A joyful, sun-drenched tribute to the anticipation and adventures of the warmest season of the year. When the days stretch out like a slow yawn, and the cheerful faces of Johnny-jump-ups jump up . . . then it’s time to get ready for summer! From flip-flops and hide-and-seek to fireworks and ice-cream trucks, from lemonade stands and late bedtimes to swimming in the lake and toasting marshmallows, there’s something for everyone in this bright and buoyant celebration of the sunny season. Tom Brenner’s lovely, lyrical ode to summers spent outdoors will strike a chord with anyone who’s ever counted down the days until school gets out, and Jaime Kim’s jubilant, nostalgia-soaked illustrations leave little doubt that summer is indeed a time unlike any other.

Book Description
Rosalind is caught between two worlds as Gandhi’s nonviolent revolution takes hold in this companion to Small Acts of Amazing Courage that “seamlessly weaves history and culture into a novel that stands on its own” (Booklist). Rosalind inhabits two worlds in 1920s India. There is the world of her heritage—English to the core, with her strict father who is a major in the British Indian Army, her grieving mother, and a tutor to educate her within the walls of the luxurious estate her family occupies. And then there is the world of her homeland—or the land that feels like home, anyway. The world where followers of Gandhi surround her, and the streets are full of poverty and the whispers of independence. The two worlds are colliding, and despite what Rosalind has been raised to think, she begins to resent the heavy hand of British rule. When her father’s military position provides Rosalind the opportunity to meet the Prince of Wales, she has the chance to tell him about the injustice she witnesses in the streets of India. Rosalind desperately wants to do what is right, but will she have the courage? And what will be the consequence?

The lives of two women changed by domestic violence, drawn together by God. At just eighteen years old, Faith Wells found herself trapped in a cycle of abuse. Then, just when she thought she was done, Darius made a promise to change for good, pulling her back onto his rollercoaster and derailing her life. First, she prayed God would change him and help him grow to be the man Faith knew he could be. Then, she got pregnant. Darius became enraged when she told him, forcing her to make a choice that would change her life irrevocably. In this moment of truth, she discovered her power, vowing never to accept another toxic relationship. Instead, Faith called on God for the strength to change her life. Arduous as it was, she removed Darius from her world and went to law school. Empowered by her past, she opened “First Step Women’s Shelter” to help other women pull themselves out of the violent cycle. Although, sometimes, she could see herself and the decisions she was forced to make reflected in their eyes, haunting her. There have been many women taken under Faith's wing, but none have inspired such an instant connection as Hope Owens-Towers. Hope dreamed of a fairytale wedding, a lovely home, healthy children, and an everlasting, profound love like that of her parents. She was certain she had found it all with Anthony, despite his occasional outbursts. However, his increasing aggression has pushed her to leave. Can she break the cycle before he breaks her?
