Picks:

Lizard Prince Volume 2 – CMX has had a slue of short titles for all ages, and this is one of them.  In this final volume, Sienna and Canary are preparing for their wedding, but still troubles plague them.  First, Heath, Sienna’s younger brother, accidentally causes Sienna to lose all his memories, and it’s up to Canary to get them back.  Then, Sienna loses control of his transformation, and Canary may just have to marry a lizard.  The first volume of this series was cute and fun to read.  Canary is the kind of female lead I like, strong-willed and willing to take charge when needed.  This title is the perfect addition to any elementary or middle school library.

POP Wonderland Volume 3: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland – This third volume of the POP Wonderland series takes on a story that has been getting a lot of press lately.  This version of Alice in Wonderland is written for young readers.  Following a rabbit dressed in a jacket, holding a pocket watch, and running round on it’s hind legs crying "I’m late!", Alice is taken to a fantastic world where anything in possible.  This volume has all the familiar characters, such as the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, the Cheshire Cat, and of course the wicked Queen of Hearts.  Younger readers will love the story and readers of every age will appreciate the lush, pastel illustrations.
