PICTURE BOOK
The Problem with Pajamas by Lauren Stohler (02/22/22)
Pajamas are the worst! They zap you! They trap you! They scritch and they scratch you! And then, when you think it can’t get any worse, they make your feet sweat. Cody has had enough of wrinkly socks, itchy sweaters, and too-tight pants, so she’s definitely not going to wear PJs to bed. But Dad has a soft, snuggly plan that just might help Cody realize some pajamas aren’t so awful after all.
BEGINNING READER
Nothing Fits a Dinosaur by Jonathan Fenske (08/31/21)
After being told no drama and to put on his pajamas, the dinosaur is unimpressed and romps around the house undressed since human clothes are much too small for such a mighty dinosaur.
NOVEL
Finn and the Time-Traveling Pajamas by Michael Buckley (03/22/22)
When Finn is saved from the Time Rangers by an older version of himself, it comes with a catch. Old Man Finn needs Finn and his friends, Lincoln and Julep, to help him win battles he lost years ago against the Paradox, a terrible creatures obsessed with revenge against Finn's father. If they succeed, he promises to tell Finn where his father is. He even gives them a pair of time-traveling pajamas to help them with their quest. There's only one problem. The pajamas malfunction almost immediately. Along the way the kids avoid being eaten by sabretooths, shot by revolutionary war soldiers, and start a war with a town full of holograms, all in an effort to fix the jammies. Just when their goal is in sight, Julep gets sick. Only...it doesn't seem like she's sick. It seems like she's changing. The adventure may cost Finn more than an old pair of pajamas--it may cost him his friends!
