Bobby the Brave (Sometimes)

Bobby the Brave (Sometimes)
From Lisa Yee and Caldecott Medalist Dan Santat, a hilarious sequel to Bobby vs. Girls (Accidentally).


Bobby Ellis-Chan is ready to fight his fears (maybe?).



In his last adventure, Bobby Ellis-Chan got stuck to a stinky tree, had underwear attached to his back, and faced down a whole wolfpack of girls. What could be scarier or more humiliating than that?



Oh, how about playing sports with his football-hero dad ...

A cat with 27 toes ...

An asthma attack in public ...

Dancing on stage in the school musical ...



And the list goes on! Bobby will have to overcome his fears if he's going to come out on top.

Millicent Min, Girl Genius

Millicent Min, Girl Genius
Who would have thought being smart could be so hard (and funny)? Millicent Min is having a bad summer. Her fellow high school students hate her for setting the curve. Her fellow 11-year-olds hate her for going to high school. And her mother has arranged for her to tutor Stanford Wong, the poster boy for Chinese geekdom. But then Millie meets Emily. Emily doesn't know Millicent's IQ score. She actually thinks Millie is cool. And if Millie can hide her awards, ignore her grandmother's advice, swear her parents to silence, blackmail Stanford, and keep all her lies straight, she just might make her first friend. What's it gong to take? Sheer genius.
