Son
Lois Lowry
*"Written with powerful, moving simplicity, Claire's story stands on its own, but as the
final volume in this iconic quartet, it holistically reunites characters, reprises
provocative socio-political themes, and offers a transcending message of tolerance and
hope. Bravo!"Kirkus, starred review

Told in three parts, Lois Lowrys Soncombines elements fromthe first three novels in
her Giver Quartet into a breathtaking, thought-provoking narrative that wrestles with
ideas of human freedom. Thrust again into the dark, claustrophobic world of The Giver,
readers will meet an intriguing new heroine, fourteen-year-old Claire. Jonas from The
Giver is here, too, and Kira, the heroine of Gathering Blue. In a final clash between good
and evil, a new hero emerges.
Lois Lowry is a two-time Newbery Medal winner for Number the Stars (1990) and The Giver
(1994), the first dystopian novel in a quartet that includes Gathering Blue, Messenger, and, as of
fall 2012, Son. She now divides her time between Cambridge, Massachusetts, anda
1769farmhouse in Maine. Visit her website at www.loislowry.com.
The fourth and final book in the futuristic Giver Quartet by
the Newbery Medal author Lois Lowry, now available in trade
paperback.

Katy and the Big Snow Lap Board Book
Virginia Lee Burton
Bright, vigorous pictures with plenty of action and endless detail portray Katy at work
for the Highway Department of the City of Geoppolis. Horn Book

Katy the snowplow was always waiting for her big chance to help. But with winters that
usually didnt hold a lot of snow, Katy didnt have much opportunity to shine. Then a
blizzard blankets the city and everyone is relying on Katy for help. This tale from the
Caldecott Medal winner Virginia Lee Burton is an enduring winter favorite! Now with
large sturdy pages, excellent for reading aloud with little ones. Look for the companion
oversize board book Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel.
Virginia Lee Burton (19091968) was the talented author and illustrator of some of the most
enduring books ever written for children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for The Little
House, Burton included in her books heroes and happy endings, lively illustrations, and a dash of
nostalgia.
The classic story by the Caldecott winner Virginia Lee Burton is

Do

Axolotl: They aren't feathersthey're gills! They let me breathe underwater.

Let's face it. Even as babies, we humans pay close attention to faces. Observing another
person's features and expressions tells us whether they are happy, angry, excited, or
sad. And when we look at an animal, it's hard not to imagine that its face is
communicating human feelings. This isn't true, of course. Squinty eyes, an upturned
mouth, or another odd expression is probably there because, in some way, it helps that
animal survive.
Packed with many coolfacts and visuals on where certain animals live and what they
eat, this book capturestwenty-fivehumorousand very trueexplanations of why
animals look the way they do in order to exist in this world.

The Misadventures of Sweetie Pie
Chris Van Allsburg
From two-time Caldecott winner Chris Van Allsburg, creator of Jumanji and The Polar
Express, comes a poignant story of one hamsters struggle with destiny. Being a pet store
hamster isnt much fun for Sweetie Pie, but life in human homes proves downright
perilous. As Sweetie Pie longingly gazes out of his cage at the squirrels frolicking in the
trees, he wonders if hell ever have the chance to feel the wind in his fur. Allsburgs
expressive, soft-hued illustrations artfully capture a hamsters-eye view of the wide and
wonderful world where maybe, just maybe, Sweetie Pie could someday run free.
Chris Van Allsburg, a two-time Caldecott artist (and winner of a Caldecott Honor for The
Garden of Abdul Gasazi), was awarded the Regina Medal for lifetime achievement in childrens
literature. He lives in Massachusetts with his wife and two children. Visit his website at
www.chrisvanallsburg.com.
Chris Van Allsburg shares the memorable story of an
adventurous hamster searching for the right home.

Leopardpox!
Orna Landau, illustrated by Omer Hoffmann
Leopardpox! shouts Mama when her little girl becomes a frisky leopard cub. Now
what? Mama and Sadies three brothers take Sadie to the doctor, who says, Im not a
doctor for leopards. Then they try the vet, who says, If this is a leopard cub, its a
healthy leopard, but ifthis is alittle girl, then she is very ill. The zoo would be happy to
keep her, but no one likes the idea of leaving her behind. No, decides Mama, theyll
take care of her at home, where rest and kindness work wonders. Explosively funny,
slightly retro-looking illustrations accompany the laugh-aloud text, which takes a sly dig
at the medical extablishment while affirming the power of comfort from Mama. And
who knew?leopardpox may just be contagious!

Publishing, and the author of three novels.Orna currently lives in Tel Aviv with her family.

honored story champions a young girl's bravery and good will in helping her best friend

can another one betoo? Can she possibly communicate with Sarah again?

Beetle Busters
Loree Griffin Burns, photographs by Ellen Harasimonwicz
The Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) has made news across the United States. These
beetles came to America from China, living in wood turned into shipping material. At
first the beetles invaded urban areas, where hardwood trees were in limited supply
Chicago was able to declare itself ALB-free in 2006. But right now there is bad news in
Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, and Torontoinfestations have erupted in the
areas hardwood forests, and these beetles, while bad at flying, are very good at killing
trees.
Clint McFarlands job? Stop the ALB at any cost. How do you balance the
needs of residents, the impact to the environment, and an invasive species primed to
wipe out entire forests? It takes the help of everyday people, such as children playing
baseball at a playground, teams of beetle-sniffing dogs, and science-minded people (bug
scientists and tree doctors) to eradicate this invasive pest.
Loree Griffin Burns, Ph.D., did her doctoral studies (in various kinds of biology) at the
University of Massachusetts Medical School. Ms. Burns lives in Massachusetts with her husband
and three children.

