New Releases by Ann Cameron

Je m''appelle Juan et j''habite dans les montagnes du Guatemala. Mon père et ma mère ne peuvent pas s''occuper de moi, alors je vis chez ma grand-mère avec beaucoup d''autres cousins. Ma grand-mère m''a appris à cirer des chaussures et je me suis installé à côté de l''Office du Tourisme de San Pablo. C''est amusant de travailler mais je me demande comment ça ferait d''aller à l''école avec les autres ? Un livre pour les enfants qui aiment déjà lire tout seuls.

When Julian finds out that his dad has always wanted snakes for a birthday present, he realizes he''ll need more than good intentions--he''ll need courage.

Un recueil de six courts récits mettant en vedette Julien et son monde: sa famille, son jardin, sa dent, son amie. Des textes simples, agréables, empreints de réalisme, d''humour et de sensibilité.

Ann Cameron''s beloved and bestselling chapter book series about Julian, his brother Huey, and his friend Gloria all begins right here! Julian has a big imagination. And he is great at telling stories. He can make people—especially his younger brother, Huey—believe just about anything. Like the story about the cats that come in the mail. Or the fig leaves that make you grow tall if you eat them off the tree. But some stories can lead to a heap of trouble, and that''s exactly where Julian and Huey end up! This book has been selected as a Common Core State Standards Text Exemplar (Grades 2–3, Stories) in Appendix B. "You have to go a long way these days to find a book that leaves you feeling as happy as this one." —The New York Times "There''s a glow here that''s hard to resist." —Booklist

Bestselling classic The Stories Julian Tells is just the beginning! Get ready for more of Julian''s wonderful family and imagination in the Julian''s World chapter book series! Secret agents Julian, Huey, and Gloria are already heroes. They have rescued a dog and saved a toddler from drowning. But what they really want is to nab a real-live bank robber. Just when it looks like they might catch the crook, the police chief steps in. The supersleuths find that they''re the ones who are in trouble—with a capital T! "The humor is effective and the action nonstop." —The Bulletin "A quick and interesting read . . . the plot is well developed, and the characters are aptly drawn." —School Library Journal

A monster who is afraid of little people discovers they are even more afraid of him.
