As the civil rights struggle heats up in Texas, two families - one white, one black - find common ground. This semi-autobiographical tale is set in 1967 Texas, against the backdrop of the fight for civil rights. A white family from a notoriously racist neighborhood in the suburbs and a black family from its poorest ward cross Houston's color line, overcoming humiliation, degradation, and violence to win the freedom of five black college students unjustly charged with the murder of a policeman.

Stand by Me meets My Neighbor Totoro in this astonishing, magical-realist adventure story for middle-grade readers. It's the night of the annual Autumn Equinox Festival, when the town gathers to float paper lanterns down the river. Legend has it that after drifting out of sight, they'll soar off to the Milky Way and turn into brilliant stars. This year, Ben and his classmates are determined to find out where those lanterns really go, and they made a pact with two simple rules: No one turns for home. No one looks back. The plan is to follow the river on their bikes for as long as it takes to learn the truth, but it isn't long before the pact is broken by all except for Ben and (much to Ben's disappointment) Nathaniel, the one kid who just doesn't seem to fit in. Together, Nathaniel and Ben will travel down a winding road full of magic, wonder, and unexpected friendship.* *And a talking bear. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Anya could really use a friend. But her new BFF isn't kidding about the 'Forever' part! Of all the things Anya expected to find at the bottom of an old well, a new friend was not one of them. Especially not a new friend who's been dead for a century. Falling down a well is bad enough, but Anya's normal life might actually be worse. She's embarrassed by her family, self-conscious about her body, and she's pretty much given up on fitting in at school. A new friend - even a ghost - is just what she needs.

In the second volume of the fantasy epic Cottons, rabbits and foxes wage war in a world of magic, monsters, and mystery! Bridgebelle tries her best to be a good citizen of the Vale of Industry. She has a top position at the carrot factory, where she helps produce the mysterious fuel known as cha. It's a good life for a rabbit - an ordinary life. But Bridgebelle is not ordinary - she's an artist. She uses her rare gift to create magical, cha-powered works of art known as thokchas. Many rabbits are suspicious of thokchas, and they blame them-and Bridgebelle-for the mysterious plague that's stricken their community. The foxes, however, see the power that thokchas hold. They're planning to use art and dark magic to destroy the rabbits once and for all. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
