Hot Potato
They may not eat the yams on their dinner plates, but we're sure your kids will love Francine Prose's new tale Rhino, Rhino, Sweet Potato. Roy is a little boy growing up in a village where they eat nothing but sweet potatoes, until a rowdy herd of rhinos invades in search of some 'taters of their own. Roy must convince his neighbors to find a peaceful solution and live in harmony with the animals. Charming illustrations and a message of bravery and compassion will make this book a bedtime favorite.

Garp Who?
The World According to Your Child turns your little one's drawings and ideas into a professionally typeset hardcover book.

The kit comes with color markers, drawing sheets, and instructions on returning the materials for publishing; you'll get the final result just three weeks later. $30, I See Me.

A Long Strange Trip
Kolo's Essex travel book comes with two section inserts: photo-sleeve pages and lined journal pages. It's the perfect combo for recording a memorable trip, sure, but we love it even more as a hybrid baby book and brag book for the mom who wants a low-maintenance (no glue sticks, glitter pens, or photo corners!) record of baby's first months. $25, Kolo.

Plus, the book evokes the coziness of the bugs' texture-rich world through the mixture of a felted wool technique and an amalgam of appliqué, fabrics, and stitching. $10, Amazon.
