The only rule in Larry's book is that the reader not push the button, but when no one is looking, it may be irresistible.

There are few books that I am so enamoured by in the children's book world that I will actually get the e-arc version (because typically e-arcs and children's books don't tend to play nicely together.  I think that the reverse psychology that is used in Don't Push the Button worked so well that it got me to request this book!

Don't Push the Button follows the idea of past books like The Monster at the End of this Book, the Pigeon series, and other books that break the third wall in kids books.  I love books that interact with the child- and man, can I tell you, little kids go gaga over books that interact with them.  The images are adorable (and do I spy a hint of japanese anime/ manga influence?) and the book is so simple.

I absolutely know that this book is going to be on my son's Christmas list (and I don't say that lightly- have you SEEN how expensive kids books are?)  This is a book you won't want to miss and you will LOVE reading with your child!

The Child Finder By  Rene Denfeld Published: September 5th 2017 Published by: Harper Source: Purchased Three years ago, Madison Culver disappeared when her family was choosing a Christmas tree in Oregon’s Skookum National Forest. She would be eight years old now—if she has survived. Desperate to find their beloved daughter, certain someone took her, the Culvers turn to Naomi, a private investigator with an uncanny talent for locating the lost and missing. Known to the police and a select group of parents as The Child Finder, Naomi is their last hope.

Aru Shah and the End of Time By  Roshani Chokshi Published on March 27th 2018 Published by: Disney/Rick Riordan Presents Source: Publisher Twelve-year-old Aru Shah has a tendency to stretch the truth in order to fit in at school. While her classmates are jetting off to family vacations in exotic locales, she'll be spending her autumn break at home, in the Museum of Ancient Indian Art and Culture, waiting for her mom to return from their latest archaeological trip. Is it any wonder that Aru makes up stories about being royalty, traveling to Paris, and having a chauffeur? One day, three schoolmates show up at Aru's doorstep to catch her in a lie. They don't believe her claim that the museum's Lamp of Bharata is cursed, and they dare Aru to prove it. Just a quick light, Aru thinks. Then she can get herself out of this mess and never ever fib again. But lighting the lamp has dire consequences. She unwittingly frees the Sleeper, an ancient demon whose duty it i
