A new, hilarious picture book for kids from the #1 New York Times bestselling authors of P IS FOR PTERODACTYL! What makes this picture book for kids be THE WORST read aloud book ever? Try reading these sentences aloud: The mummy prepared farro for dinner. The mummy prepared pharaoh for dinner. Sounds the same, right? But they're totally different! Kids will laugh at the irreverent, super silly humor and witty illustrations that provide context clues and help explain the outrageous sentences. While kids are cracking up at you repeating yourself, they also will be learning about homonyms and homophones! There's also a glossary to help explain the sound-alike words. This hysterical book for kids is sure to delight parents, teachers, and anyone who loves to laugh at the absurdity of the English language. "Those who love wordplay are the natural constituency for No Reading Allowed: The Worst Read-Aloud Book Ever, a picture book that's bright with comic scenes... [and] brilliant pairings of picture and word (and word with word)."—The Wall Street Journal "If you're a logophile (=word nerd), grammar geek, or a bookworm, and especially, if you're a teacher or homeschooler, snag a copy of No Reading Allowed for yourself and a friend. This will be a hot holiday gift for us word nerd folks!"—Imagination Soup

I've been on my own since I was nine and now I'm sixteen. But so what. I'm good, and so is my little brother. So why the state won't let us do our own thing is beyond me. Instead, we've been forced to live with a foster family who wants to love us, but I'm not beat--I'm just trying to do me. To make matters worse, I've been checking for this guy, Ny'eem. But my new clique has an unbreakable rule--no boyz allowed to come between our friendship--which is forcing me to keep my relationship with Ny'eem a secret.

Byrd, author of Losing Romeo "A new series with a pair of drama-fueled stories about girls looking for love in all the wrong ways." --Publishers Weekly on The Break-Up Diaries

A laugh-out-loud look at all the fun things grown-ups never let you do . . . now in paperback! Jenny Offill, author of 11 Experiments That Failed, describes how tough it is to be a kid, when even the (seemingly) best ideas are met with resistance.

The theme of this Dragonfly Book is Just for Fun.

Out of twenty-seven years of therapy, Reace spent two years journal writing. By sharing those two years in this book, she fulfills her desire that her life experience not be in vain. Her story, especially, will educate those who work with abused, traumatized, dissociated individuals. Like Dr. Bradshaw who wrote the Foreword, in reading Reaces journal, you will experience awe and respect; anger and sadness. While in the midst of horror the authors spirit touched wonder. One night, in her anger, Reace decided as she cried out to God, Ill show them, Ill show them all. I will get an in-curable disease and then I will find a cure for it. Then someone WILL see me. She forgot that she had made this conscious decision. In writing this journal, Reace re-membered and understood why she manifested Multiple Sclerosis. With courage and persistance, Reace healed her childhood trauma and MS. The book closes with her Therapists case study of a long and successful healing journey.
