Door of No Return

Alexander Kwame: Black Star / B

Black Star

Set during the turbulent segregation era, Kwame Alexander weaves a spellbinding story of struggle, determination and the unflappable faith of an American family. Twelve-year old Charley is set on becoming the first female pitcher to play professional baseball, even if that's a lofty dream for a Black girl in the American South in the 1920s. Even so, her grandfather Kofi's thrilling stories about courageous ancestors and epic journeys make it impossible not to dream big. She knows he has so much more to tell, but according to her parents, she isn't old enough to know about certain things, like what happened to Booker Preston that one night in Great Bridge, and why she can never play on the brand-new baseball field on the other side of town. When Charley challenges a neighbourhood bully to a game at the church picnic, she knows she can win, even with her ragtag team. Then a dispute on the field leads to Charley making a fateful decision, one that will bring consequences she never could have imagined.

11-year-old Kofi loves his family, playing oware with his grandfather and swimming in the river. He's warned though, to never go to the river at night. One fateful night, the unthinkable happens and Kofi's world turns upside down. He ends up in a fight for his life and what happens next will send him on a harrowing journey across land and sea.

The Door of No Return

The #1 New York Times bestsellerShortlisted for the Carnegie Medal for Writing'At once vivid and simple, lyrical and surgical, expressive and exacting' Lupita Nyong'oDreams are today's answers for tomorrow's questions. Eleven-year-old Kofi Offin has dreams of water, of its urgent whisper that beckons with promises and secrets. He has heard the call on the banks of Upper Kwanta, West Africa, where he lives. He loves these things above all else: his family, the fireside tales of his father's father, a girl named Ama, and, of course, swimming. But when the unthinkable - a sudden death - occurs during a festival between rival villages, Kofi ends up in a fight for his life. What happens next will send him on a harrowing journey across land and sea, and away from everything he loves. Yet Kofi's dreams may be the key to his freedom...

The thrilling new dystopian series!

The New York Times bestselling author of Pax delivers an incredible WWII animal rescue adventure, about an orphan who discovers unexpected courage when he becomes involved with the Resistance. Petit éclair. That's what the other boys at the orphanage call Lucas DuBois. Lucas is tired of his cowardly reputation, just as he's tired of the war and the Nazi occupation of his French village. He longs to show how brave he can be. He gets the chance when he saves a litter of kittens from cruel boys and brings them to an abandoned stable to care for them. There he comes upon a stranger who is none too happy to see him: Alice, the daughter of a British horse trainer, who is hiding her filly from German soldiers. Soon Lucas begins to realise they are not the only ones in the village with secrets. The housekeeper at the German maternity home and a priest at the orphanage pass coded messages; a young mother at the home makes dangerous plans to keep her baby from forced adoption; and a neighbour in town may be harbouring a Jewish family. Emboldened by the unlikely heroes all around him, Lucas is forced to decide how much he is willing to risk to make the most courageous rescue of all. Perfect for fans of Ross Montgomery, Phil Earle and Michael Morpurgo, this accessible novel, told in short chapters, illuminates a little-known aspect of World War II history. "Lucas DuBois is proof that a mere kitten can be the bravest of lions by always standing up for what's right." Alan Gratz, New York Times bestselling author of Refugee

The Lions' Run

By My Side

Two girls who live in a hotel are drawn into a murder
 mystery in this charming, classic-feeling cosy-crime children's
 debut from bestselling Irish author Emily Hourican - perfect for
 fans of Murder Most Unladylike, The Swifts and Enid
 Blyton.

 Twelve-year-old Meredith and ten-year-old Macy feel like the luckiest
 girls around. The Ivy Hotel in Dublin is old, beautiful and
 beloved, with a tight-knit staff that feel like family, and they
 get to call it home.

 Meredith and Macy's mum is the General Manager, and their modest
 apartment is tucked away in a corner, but it has lots of perks. The
 girls make friends with long-term residents - like Colin, the
 quiet little boy who plays piano, and Agatha, the eccentric older
 lady who stays in a plush suite with her dog, Milo.

 The girls love spying on fancy events, sneaky treats from the restaurant
 and knowing all the secret stairs and corridors that guests
 never see, where the staff move around invisibly, making sure
 everything runs like clockwork...

 This is going to come in handy. Because within the cosy walls of
 the Ivy Hotel, there is also danger, intrigue and threat. Just as
 the hotel's new owners arrive, ready to sniff out any excuse to
 make cuts and fire staff, the girls are faced with their biggest
 task yet: a murder to solve.

 <ul>
 <li> A welcoming and super-cosy hotel setting with a loveable cast
 of characters and a dash of danger, perfect for mystery fans age
 9-12.
 </li><li> Alternating perspectives from two brilliant sisters - responsible
 and emotional Meredith and fierce, logical Macy.
 </li><li> Full of suspense, sleuthing and twisting discoveries, as the
 kids take the lead, working to cleverly uncover the identity of
 a mysterious guest and his even more mysterious death...

Murder at the Ivy Hotel

Driven from her nest, Little Bird crosses paths with other migrating animals, including humans, looking for a safe place to call home.
Reading like a modern nursery rhyme, Fly Away Home begins with a family of birds launched into exile as "a troubling of hummingbirds / brings news of beyond" and "the deceit of lapwings drives its family to roam."
Author Betty Quan gives animals thought-provoking collective nouns (a charm of goldfinches, a flamboyance of flamingoes)-some real, some invented-while Akin Duzakin's simple yet suggestive illustrations spark curiosity about the characters Little Bird encounters.
On the wing, Little Bird witnesses the mass migrations of other animals: monarch butterflies, caribou, sea turtles-and human, too, including one little girl with a pink backpack. After her family finds asylum, Little Bird meets the little girl on a balcony in a new city-a safe nest for both at last. 
With the world witnessing an unprecedented level of migration-for greater opportunities or because of conflicts and climate change-and over 40 million international migrants under the age of 20, Fly Away Home offers families and classrooms a hopeful entry to a complex topic.

Fly Away Home

Playful and poetic, Every Space Between highlights the little moments tucked between beginnings and endings, between actions and reactions, between you and me - and shows how special an ordinary day can become if you pay close enough attention.
You can find in-betweens everywhere! Some are as overlooked as the space between an itch and a scratch. Others are as thrilling as the pause between making a wish and blowing out your birthday candles. How you feel about an in-between really does depend on your perspective ... and each one is full of potential.
Once you spot the spaces in-between, everything changes. Instead of rushing from one thing to the next, you can pause to collect and reflect. Is this something you really want to do? How much longer can you wait? Maybe it's time to say ... sorry?
Sparkling with the signature wit of Naseem Hrab (author of How to Party Like a Snail) and the cracking comedic timing of John Martz (illustrator of How to Give Your Cat a Bath: In Five Easy Steps), Every Space Between is an unexpected invitation to a world of possibilities!
