Toot and Tut: With Nuttin’ in Kommon

Sinossi

Long ago, Toot, Tut, and Mum were just like you and me. They laughed, cried, sneezed, and passed gas just like the rest of us. Then, something terrible happened: they died.  Their father tried to bring them back with the help of an underachieving alchemist, but the alchemist bungled it and made them immortal instead!
 
Now, they laugh, cry, sneeze, and pass gas while wrapped in old, thick bandages. They’re 100 percent authentic mummies. For thousands of years, they have roamed quietly, only escaping their sarcophagi in the cover of night. Still, it isn’t all bad for the mummified family. They get to see the world—one museum at a time—and learn everything they never had time to learn before they died. Plus, they’re together. But, when Tut, the serious one, and Toot, the mischievous one, get into trouble in their new museum home, the mummies learn more about today’s world than they ever thought they would. And it might just ruin their best-kept secret.
 
What Mum, Toot, and Tut thought was just another temporary home turned into the mummies’ worst nightmare. After having their identities discovered, they have to put their trust in a couple of nighttime security guards and the museum’s curator to find their way out of this mess before things go too far!

Falling Over Sideways

Jordan Sonnenblick

A girl navigates the chaos of eighth grade while handling a family tragedy in this funny and honest novel by the author of Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie.  Claire’s life is a joke . . . but she’s not laughing. While her friends seem to be leaping forward, she's dancing in the same place. The mean girls at school are living up to their mean name, and there’s a boy, Ryder, who’s just as bad, if not worse. And at home, nobody’s really listening to her—if anything, they seem to be more in on the joke than she is.  Then into all of this (not-very-funny-to-Claire) comedy comes something intense and tragic—while her dad is talking to her at the kitchen table, he falls over with a medical emergency. Suddenly the joke has become very serious—and the only way Claire, her family, and her friends are going to get through it is if they can find a way to make it funny again. Praise for Falling Over Sideways“It’s a powerful and profound look at a family coping with unexpected change.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review“Authentic, funny, dramatic, fantastic.” —Kirkus Reviews “[Sonnenblick]does an exceedingly good job developing his adolescent characters . . . I would highly recommend this novel for any collection serving a middle school audience.” —School Library Journal
