  In the Heights meets Front Desk in this heartwarming and funny story about the friendship between a bodega owner's anxious kid and her newly adopted mischievous kitten. 
    
  Everyone thinks Yesenia is calm, collected, and crushing it. But really, her stomach is constantly a ball of nerves. With parents who left their home in the Dominican Republic to make a better life for their kids, and three perfect, over-achieving older sisters, Yesenia can't let anyone know about the anxiety that’s causing her to fall behind in school. When her doctor tells her parents that taking care of an animal could help, little did they know her newly adopted kitten would be such a mischievous influence. 
    
  All kitten Candy can think about is adventure—and what’s she supposed to do when her owner is cooped up inside helping at the bodega? But when Candy escapes and gets lost in New York City for a night, she realizes maybe the big open world isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Can these two find a way out of feeling so lost, as long they’re together?

  When the girls are banned from the five-a-side tournament, young Sikh footballer Bobby Bains rallies his teammates to make a stand in this uplifting tale of solidarity from Bali Rai. 
  Football-mad Bobby and his friend Maisie are excited to hear about a new five-a-side tournament – especially as it’s happening on Diwali, or Bandi Chhor Divas as Sikhs call it! 
  After getting their teams together, however, Maisie is told she’s not allowed to take part. Hers is the only girls’ side to have entered and they’re not allowed to play against the boys. How unfair is that? 
  Bobby can’t believe it, and he comes up with a plan to make a stand. But will he be able to convince anyone to join him? 
  Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8. 
  In this children’s fiction story, sports become the spark for a wider social challenge at school, as Bobby draws on community support and the values of faith and religion to push back against unfairness. With education and recreation themes and a cast of neighbours, it’s a satisfying read for kids and juvenile audiences, including reluctant readers and teen/teenage young adult fans. 
  For fans of Ladybird (Peppa Pig), Emily Barr (The One Memory of Flora Banks), Helen Holwill (Penguin Readers Level 7), T.Z. Layton (The Academy V), and R. J. Palacio (White Bird).
