Two side-by-side books on top of the Amicus Spring 2026 catalog. Both books are headed: "Key Concepts: STEM". On the left: A green book titled Biology: Plants, Microorganisms, and Fungi by Brown Bear Books, featuring a close-up photo of the veining in a leaf. On the right, a purple book titled Chemistry: Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry from Brown Bear Books, with a close up photo of a field of test tubes and a dropper plinking liquid into one.

Two books spread open, one at the top, one overlapped to the lower right, with the Amicus Spring 2026 catalog slightly overlapping the lower book on its lower left. The top book is Biology: Plants, Microorganisms, and Fungi; each page features two columns of text, with inset colored boxes featuring pictures and text; on the left is a box headed "Controlling Malaria" with an image of a mosquito. On the top right page, a box is headed "How Antibiotics Work" with a small text box and illustrations; on the bottom right is a box labeled "Science Words" with some bolded entries and regular formatted definitions.

On the lower right is Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry. The top of the left page is headed "Carbon Rings". Two columns of text top a close-up image of a bunch of packing peanuts, and the second column starts with a blue colored call-out box with text and diagrams of The Benzene Ring. The right page is topped by a large call-out box titled Bonds in Benzene and Delocalized Electrons, with diagrams and a blue text box. Beneath this large box, a column of text on the left and another, smaller call-out box on the right titled Arene Compounds, with a blue text box at the top and diagrams below.

Thank you @amicuspublishing.bsky.social for sharing these Key Concepts: STEM titles - they are a great combination of informative and accessible! Looking forward to getting this in front of my school's science teachers!

Simply Skye
This month's staff pick from Amicus editor, Becky!

"I love all of our books, but Simply Skye is a personal favorite. My oldest child is nonbinary, and grew up struggling with gender norms, like Avi in the story. This book was a labor of love and is a sweet story of acceptance."
