Peachtree Publishers,U.S. Boys I Know
Book SynopsisA modern Judy Blume meets Jenny Han."[A] complex coming-of-age story about identity and sexuality."?The New York TimesA high school senior navigates messy boys, messier relationships, and the struggle of never quite living up to her Taiwanese mother''s expectations. June Chu has always been the "just good enough" girl. Good enough to line the shelves with third-place trophies and steal secret kisses from her AP Bio partner, Rhys. But not good enough to meet her mother?s unrelenting expectations, or get Rhys to commit.While June?s mother insists she follow in her (perfect) sister?s footsteps and get a (full-ride) violin scholarship, June doesn?t see the point in trying too hard if she?s destined to fall short anyway. Instead, she focuses her efforts on making her relationship with Rhys "official."But after her methodically planned, tipsily executed scheme explodes on the level of a nuclear disaster, she flings herself into a new relationship with a guy who?s not allergic to the word girlfriend.As the line between sex and love blurs, and pressure to map out her entire future threatens to burst, June will have to decide on whose terms she?s going to live her life?even if it means fraying her relationship with her mother beyond repair.Boys I Know is a raw and realistic look into the lives of teen girls, examining the complex overlap between teen sexuality and Asian American identity. A sharp and unflinchingly honest journey of self-discovery.

Roaring Brook Press The Man Who Walked Between the Towers
Book SynopsisThe story of a daring tightrope walk between skyscrapers, as seen in Robert Zemeckis''s The Walk, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt. In 1974, French aerialist Philippe Petit threw a tightrope between the two towers of the World Trade Center and spent an hour walking, dancing, and performing high-wire tricks a quarter mile in the sky. This picture book captures the poetry and magic of the event with a poetry of its own: lyrical words and lovely paintings that present the detail, daring, and--in two dramatic foldout spreads-- the vertiginous drama of Petit''s feat. The Man Who Walked Between the Towers is the winner of the 2004 Caldecott Medal, the winner of the 2004 Boston Globe - Horn Book Award for Picture Books, and the winner of the 2006 Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Children''s Video.

Christian Publishers LLC Plays of the American Experience: 25 Fascinating
Book Synopsis"What brings the past alive better than stories performed by live actors? The 25 plays in this collection are short theatrical pieces that bring to life moments in American history from the early nineteenth century to the 1970s. Most of the characters in these plays are not famous figures or even factual people. They are ordinary Americans who did not make history, but lived it. Each play runs between eight and ten minutes, and cast sizes range from two to eight. The plays can be read aloud or simply staged in the classroom, or they can be fully staged with the help of complete character, set, and costume descriptions for each scene. Each play also includes a background description of the historical situation of the plot as well as an aftermath description that explains what happened after the dramatized event. Ideal for middle school or high school drama classes wanting relatable period pieces or for American history classes wanting to make past events and times real for todays students, these engaging scenes capture the essence of the American spirit of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries."
