“A swift-paced survival tale that’s a cool blend of Lord of the Flies and Journey to the Center of the Earth.” —School Library Journal “A sharp meditation on the seemingly universal difficulties of being young, smart, and uncertain.” —BCCB “A multifaceted journey from darkness to light.” —Kirkus Reviews Winner of the Red Maple Fiction Award A class field trips turns into an underground quest for survival in the latest middle grade novel from the author of Edgar Award winner OCDaniel. Mr. Baker’s eighth grade class thought they were in for a normal field trip to Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico. But when an earthquake hits, their field trip takes a terrifying turn. The students are plunged into an underground lake…and their teacher goes missing. They have no choice but to try and make their way back above ground, even though no one can agree on the best course of action. The darkness brings out everyone’s true self. Supplies dwindle and tensions mount. Pretty and popular Silvia does everything she can to hide her panic attacks, even as she tries to step up and be a leader. But the longer she’s underground, the more frequent and debilitating they become. Meanwhile, Eric has always been a social no one, preferring to sit at the back of the class and spend evenings alone. Now, he finds himself separated from his class, totally by himself underground. That is, until he meets an unexpected stranger. Told from three different points of view, this fast-paced adventure novel explores how group dynamics change under dire circumstances. Do the students of Mr. Baker’s class really know each other at all? Or do they just think they do? It turns out, it’s hard to hide in the dark.

#1 New York Times Bestseller From the mind of basketball legend and Academy Award–winning storyteller Kobe Bryant comes this radically original portrait of five young basketball players, one enlightening coach, and the awesome transformative power of the game. Filled with insights about the mental stamina and emotional clarity that peak performance requires, this is an indispensable story for young athletes, coaches, educators, and anyone interested in the astonishing potential of team sports to unlock individual growth. THE GAME WILL NEVER BE THE SAME Magic doesn’t seem possible for the West Bottom Badgers. They’re the lowest-ranked basketball team in their league, and they live in the poorest neighborhood in Dren. Nobody expects them to succeed at anything. Plus, every kid on the team has secret struggles of his own. When a new coach named Professor Wizenard arrives on the first day of training camp, the Badgers can’t explain the magical-seeming things they see and hear. Every player experiences unique and strange visions—visions that challenge everything they thought they knew about basketball, and about their lives and their secrets off the court. To survive the increasingly intense ordeals of training, the Badgers will need to take unimaginable risks, learn to trust their teammates, and confront the darkness within themselves.

“Readers will appreciate [Sara] as good literary company even as they develop sympathy for her struggles.” —BCCB “It’s the vivid, insightful depiction of Sara’s internal struggles that readers will remember.” —Booklist “A must-buy.” —School Library Journal (starred review) In this prequel to the Edgar Award–winning OCDaniel, fan-favorite Sara quests for “normal” and finds something even better along the way. Sara’s Rules to be Normal 1. Stop taking your pills 19. Make a friend 137. Don’t put mayonnaise on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Sara wants one thing: to be normal. What she has instead are multiple diagnoses from Dr. Ring. Sara’s constant battle with False Alarm—what she calls panic attacks—and other episodes cause her to isolate herself. She rarely speaks, especially not at school, and so she doesn’t have any friends. But when she starts group therapy she meets someone new. Talkative and outgoing Erin doesn’t believe in “normal,” and Sara finds herself in unfamiliar territory: at the movies, at a birthday party, and with someone to tell about her crush—in short, with a friend. But there’s more to Erin than her cheerful exterior, and Sara begins to wonder if helping Erin will mean sacrificing their friendship.

Vencedor do prêmio Edgar de melhor livro juvenil (2017) e do prêmio Silver Birch (2017). Coleção Caindo na Real DANIEL ACREDITA QUE NÃO É NORMAL. Daniel é o reserva do time de futebol da escola, e isso significa que ele é basicamente o garoto da água. Ele gasta todo o tempo dos treinos arrumando e organizando os copos para seu time – e rezando para que ninguém perceba. Na verdade, Daniel passa a maior parte do tempo esperando que ninguém note seus hábitos estranhos – ele os chama de Choques. Eles incluem ter uma lista de números "ruins" e evitar escrevê-los, por exemplo, ou ligar e desligar o interruptor dezenas de vezes até se sentir bem de novo. Daniel acha que é maluco e esconde essa impressão sobre si mesmo, principalmente de seus pais, seu melhor amigo Max e Raya, a garota por quem é secretamente apaixonado. Sua vida fica ainda mais estranha quando ele recebe um bilhete misterioso com um pedido de ajuda assinado pela "Colega das Crianças das Estrelas", seja lá o que isso significa. E de repente, Daniel, que era um zé-ninguém na escola, se vê dentro da investigação de um grande mistério. Este livro é sobre se sentir diferente e deslocado e encontrar aquelas pessoas que conseguem enxergar e entender você de verdade.

Wesley King shares a compilation of illustrated life experiences express in the form of poetry.

Since Darwin published his theory of evolution, the Church has been under constant and ever-increasing pressure to compromise the truths of Creation. Disregarding scientific evidence that brings the theory into serious doubt, some Christians have proven all too accommodating in attempting to gain acceptance as viable scientists, paleontologists, archaeologists, professors of biology, geology, anthropology, etc. Theistic Evolution has now crept into Christian colleges and universities. Dr C. Wesley King offers a serious examination and challenge to this union of twisted theology and science, presenting facts and naming names. He reveals how the doctrine threatens to undermine the very foundations of the Christian faith; by calling into question the biblical account of creation, the lordship of the Creator, the divinity of Jesus as established by his death and resurrection, the entire Faith is at risk. While strongly supporting the scriptures, "The Battle for Genesis 1 and 2" is a compendium of scientific observation and irrefutable logic. Couched in layman''s terms, the volume goes to the very root of the modern assertion of Theistic Evolution and draws the "red line" that must not be crossed if members of the Church are going to remain on the side of truth.
