'Kids always search for heroes, so we might as well have a say in it,' Brad Meltzer realized, and so he envisioned this friendly, fun approach to biography - for his own kids, and for yours. Each book focuses on a particular character trait that made that person heroic. Abraham Lincoln always stayed true to what he knew was right, and thus he freed the country from slavery. Engaging and collectible, these biographies will inspire young kids to strive and dream. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

For fans of Smile, a heartwarming graphic novel about surviving middle school through the power of roller derby. For most of her 12 years, Astrid has done everything with her best friend Nicole. But after Astrid falls in love with roller derby and signs up for derby camp, Nicole decides to go to dance camp instead. And so begins the most difficult summer of Astrid's life as she struggles to keep up with the older girls at camp, hang on to the friend she feels slipping away, and cautiously embark on a new friendship. As the end of summer nears and her first roller derby bout (and middle school!) draws closer, Astrid realizes that maybe she is strong enough to handle the bout, a lost friendship, and middle school - in short, strong enough to be a roller girl.

Wimpy Kid meets Shrek in this hilarious new series about a troll trying to get by in middle school. It's not easy being Zarf. As a troll, he's stuck at the bottom of the middle school hierarchy, way below the prince and knights (populars), ogres and giants (jocks), and even the lowly minstrels (band geeks). Then when the king disappears and Zarf's archenemy, the prince, ascends the throne, he makes Zarf's life even more miserable. And so it is that Zarf and his two sidekicks (a neurotic, mutton-obsessed pig and unfunny court jester heir) set out to find the missing king as well as their way to middle school heroism. Okay, at least there's a chance they might find the king. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

The eleventh book in this inspiring, New York Times-bestselling biography series features an unusual hero from the entertainment world who will be familiar to children and parents: the creator of the Muppets. This friendly, fun biography series focuses on the traits that made our heroes great, the traits that kids can aspire to in order to live heroically themselves. Jim Henson, for example, was always dreaming up something new, and always expressing his belief in the goodness of people. Henson was a born performer with a terrific sense of humor, and he used those talents to help create two of the most beloved programs in television history: The Muppet Show and Sesame Street. Through his Muppets, Jim showed the world that there's nothing more beautiful than imagination, especially when it's accompanied by laughter and kindness.
