The Shiver Series - Shiver Linger Forever Sinner

Maggie Stiefvater

Sinossi

The complete New York Times–bestselling series that began with the acclaimed romance, Shiver, “a lyrical tale of alienated werewolves and first love” (Publishers Weekly). In Shiver, meet Sam. He’s not just a normal boy—he has a secret. During the summer he walks and talks as a human, but when the cold comes, he runs with his pack as a wolf. Grace has spent years watching the wolves in the woods behind her house—but never dreamed that she would fall in love with one of them. Linger tells the story of Sam and Grace’s struggle to stay together, and the dangerous secret Grace must keep from everyone, including her parents. In Forever, wolves are being hunted, which means the stakes are even higher for Grace and Sam and the wolf pack. With Sinner comes the long awaited story of Cole, a wolf wrestling with his own demons, and his attempt to win back Isabel Culper For Grace, Sam, and Cole and Isabel, life is harrowing and euphoric, enticing and alarming. As their world falls apart, love is what lingers. But can it be enough? “Beautiful and moving.” —School Library Journal on Shiver This sequel’s poetic prose skillfully captures the four teens’ longings for love, forgetting, remembering, righting wrongs and life itself.” —Kirkus Reviews on Linger

The Winter's Claw

C.C. Reverie

Forced to flee the city of Happyland, Pepper, a stray dog in search for his lost master, takes shelter in a tool shed situated in Tucker’s family backyard. His hopes to remain undetected are ruined when one of the Tucker kids stumbles upon him and takes him inside, as a pet. 
For a few days, Pepper enjoys a sweet and safe life. He is groomed, fed and loved. But when he sees his mugshot grinning from some lost-dog posters glued to the lamp poles in the street, he smells trouble. His biggest enemies, the mutts of Tank’s gang, would track him down for sure. 
It didn’t even cross his mind that he may also be found by his master. And before long, a man rings the doorbell at Tucker’s, presenting himself as the dog’s owner. Pepper should be happy, but is he? 
The Winter’s Claw follows Pepper and his friends - Puppanela, a female dog, Wizzy, a wizard mouse, and Hank, a newspaper journalist, - on a journey from heaven to hell, in which the party takes on a fight against human malice.  
The Winter’s Claw, the second instalment of the series Adventures in Happyland, is a survival story about a reluctant hero and the quest of his life.

Fun on an epic scale for kids 8-14! The Dudes are a diverse group of modern preteen boys with awesome ideas for IRL action. These five best friends find clever ways to have fun and, incidentally, turn their suburban neighborhood upside down. Voice actor, Mark Sanderlin's ironic lilt delivers the laughs!Praise for (series starter) Save the Dudes:
"With one priceless, laugh-out-loud scenario after another, the mother and son team of Johnson and Reynolds delivers a fine tale...
"...the story is given depth by emotional challenges each friend must face, described with subtlety.
"Readers will likely be eager to read the next adventure.
"Hilarious comic mayhem, rounded out by affection and insight." --Kirkus ReviewsThis diary of Dude-approved adventures is filled with classic boy fun like: battles, corny jokes, zombies, treehouses, secret codes, and summer fun! Appeals to kids who hate a tacked-on message or ripped-from-the-headlines problem. If they like Beverly Cleary's Henry Huggins or Barbara Robinson's The Worst Best Christmas Pageant Ever, they'll love the Dudes! Lacking in butts, farts, and crude humor, this series is perfect for fans of Gordon Korman, Dave Pilkey, Jeffrey Brown, Mike Lupica, Gary Paulsen, and Kwame Alexander.
Makes a great family read-aloud too.
