One set back that some children will face in school is bullying. According to Pacer.org, one in every five students report being bullied. In the third book in the Gizmo Girl series, Geraldine and her friends have had enough of the class bully, and devise a plan to teach him a lesson. Rather than retaliate by becoming a bully herself, Geraldine uses her engineering mind to create a gadget that will show the bully how much his words hurt. The anti-bullying shield she creates shows the bully what he looks and sounds like when he picks on others, showing him just how unkind he appears.

Inspire your children to speak up and spread anti-bullying awareness this school year with “Geraldine and the Anti-bullying Shield,” available everywhere books are sold!

One of the best parts of school as a child is the excitement around class trips that are scheduled throughout the year. Nobody knows this excitement quite like Geraldine. In “Geraldine and the Space Bees” Geraldine and her class take a field trip to the space museum. After the trip, Geraldine is inspired to create an invention to save the declining bee population by sending them to space!

What was your most inspiring field trip as a kid?

Geraldine always finds a fun way to learn inside and outside of the classroom, so we can guess her advice for preparing for back to school is to practice your favorite subjects at home before arriving back to school! In “Geraldine and the Most Spectacular Science Project,” Geraldine creates an award-winning project using materials she finds at home.

FETCH, CAT. FETCH! | Kirkus Reviews

We are over the moon to share our latest Kirkus Reviews review of our Schiffer Kids book "Fetch, Cat. Fetch!"

"Prolific author Ghigna presents a simple reader with plenty of repetition of sight words. The plain text will encourage new readers to read along or at least to memorize the text. Hyde’s feathery illustrations that show the persistent child and her stubborn puss are inviting despite the muted palette."

Read the full review here:

Kitty cat cooperation is never an easy get.

Sometimes it can be difficult to put down your devices and go outside to enjoy the great outdoors. It is something we are all becoming increasingly aware of, and something Simon from our new “Hare and Bear” series struggles with in the first book in the series, “Tim’s Hat.”

In this modern-day fable, readers will join Simon the hare and Tim the bear as one very busy friend learns a valuable lesson from his very content, laid-back friend. “Tim’s Hat” serves as a gentle moral about a slower, simpler, device-free lifestyle, while also focusing on appreciating one’s own gifts and abilities.

Stay tuned this week to learn more about “Tim’s Hat,” and order your copy through the product tag today!

How do you make time to “unplug?”
