in this debut graphic novel from Rachel Elliott, fifth grade gets a lot more complicated for aspiring comics artist Riley Mayes, with lots of friend drama and a growing realization that she like likes girls. Fifth grade is just not Riley's vibe. Everyone else is squaded up-except Riley. Her best friend moved away. All she wants to do is draw, and her grades show it. One thing that makes her happy is her favorite comedian, Joy Powers. Riley loves to watch her old shows and has memorized her best jokes. So when the class is assigned to write letters to people they admire, of course Riley's picking Joy Powers! Things start to look up when a classmate, Cate, offers to help Riley with the letter, and a new kid, Aaron, actually seems to get her weird sense of humor. But when mean girl Whitney spreads a rumor about her, things begin to click into place for Riley. Her curiosity about Aaron's two dads and her celebrity crush on Joy Powers suddenly make more sense. Full of humor and heart, this is a story about friendship, identity, and embracing all the parts of yourself that make you special. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

The Brothers Grimm's enduring fairy tales are brought to life for a new generation of readers in their original, uncut, uncensored form, in a lavish new edition by the master of the gothic macabre, bestselling illustrator Gris Grimly. Grimly, the modern master of gothic horror, who has faithfully reproduced the original text of a selection of tales - including 'Rapunzel,' 'Hansel and Gretel,' and 'Little Red-Cap' - and adorned them with his own inimitable artwork.

There's Santa Claus, Shakespeare, Mickey Mouse, The Bible, and then there's Star Wars. Nothing quite compares to sitting with down with a young child and hearing the sound of John Williams' score as those beloved golden letters fill the screen. In this fun, erudite and often moving book, Cass R. Sunstein explores the lessons of Star Wars as they relate to childhood, fathers, the Dark Side, rebellion, and redemption. As it turns out, Star Wars also has a lot to teach us about constitutional law, economics, and political uprisings. Ultimately, Sunstein argues, Star Wars is about the freedom of choice and our never-ending ability to make the right decision when the chips are down. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

From Julie Murphy comes the exciting conclusion in the two-book origin story of fan-favorite comic character Faith, a fierce, plus-size superhero. Faith Herbert can finally admit that she's not a regular teen. Thankfully, her two best friends, Matt and Ches, are now in on her superhero secret. But after the chaos of her first semester, Faith just wants to end her senior year on a normal note-enjoying all the hallmarks of graduating high school-like prom! And, possibly, getting to attend college in the fall. A new teacher has taken over journalism class, and Faith is only occasionally reminded of the empty spot left by Colleen Bristow, the quiet nerd-turned-supervillain. That is, until Faith hears from Peter that other psiots have been going missing, and he suspects that her old classmate is somehow involved. Faith decides the only way to get to the bottom of it is to find Colleen-before enemies can get to her first. As her search starts to collide with the memorable senior year she's been hoping for, Faith learns that you gotta have faith…that sometimes fate will point you in the right direction.
