in the summer of 1984, when trouble arises with Jeremiah, it’s decided she’ll spend a few weeks with her father in Harlem. Harlem is an exciting and terrifying place for a sheltered girl from Hunstville, and Ebony-Grace’s first instinct is to retreat into her imagination. But soon 126th Street begins to reveal that it has more in common with her beloved sci-fi adventures than she ever thought possible, and by summer's end, Ebony-Grace discovers that Harlem has a place for a girl whose eyes are always on the stars.

From a beat-up postal van turned food truck, Coolhaus has rocketed to a national brand. Yahoo! called it “the best ice cream in America.” The inventive sandwiches, named after famous architects, are sold in supermarkets across the country, as well as from trucks in Los Angeles, New York, Austin, and Dallas. Coolhaus has drawn accolades from the New York Times, Every Day with Rachael Ray, Time, and Good Morning America, to name a few, and from such celebrities as Will Ferrell, Jimmy Kimmel, and Alex Guarnaschelli. Now the owners part with the recipes for their coolest creations, like the BuckMINTster Fuller (Dirty Mint Chip Ice Cream with Chocolate Chip Cookies) and the Frank Behry (Strawberry Gelato with Snickerdoodles). Daring flavors range from classic (Cookies and Sweet Cream), to boozy (Bourbon Manhattan), to vegan (Lychee Martini), and even savory (Fried Chicken and Waffle). Sandwiched among the treats are tips on ice cream making, profiles of major and up-and-coming architects, and amusing tales of the owners’ forays into the ice cream business.

When a high schooler gets a job in the art department of a nearby university, she begins to suspect that the campus is haunted by a ghost—and maybe even a serial killer LaDonna Martindale hopes that her new job at the local college will help to inspire her own painting. But every night, in the art school basement, she sorts canvases for the upcoming gallery showing. And every night, she feels the same strange, comforting presence of someone in the basement with her—even if she can’t see him. When LaDonna suddenly discovers a beautiful painting on the basement wall that wasn’t there before, she realizes that her ghost is an incredible artist. Maybe, just maybe, he can be the muse she’s been lacking. But when a string of murders on campus turns her small town upside down, LaDonna isn’t sure whom to trust—her best friend, Johnny; the art school director; or even her ghost. LaDonna can sense someone stalking her whenever she’s on campus, and she starts to wonder if she might be the serial killer’s next victim.
