Sinopsis

New York Times–Bestselling Authors: “This gripping fantasy for the middle-grade set delivers magic and delightful dollops of ick.” —Kirkus Reviews 
 
Ever since they moved to the town of Portland, many bizarre things have happened to Jaide and Jack Shield. The twins have discovered their own magical powers—and have seen how they can go horribly wrong. They have met cats who talk and humans who keep silent about deep, dark secrets. And they have begun their fight against a deadly force known only as The Evil. 
 
Still, Jaide and Jack have yet to meet the strangest resident of Portland. It’s a creature that only comes out at night, a beast that defies human description. Jaide and Jack have never seen it . . . but they’re about to. And when they do, destruction and disaster won’t be too far away . . .

    The inspiring story behind the national anthem and the American flag comes alive in this “page-turning narrative [with] generous archival illustrations” (Kirkus, starred review). 
     
      
     
    “O say can you see” begins one of the most recognizable songs in the US. Originally a poem by Francis Scott Key, the national anthem tells the story of the American flag rising high above a fort after a night of intense battle during the War of 1812. But there is much more to the story than what is sung at ball games.  
     
    What was this battle about? Whose bombs were bursting, and why were rockets glaring? Who sewed those broad stripes and bright stars? Why were free black soldiers fighting on both sides? Who was Francis Scott Key anyway, and how did he have such a close view?  
     
    An illustrated history for young readers, Star-Spangled tells the whole story from the perspectives of different key figures—both American and British—of this obscure but important battle. The book includes an author’s note, a timeline, a glossary, endnotes, a bibliography, and an index.

    A boy faces amnesia as he seeks to end the monstrous threat to his city in this finale to a fantasy trilogy by a New York Times–bestselling author. 
     
    Three magic Doors are the only way in and out of the walled city of Weld. The golden Door is grand and majestic—a Door for heroes. The silver Door hints at mystery and knowledge—a door for schemers. But the plain wooden Door has always held the most appeal for Rye and his friend Sonia. And now, at last, they have the chance to open it. 
     
    The city of Weld is under attack by skimmers, flying beasts that terrorize the night. If Rye and Sonia can’t discover the enemy sending the skimmers in time, Weld has no hope. Twice before, Rye and Sonia left Weld on a quest to save it. Twice before, they failed. Now there’s just one Door left—one last chance to save the people of Weld. Rye and Sonia know everything depends on them. But nothing can prepare them for the horror that waits behind the wooden Door. 
     
    Praise for The Third Door 
     
    “Readers who have come to love the plucky Rye and determined Sonia will be eager for this story. . . . The plot is tied up in an unexpected but very satisfying way. Fans of Rodda’s Deltora Quest series will be thrilled by the tie-ins here. New fans can enjoy this installment without any prior knowledge of the land of Deltora; though they’ll have a richer experience if they’ve read the first two volumes.” —Booklist
