Getting a new book in October is as refreshing as opening a window on a crisp fall day: Kids are getting busier with schoolwork, and a newly minted story is an invigorating reminder that reading can — and should! — be fun.
This month’s new releases offer up action, adventure, and plenty of humor. Plus, they teach invaluable life lessons, from showing how a character harnesses courage when facing an obstacle to the importance of friendship.
For instance, the new Princess Truly #6: I Am Mighty will help your little learner build confidence and determination, all while making them smile and giggle at the turn of every page. This charming book is packed with cheerful humor, vibrant artwork, playful rhymes, and captivating adventures — and makes for the perfect addition to your child's personal library.
For older readers, Two Degrees is an action-packed book about three brave kids who experience a global catastrophe. This enthralling story tackles the topic of climate change and empowers readers to make an impact and speak up for what they believe in.
Meanwhile, animal lovers will delight in graphic novels and comedy books featuring dogs, such as Pig the Rebel, Diary of a Pug #7: Pug's Road Trip, and Pets Rule #2: The Poodle of Doom.
