ABOUT THE BOOKS
Pega Sisters Go to Camp
Written by Brooke Hartman
Illustrated by MacKenzie Haley
Ages 4-8 | 32 Pages
Publisher: Page Street Kids | ISBN-13: 9781645674719
Publisher’s Synopsis: Lilly has waited for this day all year: It’s Pegasus Camp! And it’s finally here!
But this year, Lilly’s little sister, Filly, is tagging along. And wherever Lilly goes, Filly’s right underhoof, turning rainbow leaping, mane braiding, and cake baking into crashing, tangling, splattering messes! When Lilly’s temper finally snaps, Filly canters sadly away. Lilly wanted her Pega Sister to go―so why can she no longer have any fun without her?
Anyone with siblings will knowingly smile and roll their eyes, and all readers will laugh along with this rollicking, punny summer camp romp, which also serves as a sparkling reminder that sisters make the most marvelous magic together.
The Littlest Airplane
Written by Brooke Hartman
Illustrated by John Joesph
Ages 4-7 | 32 Pages
Publisher: Alaska Northwest Books | ISBN-13: 9781513128641
Publisher’s Synopsis: A rhyming picture book about how sometimes it’s not the biggest, strongest, or the fastest, but the littlest who can get the job done!
“Alaska Northwest Books wings into spring with… The Littlest Airplane by Brooke Hartman, illus. by John Joseph, in which a storm necessitates calling a mighty little bush plane to rescue people stuck on a mountain in the snow.” —Publishers Weekly, Spring 2022 Children’s Sneak Previews
At a landing strip in the far north, a little bush plane watches quietly as bigger, stronger, faster planes take off for adventure. But when a storm hits and hikers are stranded on the mountain, who will come to the rescue?
Told in rhyming verse with bright illustrations, The Littlest Airplane soars high with heart and excitement.

MY REVIEW
There’s nothing more charming than a classic children’s picture book! These books always have wonderful writing and illustrations that have IT! The Littlest Airplane definitely is headed for the status of classic, because it has both adorable writing and illustrations.
The Littlest Airplane is written by an award-winning author who has lots of personal experience flying in a bush plane, just like the Littlest Airplane. This is a story of an airplane hanger in the far north and the different planes that take off and land there.
The planes include the: turboprop, cargo, jet, and bush plane. Each plane brags about how great they are, except for the bush plane. He’s very humble and doesn’t think that he can measure up. Then, a very big storm comes and leaves people stranded in a small clearing. The turboprop, cargo, and jet all have too many reasons why they can’t land in a small space. So, now it’s the bush plane’s chance to do something wonderful.
This is a book you’ll want to buy for your child or grandchild, because they will want you to read it to them again and again.
