Bring home the vibrant Croton Banana (Codiaeum Variegatum 'Banana')—a houseplant celebrated for its elongated, banana-shaped leaves adorned with hues of bright yellow, lime green, and occasional flecks of orange. This bold and striking plant is perfect for adding an exotic touch to your indoor jungle or workspace. To ensure your Croton Banana thrives, we’ve paired it with our Premium Houseplant Soil, specially formulated for optimal drainage, aeration, and nutrient retention. This all-in-one combo takes the guesswork out of plant care! Treat yourself or surprise a fellow plant lover with this vibrant and practical Croton Banana + Houseplant Soil combo.- Our soil mix is tailored to provide the perfect balance of drainage, aeration, and moisture retention that cacti and succulents require. These plants are adapted to arid environments and need well-drained soil to prevent root rot and other moisture-related issues. Our blend includes Coarse Perlite, which ensures superior drainage and aeration, allowing roots to breathe and grow without being waterlogged.
- Light Requirements: The Croton Banana thrives in bright, indirect light, which helps maintain its vivid coloration. While it can tolerate partial shade, insufficient light may lead to muted leaf tones. Place near a sunny window with filtered light for optimal growth.
- Watering Frequency: This plant prefers a consistent watering schedule, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering should be avoided, as it can lead to root issues. In drier climates, occasional misting can help maintain humidity.
- Physical Characteristics: Known for its unique banana-shaped leaves, this plant’s foliage showcases a glossy finish and a vibrant mix of green, yellow, and gold hues. Its compact, upright growth habit makes it ideal for tabletops or as a floor plant in smaller spaces.
- Temperature Tolerance: This tropical beauty thrives in warm, humid environments with temperatures between 60-85°F. Protect it from drafts or sudden temperature changes, as it prefers a stable climate to maintain its lush appearance.

which is my favorite place to shop for my classroom
Format: Paperback
I found this book in the #WeNeedDiverseBooks catalog on Scholastic Book Clubs, which is my favorite place to shop for my classroom. This book appealed to me because it was a graphic novel, and because of its premise in examining gender norms.
Aster is a boy who lives in a magical society where the girls are trained to be witches, and the boys are supposed to grow to be shapeshifters. Aster's shapeshifting magic hasn't come to him, and he's really much more interested in witchery. At one part of the story, he points out to the other boys that it's silly that the girls are in lessons learning things while they are just running around playing fighting games. As a teacher, this made me smile! His family then runs into a mysterious danger, and no one will listen to him when he thinks he has a way to help make things right. Will he be able to use magic his way to help save his family?
This book features a diverse cast, which is readily apparent to the reader thanks to the graphic novel format. Aster is a likable protagonist, as is his friend Charlie. I love the message that shatters the binary gender norms, especially because they are sometimes quite rigid in this age group. When I listed the books I had bought to my students this last year, some of them questioned me on how the title could be "The Witch Boy." Even in the world of fantasy, they had clear gender norms established in their head. I am all for books that can help loosen those norms and create more open minds. There is no reason for our children to feel like there are things that they cannot do or be because they have been assigned a certain gender. Because of its fantasy setting, I feel like it's a book that can be more readily accepted by readers and gatekeepers with more conservative views. This kind of representation is very important for our children who are coming of age and discovering themselves.
Because it's a middle grade novel, the plot of THE WITCH BOY moved very quickly and I would have loved more details about the characters and the world. However, I think it'll be more than enough to keep kids engaged, and the story line is easy to follow. It's a quick read, which is a huge plus for some of our reluctant readers, and my students were definitely attracted to the full color, high-quality pages. This was the nicest looking book in the book order that it came in, and one of my students must have liked it enough to keep it, because it never made it back and I had to order a new one on Amazon.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Enchanting, meaningful, and perfect for teens (and their moms sneaking a read, too!)
Format: Paperback
The Witch Boy is a spellbinding graphic novel that my preteen devoured in one sitting—and honestly, so did I. It beautifully explores what it means to be different, to challenge family expectations, and to find your own magic (literally and figuratively).
The story follows Aster, a boy growing up in a family where boys become shapeshifters and girls become witches. But Aster doesn’t fit the mold—he’s drawn to witchcraft, despite the risks and disapproval. When something dark starts hunting the boys in his community, it’s Aster’s courage and gifts that may save them all.
What we loved:
✨ The lush, expressive illustrations pull you right in.
✨ Aster’s journey is a wonderful mirror for kids who feel like they don’t quite fit in—whether that’s because of interests, identity, or just growing up.
✨ It weaves in big ideas (gender roles, acceptance, family pressure) without ever being heavy-handed.
✨ It’s just spooky enough to be thrilling, but not nightmare fuel.
If you’re a parent looking for books that spark conversation about being true to yourself, kindness, and empathy—or if your kid loves stories about witches, werewolves, and secret magic—this is a must.
We can’t wait to get the next in the series. Highly recommend!

The perfect MG graphic novel
Format: Paperback
I absolutely adored this MG graphic novel!
In this fantasy adventure we follow Aster, a young boy raised by a magical collective of families. For as long as they can remember, boys have always shifted and girls have always performed magic, but Aster knows he has magic inside of him, the kind the girls are always using. As a mysterious force thrusts the families' adolescents into danger, Aster must come to terms with his true nature and find the strength to thwart the evil threat.
I think what worked best for me was our MC Aster. He's an introverted kid that's going through puberty, and naturally everything is confusing. I remember feeling the same way growing up, so it wasn't hard to resonate and cheer for him as he struggled and sorted things out. I thought he was a great hero with intelligence and a sound, rational mind, someone younger readers could look up to.
The world this was set in was so cool! This little colony of magical families is set just outside the reach of the normal human world, and I loved the easy to understand magic system and the little secrets within. I had to know everything!
Plotwise this book had it all. Magic, mystery, and a little dollop of mayhem. A core theme of this novel is questioning gender roles, and I think it made some great points while keeping things light and fun. Pacing was great and moved quickly like I prefer, and I honestly have no complaints about this great work of fiction.
If you're looking for a light LGBT read for you or your youngster, this is the perfect pick!
