Delightful” Jennifer Lynn Alvarez, author of THE GUARDIAN HERD and RIDERS OF THE REALM book series.

Ask me my name? Want me to play? Call on me in class? I say nothing and hope no one will see me. I call that playing possum. It's my way of being shy. Blossom wants to speak up in class, and she wants to spend time with friends at lunch and at recess. She also loves to jam on her flute, make glitter glam headbands, and recite poetry... but you might not know that, because Blossom is also very shy! She wants to participate in school and with friends, but whenever she tries, she freezes up and plays possum instead. And playing possum is not the best way to make friends! With some gentle encouragement from her peers and her music teacher, Blossom learns that taking risks usually isn’t as bad as she fears, and can have a big payoff. She might still be shy, but she’s getting better at putting herself out there and having fun. Includes a Note to Parents and Other Caregivers by Julia Martin Burch, PhD, with more information on the cognitive-behavioral strategies Blossom uses to cope with shyness and ways to encourage your own shy child.

A comic and heartwarming memoir about childhood's second act from Real Simple journalist Catherine Newman. Much is written about a child's infancy and toddler years, which is good since children will never remember it themselves. It is ages 4-14 that make up the second act, as Catherine Newman puts it in this delightfully candid, outlandishly funny new memoir about the years that "your children will remember as childhood." Following Newman's son and daughter as they blossom from preschoolers into teenagers, Catastrophic Happiness is about the bittersweet joy of raising children -- and the ever-evolving landscape of issues parents traverse. In a laugh out-loud, heart-wrenching, relatable voice, Newman narrates events as momentous as grief and as quietly moving as the moonlit face of a sleeping child. From tantrums and friendship to fear and even sex, Newman's fresh take will appeal to any parent riding this same roller coaster of laughter and heartbreak.

From the author of New York Times bestsellers Easy and Breakable—a standalone novel in the Contours of the Heart series. Courage means rising up to defend your beliefs… or daring to question them. Erin McIntyre was captivating, but forbidden. His professional subordinate. The embodiment of unearned privilege. The daughter of his sworn enemy. Isaac Maat was impossible to read. Smart, ambitious, and emotionally detached. Hotter than anyone’s boss should ever be. And definitely hiding something. He told himself that getting to know her would help him take down her father. She told herself that getting under his skin would distract her wrecked heart from its misery. Neither predicted their private war would lead to an intimate battle in which the victor would be the first one to surrender.
