ARLO & PIPS YR GN VOL 03 NEW KIDS IN FLOCK

In the grand finale of Elise Gravel’s graphic chapter book series that Kirkus called “a charming treasure,” Arlo the crow is going to be a dad!
Check out the third and final book in the new early graphic chapter book series starring Arlo the crow and Pips. This HarperAlley series has received two starred reviews for its blend of smart humor and crow facts as well as praise from Ben Clanton, creator of Narwhal and Jelly, who called it “fun and informative!”
Goodbye, bachelor life in the city, hello, family nest in the suburbs! After meeting Marla and deciding she was THE ONE, Arlo is ready to commit and start a family. After all, crows mate for life! But being a dad doesn’t mean Arlo is suddenly giving up his love for shiny things or showing off less. It just means he will have a new audience to impress and even teach! Parenting is tough even for a genius like Arlo. He and Marla will have their hands full with feeding and teaching their chicks how to fly, hunt, speak, and maybe dance a bit of ballet, but thankfully Uncle Pips is here to help. This final story has snappy dialogue paired with a limited color scheme that’s perfect.

Once upon a time, two unlikely friends became Swan Lake’s greatest heroes…Odette and Dillie are supposed to be enemies. Their kingdoms have been feuding since before they were born. But when the two princesses meet each other at the lake that separates their castles, it’s clear they were destined to be best friends. Odette-who lives with a curse that magically transforms her into a swan when the sun rises-is happy to find someone who treats her like everyone else. And Dillie has finally met someone who understands her dream of having an adventure instead of sitting on a throne. When they discover that Odette’s curse is the reason for tension between their families, they decide to follow an ancient legend that could lead them to someone who can set everything right. As they travel through enchanted lands, meet new allies, and fight terrible foes, Odette and Dillie are put to the ultimate test.
But when the time comes, will they choose their deepest wishes or the fragile fate of their world?
