Written by: Nari Hong
Illustrated by: Nari Hong
Recommended Age: 4 - 8

A young girl and her dad love spending time together... but sometimes, he regrets how much he can't do. He uses a wheelchair to get around, and that means he can't join her on the ice when she skates, or splash in puddles with her when it rains. But she reminds him that they still spend plenty of time together, ice fishing, making sandcastles, or drinking hot cocoa — and even if he can't skate with her, he's always there to lace up her skates when she needs him! This sweet autobiographical story is a lovely reminder that there are many ways to spend time together.

Strong as Stone

Written by: Christopher Browne
Illustrated by: Christopher Browne
Recommended Age: 4 - 8

A little girl named Stone lives with her loving father in a prehistoric landscape, surrounded by mastodons, bison, and other more mysterious, dangerous beasts. But when her father falls sick, the only cure is a healing flower far in the wilderness, in a cave guarded by ferocious bears — and no one else is willing to risk the journey. Stone sets off alone, but she's not sure if she can be strong enough to succeed. Fortunately, it turns out that there are many kinds of strength — including the knowledge of when to be kind — and Stone's sense of empathy is what helps her reach her goal and save her father. This tender story, with its vibrant illustrations of the creatures Stone must face, is a sweet father-daughter tale about the power of compassion.

When We Fly

Written by: Jess McGeachin
Illustrated by: Jess McGeachin
Recommended Age: 4 - 8

Lucy loves to tinker and fix things, from broken watches to Dad's old binoculars, and that's even more important now that it's just the two of them and he could use the extra help. When she finds a sparrow with a broken wing, she names him Flap and sets her sights on helping him fly again — even though Dad warns her gently that not everything broken can be fixed. Lucy's attempts at inventing a sparrow-powered airplane are ambitious but unsuccessful, and that's when she realizes the painful truth... but also learns that she can rely on the people around her to support her as she grieves. A quiet story, with subtle hints in the illustrations about how Lucy and Dad are still mourning for her mother, make this a powerful book about loss and love.

What We'll Build: Plans For Our Together Future

Written by: Oliver Jeffers
Illustrated by: Oliver Jeffers
Recommended Age: 4 - 8

A father and a daughter meet to build together. Although she is much smaller than him, he knows she is up to the task! They start with a house, "a place to stay when all is lost,/ to keep the things we love the most." Then they build more fantastical things: a road to the moon, a fortress to repel "enemies," and then, when they see their fortress is keeping out potential friends, too, gates to open wide to welcome them in. Most importantly, they are building a future together. World-renowned author/illustrator Oliver Jeffers created this companion to his best-selling book Here We Are as a tribute to the love between parent and child and the endless possibilities of our lives.

From the Tops of the Trees

Written by: Kao Kalia Yang
Illustrated by: Rachel Wada
Recommended Age: 5 - 8

4-year-old Kalia has never known life outside the Ban Vinai Refugee Camp in Thailand, where she and thousands of other Hmong people live after escaping Laos' Secret War. Although Kalia and her cousins play like any children, she recognizes the hardship her family faces in the camp, and the fear everyone has of moving beyond it: "They are scared to return to the old country. They are scared to go to a new country." Finally, when she asks her father what things are like outside the camp, he helps her climb the tallest tree, so she can see the world beyond — and imagine the potential for a better life. Based on the author's real experience as a child, this stunning and poignant story is a celebration of resilience, hope, and a father's love.
