"In my family, as far back as I can tell, there was no such thing as communication, only secrets."A young girl in a small southern town in the 80's enlists the help of an unlikely group of friends and family to help her survive an unconventional, sometimes abusive childhood. Skinny Dipping in a Dirty Pond is highly recommended for fiction readers looking for coming-of-age and family narratives that are anything but ordinary and predictable. Its lively tone packs a punch.

The Landions are not only trying to end the human race but erase them completely. A delightfully fast-paced story crackling with energy, Maya Loop meets young readers in the wide-open world of being a kid where everything feels like magic.

Get ready to meet everyone's favorite alien in the attic. Ever since Dexter and Dougal's mom passed away, life has been different-but things take a whole new turn when a shooting star turns out to be a creature from outer space!
