  Growing up disabled can be an isolating experience. As much as you might be surrounded by loving and well-meaning friends and family, chances are no one close to you is going through this alongside you . . . until now!
  
  
  From navigating sports at school, to facing the confusion of getting given free stuff all the time, to juggling hospital trips alongside your social life, this anthology of firsthand experiences of childhood disability will be a welcome companion for disabled children. For non-disabled children it provides a welcome own-voice perspective and will help build empathy and understanding. A very powerful, much-needed book.
  
  
  Edited by James Catchpole, Lucy Catchpole and Jen Campbell. With contributions from Ali Abbas, Polly Atkin, Imani Barbarin, Jen Campbell, James Catchpole, Christa Couture, Carly Findlay, M. Leona Godin, Eugene Grant, Jan Grue, Matilda Feyisayo Ibini, Ilya Kaminsky, Sora J.

  In this debut spooky adventure, Jerry and her trusty wheelchair move into a creepy motel at the edge of the woods where nothing is as it seems. When her mom disappears, it’s up to Jerry to brave the forest and its demons so she can save what’s left of her family. 
  Ever since her dad died, 11-year-old Jerry Blum and her mom have bounced around dead-end towns, staying in a series of rundown motels where her mother picks up housekeeping work and Jerry can get around in her wheelchair.  
  But the Slumbering Giant motel is different. Lights blink on and off in the surrounding trees, a mysterious radio station plays only at midnight, and people disappear into the woods, never to been seen again. Not to mention that Jerry’s mom keeps vanishing to do “special work” that she refuses to discuss. When her mother doesn’t come home one morning, Jerry springs into action. 
  Luckily, she’s not alone. Paul, a pocket-size imaginary dragon, and Chapel, a new friend with a penchant for the supernatural, join Jerry’s search for her missing mom. But along the way Jerry discovers her mother’s terrible secret: she’s not a housekeeper at all; in fact, she’s been defending the town from demons that have been haunting it for generations. 
  Armed with nothing but a Ren Faire sword and a backpack, Jerry and her friends venture into the forbidden woods to save Jerry’s mother. But the “demons” hiding there aren’t what they seem, and Jerry must unravel the truth behind the town’s legend, or risk losing what’s left of her family.

  Do we get to choose? 
  The school year is almost over, and I’ve got a few projects to wrap up before I can relax and enjoy the break. Thanks to a clumsy mishap, I’m all out of holiday cheer. We’ve also gotten more bad news about Theo, but I’m determined to help. I’m not sure if it will change things. It’s hard to tell if our destiny is really our own, or if we’re being pushed down a path by an outside force. 
  After discovering Bertrand’s newest secret, I don’t know if I trust the system anymore. I want to believe that prophets truly can make a difference, but can I?

  A broken rule. A stolen friend. A quiet faerie who must risk everything to bring her back. 
  Bobbin was never the kind of faerie to cause trouble. But when her best friend is kidnapped by a mysterious thief and the faerie queen refuses to help, Bobbin has no choice but to set out on her own. 
  With only a gabby guide and her stubborn hope, Bobbin journeys deep into tangled woods and peculiar lands, determined to find her friend. But the thief is collecting magical things—and faeries like Heddy are rare and powerful prizes. 
  To succeed, Bobbin must brave strange magic, unravel forgotten secrets, and discover a strength she never knew she had. 
  A lyrical retelling of Rumpelstiltskin, perfect for readers who love gentle magic, fierce friendship, and enduring heroines. 
  Great for fans of The Girl Who Drank the Moon and Tuesdays at the Castle.
