After choosing Everyday Bean as her book of the year last year, bookseller Jeannine could not be more excited about the next book in the Tiny Bean's Big Adventures series, by Stephanie Graegin. Here's what she has to say about Bean Supreme:

"More Tiny Bean is just what we all needed! More stories, more Grandma and most importantly more Clem. Bean is true to herself and that is why we love her so. Such a fun read aloud for both kids and grown-ups!"
