We're happy to welcome back Charlene Chua , who has illustrated the brand new book Julie Black Belt: The Belt of Fire.

This is the long-awaited sequel to Julie Black Belt: The Kung Fu Chronicles.

Julie is gunning for her next belt - orange! But will a new kid in class derail her focus? It's just like that movie where Julie's favorite actress Brandy Wu tried to acquire the mythic Belt of Fire!

Award for Scariest Thing!

I'm the Scariest Thing in the Jungle! is a Finalist for the 2014 Bull-Bransom Award. This is the third storybook by David Derrick (www.DaveDerrick.com), an veteran animator at DreamWorks who is now at Disney.

The National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming sponsors the Bull-Bransom Award competition for best children’s book illustrations with a wildlife or nature focus. Created in 2010 by the National Museum of Wildlife Art in the tradition of such prestigious children’s book illustrator honors as the Caldecott, Coretta Scott King and Hans Christian Andersen awards, the Bull-Bransom Award is named for Charles Livingston Bull and Paul Bransom, among the first American artist-illustrators to specialize in wildlife subjects.

Dave's first tale was the funny Sid the Squid. Then last year, he penned Animals Don't, So I Won't!
