Now an animated series with Paramount+ and Nickelodeon! Like a
sudden soccer ball to the gut, this thrilling installment in the
enormously popular Big Nate series will take your breath away! When
you're a sixth-grade dynamo like Nate Wright, life comes at you
fast. Whether it's a soccer ball to the head or another teacher
tirade, surprises lurk around every corner. In this Big Nate
collection, Nate's friends issue the ultimate insult: they point
out all the ways he resembles his arch-nemesis, Gina. Nate also
scores a new job as an intern at Klassic Komix, and his master plan
to carpet-bomb the school with Valentine's Day cards goes seriously
sideways. And when Nate gets dragged into a cringe-worthy party for
the dreaded Mrs. Godfrey, what could possibly go wrong? With
laughs, adventures, and jokes galore, In Your Face! will make your
head spin.
Perfect for fans of Big Nate, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Timmy Failure,
and the previous Stick Dog books, Tom Watson's hilarious Stick Dog
Slurps Spaghetti will be gobbled up even by reluctant readers. It's
slippery. It's slurpable. It's spaghetti! Stick Dog and his gang of
hungry hounds want to play tug-of-war. Their search for rope leads
to something even better-spaghetti! Once they get a taste, they
must get some more. It will be their most difficult mission
ever-and will demand all of Stick Dog's problem-solving skills.
They'll need to scale the tallest mountain in the suburbs and sneak
into a restaurant filled with people. Dangerous humans-a
strange-talking girl, a huge chef, and a penguin-man-lurk around
every corner. But there's more than danger in the air. Stick Dog
has caught the scent of something even more scrumptious than
spaghetti. And he'll risk everything to find out what it is. Other
favorites in the series include Stick Dog Wants a Hot Dog, Stick
Dog Chases a Pizza, and many more!

"A story of journalism at its most inspiring, its most
heartbreaking, its most essential. Muhammad is a reporter who
brings hope to a damaged world." -John Berman, CNN anchor "A
powerful true story that demonstrates the power of one young person
determined to change the world. Everyone should read this
phenomenal book." -Victoria Jamieson, coauthor of When Stars Are
Scattered "A beautiful book about an incredible boy. In telling
Muhammad's story, Neus simultaneously captures the extraordinary
sincerity and courage of so many young Syrians, against the
backdrop of a hideous war. Children everywhere should read this
inspiring book." -Clarissa Ward, CNN Chief International
Correspondent Muhammad Najem was only eight years old when the war
in Syria began. He was thirteen when his beloved Baba, his father,
was killed in a bombing while praying. By fifteen, Muhammad didn't
want to hide anymore-he wanted to act. He was determined to reveal
what families like his were enduring in Syria: bombings by their
own government and days hiding in dark underground shelters. Armed
with the camera on his phone and the support of his family, he
started reporting on the war using social media. He interviewed
other kids like him to show what they hope for and dream about.
More than anything, he did it to show that Syrian kids like his
toddler brother and infant sister, are just like kids in any other
country. Despite unimaginable loss, Muhammad was always determined
to document the humanity of the Syrian people. Eventually, the
world took notice. This tenderly illustrated graphic memoir is told
by Muhammad himself along with CNN producer Nora Neus, who helped
break Muhammad's story and bring his family's plight to an
international audience.
