Thornhedge, by T. Kingfisher, read by Jennifer Blom, is a novella featuring Toadling, a side character in a twist on the Sleeping Beauty story. She's guarding a sleeping princess who should very much not be woken, despite what a curious and kind knight thinks. www.sonderbooks.com/Fiction/thor...
Cover of Thornhedge, by T. Kingfisher.  Includes the caption: "Not all curses should be broken."  Picture is a close-up of a bloody thorn, with a drip of blood on the end.  In the distance, there's a shadowy castle.

Jack Smith walked into the Senate, defended his prosecutions, rejected claims that his work was politically motivated, and refused to retreat under threats of prosecution. The hearing became a battle over evidence, power, accountability, and who gets to investigate whom. Smith for the WIN! #Pinks

The Bats on the Bus, by Alison Jackson, illustrated by Scott Magoon, is a ready-made storytime hit, with the classic song adjusted perfectly for Halloween. I bet you can't read it without singing along! Read my review: www.sonderbooks.com/Picture_Book...
