Here are just a few of the titles that Twitter is buzzing about this month:

PIE IN THE SKY by @Remy_Lai @MacKidsBooks is a NEW FAVORITE. I'm booktalking it next week to 4th graders and it was my one MUST-TALK title. Prose/cartoon hybrid, it's the story of a boy immigrating to Australia and baking fancy cakes. #ewgcya pic.twitter.com/GBGbpeLq96
