Stories and fairy tales are powerful tools that develop kids’ imaginations and language skills; they also teach them the ability to focus. Through the adventures of Polly Pony, the child recognizes themselves in their hero and experiences the full range of emotions — from kindness to anger, from happiness to sadness, from shyness to courage. Polly Pony stories are great vehicles of positive messages that help parents interact with their children by instilling the greatest moral values.

Publisher's summary
Meet Jelaya (jeh-LAY-uh.) She hates wash day. The tugs! The scrubs! The pinching and pulling! Jelaya can't think of a worse way to spend the day—that is, until her big sister Jasmine explains that this wash day will be different. Jelaya is going to wash Jasmine's hair instead!
Wash Day is a sweet and honest exploration of the beauty and tradition of wash days. Offering gentle guidance and framing the all-day affair as an act of self-care, this story also serves as an avenue to demystify and educate others on natural haircare routines, which are often misunderstood and stigmatized.
Mayo Clinic Press Kids creates empowering health and wellness content in partnership with pediatric experts.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Eve looks like an ordinary 12-year-old girl, but there’s nothing ordinary about her. She has no last name. No parents or guardian. She’s on the run from a dangerous and secretive organization that will stop at nothing to track her down. And most astonishing of all: she’s a robot, a product of Eden Laboratories. When Eve discovers the truth, she realizes everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie. Eve manages to escape, fleeing the lab, the only home she’s ever known.
