Kitty Sweet Tooth Makes a Movie
In this sequel to an adorable and silly graphic novel for young readers, Kitty Sweet Tooth gets behind the camera and makes her own movie!
There’s just one thing Kitty Sweet Tooth loves more than going to the movies, and that’s eating delicious desserts. She’s combined her two passions in the Taste-O-Rama, a movie house where screenings are paired with tasty treats. But Kitty isn’t satisfied just watching movies. She wants to make one!
With a film crew that includes Dr. Battina and Walter Witch, Kitty embarks on a quest. Her mission: to find the world’s rarest and tastiest ingredients and capture it all on film. Will Kitty and her friends make the documentary of a lifetime, or will this film be a flop?

Prunella and the Cursed Skull Ring
From Time Museum creator Matt Loux comes a sweet and gently macabre graphic novel for young readers.
There are whispers around the village that monsters are lurking outside the gates. Prunella doesn’t pay this talk much mind—until she unearths a strange skull-shaped ring in her garden. When she places it on her finger she’s transformed into a skeleton girl, terrifying her monster-fearing town! Exiled, Prunella wanders the wilderness, where she discovers that monsters aren’t as bad as she’s been led to believe.
With her new friends, undead pirate Captain Rip Skeleton and Francis, a floating, fiery skull, at her side, Prunella is sure to find a way to reverse this curse…but does she really want to?
