Marisol loves her colorful home in Cuba with its vibrant people and food and flowers that she picks with her father on their way to the library. But Cuba is changing, and it isn't long before the home she once knew is no longer safe. And then her parents announce it's no longer her home at all, and they're sending her to the United States...alone. Suddenly Marisol's world is devoid of the color it was once so full of as she begins a new life in cold, gray Brooklyn. Nothing about this new place is familiar--not the language, the weather, the food, school, or even her foster parents. Marisol has never felt so lost; but she will find that perhaps the best way to find home is to stay true to herself. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

An enchanting, riotous, and playfully illustrated debut graphic novel following a young goblin trying to save her best friend from the haunted mall-perfect for fans of Steven Universe and Adventure Time. In the eerie town of 'Allows, some people get to be magical sorceresses, while other people have their spirits trapped in the mall for all ghastly eternity. Then there's twelve-year-old goblin-witch Beetle, who's caught in between. She'd rather skip being homeschooled completely and spend time with her best friend, Blob Glost. But the mall is getting boring, and B.G. is cursed to haunt it, tethered there by some unseen force. And now Beetle's old best friend, Kat, is back in town for a sorcery apprenticeship with her Aunt Hollowbone. Kat is everything Beetle wants to be: beautiful, cool, great at magic, and kind of famous online. Beetle's quickly being left in the dust. But Kat's mentor has set her own vile scheme in motion. If Blob Ghost doesn't escape the mall soon, their afterlife might be coming to a very sticky end. Now, Beetle has less than a week to rescue her best ghost, encourage Kat to stand up for herself, and confront the magic she's been avoiding for far too long. And hopefully ride a broom without crashing. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

All her life, Siena has dreamed of being a ballerina. Her love of movement and dedication to the craft earned her a spot at the School of American Ballet, with hopes of becoming a member of George Balanchine's world-famous New York City Ballet company. Siena has worked hard for many years to be a professional ballet dancer, but injury and doubt are starting to take their toll. Maybe it's time to look beyond the world of dance-but when you have spent your entire life working toward something, how do you figure out what comes next? And how do you figure out who you are without the thing that defined you? Available in softcover and hardcover editions. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
