Stuff I Got with My Budget

I almost forgot: I added several new titles to the shelves last week! I also replaced a few titles, generally the usual suspects.

The replacements: How Come I'm Always Luigi? (Foxtrot), The 3rd Garfield Treasury, Pokemon: Giratina and the Sky Warrior, and the Garfield Fat Cat 3-Pack Vol. 2.

The new stuff: Amelia Rules 5: The Tweenage Guide to Not Being Unpopular by Jimmy Gownley (9781416986102) I love Amelia. This one had me laughing out loud while skimming it in spots, and then going, "yeah, I've been there" in others. I had to pass it to a co-working before processing, since she's also an Amelia fan.

Fairy Idol Kanon 2 and Fairy Idol Kanon 3 by Mera Hakamada (9781897376904 and 9781897376911) More manga for young readers by Udon Kids. It's not a manga that I'd read for fun (Chibi Vampire is about as shojo/girlie as I can stand) but it's not bad. I know if I gave it to my girls, they'd love it. Fairy Idol 1 is still on backorder.

Ninja Baseball Kyuma 1 and Ninja Baseball Kyuma 2 by Shunshin Maeda (9781897376867 and 9781897376874). This is another Udon Kids title. I should probably read it, since it more of a "boy" title, and might therefore hold my attention (yes, my preferences are showing). However, the day I was dealing with this box of stuff, I forgot and sent it straight to the processing pile.

Stone Rabbit 4: Superhero Stampede by Eric Craddock (9780375858772). I didn't really read this one, since I've read and enjoyed the other Stone Rabbit books.

Edit: I forgot I also got Happy Happy Clover 3 in that shipment. A patron requested it, and the other two are always out, so it's a good thing.

Also, today I got The Adventures of Daniel Boom aka Loud Boy: Grow Up! by D.J. Steinberg (978-0-448-44701-8) It looks fun, nice and irreverent without talking down. So much nicer than Stone Arch "lo-hi" books. I'm going to have to make sure we have the other Daniel Boom titles.

  1. Hi! I work with UDON and and wanted to see if I could help about the backorder on FAIRY IDOL KANON 1. As far as I know, it should be available through all our distributors! If you want to contact me with some details, I can try to follow up and make sure you get a copy. My email is stacykingATudonentertainment.com
