V eraVance loves comic books so much, she can’t wait for the after- school comics camp, even though her mother doesn’t think it’s educational enough. And once it starts, it is as great as Vera thought it would be, thanks to the encouragement of her enthusiastic friend Nixie and instructions from teachers who are accomplished cartoonists themselves.Vera especially loves the challenge of developing her own comic: The Secret Life of Little Spoon . When the camp teachers announce a concluding field trip to a local comic-con, where students’ comics will have the chance to win awards, Vera is heartbroken when her mother says she can’t go. If only brave Little Spoon could somehow come toVera’s rescue and convinceVera’s mother to change her mind.

STAND TALL. BE LOUD.

GAME FACE ON.

Foreword by New York Times bestselling author ALAN GRATZ OUT of HIDING

“The world is so beautiful. I want so much to live.”

When cheerleading tryouts are announced, Christina and her best friend, Megan, literally jump at the chance to join the squad. As two of the only kids of color in the school, they have always yearned to fit in—and the middle school cheerleaders are popular and accepted by everyone. But will the girls survive the terrifying tryouts, with their whole grade watching? And will their friendship withstand the pressures of competition? Hilarious and highly relatable, The Tryout will make you laugh, cry, and cheer!

A gripping true story of war, survival, and starting over.

What would happen if a walrus and an elephant seal met each other ? What if they had a fight? Who do you think would win?

An Imprint of Growing up Jewish in 1930s Poland, Ruth Gruener was hidden as a child during the Holocaust. She had to sit motionless and silent in the shadows, lest the Nazis find her—which would mean certain death. When World War II ended, Ruth and her parents were relieved to be alive, and free. But their struggles as displaced people had just begun. scholastic.com Cover art © 2022 by Joanna Cacao In war-ravaged Europe, Ruth and her parents waited and waited for papers that would let them immigrate to America. After a perilous ocean crossing, Ruth had to start all over in Brooklyn—learn a new language, find new friends. But she was haunted by nightmares and flashbacks of the Holocaust. Would she ever truly be able to begin a new life? This powerful and gripping memoir—with a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Alan Gratz—is both deeply personal and universal, exploring the aftershocks of trauma, the promise of hope, and what it means to be a refugee.

The dragonflies live down by the bayou, but there’s no way to know which one’s my brother. There are hundreds, maybe even thousands . . .

WELcome tO

BOOK Space Exploration THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION It’s where lost pups, escape-artist rabbits, overprotective ferrets, and cranky cats— and the people who love them— all find a place to belong.

King is sure that his brother, Khalid, has turned into a dragonfly. After Khalid unexpectedly passed away, he shed his first skin for another and found refuge in the backwaters of their small Louisiana town. Khalid still visits in dreams, a secret King must keep to himself—that, and the fact that he might be gay. As King watches grief transform his family, he comes to un- derstand the beauty and redemption of learning to fly past the secrets that keep him from rising to his truest self. In this raw and exquisite story from the Stonewall Award–winning author of Hurricane Child , we see that love sets us all free. “From the opening sentence, King and the Dragonflies sings the complications of loving and caring for imperfect and wounded people. Callender sets us deep into King’s mind and life and never lets go of the reins. They don’t pull punches . . . and thank goodness for that!” — Alex Gino , Lambda Literary and Stonewall Book Award–winning author of Melissa

IT WAS SAID THE BOY KING’S TOMB WAS CURSED. In an underground burial chamber, in the flickering shadows made by their oil lamps, high priests had carried out ancient, mysterious rituals. As specified by The Book of the Dead , they had summoned protective demons, and placed charms in the tomb’s walls. They had recited spells and prayers.

RANIA ABOUZEID

This NPR Best Book of 2020 is an extraordinary true account of the enormous tragedy of the Syrian civil conflict.

I HAVE A SHINY NEW IDEA. Kaia and her family live near the beach in California, where the fun of moviemaking is all around them. Kaia loves playing with makeup and creating special effects, turning her friends into merfolk and other magical creatures. She also loves spending time with her great-grandpa, Tatang, who has lived with her family her whole life. This summer, Kaia and her friends are making a short movie at art camp inspired by the Filipino folktales Tatang tells her. When he decides that it’s time to return to his homeland, in the Philippines, Kaia will do anything to convince him not to go. This heartwarming novel explores the magic of creativ- ity, the power of storytelling, and the complexity and joys of family love. H “The story is full of Filipino folklore, history, and cuisine, and the beautiful backdrop of the ocean adds to the story’s visual appeal. . . . A TENDER #OWNVOICES TALE.” — School Library Journal, starred review

S ince the revolution -turned-civil war in Syria began in 2011, over 500,000 civilians have been killed and more than 12 million Syrians have been displaced. Rania Abouzeid, one of the foremost journalists on the topic, follows two pairs of sisters from opposite sides of the conflict to give readers a firsthand glimpse of the turmoil and devastation this strife has wrought. Sunni Muslim Ruha and her younger sister Alaa withstand constant attacks by the Syrian government in rebel-held territory. Alawite sisters Hanin and Jawa try to carry on as normal in the police state of regime-held Syria. The girls grow up in a world where nightly bombings are routine and shrapnel counts as toys. They bear witness to arrests, killings, demolished homes, and further atrocities most adults could not even imagine. Still, war does not dampen their sense of hope. Through the stories of Ruha and Alaa and Hanin and Jawa, Abouzeid presents a clear-eyed and page-turning account of the complex conditions in Syria leading to the onset of the harrowing conflict. With Abouzeid’s careful attention and remarkable reporting, she crafts an incredibly empa- thetic and nuanced narrative of the Syrian civil war.

Alicia D. Williams & April Harrison

B eatrice Fletcher is obsessed with unsolved murders in her small town of Cabot Cove, Maine, like her great-aunt Jessica, the famous mystery writer. But when her best friend, Jackson, goes missing, this time the mystery is personal. When Jackson fails to show up for a late-night meetup, Bea stumbles upon three students from the elite Broadmoor Academy: overly friendly and slightly vicious Leisl; her aloof twin brother, Leif; and Carlos, who knows more about, well, everything than he’s letting on. They’re worldly, secretive, and big on playing games like tenace , the hush-hush Broadmoor tradition where anything or anyone can be a clue to future fame and fortune, and players will stop at nothing—including murder— to get ahead. If Bea wants to find Jackson, she too must join the game and play to win. Everyone in Cabot Cove has secrets,

As a hurricane gathered in the Caribbean, blue skies covered Galveston, Texas. Scientists knew a storm was coming. But none of them were able to prepare Galveston for the force of the hurricane that hit on September 8, 1900.

And amid the chaos, Galveston’s residents did all they could to rescue one another. From the meteorologists tracking the storm, to the ordinary people who displayed extraordinary bravery . . . from the inequitable effects of the disaster, to the science of hurricanes and weather: Acclaimed Sibert Honor author Deborah Hopkinson brings voices from history to life in this fast-paced, wide-ranging narrative about the deadliest hurricanes in American history.
