  In the companion to her acclaimed So Done, Paula Chase follows best friends Simp and Rollie as their friendship is threatened by the pressures of basketball, upcoming auditions, middle school, and their growing involvement in the local drug ring. 
  Dough Boys is a memorably vivid story about the complex friendship between two African American boys whose lives are heading down very different paths. For fans of Jason Reynolds’s Ghost and Rebecca Stead’s Goodbye Stranger. 
  Deontae “Simp” Wright has big plans for his future. Plans that involve basketball, his best friend, Rollie, and making enough money to get his mom and four younger brothers out of the Cove, their low-income housing project. 
  Long term, this means the NBA. Short term, it means being a dough boy—getting paid to play lookout and eventually moving up the rungs of the neighborhood drug operation with Rollie as his partner. 
  Roland “Rollie” Matthews used to love playing basketball. He loved the rhythm of the game, how he came up with his best drumbeats after running up and down the court. But playing with the elite team comes with extra, illegal responsibilities, and Rollie isn't sure he's down for that life. The new talented-and-gifted program, where Rollie has a chance to audition for a real-life go-go band, seems like the perfect excuse to stop being a dough boy. But how can he abandon his best friend? 
  Paula Chase explores universal themes of friendship and budding romance, while also exploring complex issues that affect many young teens. Full of basketball, friendship, and daily life in a housing project, this universal story is perfect for fans of Jason Reynolds’s Track series, Jewell Parker Rhodes’s Ghost Boys, and Chris Crutcher.

  Sparky's Big Adventure: When Lava Trolls and Elves Break Dance 
  Meet Sparky, a glowing Lava Troll who's as curious as a cat with a puzzle box. Sparky’s got a big job ahead—he needs to find a special crystal that can keep both his underground home and the world above ground safe and sound. But hold onto your hats, because that's just the start! 
  Instead of heading straight home after his first quest, Sparky finds himself in the Elven Kingdom. Imagine a place so green and magical it's like a forest had a baby with a rainbow! There he meets Princess Aurora, a young elf with a mind of her own, and her pet lava worm, Slægur, who's basically a cuddly firework. 
  Together, they form the ultimate adventure squad. They explore dark caves, solve riddles from glowing cave spirits, and even have a dance battle with a talking rock! Yep, you read that right—a talking rock that wants to dance! 
  Set in the cool landscapes of Iceland (which is actually pretty green, go figure), this story mixes laughs, action, and heart into one epic tale. It's about the power of friendship, the fun in being different, and the wild places our curiosity can take us. 
  So if you've ever wanted to go on an adventure where the heroes glow, the princesses are tough, and even rocks have dance moves, this is the audiobook for you!

  Do You Remember Your First Love? 
  The butterflies in your stomach, the sleepless nights, and that all-consuming feeling that takes over your entire being. Join Stig as he journeys back to the summer of 1986 and steps into the heart of Malta – and the heart of life itself. A holiday where the bonds between the boys are as strong as the scorching Mediterranean sun, and where love appears like an unexpected wave, washing everything else away. 
  This moving tale, based on a true story, invites you into a time and place where everything seemed possible. A time when the golden walls of Mdina held secret whispers, and a young boy’s first encounter with love left an everlasting mark. 
  Woven with humor, friendship, and blossoming emotions, this story reminds us that the most important moments in life never fade – they live on within us. 
  A book about the magic of youth, the first great love, and a summer never to be forgotten. Get ready to relive your own first crush as you’re swept away by the beauty of Malta and the memories that never fade. 
  "Do you remember those holiday crushes? Those moments when you wished time would stand still. Meeting a girl or boy who might have come from a completely different part of the country – or maybe even from abroad. Something that left a lasting impression. These very feelings are at the heart of Stig Ulrichsen’s charming and entertaining new book. It’s the perfect read for a relaxing afternoon at the beach – whether you’re in Malta, Mallorca, or at a campsite in Southern Jutland. A story that leaves the reader in a cheerful mood, perhaps sending you back in time to your own youth." - Jacob Krogsoe 
  "A great book – I’m especially impressed by the way you capture the era and the atmosphere so vividly that I can not only feel it, but also reflect parts of my own life in it. It’s quite sensory. And above all, it’s a deeply moving story." – Jan Eriksen
