Summer may be in full swing, but it's never too early to start building excitement for reading and learning.

This season's newest children's releases offer plenty of opportunities for young readers to explore big ideas through colorful illustrations, playful storytelling, and a healthy dose of imagination.

Future builders can dream big with Who's Building? by Katrina Moore, while mythology-loving families can introduce little readers to legendary gods and heroes through ABCs of Greek Myth.  

Budding artists may find themselves laughing their way through But Art Is Awful, a charming reminder that creativity doesn't always begin with appreciation. 

Dinosaur fans have plenty to roar about thanks to 5-Minute Dinosaur Stories, a collection of quick adventures perfect for bedtime reading. When back-to-school season approaches, 100 Things I Love About School offers a refreshing look at the small moments that make classrooms special, while Rosie Gets Ready turns an everyday morning routine into a delightful adventure for younger readers.

And for families dreaming of city lights and future travels, ABC NYC takes readers on a photographic alphabet tour through one of the world's most iconic cities. 

Whether you're looking for a summer read-aloud, a classroom addition, or a way to encourage a love of books before the school year begins, these new releases prove that learning can be every bit as fun as summer vacation. Happy Reading!
