    With Mother’s Day (and my birthday!) just past and Father’s Day coming soon, this issue of Notes features books about families in various configurations and with differing experiences…some supernatural! (Librarians with Superpowers, anyone?) Find more at our Family Reading blog, where Summer Reading also lives... Illustration: Liza Woodruff.

    Anything (Chronicle, 4–8 years) is an introspective, sensitively conveyed picture book about a dad helping a child through difficult transitions in a new apartment. The ambiguity in Rebecca Stead’s (2010 Newbery Medalist for When You Reach Me) text, accompanied by Gracey Zhang’s spare illustrations, leaves room for readers to imagine what changes the characters might be dealing with. For more books about parents, see also our list "Parents and Children" in this issue of Notes. 1.
