New arrival! A Cure for the Hiccups by Jennifer E. Smith. Illustrated by Brandon James Scott. "A delightful children's book." Ages 4-8.

When Max gets a persistent case of the hiccups, she tries everything to make them go away. She tries holding her breath. She tries drinking water upside down. She tries standing on her head and doing a somersault, but nothing works. “The only way to get rid of the hiccups is to wait,” says her grandmother. But Max doesn’t have time to wait!
