  Perfect for fans of Fish in a Tree and Wonder, this uplifting debut novel from Mandy Davis follows space-obsessed Lester Musselbaum as he experiences the challenges of his first days of public school: making friends, facing bullies, finding his "thing," and accidentally learning of his autism-spectrum diagnosis. 
   
   
   
  Lester's first days as a fifth grader at Quarry Elementary School are not even a little bit like he thought they would be—the cafeteria is too loud for Lester's ears, there are too many kids, and then there's the bully. 
   
   
   
  Lester was always home-schooled, and now he's shocked to be stuck in a school where everything just seems wrong. That's until he hears about the science fair, which goes really well for Lester! This is it. The moment where I find out for one-hundred percent sure that I won. 
   
   
   
  But then things go a bit sideways, and Lester has to find his way back. A touching peek into the life of a sensitive autism-spectrum boy facing the everydayness of elementary school, Superstar testifies that what you can do isn't nearly as important as who you are.

  Transformation - A Monster Took...

  Transformation is a Gothic short story by Mary Shelley that explores pride, temptation, and the dangerous bargains people make with themselves. It follows Guido, a young man undone by arrogance, who encounters a grotesque dwarf offering him a terrible trade — one that will give him power and revenge at the cost of his very identity. The tale blends moral fable with supernatural unease, showing how a single reckless choice can unmake a life. Shelley uses atmosphere, confession, and shifting identity rather than overt horror, creating a story that feels more like a warning whispered from experience. 
  Though brief, Transformation carries the same concerns that run through Shelley’s larger work: the fragility of the self, the consequences of unchecked impulses, and the thin line between the human and the monstrous. Its power comes not from shock but from recognition — the sense that Guido’s downfall begins inside him, long before the supernatural enters the room. 
  Mary Shelley (1797–1851) was an English novelist and essayist best known as the author of Frankenstein, a book that helped shape both science fiction and modern horror. The daughter of philosophers Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin, she grew up among writers and radicals, later traveling through Europe with the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. Across her novels, short stories, and journals, she explored grief, ambition, invention, and moral responsibility. Works like The Last Man, Mathilda, and Transformation show the breadth of her voice beyond Frankenstein. Shelley wrote in a time when women authors were often dismissed, yet her ideas outlived the age that doubted her. Today she is regarded as one of the foundational figures of speculative literature.
