A Day So Gray

Once you start to notice, colors and reasons for gratitude are everywhere, and that changes everything! Celebrate the hues and comforts of a cozy winter day as a discontented girl at first notices only dull grays and browns in a snowy landscape but is coaxed by her friend to look more closely. Soon she finds orange berries, blue water, purple shadows, and more. Warm friendship and a fresh way of seeing things transform a snow-covered landscape from bleak to beautiful!  The story highlights how even on a gray winter day there is still so much color to be found in the landscape.

Max and Marla

Two fearless Olympians sled to victory in this delightful new picture book Max and Marla are best friends and aspiring Olympians with their eyes on the prize. They know exactly what it'll take to reach sledding success: preparation, practice, and perseverance. So, when rusty blades, strong winds, and difficult slopes get in their way, Max and Marla realize true joy lies not in winning but in friendship. Obstacles turn into victories. With delightful illustrations and charming text, Alexandra Boiger brings to life the story of two unstoppable pals--true Olympians who never give up.
