2025 CHILDREN'S BOOK COUNCIL HOT OFF THE PRESS PICK
A timely allegorical picture book about the very real dangers of book banning
Paige and her pals picked out teal books and red books and plum books and more—so many they spilled from the shelves to the floor. . . . But not everyone thought that this rainbow was grand—some wanted lime-colored books to be banned.
When a town bigwig and her cranky crew snatch all the lime-green books from the school library, Paige and her pals must defend their right to read.
With rollicking rhymes by Jan Zauzmer and colorful illustrations by Blanca Millán perfect for read-aloud fun, Down with Lime Books! takes young readers on an empowering adventure to banish the ban and save the books.
