Diana and her little brother, Georgie, know every inch of the land around the old Willis place, a crumbling mansion that some people say is haunted. They climb the trees and swim in the pond. And they can do whatever they want, even stay up all night. They don't have to change their clothes, brush their hair, or go to school. They have total freedom-as long as they don't leave the grounds. When Lissa arrives with her father, the new caretaker of the estate, Diana is overjoyed. She's been wishing for a friend. She can show Lissa all her favorite spots, and they can share their favorite books. Maybe Lissa can even help her uncover the ghastly secret of the creepy old Willis house. But there are rules that must be followed in order to keep the peace. Diana and Georgie aren't allowed to make friends. If Diana makes contact with Lissa, she could unleash evil forces beyond her control... and then they'll all be sorry. (immagine)

When coding whiz Zoey goes from homeschooled to new school, she develops an app called The Cool Code with a cute llama avatar that will tell her everything from what to say to what to wear based on pop culture algorithms she's uploaded. But when the app gives her ridiculous advice, awkwardness and hilarity ensues. With a few upgrades and a bit of debugging from the coding club, the app actually works-Zoey becomes really popular-but gets her pulled in all kinds of directions, including away from her real friends. Life's most complicated choices... is there a code for that? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Mary Downing Hahn, the Queen of Tween Screams, tells the eerie tale of a mischievous brother and sister who pretend their grandmother's Vermont inn is haunted and awaken the real spirits who inhabit the place. Travis and his sister, Corey, can't resist a good trick. When they learn that their grandmother's quiet Vermont inn, where they're spending the summer, has a history of ghost sightings, they decide to do a little 'haunting' of their own. Before long, their supernatural pranks have tourists flocking to the inn, and business booms. But Travis and Corey soon find out that theirs aren't the only ghosts at Fox Hill Inn. Their thoughtless games have awakened something dangerous, something that should have stayed asleep. Can these siblings lay to rest the restless spirits they've disturbed?

Just as her longtime BFF, Addy, is gravitating toward the popular crowd and starting to care more about school dances than tree house playdates, Mia finds out that her favorite science camp friend, Tariq, is moving to town and will be going to school with her. She's super excited and can't wait to show him around and help him make friends. But when Tariq arrives in town, he seems like he's grown up a lot, too. No more braces or glasses. A new haircut. And who knew he was also a soccer star, immediately making the team mid-season? He's welcomed to Buttonwood Bay Middle School with open arms in a way that Mia can't even recognize, and now she's feeling more lost than ever. But then her science teacher announces the school's science olympics, and she and Tariq are teaming up again to crush the competition-just like at camp. Through much experimentation and a little trial and error, Mia navigates new friendships and old as she tries to find her place in middle school-and on the winner's podium.

A little girl and her live-in monster learn about what makes them different-and what unites them. Based on Chris Hallbeck's webcomic of the same name, Pebble and Wren follows human girl Wren and her live-in monster, Pebble, as she teaches them all about how the human world works - from why the moon changes shape to why we don't eat candy wrappers - while trying to unlock special abilities without which Pebble will have to return to the monster forest. A silly, sweet, and sometimes gross tribute to friendship for fans of Calvin and Hobbes and Catwad. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

When college freshman Kat Fields receives a mysterious email urging her to visit an isolated, relatively unknown Texas town with a history of witchcraft, strange sightings, and 'devil lights'-glowing red stars that appear above the town's hills every night-she ditches her plans for spring break and takes a solo road trip to Estrella Roja to investigate the lights for her podcast, Paranormal Texas, catchphrase: 'Y'all stay spooky!' Meanwhile, Marisol 'Mari' Castillo, is also headed for Estrella Roja to attend the funeral for her abuela whom she hasn't seen since childhood, when her mother cut ties with the family and left town. Feeling lost and maybe a little bored, she decides to help Kat investigate after a chance meeting at the local diner-and, okay, it doesn't hurt that Kat is super cute. As the two girls grow closer not only to each other, but to uncovering a dark legacy that the town was built on, they accidentally unleash an ancient danger that could threaten everything they love and have come to love about each other. Delightfully creepy and unapologetically queer, in this horror romp of a graphic novel sometimes dreams do come true. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In the tightening grip of Hitler's power, towns, cities, and ghettos were emptied of Jews. Unless they could escape, Jewish children would not be spared their deadly fate in the Holocaust, a tragedy of unfathomable depth. Only 11 percent of the Jewish children living in Europe before 1939 survived the Second World War. Run and Hide tells the stories of these children, forced to leave their homes and families, as they escaped certain horror. Some children flee to England by train. Others are hidden from Nazis, sometimes in plain sight. Some are secreted away in attics and farmhouses. Still others make miraculous escapes, cresting over the snow-covered Pyrenees mountains to safety. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Spring Break is full of possibilities…but not for Olive. This year, Olive is leaving her friends and all of their exciting vacation plans behind to visit her dad at his new apartment in the city. Goober is thrilled to spend a whole week with their father and has a long list of activities for their time together. Olive, on the other hand, still remembers the hurt of their dad moving halfway across the world. She would rather spend time with her friend Bree or scrolling through her new phone to keep up with everything she's missing back home than catch up with him. As the week winds on, the normally easygoing Olive finds feelings of loneliness and resentment throwing her out of whack. Is there any hope of salvaging the visit-or will Olive's Spring Break be a Spring Bust? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
