  Giselle Boyer and her identical twin, Isabelle, are as close as sisters can be, even as their family seems to be unraveling. Then the Boyers have a tragic encounter that will shatter everyone’s world forever. 
   
  Giselle wakes up in the hospital, injured and unable to speak or move. Trapped in the prison of her own body, Giselle must revisit her past in order to understand how the people closest to her—her friends, her parents, and above all, Isabelle, her twin—have shaped and defined her. Will she allow her love for her family and friends to lead her to recovery? Or will she remain lost in a spiral of longing and regret? 
   
  Untwine is a spellbinding tale, lyrical and filled with love, mystery, humor, and heartbreak. Award-winning author Edwidge Danticat brings her extraordinary talent to this graceful and unflinching examination of the bonds of friendship, romance, family, the horrors of loss, and the strength we must discover in ourselves when all seems hopeless. 
   
  “While Danticat fully grounds Giselle in her identity as a Haitian-American teen in Miami, this gentle young artist could speak to any teen anywhere coping with a major loss.” —The Philadelphia Inquirer

  The Jungle Book

  "Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky."
  
  Enter the Seoni region of India, where a "man-cub" named Mowgli is raised by a pack of wolves. Under the watchful eyes of the wise black panther Bagheera and the sleepy brown bear Baloo, Mowgli learns the strict codes of conduct that keep the wild in balance. But the jungle is a place of peril; the tiger Shere Khan seeks the boy's life, and the lawless Bandar-log monkeys threaten the peace. Beyond the Mowgli stories, Kipling takes readers across the globe—from the heroic stand of a mongoose in Rikki-Tikki-Tavi to the frozen bravery of a white seal. These are timeless tales of courage, duty, and finding one's place in an unforgiving world.
  
  The "Man-Cub" Dilemma: The core of the book is Mowgli's struggle between his human nature and his lupine upbringing. Kipling expertly handles the tragedy of a boy who is "too human for the wolves and too wild for the humans," exploring the universal theme of searching for an identity that spans two worlds.
  
  The Philosophy of the Wild: Unlike many animal stories, Kipling's creatures are not mere caricatures. They live by the Law of the Jungle, a rigorous moral and physical code that emphasizes the strength of the pack over the individual. It is a philosophy that has been studied for over a century as a reflection of human social and political systems.
  
  Why It Is a Global Masterpiece: The Jungle Book remains an essential read because of its rhythmic, hypnotic prose and its deep respect for nature. It is an adventure that satisfies the imagination while posing serious questions about civilization, tradition, and what it truly means to be "free."

  Join Lenny and his best friends Sam and Jess in their hysterical hijinks. Expect animals on the loose, paranormal invasions, shut down schools and lots of laughs!
  
  
  It's Olden Days Day and Lenny is determined his class will win the competition. In fact he is certain of it because he's brought in something special ... a RAT! (They totally had those everywhere in the olden times.)
  
  
  But what he wasn't banking on was it escaping and leaving small, gruelly footprints all over the classroom and A LOT of screaming (because Lenny's rat is ACTUALLY a wild rat found by the back of the chip shop).
  
  
  Can the three kids round up the rat before more damage is done? Or will they end up in the headmaster's office, again. Maybe, but one thing is for certain, they're going to need a bigger net!
