Picture Book Summit Superstar Book Bundle Giveaway 2024!

A BIG MOONCAKE FOR LITTLE STAR written & illustrated by Grace Lin

This gorgeous picture book by Grace Lin is a Caldecott Honor Book and it’s easy to see why! It tells a whimsical origin story of the phases of the moon through a modern fable.

Little Star’s soft feet tiptoed to the Big Mooncake.

Little Star loves the delicious Mooncake that she bakes with her mama. But she’s not supposed to eat any yet! What happens when she can’t resist a nibble?

In this stunning picture book that shines as bright as the stars in the sky, Grace creates a heartwarming original story that explains phases of the moon.

ONCE UPON A BOOK written by Kate Messner and illustrated by Grace Lin

In ONCE UPON A BOOK, Grace Lin partners with bestselling author Kate Messner to bring to life a modern folktale about the joy of reading.

Once upon a time, there was a girl. She went to a place alive with colors, where even the morning dew was warm.

Alice loves to imagine herself in the magical pages of her favorite book. So when it flaps its pages and invites her in, she is swept away to a world of wonder and adventure, riding camels in the desert, swimming under the sea with colorful fish, floating in outer space, and more! But when her imaginative journey comes to an end, she yearns for the place she loves best of all.

Paired with vibrant illustrations, this lyrical, expressive story invites the reader to savor each page and indulge in the power of imagination.

A BIG BED FOR LITTLE SNOW written & illustrated by Grace Lin

A BIG BED FOR LITTLE SNOW is a companion picture book to the Caldecott Honor book A BIG MOONCAKE FOR LITTLE STAR. This picture book from Grace Lin is a heartwarming and tender picture book introducing readers to their first snow.

When it was quiet, Little Snow grinned and then jumped, jumped, jumped!

Little Snow loves the new big, soft bed Mommy made him for the long, cold winter nights. But Mommy says this bed is for sleeping, not jumping! What happens when he can’t resist jump, jump, jumping on his new fluffy, bouncy bed?

Grace artfully introduces young readers to their first snow through striking illustrations and heartwarming moments.
