  • State of Grace

    Hilary Badger

    Hardcover (Switch Press, Sept. 1, 2015)
    The trees are laden with fruit and the water in the lagoon is as clear as crystal. Wren's world is a utopia. If only she could stop the strange visions she's started having: flashes of another world, where there are people she doesn't know, couldn't possibly know, but who somehow feel familiar. What does Blaze, the most beautiful and mysterious of creations, know about what's going on in Wren's head? When she uncovers the lies that are propping up everything she has ever believed in, Wren must choose: remain in blissful ignorance or face the ugly truth?

  • Messy Hair

    Gretchen Grace

    Hardcover (Sock Monkey Press, Dec. 31, 2015)
    Two doll pals invite each other to a very proper tea party but their hair is just too messy. Brushing doesn't do the trick. What would work? They imagine other solutions visiting a birdbath or a car wash . . . and then - A-HA! the winner: a trip to the beauty parlor where hijinks ensue. In the end, freshly coiffed and very fancy, the dolls finally sit down to enjoy their tea party. Note from the author: In 2008, I was photographing old dolls using a medium-format camera. The dolls all had such soulful eyes, I was certain that they were trying to tell me their stories. I began prowling secondhand stores and stoop sales, collecting all kinds of dolls to photograph. The more expressive, the better; I particularly loved the ones that were no longer pristine, the ones that had been drawn on, or had their hair cut, or wore mismatched or handmade clothes. Growing up, I loved Dare Wright books, so I decided to re-interpret those photographic children s books for today's new readers. Messy Hair is the first of several photo-driven books to come.
