Carolrhoda Books Releases Six New Titles, Including Captivating Picture Books and Gripping Middle-Grade Novels


This spring, join a young pirate in his swashbuckling adventures, follow a boy's journey of self-expression through art, meet a persnickety queen, laugh alongside a family of hyenas, and more in six new titles from Carolrhoda Books, a division of Lerner Publishing Group.

Bob Raczka depicts a young boy developing self-expression through art in his new picture book, Niko Draws a Feeling. Captivating illustrations by Simone Shin show how Niko loves drawing his world: the ring-a-ling of an ice cream truck, the warmth of the sun. This tender story explores the creative process, friendship, and the universal desire to feel understood.

Kate Hosford and Gabi Swiatkowska, creators of New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book selection Infinity and Me, present How the Queen Found the Perfect Cup of Tea, a story of friendship and discovery. When the queen grows dissatisfied with her brew, she and her butler set out in search of the perfect cup of tea in this imaginative picture book. On her journey, the queen encounters new friends who expand her horizons-in the kitchen and beyond.

The Bolds, everyone's favorite family of hyenas living in suburban London, are back in The Bolds to the Rescue b British comedian Julian Clary. The Bolds have become legendary in the animal kingdom. Soon their house is full of visitors who want to pass as humans, too. Can they teach these critters to survive in the human world? Coupled with David Roberts's hilarious illustrations, this chapter book will delight and entertain young readers!



Quinnie Boyd is back on the case in Vampires on the Run: A Quinnie Boyd Mystery, sequel to The Maypop Kidnapping by C. M. Surrisi. Just when things seem to be settling down for Quinnie Boyd, she must don her detective hat again when two mysterious and potentially dangerous writers arrive in town. Ceil and Edgar dress in black and won't go near the sunlight. Could they be vampires?

The second installment in Julian Sedgwick's middle-grade Mysterium series, #2 The Palace of Memory, brings readers back into the life and adventures of Danny Woo. When Danny learns that the Mysterium-the circus his parents ran before they died-is re-forming in Barcelona, he rushes to join his old friends. Will he finally learn the truth about his parents' suspicious deaths? Fast-paced chapters and illustrations by Patricia Moffett will definitely keep kids turning the pages.


Matt Myklusch brings readers back into the swashbuckling world of Dean Seaborne in Strangers in Atlantis, the sequel to The Lost Prince. In this new piratical adventure, Dean wants to leave the life of pirating behind, but agrees to do one last job. He must rob a resort for rich nobles. But when he arrives, he discovers a gateway to Atlantis-where a civil war is brewing.
