Amberjack Publishing Company Going Places
Book SynopsisEveryone had high expectations for Hudson Wheeler. His fourth grade teacher even wrote to his parents that Hudson was "going places." But everything went downhill after his father died on the battlefield of Iraq one year later. Now facing his senior year of high school without his two best friends by his side and with his teacher's letter still haunting him, Hudson seizes homeschooling as an opportunity to retreat from the world.What happens during this year will prove to be anything but a retreat, as Hudson experiences love and rejection for the first time; meets the Amazonian-looking girl who shows him by example what it means to be a man; and solves the painful mystery of the “girl in the window”—an apparition seen only by the WWII vet whose poignant plight forces Hudson out of the comfort zone of boyhood.Going Places is a peek into what male adolescence looks like today for those who don't follow traditional paths as they strive to find themselves.

Cuento de Luz SL Germans
Book SynopsisFollowing on from the success of Filla and Fill, from the same creative team comes Germans. This lyrical, stunning picture book is a warm-hearted tribute to siblings and their magical bond, with stunning art by award-winning illustrator Sonja Wimmer.It’s true that sometimes we fight when we want to play with the same toys. But when night falls, we snuggle up together and fall asleep while we read fairy tales to each other. We’re similar in so many ways! And we’re different in others. But one thing is for sure, and that is that we’ll always be there to help each other out. It doesn’t matter if stormy nights or evening shadows come to visit us. As long as we are together, we will get through them. We’ve learned so many things together, and discovered that the day and the night, even though they seem so different, form a part of the same melody.Germans is an inclusive picture book, both for boys and girls, for brothers by blood and for brothers of life. Both sisters and brothers appear in this magic tale that will delight the little ones in the house.Després de l'èxit de Filla i Fill, arriba Germans, un conte que ens omplirà el cor. Un tribut als germans i al seu vincle tan especial, amb les il·lustracions de la guardonada il·lustradora Sonja Wimmer.És cert que a vegades ens barallem quan volem jugar amb les mateixes joguines, però quan cau la nit sempre ens abracem i ens quedem adormits mentre llegim històries sobre follets. Ens assemblem en tantes coses! I en d’altres som tan diferens… Tanmateix, estic segur d'una cosa: sempre hi serem l’un per l’altre. En les tardes de tempestes o davant les ombres de la nit més fosca ens farem costat. Hem après tantes coses plegats… Hem descobert que la nit i el dia, tot i semblar tan diferents, formen part d'una mateixa melodia.Els germans juguen junts, es barallen, s’abraçen, riuen junts i s’enfaden. Però, per damunt de tot, continuen units per un llaç invisible que els acompanya al llarg del camí de la vida.Trade Review“Brothers and Sisters, published by Cuento de Luz, is a precious picture book that evokes the unconditional love that these great companions of life have for each other.” —Infantilandia
