A goofy new puppy rocks the world of a high-strung dog and a snarky cat in this hilarious graphic novel for early readers. Crackers is a rescue dog who's a bit on the nervous side, but pretty comfy at home with Butter, a very plump cat who--like all cats--is all about himself. The two pets have a good life: big backyard, nice couch, good eats, and an owner who goes to work every day so they can pretty much do what they want. Enter Peanut, a brand-new puppy with big floppy ears, unabashed energy, and no appreciation for the quiet life. The little dog is a chowhound who dips into everybody's food bowl. He drools, he chews up stuff, he doesn't get how stairs work, and he's afraid of the dark. Yowl! Not to mention he's hogging their owner's lap. Even the squirrels in the yard are laughing at this goofy little canine. Butter and Crackers have had it! This puppy has to go! But when the backyard gate is left open (the cat's idea, of course!) and Peanut wanders out and gets lost, the older animals remember what it was like to be alone--and lonely. Butter and Crackers to the rescue! Kids will laugh-out-loud at Paige Braddock's funny, endearing art and dialogue. (She also cleverly never shows "our human," the animals' owner, as anything more than a pair of hands or unintelligble speech balloons.) This is a wonderful story about friendship and acceptance, with the funniest combination of pets to ever hit the page.

Peanut Butter Memoirs: A (Sometimes) Satirical Story A (Sometimes) Cynical Story But (Always) a Human Story of the Journey to Becoming a Law Enforcement Officer in (Very) Rural Maine By: David Wilson So, the question remains, are police officers real people? Are they all born to be cops? Do they skip childhood and go straight into a blue uniform? Do they have families and friends? Do they make mistakes and some bad decisions along the way just like everyone else does? Do they choose plain glazed when the obvious choice is jelly cream-filled? The truth, my friends, is they’re real people just like you. Peanut Butter Memoirs is a true story about one person’s journey into becoming a law enforcement officer in northern Maine. It’s funny, sad, serious and real. Along the journey, author David Wilson experiences life and the unique people around him. He discovers that we’re not all born to be cops, and, in fact, for Wilson, it wasn’t his first career choice at all. The tales Wilson tells will show that whether the call for service was routinely mundane or life threatening, there’s a story in there somewhere with unique human characters answering the calls for service. The book is a true account, at times humorous and at times candidly serious, of one person’s personal journey. What you’ll discover by reading this book is that we’re all different, we’re all the same, we’re all human, and that police officers, rural or urban, are real people.

Fly-by-the-seat-of-her-pants mom Jennifer Magnuson knew her spoiled suburban brood needed a wake-up call—she just couldn’t find the time to fit one in. But when her husband was offered a position in India, she saw it for what it was: the perfect opportunity for her family to unplug from their over-scheduled and pampered lives in Nashville and gain some much-needed perspective. What she didn’t realize was how much their time in India would transform her as well. A combination of Eat, Pray, Love and Modern Family, with a dash of Chelsea Handler thrown in for good measure, Peanut Butter and Naan is Magnuson’s hilarious look at the chaos of parenting against a backdrop of malaria, extreme poverty, and no conveniences of any kind—and her story of rediscovering herself and revitalizing her connection with those she loves the most. In India, after years of parenting under a cloud of anxiety, Magnuson found a renewed sense of adventure and fearlessness (a discovery that was totally worth the many months of hiding anti-malarial medication in her kids’ morning oatmeal), and started to become the mother she’d always hoped to be. Hers is a story about motherhood that will not only make you laugh and nod with recognition—it will inspire you to fall in love with your own family all over again.

Along with these new combinations, the author also lists some familiar old ones, such as the plain peanut butter sandwich that he grew up on.

Sadie has the perfect plan to snag some friends when she transfers to Plainfield High—pretend to have a peanut allergy. But what happens when you have to hand in that student health form your unsuspecting mom was supposed to fill out? And what if your new friends want to come over and your mom serves them snacks?
