Sinopsis

Twelve-year-old Foster knows in his gut that Dax Ganey, the man dating his widowed mother, is a bad seed. Then a mysterious stranger arrives at their Alabama farm, a former Army Ranger in Iraq rambling across the country, and Foster believes he has found an ally against Dax. The stranger proves a fascinating mentor, full of wisdom and secrets. And Dax soon has reason to resent not just him and Foster but also Foster's mother. A spurned Dax will be a dangerous enemy, but Foster is increasingly aware that the stranger is just as dangerous, if not more so.From the author of one of the most highly acclaimed children's survival adventures of the last decade comes this tautly wound new novel reminiscent of classic westerns, about a boy caught in the middle of a clash that may turn out to be his own battle to fight.This title has Common Core connections.

    Bestselling middle grade author Lisa Papademetriou is back with a playful, poignant story that will resonate with anyone who’s ever had to learn that love means accepting people—even yourself—for who they really are. 
    Callie never meant to let it go this far. Sure, she may have accidentally-on-purpose skipped a day at her fancy New York City prep school, but she never thought she’d skip the day after that! And the one after that . . . and . . . uh . . . the one after that. 
    But when everything in your real life is going wrong (fighting parents! bullied little brother! girls at school who just. don’t. get. it!) skipping school starts to look like a valid mental-health strategy. And when Callie runs into Cassius, a mysterious and prickly “unschooled” kid doing research at museums all across the city, it seems only natural for her to join him. Because museums are educational, which means they’re as good as going to class. Right? 
    Besides, school can wait. What can’t wait is the mystery of why her grandmother seems to wish she could travel back in time to 1986, or what she wants so much to relive there. As Cassius helps Callie see the world in a whole new light, she realizes that the people she loves are far from perfect—and that some family secrets shouldn’t be secret at all.

    The first in a brand-new sensationally spacey, action-packed and adventure-filled middle grade series written by the incredible Lorraine Gregory – perfect for fans of MG Leonard and David Baddiel! 
    Nothing exciting ever happens on twelve-year-old Danny’s estate. That is until he falls through a locker in his grandad’s workshop and finds himself in an Interdimensional Lost Property Office! And – even weirder – his new boss is a giant purple squid on a segway! 
    Now Danny, best mate Modge and annoying cousin Inaaya find themselves in charge of returning alien items to all corners of the universe. But someone – or something – is determined to stop them. And there’s NOTHING these evil aliens won’t stop at to achieve complete multi-dimensional domination . . . even trapping Danny and his friends on a planet a million light years away from Earth. 
    If the fate of the entire multiverse was in your hands, what would YOU do? 
    The magic of the story lies in the humorous and juvenile interactions of the kids with the monsters and alien technology they encounter. This science fiction narrative is a rollercoaster ride of interdimensional explorations and contact with alien species. 
    For fans of Christopher Edge (The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day), Katherine Rundell (The Explorer), Sharna Jackson (The Nine Night Mystery), Kevin Tsang (Sam Wu Is NOT Afraid of Ghosts!), and Copeland, Sam (The Teeny-Tiny Bear Behind).

    In the serene surroundings of Caesarea Philippi, nestled amid the rugged landscapes of northern Israel, Jesus and his disciples embarked on a journey that would lead them to a moment of profound revelation and truth. 
    As they walked along the dusty roads, Jesus turned to his disciples and asked them a question that would echo through the ages. 
    "Who do people say that I am?" he inquired, his eyes searching the faces of his closest followers. 
    The disciples exchanged glances, pondering the question carefully. They had heard many rumors and speculations about Jesus from the crowds that followed him - some believed him to be a prophet, others thought he was a great teacher or a revolutionary leader. 
    Finally, one of the disciples spoke up, his voice hesitant but earnest. "Some say you are John the Baptist, returned from the dead," he said. "Others say you are Elijah, or Jeremiah, or one of the prophets."
