LITTLE CAESAR - Amy Tierney

Born to a world where conformity rules, Little Caesar tells the story of a lamb who defies social expectations and embarks on a quest for acceptance. Caesar is shunned by his family and rejected by other animals. Determined to find his place, Caesar sets out on an adventure filled with tender humorous encounters. From a stubborn herd of cows to a judgmental shopkeeper, each meeting leaves him feeling dejected. Tired and on the precipice of defeat, Little Caesar puts his life in the hands of wiley wolf, unsure of how it will all play out.

FIRST FLIGHT - Adrian Jaffé

Three baby birds, one big challenge—their first flight! But as the frogs begin their peculiar performance, the sky turns into a whirlwind of improvisation— some birds twirl, some hover, and others just hope for the best.

BIRDS OF PARADISE - Tomek Ducki

In a delicate community built on bird droppings, a mysterious object sparks a revolution. Progress comes at a surprising cost.

MONSTER - Eric Glessmann

A monster desperately trying to blend in with humans hides behind a human disguise, but is forced to confront the truth about itself when a visit to a public swimming pool leads to a dramatic revelation of its identity.

JUST IMAGINE - Karolis Kveselis

Olivia is a girl with unlimited imagination, and Joseph is a lonely modern child who, by virtue of his overweight, keeps himself away from his peers and dives into the virtual world of a smartphones.

GLITCH - Bonnie Dempsey

A comedy adventure story for young children about an isolated girl who spends every day staring at her tablet. But when the girl next door gets taken over by a friendly alien, she goes on an adventure and discovers the thrills, fun and wonder that the real world has to offer.
