Today’s shout out is for some very fun books that either just came out, or are coming out next week! #KidLit fans, these are for you.

The latest in the MJ and Friends series by award-winning author Hana Rogers came out earlier this month. It’s called MJ and the Dream and it’s all about MJ learning that screen time is not all it’s cracked up to be, when he wakes up one morning to discover that his head has magically turned into a tablet.

Jaclyn Friedlander just released book three in her Friends with Fins series, called Goodnight Midnight Ocean. She also does a really cool video series where she talks about ocean conservation and different underwater creatures.

Last, but certainly not least we have Jason Porath, the creator of Rejected Princesses. He has his first book coming out on the 25th of this month. As a fellow historian of women, I love his work and cannot wait to read about the 100 women whose stories are just a little too risqué and/or badass to ever make the princess story cut. You can pre-order yours now.
