Dr. Rebecca Hall, an historian, is the granddaughter of slaves and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery. The accepted history of slave revolts has always told her that enslaved women took a back set. But Rebecca decides to look deeper, and she finds women warriors everywhere. Part graphic novel, part memoir, Wake is an imaginative tour-de-force that tells the story of women-led slave revolts and chronicles scholar Rebecca Hall's efforts to uncover the truth about these women warriors who, until now, have been left out of the historical record.

by Marshall Poe & Leland Purvis Brothers Owen and Amos Bennington are front and center of the fraught debate over slavery in the year 1856. Recently orphaned after their parents, vocal abolitionists, are killed, the two boys both feel driven to continue their parents' quest. However, each sees a different path to the desired end - Owen, the older of the two, begins to volunteer with Abraham Lincoln, believing that if Lincoln's political career succeeds, the country will go the right way. Younger brother Amos is filled with fire and joins up with violent abolitionist John Brown. The brothers encounter individual experiences on these two different sides of the issue, revealing to readers these less often described stages leading up to Lincoln's election and the start of the Civil War. Ultimately, Amos and Owen reunite for a thrilling moment in Lincoln's personal and our country's political history. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Hope Larson It's summertime, and 13-year-old Abby is at camp. It promises to be a great time - she's planning to spend a lot of time with her friend Rose, who is now a cabin assistant, and she'll be bunking with Beth, a girl she met the summer before. But Rose turns out to be too busy with her new cabin assistant duties to spend any time hanging out with Abby. And Beth seems to have developed a persona that's almost too cool for Abby to get. Then Shasta arrives on the scene. She's pretty, she's fun, and she enjoys exactly the same books and games Abby does. Unfortunately she also rubs Beth and Zoe - Abby's other cabinmate - the wrong way. What happens next will be familiar to any girl who's ever been torn between friendships. This is a classic summer camp story of the friendships and betrayals among girls that epitomizes what it's like to be female, nerdy, and adolescent in America.
