Principal Tate is Running Late! by Henry Cole
When their principal is running late, all members of Hardy School must work together to keep things running smoothly! This jaunty and upbeat picture book from celebrated author-illustrator Henry Cole is perfect for back-to-school and all year round.
Every day goes smoothly at Hardy Elementary School because Principal Tate keeps everyone happy and everything in order. But what happens when her car breaks down one day and she’s running late?
How will the students, teachers, parents, and visitors get through the day? Will chaos take over Hardy School? The solution is simple: Everyone at the school must do their part to save the day.
With adorable animal illustrations, trademark humor, and an inspiring message about working together, Henry Cole’s latest picture book is the perfect gift for students, teachers, and principals—and those who need to learn why it’s important to be on time!

Amelia's Notebook by Marissa Moss
When Amelia’s mom gives her a journal for her birthday, she finally has a place to share her truest feelings at last!
Nine-year-old Amelia’s mother gives her a blank notebook to write down her thoughts and tells her it will make her feel better. Why would a dumb notebook make me feel better, Amelia thinks. The only thing that will make Amelia feel better is going back to old house, her old school, and her old friends. Amelia does not—do you hear this!—want to move. But no one is listening to Amelia.
