  Own Voices author Nizrana Farook makes her middle grade debut in a daring  
  tale of friendship, risk, and reward, all set against the lush backdrop of Sri Lanka. 
  Chaya, a nobleman’s rebellious, outspoken, no-nonsense daughter, just can’t  
  resist the shiny temptations the king’s palace has to offer. But playing Robin Hood  
  for her impoverished community doesn’t come without risks, and when Chaya  
  steals the queen’s jewels from a bedside table—a messy getaway jeopardizes the  
  life of a close friend. 
  After an equally haphazard prison break, Chaya barely escapes on the king’s  
  prized elephant! With leeches and revolution lurking in the jungle, Chaya leads  
  her companions on a thrilling adventure. After leaving her village as a thief, can  
  she return as a hero? Or will Chaya’s sticky fingers be the beginning—or the end— 
  of everything for the intrepid gang? 
  Own Voices debut author Nizrana Farook spins a page-turning middle grade tale in  
  a lush, fictional Sri Lankan setting. Just right for adventure fans, the book explores  
  themes of friendship and loyalty, risk and reward, and heroism.

  But all does not go according to plan. Sophia doesn’t make the Waves softball team, and her best friend is suddenly more interested in boys than Sophia. As the middle school blues set in and her family is pulled in different directions, Sophia  
  must reach deep down and find a little UMPH—the difference between being good and great—to figure out her own place, on and off the field.

  Lis Hartel became paralyzed after contracting polio in 1944. Her dreams of riding horses and competing in the sport of dressage were shattered. After months in the hospital, doctors told her she'd never ride again. Lis tried anyway. But how do you stay on a horse without using your legs? How do you give the subtle cues needed in dressage with limited mobility? With hard work—and an unlikely horse named Jubilee! After years of training together and creating a new way of communicating, Lis and Jubilee danced into the competition ring—and eventually all the way to the Olympics. Lis Hartel was the first woman with a disability ever to win an Olympic medal and the first woman to stand equally beside men on the Olympic winners' podium in any sport.
