Описание:
From the highly acclaimed author of Caterpillar Summer comes a heartfelt story about the sweetness and stings of middle-school friendship.
Meg has always found comfort in her best friend Beatrix's shadow. Self-assured Beatrix is the one who makes decisions, and the girls have been a pair since kindergarten. But middle school has brought some changes in Beatrix, especially when Meg tries to step outside her role as sidekick.
A special science elective is Meg's first step away, but when she's paired with quirky new girl Hazel, Beatrix steps in to stake her claim on Meg. Meg is taken aback at how mean Beatrix can be--and how difficult it is to stand up to her friend. But as Meg gets to know Hazel while working on their backyard beehive project, she starts to wonder: Is being Beatrix's friend worth turning down the possibility of finding her own voice?
This pitch-perfect exploration of middle-school friendship dynamics brims with heart and hope, and will resonate with readers of all ages.

Описание: A newly divorced woman stumbles on a box of her father's last effects while packing up her recently sold house. Julia never knew her father, so she's intrigued by a photo she finds of her father and another woman with the words "The love of my life" written on the back. Against her mother's wishes, Julia sets out to meet her father's family but uncovers a web of lies and murder that leaves her fearing for her life. Along the way, she meets Jack, a freelance reporter who has information but also has secrets of his own. Julia discovers her mother knows more than she's telling. As she presses for answers and deals with mounting intimidation from her father's family, she wonders if she ever knew her mother at all... She didn't think she would be able to fall asleep, but she had; however, it wasn't long before she was awakened by her cell phone ringing. She tried to adjust her eyes to see the number, but when that didn't work she just answered. "Who are you and what do you want?" a voice said. "Excuse me?" she mumbled. "If you're trying to pull something, be warned." It was a man's voice. "Blackmailers never win."

This beautifully written, emotional debut perfect for fans of Lynda Mullaly Hunt or Ali Benjamin tells the story a girl, her special needs brother, and the summer they will never forget.
"An engaging, honest book." --Kimberly Brubaker Bradley, Newbery Honor-winning author of The War That Saved My Life
Cat and her brother Chicken have always had a very special bond--Cat is one of the few people who can keep Chicken happy. When he has a "meltdown" she's the one who scratches his back and reads his favorite story. She's the one who knows what Chicken needs. Since their mom has had to work double-hard to keep their family afloat after their father passed away, Cat has been the glue holding her family together.
But even the strongest glue sometimes struggles to hold. When a summer trip doesn't go according to plan, Cat and Chicken end up spending three weeks with grandparents they never knew. For the first time in years, Cat has the opportunity to be a kid again, and the journey she takes shows that even the most broken or strained relationships can be healed if people take the time to walk in one another's shoes.
