An inspiring modern fairy tale about a brave girl who shrinks and grows depending on how she feels, showing how all of us-no matter our size-are so much bigger than our fears. From Theodor Seuss Geisel Award-winning author Laurel Snyder and Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator LeUyen Pham.

 Violet knows what it's like to be afraid: when you're afraid, you feel helpless and small. But when Violet is afraid, she doesn't just feel small-she actually shrinks! It's tough to stop feeling frightened when you're only a few centimeters tall. But when Violet's best friend is in danger, she'll have to learn to deal with her fear in a new way-and save the day in the process.


 


 Shrinking Violet is a beautifully illustrated story about fear and bravery for anyone who has ever felt scared and small. Readers will root for Violet as she finds her voice, stands up for her friend, and, most importantly, discovers the tremendous power of her own inner strength.

BIG FEELINGS: Feeling small and afraid is a universally relatable experience. The shrinking metaphor at the core of Violet's story will resonate deeply with young readers and demonstrate that being (or feeling!) small isn't a weakness-it's normal and completely okay.


 


 EMPOWERING HEROINE: Violet is a strong female character who solves her own problems by learning to control and ultimately accept her feelings. Her story will feel familiar and wonderfully relatable to kids, and Violet is a positive role model in whom all young readers (especially girls!) can see themselves represented.


 


 ALL-STAR CREATORS: Author Laurel Snyder, Theodor Seuss Geisel Award winner, and illustrator LeUyen Pham, Caldecott Honoree, are children's literature superstars with many bestsellers to their names. They're also real-life friends! This is the first project they've collaborated on, and they've combined their all-star talent to make a truly special story.


 Perfect for:

 
•	
 Young readers experiencing worry or anxiety about scary things happening around them or in the world
 
 
•	
 Parents and caregivers looking for books that will help assure kids that it's okay to be afraid sometimes
 
 
•	
 Readers seeking stories that have a classic fairy tale feel
 
 
•	
 Gift-givers seeking a beautifully illustrated and deeply moving story]]></description><link>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C19556303</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C19556303</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Snyder, Laurel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/19556303981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781797223476/MC.GIF&amp;client=573-443-3161&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Charlie & Mouse Even Better]]></title><description><![CDATA["Affectionate and quirky" tales of two inventive brothers preparing for their mom's birthday: "Spot-on for beginning independent readers." -Kirkus Reviews

Young readers can follow along as the brothers choose the best pancakes, hunt for presents, decorate with snakes, and more.

Hi, whoever is reading this. I'm Zipporah Chava McConnell, but everyone calls me Zippy.

Things used to be simple, until a few weeks ago. Now my best friend, Bea, is acting funny; everyone at school thinks I'm weird; and my mom is making me start preparing for my bat mitzvah, even though we barely ever go to synagogue. In fact, the only thing that still seems to make sense is magic.

See, the thing is, I'm a witch. I've been casting spells since I was little. And even if no one else wants to believe in magic anymore, it's always made sense to me, always felt true. But I was still shocked the day I found a strange red book at the library and somehow...I conjured something. A girl, actually. A beautiful girl with no memory, and wings like an angel. You probably don't believe me, but I swear it's the truth.

Miriam is like no one else I've ever met. She's proof that magic is real. And it's hard to explain this part, but I just know that we're connected. That means it's up to me to help Miriam figure out what she is and where she came from. If I can do that, maybe everything else in my life will start to make sense too.
Anyway, it's worth a try.]]></description><link>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C15317640</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C15317640</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Snyder, Laurel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/15317640981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062836670/MC.GIF&amp;client=573-443-3161&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Charlie & Mouse Lost and Found]]></title><description><![CDATA[Join Charlie and Mouse as they: lose something old, find someone new, say a sad goodbye, and discover that home for them, for Blanket, and for a brand-new puppy is really … each other.

The school year is over, and it is summer in Atlanta. The sky is blue, the sun is blazing, and the days brim with possibility. But Leah feels. . . lost. She has been this way since one terrible afternoon a year ago, when everything changed. Since that day, her parents have become distant, her friends have fallen away, and Leah's been adrift and alone. 
 
Then she meets Jasper, a girl unlike anyone she has ever known. There's something mysterious about Jasper, almost magical. And Jasper, Leah discovers, is also lost. Together, the two girls carve out a place for themselves, a hideaway in the overgrown spaces of Atlanta, away from their parents and their hardships, somewhere only they can find. 
 
But as the days of this magical June start to draw to a close, and the darker realities of their lives intrude once more, Leah and Jasper have to decide how real their friendship is, and whether it can be enough to save them both.]]></description><link>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C12514804</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C12514804</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Snyder, Laurel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/12514804981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062836649/MC.GIF&amp;client=573-443-3161&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Charlie & Mouse Even Better]]></title><description><![CDATA[In this heartwarming follow-up to Laurel Snyder's award-winning beginning chapter book Charlie & Mouse, the two brothers prepare to celebrate one very special birthday: their mom's!

On the island, everything is perfect. The sun rises in a sky filled with dancing shapes; the wind, water, and trees shelter and protect those who live there; when the nine children go to sleep in their cabins, it is with full stomachs and joy in their hearts. 
 
And only one thing ever changes: on that day, each year, when a boat appears from the mist upon the ocean carrying one young child to join them-and taking the eldest one away, never to be seen again. 
 
Today's Changing is no different. The boat arrives, taking away Jinny's best friend, Deen, replacing him with a new little girl named Ess, and leaving Jinny as the new Elder. Jinny knows her responsibility now-to teach Ess everything she needs to know about the island, to keep things as they've always been. 
 
But will she be ready for the inevitable day when the boat will come back-and take her away forever from the only home she's known?]]></description><link>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C12458380</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C12458380</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Snyder, Laurel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://dbrl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/12458380981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062443434/MC.GIF&amp;client=573-443-3161&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Charlie & Mouse & Grumpy]]></title><description><![CDATA[In this heartwarming sequel to Laurel Snyder's beginning chapter book Charlie & Mouse, the two brothers enjoy a special visit from their grandpa, Grumpy.
