  Can good girls read banned books? 
   
  Rose is a good girl. She listens to her parents and follows every rule. After all, rules are there for a reason … right? And adults always know best. 
   
  Talia, the new girl from New York City, doesn’t think so. After only a week at school, Talia—who does what she wants, when she wants—is already making enemies. First on the list: Charlotte, Rose’s lifelong best friend. 
   
  So why can’t Rose stop wondering what it would be like to be Talia’s friend? And why does Rose read a banned book that Talia recommends? Rose doesn’t know. But the forbidden book makes her ask questions she’s never thought of. When Talia suggests they start a banned books club, how can Rose say no? 
   
  Pushing against her parents, her school, and even Charlotte opens a new world for Rose.  
   
  But when Talia’s escapades become more scary than exciting, Rose must decide when it’s right to keep quiet and when it’s time to speak out. 
   
  “Book banning is the catalyst for this powerful story about friendship, identity, and self-discovery. Through her engaging and complex middle school characters, Young deftly tackles how to bridge the divisions that can tear us apart while still standing up for what we believe.”—KATHERINE MARSH, National Book

  Young Blackbeard the Pirate -...

  YOUNG BLACKBEARD THE PIRATE  
  PORT OF BRISTOL 1690 
  Book 3 of 6 – The curse of the lemonade stand 
  Here is the summary description of this book: 
  In 1690s Bristol, young Edward Teach—the boy who would become the infamous pirate Blackbeard—leads his crew in a daring lemonade stand scheme at the bustling High Cross market. Using stolen sugar and Anne Bonny’s over-sweetened brew, they attract sailors and merchants alike—until a rival vendor accuses them of sugar theft, a crime punishable by transportation. Facing the constable, Edward spins a tale of the "Sugar Witch," a Barbados hag who curses their lemonade, and sells "anti-curse" potions (dyed with stolen cochineal) to the superstitious crowd. The deception works, earning them enough coin for future adventures while showcasing Edward’s early knack for manipulation and theatrics—traits that would later define Blackbeard’s reign of terror. The story blends historical details of Bristol’s sugar trade and maritime culture with a playful origin for history’s most notorious pirate, proving even legends start small.  
  This is the third of six audiobooks in the series and I do hope you enjoy this  instalment, and it's only $3, all subsequent will remain at that price. 
  I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, accordion, fiddle, harmonica and bango in a classical sea shanty jig. The closing music ends the tale on a similar jig and at about 2 minutes with the same musical instruments but more upbeat looking forward to the next episode.  
  The story itself runs to about 13 minutes is is narrated in my own voice.  
  I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
