By Sonia Sotomayor. 2022
From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Just Ask! comes a fun and meaningful story about making…
the world—and your community—better, one action at a time, that asks the question: Who will you help today? Every night when Sonia goes to bed, Mami asks her the same question: How did you help today? And since Sonia wants to help her community, just like her Mami does, she always makes sure she has a good answer to Mami's question. In a story inspired by her own family's desire to help others, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor takes young listeners on a journey through a neighborhood where kids and adults, activists and bus drivers, friends and strangers all help one another to build a better world for themselves and their community. This audiobook shows how we can all help make the world a better place each and every day. Praise for Just Help! : "Generosity proves contagious in this personal portrait of community service by Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor." — Publishers WeeklyBy Bert Kitchen. 1995

Ever since they met in kindergarten, Max and Josie have been inseparable. Until the summer after fifth grade, when Josie disappears, leaving only a note, and whispering something about "whatnot rules." But why would Max ever think that Josie wasn't real? And what are whatnots? As Max sets to uncover what happened to Josie--and what she is or isn't--little does he know that she's fighting to find him again, too. But there are forces trying to keep Max and Josie from ever seeing each other again. Because Josie wasn't supposed to be real." -- Provided by publisherBy Eric Litwin. 2018