Ellen Harasimonwicz's photographyhas appeared in the Washington Post, Scientific American,
Down East, In Touch Weekly, the Harvard Press, and Audubon Adventures. She lives in central
Massachusetts.

Zac and Mia
AJ Betts
Winner of the 2012 Australian Text Prize

When I was little I believed in Jesus and Santa, spontaneous combustion, and the Loch
Ness monster. Now I believe in science, statistics, and antibiotics. So says seventeen-
year-old Zac Meier during a long, grueling leukemia treatment in Perth, Australia. A
loud blast of Lady Gaga alerts him to the presence of Mia, the angry, not-at-all-stoic
cancer patient in the room next door. Once released, the two near-strangers cant
forget each other, even as they desperately try to resume normal lives. The story of
their mysterious connection drives this unflinchingly tough, tender novel told in two
voices.
A. J. Betts grew up in Far North Queensland, Australia. She has taught in Brisbane and traveled
the world with a backpack and camera. When shes not writing or teaching, she rides bikes, bakes,
and occasionally communes with the sea lions that live near her home in Watermans Bay. Visit her
website at www.ajbetts.com.
As Zac fights leukemia, he obsesses about survival statistics and
fantasizes about Emma Watson. Until he meets Mia, the
beautiful girl in the hospital room next door.

The United States is now divided into Believers and Non-Believers, thanks to the
magnetic Pastor Frick, founder of the powerful Church of America. Seventeen-year-old
Vivian Apple spends the night before the predicted Rapture with her best friend,
Harpreet Janda, at a mock-countdown party in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. But when she
returns home the next morning, her parents are gone and there are two holes in their
bedroom ceiling. Is it some sort of trick? Or . . . real? Viv and her friends decide to find
out, and their dangerous road trip across a paranoid and panic-stricken America makes
for a darkly entertaining, grip-the-steering-wheel ride.
San Francisco resident Katie Coyle grew up in Fair Haven, New Jersey, and has an MFA from the
University of Pittsburgh. Her short fiction has appeared or is forthcoming in One Story, the
Southeast Review, Cobalt, and Critical Quarterly. This is her first novel. Visit her at

Lenny Cyrus, School Virus
Joe Schreiber, illustrated by Matt Smith
The action is fast, furious, and . . .funny. The Bulletin

It seemed so logical at first. Fourteen-year-old Lenny Cyrus had loved Zooey Andrews
since third grade. All the boy genius needed to do to win her heart was shrink down to
the size of an amoeba, ooze into a gelatin capsule, and have his friend Harlan slip it
(him!) into Zooeys Diet Coke. Told in three voices, this fantastical middle grade
novel takes Lenny deep into Zooeys loud, splashing innards.The question is, will Lenny
and Zooey survive his crazy experiment in nanotechnology?
Joe Schreiber is the author of Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick and Perrys Killer Playlist. He lives
in Pennsylvania. Visit his blog at www.scaryparent.blogspot.com.
The illustrator Matt Smith is best known for his work in Highlights for Children, Cricket, and Muse.
He lives in Lexington, Massachusetts. Visit his website at www.matt-illustrations.com.
Lenny Cyrus is determined to find his way into Zooeys heart.
Through her brain. Literally.

How to Catch a Bogle
Catherine Jinks
Top-notch storytelling from Jinks, full of wit, a colorful cast of rogues, and delectable
slang. Publishers Weekly, starred review

Birdie McAdam, a ten-year-old orphan,is tougher than she looks. She's proud of her
job as apprentice to Alfred the Bogler, a man who catches monsters for a living. Birdie
lures the bogles out of their lairs with her sweet songs, and Alfred kills them before they
kill her. On the mean streets of Victorian England, hunting bogles is actually less
dangerous work than mudlarking for scraps along the vile river Thames (see glossary!).
Or so it seemsuntil the orphans of London start to disappear . . .
Catherine Jinks, winner of a Centenary Medal for her contribution to Australian children's
literature, is the author of many books for children of all ages, including the acclaimed Evil Genius
trilogy. She lives with her family in New South Wales, Australia. Visit her website at

The Next Big Thing
A History of the Boom-or-Bust Moments That Shaped the
Modern World
Richard Faulk
Were always hearing about the Next Big Thingand thats nothing new either. From
the New World to the new iPhone, such innovations and discoveries always loom large
in the public mind. But the impact that we think these things will have is often far out of
proportion to their actual impact. After all, our failures are forgotten almost
immediately, whereas our successes are celebrated for centuries afterward. The Next Big
Thing pores over 3,000 years of culture to find the colorful and key steps (and missteps)
that have led us to where we are today.
Richard Faulk is the author of Gross America: Your Coast-to-Coast Guide to All Things Gross and
writes music reviews and profiles for the Silicon Valley Metro and Content magazine. He is a
contributor to The Morbid Anatomy Anthology and has lectured at Observatory in Brooklyn, NY.
Helives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Investigates the hype and hysteria that accompany humanity's
greatest (and worst) innovations.

Tomboy
A Graphic Memoir
Liz Prince
Growing up, Liz Prince wasn't a girly girl, but she wasn't exactly one of the guys either
(as she learned when her Little League baseball coach exiled her to the distant outfield).
She was somewhere in between. But with the forces of middle school, high school,
parents, friendship, and romance pulling her this way and that, the middle wasnt
exactly an easy place to be. Tomboy follows award-winning author and artist Liz Prince
through her early years and exploreswith humor, honesty, and poignancywhat it
means to be a girl.
Liz Prince's first book, Will You Still Love Me If I Wet the Bed?, won the Ignatz Award for
Outstanding Debut in 2005. You can learn more about her and her other works at
LizPrincePower.com.
This honest yet playful graphic novel examines Liz Prince's
trials, tribulations, and joys as a young tomboy.
