Katrina, a spotted hyena, loves to laugh because she finds the world hilarious, but this frustrates her clan since hyena laughter is supposed to signal danger. Every time Katrina laughs, the others think there’s a threat, like Gary the Lion, and rush to help her. In Sophie Kohn’s latest book, Katrina Hyena, Stand-up Comedian (Owlkids $21.95) for ages 5-8, due out in October, Katrina dreams of becoming a stand-up comedian and decides to lighten her clan’s constant worry by hosting a comedy show. This early chapter book encourages readers to embrace their differences and shows that being unique is something to be celebrated. 9781771475655
