'The playful, obstinate and courageously humorous tone of
Zephaniah's writing shines through ... hilarious and later
heartbreaking' Guardian A teacher is dead, murdered by two of his
students in front of the whole school. Right in front of Jackson
Jones. But Mr Joseph was a good man - people liked him, respected
him. How could those boys stab him and jog away like nothing had
happened? Unable to process what he has seen, Jackson begins his
own investigation: everyone knows who did it, but as Jackson
uncovers more about the boys, he becomes convinced that people need
to understand why. Brilliantly written and with a real ear for
dialogue, fans of Angie Thomas and Malorie Blackman will love

Dillon is living with the painful memory of his brother's
suicide -- and the role he played in it. To keep his mind and body
occupied, he trains intensely for the Ironman triathlon. But
outside of practice, his life seems to be falling apart.
Then Dillon finds a confidante in Jennifer, a star high school
basketball player who's hiding her own set of destructive secrets.
Together, they must find the courage to confront their demons --
before it's too late.
Newly arrived from Kazakhstan, twelve-year-old Maya Alazova resents
the way her mother babies her brother, but when she leaves her
English Language Learner program for mainstream classes and has to
deal with a boy, a bully, and conflict at home, she finds her
brother can help with their new culture in ways their parents
can't.
