  A WiFi, WTF thriller from the author of Candy. “Intelligent and fast-moving, cleverly shifts between comic-book thrills and touching realism.” —The New York Times Book Review 
   
  What can he do with his new powers—and what are they doing to him? 
   
  Before the attack, Tom Harvey was just an average teen. But a head-on collision with high technology has turned him into an actualized App. Fragments of a shattered iPhone are embedded in his brain. And they’re having an extraordinary effect on his every thought. 
   
  Because now Tom knows, sees, and can do more than any normal boy ever could. But with his new powers comes a choice: To avenge Lucy, the girl he loves, will he hunt down the vicious gangsters who hurt her? Will he take the law into his own electric hands and exterminate them from the South London housing projects where, by fear and violence, they rule? 
   
  Not even his mental search engine can predict the shocking outcome of iBoy’s actions. 
   
  “The classic superhero plot, at once cutting edge sci-fi and moral fable.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) 
   
  “Brooks is a master at revealing the unsteady fault line between good and evil.” —Booklist (starred review) 
   
  “Brilliant, harrowing, uplifting . . . with a passionate truth. If I were a producer, I’d option iBoy immediately. This is the big one. Bravo!” —The London Times 
   
  “Brooks delivers something that’s less a work of science fiction than a brutal rumination on vengeance, near-limitless power, and their effects on people, with believably flawed characters and a harsh setting that serve the story well.” —Publishers Weekly

  The G-rated, child-friendly version of the hilarious #1 New York Times bestselling classic!Go the F*** to Sleep, the picture book for adults, became a cultural sensation by striking a universal chord for parents (with a bit of potty-mouth language to help them vent their frustration). Now, Adam Mansbach and Ricardo Cortés reunite with Seriously, Just Go to Sleep, inviting the children themselves in on the joke.Of course, kids are well aware of how difficult they can be at bedtime. With Mansbach’s new child-appropriate narrative, kids will recognize their tactics, giggle at their own mischievousness, and empathize with their parents’ struggles—a perspective most children’s books don’t capture. Most importantly, it provides a common ground for children and their parents to talk about one of their most stressful daily rituals.This fresh rendition includes Cortés’s updated illustrations, with a cameo appearance by Samuel L. Jackson, who narrated the audio book version of Go the F*** to Sleep

  Balderdash! - John Newbery and...

  This delightful picture book biography is “a stellar introduction to ‘the father of children’s literature,’ and a glorious example of dynamic bookmaking” (School Library Journal, starred review). In Balderdash!, acclaimed children’s book author Michelle Markel shares a loving tribute to John Newbury, the first pioneer of children's books. In the eighteenth century, children were given nothing to read but lessons and rules. John Newbery imagined books overflowing with entertaining stories, science, and games—and he caused quite a stir when he made this dream a reality.  Newbery—for whom the prestigious Newbery Medal is named—believed that every book should be made for the reader's enjoyment. He became a celebrated author and publisher, changing the world of children's books forever. This book about his life and legacy is as full of energy and delight as any young reader could wish.
