The hoppers take us away on the magical uni-carriage to South Korea, where we meet Goomi. Goomi is multi racial herself and the inspiration for Hop Around-she is Shvona’s daughter.

Take a large group of kids in puberty, send them to a new school, and add a generous dose of tests, homework, and hormones, not to mention diverse personalities, bland food, and unpleasant odors. That’s middle school, and it can be a little . . . weird. Yes, there are cool things about middle school, like more independence, new friends, and new activities. But there’s baffling stuff too, like harsh judgment, the whole “popularity” thing, and, of course, drama. With insights from hundreds of students, this guidebook explores the halls of middle school, especially the odd behaviors that lurk in the shadows. Slip on your lab coats, because we’re going to dissect these behaviors one by one to understand what’s really going on. With fun illustrations and choose-your-own-adventure-style scenarios, Middle School—Safety Goggles Advised will help you deal with the drama and define who you are and how to navigate life when things get, well, weird.
It’s the clawsomest time of year: summer vacation! All Marvin and his friends want is to enjoy their turf—the park across the street—and play superheroes to their hearts’ content. But when bullies arise, so does conflict. Suddenly, a power struggle erupts over playground dibs. It’s Marvin and his band of Super Scarers versus Drake the Dreadful and his too-cool-for-school henchmen!
But the monsters discover that bullying isn’t always black and white, good guys and bad guys. By using tools such as ST4 and a circular role-playing game, Marvin and his friends discover that defeating bullying doesn’t always mean defeating bullies. In fact, with a little help from your friends, anyone can rise to the occasion. Marvin’s hilarious doodles and diary entries chronicle his delightful adventures, misadventures, and eventual triumph in a funny, relatable way. It’s the one series on ADHD and associated issues that kids will actually want to read!

An interactive children's educational book teaching left and right through engaging activities and a forest adventure.
Determining which side is right and which is left can be confusing for children, and even for adults. In My Left Right Book, children will learn their left from their right by taking a short walk in the forest. This interactive book involves the reader in the story, asking questions like "Is the bear on the right page, or the left page? And what about the squirrel?" These questions help engage the child and make the learning process more enjoyable and memorable.
After the children learn their left and right, a fun game begins. The book challenges them with entertaining tasks, enhancing their understanding through playful activities. This method ensures that the learning experience is both effective and delightful. The story, combined with interactive elements, provides a comprehensive approach to mastering these essential skills.
