Описание: Perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen's classic Hoot, this humorous adventure story set in a not-so-distant future celebrates the important differences we can make with small, brave acts.When Ahab and his friends find a bullfrog in their town -- a real, live bullfrog, possibly the last bullfrog in North America -- they have several options: A. Report it to the Environmental Police Force. Too bad everyone knows the agency is a joke.B. Leave it be. They're just a bunch of kids -- what if they hurt it by moving it?C. Find another real, live bullfrog on the black market. Convince their parents to let them bike to Canada. Introduce the two frogs. Save all of frogkind.Ahab convinces the rest of the group that C is their only real option. Because if they don't save this frog, who will? Their quest, which will involve fake ice cream, real frog spawn, and some very close calls, teaches Ahab that hope is always the logical choice and that science is always better with friends.With humor and empathy, acclaimed author Madelyn Rosenberg builds an all-too-imaginable future ravaged by climate change, where one kid can still lean on his friends and dream up a better tomorrow.

Justice comes to Jean Ville through SISSY
The final book in the Catfish and Lilly trilogy is a culmination of the past twenty-five years of turmoil and discrimination against Susie Burton and Rodney Thibault's mixed-race relationship in a small town in South Louisiana. Susie's younger sister, Sissy, attempts to find out who shot her sister and brother-in-law and runs down every option in an effort to find justice. Her tenacity and quirky attitude leads her to befriend the governor, the attorney general, the district judge, and other powerful people who she enlists in her quest.
While Susie and Rodney fight for their lives and, ultimately, rehabilitate in New Orleans, and Marianne falls in love with a dashing surgeon, Sissy confronts her past, present, and future in her search for the shooters. She has a relationship with Assistant Attorney General, Lucas McMath, whose investigation uncovers truths that cause Sissy to question everything and everyone she holds dear.
In the end, she is the most surprised when the actual villain is revealed and hers is the life most changed.

It's 1974 and Susie Burton and Rodney Thibault--a white girl and black boy--leave the prejudice of South Louisiana behind and run off to New York to be married. They believe they have the protection of a local doctor to keep the Klan and Susie's dad from disturbing their plans, but Susie finds herself alone in New York City. Four-year-old, Lilly comes into Susie's life to assuage her pain and loneliness and the relationship between the older and younger girls shapes what happens over the next ten years.
Susie continues to write the stories Catfish told her about plantation life and the changes that took place after the abolishment of slavery. The Burton's help, Tootsie, who is Catfish's daughter, tells Susie new stories about Catfish and their family and Susie tells Lilly her story.
Lilly is a story of love and redemption, of sacrifice and reward, of pain and joy. The legacy of Catfish lives on through Susie and Lilly as they navigate the ever-changing world of the 1970s and 1980s where Negroes become African Americans, coloreds become blacks, the Vietnam War creates havoc, the Nixon Whitehouse falls apart, and integration and equal rights make historical impacts on the Deep South.

Catfish
It's the 1960's and early 70's in a small town in the Deep South where Susanna Burton, a white girl whose traumatic home life is hidden behind her father's power, finds a forbidden world of love and acceptance with a Negro family. She falls for Rodney Thibault, a colored boy who gives her the tenderness and warmth she's never known, when anti-miscegenation laws are still in effect. Even after the supreme court rules against these laws in 1967, the KKK, other white supremacists, and Susie's parents continue to enforce them. From teenagers to young adults, while the two are forced to go their separate ways, date people of their own race, and live apart, the one thing that keeps bringing them back together is the patriarch of the Negro family, Catfish, who becomes Susie's surrogate grandfather.
How this unlikely pair navigates the white girl's physical and emotional abuse and the black boy's and his family's encounters with the KKK, forms the character and inner strength these two young people need to finally take charge of their own destinies.
Today, 2017 Race in America seems to be growing more divisive even as mixed-race couples break barriers and bring more colorless children into the world. Why this divide exists is a thorn for Madelyn Edwards who was raised by a woman of color whom she still loves beyond measure.
In her debut novel, Catfish, Madelyn subtly explores the chasm between black and white families that existed in the Deep South in the 1960's and '70's when Jim Crow and the Ku Klux Klan defied federal laws. She tells the story of an older Negro man named, Catfish, who befriends a young white girl and shows the child what a true, loving family is all about. Susie Burton finds her real self through her love for Catfish, his granddaughter, Marianne, and the Burton's help, Tootsie. Susie falls in love with a colored boy, Rodney Thibault, Marianne's cousin. The young couple's journey is fraught with violence and abuse as everyone from the Klan to Susie's dad try to keep them apart.
If readers find themselves routing for Rodney and Susie at the end of the book, Madelyn feels she has accomplished her task of blending color lines and making prejudice a forgotten emotion with Catfish.

I thank God for preparing the hearts of the children and grown-ups that will encounter Jesus Christ in this book, amen. To God be the glory.
