​ Take a look at what's new in the library.....   **I Want My Hat Back** by John Klassen The bear's hat is gone, and he wants it back. Patiently and politely, he asks the animals he comes across, one by one, whether they have seen it. Each animal says no, some more elaborately than others. But just as the bear begins to depart, a deer comes by and asks a simple question that sparks the bear's memory and renews his search with a vengeance. --- Amazon ** Neville by Norton Juster ** This is a simply told story about a boy who moves to a new neighborhood and finds a unique way to make friends. -- Follett

In this Strange Case of Origami Yoda sequel, Dwight's (debatably) wise finger puppet, Yoda, pushes enough of Harvey's buttons that he creates Darth Paper. This results in Dwight almost being sent to remedial school. Narrator Tommy submits a case study to the school board in Dwight's defense filled with sketches, annotations, and anecdotes by classmates, which adds to the goofy, eye-pleasing fun. -- Follett **Ellray Jakes is not a Chicken!** by Sally Warner  Eight-year-old EllRay Jakes's attempts to defend himself against the class bully always end up getting him in trouble, but he promises to do his best when his dad offers to take him to Disneyland if he can be good for an entire week--which may be a few days too long. -- Follett
