  Lupita, the oldest of eight siblings, is used to taking the lead—and staying busy behind the scenes to help keep everyone together. But when she discovers Mami has been diagnosed with cancer, Lupita is terrified by the possibility of losing her mother, the anchor of their close-knit Mexican American  
  family. Suddenly Lupita must face a whole new set of challenges, with new roles to play, and no one is handing her the script. 
   
  In the midst of juggling high school classes, finding her voice as an actress, and dealing with friends who don’t always understand, Lupita desperately wants to support Mami in whatever way she can. While Papi is preoccupied with caring for Mami, Lupita takes charge of her siblings. As Lupita struggles  
  to keep the family afloat, she escapes the chaos at home by writing in the shade of a mesquite tree.  
   
  Overwhelmed by change, she seeks refuge in the healing power of words. 
   
  Told with honest emotion in evocative free verse, Lupita’s journey is both heartwrenching and hopeful. Under the Mesquite is an empowering story about the testing of family bonds, the strength of a teenage girl navigating pain and hardship with surprising resilience, and the kind of love that cannot be uprooted.

  A magical re-telling of one of the most-beloved fairy tales, which no child’s library should be without! 
  The Little Mermaid is curious to see the world above the water, but it’s forbidden. One day, when nobody is is looking, she slips above the waves and falls in love with a prince. Longing to see him again, she asks the Sea Witch to help her become human. But, for Sea Witch’s spell to work, the Little Mermaid must make a difficult choice . . . Will she ever see the prince again? 
  Based on the original story by Hans Christian Andersen, this exquisite re-imagining of the classic fairy tale, loved by generations, comes ahead of the highly anticipated Disney live-action movie, The Little Mermaid. 
  Sarah Gibb's The Little Mermaid is a prize-winning, top-rated children's book that beautifully adapts the original story into a short, multicultural narrative. This juvenile fiction is a testament to Gibb's ability to weave folklore and diversity into a compelling tale. 
  For fans of Kallie George (Heartwood Hotel), Sophie Blackall (If You Come to Earth), Jessica Courtney-Tickle (The Story Orchestra), Kelly Jordan (The Little Blue Cottage), and Kinuko Y. Craft (The Twelve Dancing Princesses).
