Age range 9 to 14 Growing up in East Germany in the 1960's,
football mad Karl wants nothing more than to play for his hometown
club. However, when this dream finally comes true, he soon finds
out that playing for the mighty Dynamo Berlin comes at a cost. Karl
realises that the team are run by the dreaded Stasi Police and he's
required to be more than just a football player. When he refuses to
become an informant, he finds himself falling foul of powerful men
who always get what they want. Of course, as he falls out of love
with football, he could always simply up and leave. Couldn't he?
It's not to be - players don't leave Dynamo Berlin until the Stasi
decide.
It's an all-new horror classic about what happens when the truth is
the last thing we want to believe, from Bram Stoker Award-winner
and master of thrills and chills, horror legend Adam Cesare. After
barely making it out of the Kettle Springs cornfields alive,
Quinn's first year away at college should be safe and easy. All she
wants is to be normal again. But instead, Quinn finds that her past
won't leave her alone when she becomes the focus of online
conspiracy theories that claim the Kettle Springs Massacre never
happened. It's a deranged but relentless fantasy, and there's
nothing Quinn can do to get people to hear the truth-not even on
her own campus or in her own dorm room. So when a murderous clown
attacks Quinn at a frat party while another goes after her father
in Kettle Springs at the same time, Quinn realizes that the facts
alone are never going to save her. Her only option is to go back
into the cornfields, back where the nightmare began, to set the
record straight the only way she knows how. Because when the truth
gets lost in the lies, that's when people start to die. Clown in a
Cornfield was 2020's Bram Stoker Award Winner for Superior
Achievement in a Young Adult Novel. Clown in a Cornfield 2: Frendo
Lives is perfectly set to attract old and new fans to the series.

Social Justice Books and We Are Kid Lit Collective Rodney is that
kid who just can't sit still. He's inside, but he wants to be
outside. Outside is where Rodney always wants to be. Between school
and home, there is a park. He knows all about that park. It's that
triangle-shaped place with the yellow grass and two benches where
grown-ups sit around all day. Besides, his momma said to stay away
from that park. When Rodney finally gets a chance to go to a real
park, with plenty of room to run and climb and shout, and to just
be himself, he will never be the same.

PICK New York Times bestselling author Tiffany D. Jackson ramps up
the horror and tackles America's history and legacy of racism in
this suspenseful YA novel following a biracial teenager as her
Georgia high school hosts its first integrated prom. When
Springville residents-at least the ones still alive-are questioned
about what happened on prom night, they all have the same
explanation . . . Maddy did it. An outcast at her small-town
Georgia high school, Madison Washington has always been a teasing
target for bullies. And she's dealt with it because she has more
pressing problems to manage. Until the morning a surprise rainstorm
reveals her most closely kept secret: Maddy is biracial. She has
been passing for white her entire life at the behest of her
fanatical white father, Thomas Washington. After a viral bullying
video pulls back the curtain on Springville High's racist roots,
student leaders come up with a plan to change their image: host the
school's first integrated prom as a show of unity. The popular
white class president convinces her Black superstar quarterback
boyfriend to ask Maddy to be his date, leaving Maddy wondering if
it's possible to have a normal life. But some of her classmates
aren't done with her just yet. And what they don't know is that
Maddy still has another secret . . . one that will cost them all
their lives.
