Sinopse

"Demons and Orchids" is a charming novella telling a pair of young Mark and Chloe on their rocky life path. Timely and stunning novel about the drawing between two in a middle class society or rather shyly poverty will absolutely embed into your heart. Both living in big city, owning almost nothing. Their friendship uncover a deeper secret of each other. The streets ceased to seem a gloomy, the simple things around have taken on a certain meaning even. Liminality generates anxiety and confusion by blurring, or a moment out of time. A stirring narrative, utterly revealing their unspoken dreams, desires, hopes. This literature is far from the mainstream, and partly colder than a witch's tits. But you were searching to read something really new, something that would leave a mark on your soul. You hold in your hands exactly what you have been missing today, a sincerely insightful, subtle and fascinating novel.

    Here is a charming collection of stories, mostly set in New England in the 1800s, that depict how Christmas was celebrated then. 
     
    Seems that Christmas was not always a tree with dozens, if not hundreds, of gifts spread around the tree. Consumerism not being then what it is today, the gift might simply be a letter from a long-missing loved one, or simply the return through a blizzard of a husband who had left only hours ago on a mission of mercy. The relief of the anxiety of waiting for the person or merely news that the loved one had survived was often the best gift to be had. 
     
    There are sleigh rides, caroling through the night and selfless giving to fill one with the warmth and joy of the season. A true old-fashioned holiday treasure.

    Perfect for fans of Bridge to Terabithia and Walk Two Moons, this debut middle grade novel is the story of two girls and the unforgettable summer in which they learn about true friendship and loss.                                               
    Annie has been promised a summer of freedom in the country. Freedom from a difficult school year, freedom from her fake “friends” back in the city, and, most of all, freedom from her mom’s life-governing spreadsheets and rigid schedules. 
    When Annie meets California, who is visiting her grandfather’s farm, it seems she has found the perfect partner for the summer she’s always craved. Especially when California offers Annie a real-life adventure: if she and Annie can find the ponies her mom rode as a girl, surely it will remind her mom how wonderful the farm is—and fix what’s broken between her mom and her grandfather. 
    But Annie’s summer of freedom is sprinkled with secrets, and everything she has learned about bravery and love will be put to the test when the truth behind the ultimate secret changes her life forever.

Black history begins thousands of years ago with the many cultures and people of the African continent. Through portraits of ten heroic figures, bestselling author Tracey Baptiste takes readers on an empowering, energetic journey through time to meet some of the great leaders and thinkers whose vision built nations and shaped the course of history:  Menes: Creator of Dynasties  Merneith: A Queen Erased  Imhotep: From Peasant to God  Aesop: The Wisest Man in the Ancient World  Hannibal Barca: Unparalleled Military Strategist  Terence: North African Playwright  Amanirenas: Warrior, Diplomat, Queen  Tin Hinan: Founder of a City on the Dunes  Mansa Musa: The Richest Man of All Time  Queen Idia: Kingmaker  Illustrator Hillary D.

This is a great beginner’s guide to pre-colonial Africa.” —Ibram X. Kendi, National Book Award-winning author of Stamped from the Beginning and How to Be an Antiracist
