As 2024 comes to a close, it’s the perfect opportunity to top off your bookshelf with the best titles December has to offer. Whether you’re looking for books to share with your loved ones or titles to add to your personal collection, the following booklist showcases diverse releases for every occasion.
The first honorable mention is written by none other than your very own Tutu Teacher – I’m thrilled to announce that the latest book in the Getting Ready series, Getting Ready for Valentine’s Day, is out on December 10th! To discover Kai’s story, find the description below:
“It’s time to get ready for Valentine’s Day! Kai’s whole class is busily preparing by making friendship cards, decorating homemade mailboxes, and sharing delicious sweets and treats! But Kai and their friends can’t help but worry… what if they don’t receive any cards at all? Luckily, their teacher will help the whole class learn the true meaning of friendship!”
I’m so excited to bring this story into the world – I hope you love Kai as much as I loved writing him!
I’m honored to be amongst other incredible authors releasing books this winter. Dive into Rob Sanders’ new work, Between You and Me, to uncover a heartwarming tale of empathy, kindness, and imagination, as a new friendship blossoms between two kids. Magical realism meets historical fiction in Nadine Pinede’s book When the Mapou Sings. Written for YA audiences, the novel explores Haitian history and politics through sweeping verse.
