Skippyjon Jones, Class Action

by Judy Schachner

skippyjon 

Skippyjon wants to go to school, but his mom tells him that school is only for dogs!  Well, that doesn't stop Skippyjon from letting his imagination take him to dog school. There he meets other pups and learns all sorts of amazing dog tricks. But when a bully threatens the little pups, Skippyjon steps in to save the day. Another great adventure with the kitten who thinks he's a dog. Ages 3-8 ($17.99)

The Detention Club

by David Yoo

 

detention club 

   

Peter, and his best friend Drew, were super cool in elementary school. But everything that made them cool there, makes them losers in middle school. Even worse, now there are bullies who have picked Peter and Drew as their prime targets. Peter has big plans about resurrecting their popularity. When Peter winds up with a month of detentions, he finds himself sitting right next to the bullies . . . who turn out to be not so bad. Peter and  Drew's crazy plots and hilarious hijinks will have readers in stitches. The popularity battle ground of sixth grade has never been so funny. Ages 9-14 ($16.99)
