The Butler Bookshelf has four new children’s fiction books this week and two new picture books. This week on the Butler Bookshelf you will find All the Small Wonderful Things. Alex is an eleven year-old boy with Autism who dreads starting middle school because change is especially difficult for him. He thinks that having a friend by his side on the first day of school will make the transition bearable. To meet new friends, Alex decides to enter into the PAWS Dog Show with his cockapoo, Kevin, so that he can win a trophy and impress the kids at school. In the end, Alex finds friendship in the least expected places–in the small things. For more amazing titles, check out the list below!
