Lousy Liver
by Melinda Taliancich Falgoust
"Charlie is hungry. He simply can’t wait. What will his dear mother put on his plate? Charlie picks up his fork and stops in midair. Oh, no! On his plate! What is THAT sitting there?"
Lousy Liver is an international award-winning, deliciously whimsical tale that follows the imagination of a young boy as he devises one wild plan after another to help him avoid the “lousy liver” being served for dinner. Soon, Charlie discovers that something different isn’t always something bad.
Junk
by Melinda Taliancich Falgoust
In this disposable world, it's easy to toss things aside when something newer, bigger or better comes along. But in this wordless tale with its whimsical line drawings and minimalist color, a rascally kitten learns that something old can become new again and is not just...junk.
Don't be fooled by the title. Junk is a shareable, sweet story eager to become a cherished possession of a child in your life.
Her Royal Majesty, the Superhero Bride of Frankenstein
by Melinda Taliancich Falgoust
A piece of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of Lizzie McGillicuddy’s shoe could prove to be the biggest disaster in the entire history of the freckle-faced third-grader’s career until the errant strand of tissue becomes a fantastical queen’s train, then a magical superhero’s cape, and finally a spooky bride’s veil, proving that a little positive thinking can change your whole outlook on life...and save the class costume contest!
The Mardi Gras Tree
by Melinda Taliancich Falgoust
Laissez les bon temps rouler! Let the good times roll!
It's Mardi Gras in New Orleans and everyone's excited—including the little acorn who just can't WAIT to grow into a great live oak and watch high over the parades.
But as the Great Oak says, it's not always about being the biggest or the best.
“Whatever tree you grow to be, just be the best that you can be."
An endearing tale of growth and self-worth set against the colorful backdrop of one of New Orleans' biggest celebrations.
Somebunny
by Melinda Taliancich Falgoust
It’s hard to feel like somebody when you feel like nobody notices you at all. At least, that’s how little Somebunny feels as he tries to be big and important. But Momma Bunny teaches him the most important lesson of all—just being YOU makes you the most important “somebunny” of all!
A heartwarming tale about loving who you are no matter what!
