  Set against the backdrop of Caribbean folklore, Lisa Stringfellow’s spellbinding middle grade debut tells of a grieving girl and a vengeful mermaid and will enchant readers who loved Kacen Callender’s Hurricane Child or Christian McKay Heidicker’s Scary Stories for Young Foxes.  
  Ever since her mother’s death, Kela feels every bit as broken as the shards of glass, known as “mermaid’s tears,” that sparkle on the Caribbean beaches of St. Rita. So when Kela and her friend Lissy stumble across an ancient-looking comb in a coral cave, with all she’s already lost, Kela can’t help but bring home her very own found treasure.  
  Far away, deep in the cold ocean, the mermaid Ophidia can feel that her comb has been taken. And despite her hatred of all humans, her magic requires that she make a bargain: the comb in exchange for a wish. 
  But what Kela wants most is for her mother to be alive. And a wish that big will exact an even bigger price… 
  Don’t miss the novel that Newbery-winning author Kelly Barnhill calls “one of the most promising works of fiction in a long time”!

  Benjamin Franklin was a proud citizen of America all his life. And a proud subject of the British Empire. Until he wasn’t. 
   
  Under British rule Franklin prospered as a printer, newspaper publisher, and writer. 
  • He served in the Pennsylvania Assembly that made laws for the colony. 
  • He led campaigns to build the first college, library, hospital, and fire department for Philadelphians. 
  • He even proposed a closer political union of Britain and its American colonies to create a stronger Empire. 
   
  But when the British Parliament began chipping away at the colonies’ rights to govern themselves, Americans rebelled. At first Franklin used all his wit and wisdom to patch up the quarrel. When that failed, his dream of a stronger Empire died. 
   
  But a new dream was born—an independent America. 
   
  Gretchen Woelfle uses Franklin’s witty and wise words to portray Benjamin Franklin’s long winding road to revolution.
