Penguin Putnam Inc What Is Black Lives Matter
Book SynopsisFrom the #1 New York Times bestselling series comes the latest title in the Who HQ Now format for trending topics. It tells the history of a political and social movement that advocates for non-violent civil disobedience and protests against incidents of police brutality--and all racially motivated violence--against Black people.When a Black teenager named Trayvon Martin was senselessly killed in 2012, the African American community called for his murderer to be held accountable. But like many other racially sparked incidents in the past, his killer walked free. People looked for justice and healing in the moment. They turned to social media and a simple yet powerful hashtag emerged, #BlackLivesMatter. The message grew into an international movement and has now become the rallying cry during protests against police brutality and racial acts of violence. The movement gained even more attention and support in 2020 when it called for police refo

Krull uses small, careful details and anecdotes to personalize Ginsburg’s story, describing how she wore her late mother’s circle pin and earrings for courage as she nervously argued a case before the Supreme Court, while underscoring the impact of her achievements." — Publishers Weekly

HarperCollins Hamilton and Peggy
Book SynopsisDrawing from historical journals and letters, New York Times bestselling author Laura Elliot weaves a richly detailed tale about the extraordinary Peggy Schuyler and her revolutionary friendship with Alexander Hamilton.Trade Review“Elliott combines a flair for fiction with masterly research...the ‘stubborn, defiant, willful’ Peggy will win their hearts as she forges on to take her place alongside her older sisters.” — Publishers Weekly “Elliott has written an engaging novel...[and] successfully navigates the challenge of maintaining historical accuracy while upholding the personalities popularized by the musical. [Peggy] is showcased as a strong protagonist who is confident in the best possible ways. Her memorable story will keep readers interested from start to finish.” — Booklist “Set during the American Revolution, the tale offers the adventure of war, the family dynamic of sisterhood, and the drama of young love. While Elliott was inspired by Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical Hamilton, her story is based on independent research, and her afterword is as readable as the novel itself.” — Kirkus Reviews “The story is drawn from extensive research on each of the characters, through their letters, magazines, newspapers, and personal diaries. Elliott has accomplished something wonderful here, and this is an absolute must-have for all middle and high school collections.” — School Library Journal “Hamilton and Peggy allows us to relive the tumultuous years of the War for Independence through the eyes of Peggy Schuyler. It is rare to find YA historical fiction so steeped in research; Hamilton and Peggy! is sure to fire the imaginations and minds of its readers.” — Ian Mumpton, Historical Interpreter at Schuyler Mansion “Laura Elliot’s work richly colorizes the often sepia-toned narrative of America’s founding era. Her characters restore humanity to a myriad of historical actors, some famous, some long forgotten.” — Joseph F. Stolz III, Ph.D., Historian, The George Washington National Library “Set during the American Revolution, the tale offers the adventure of war, the family dynamic of sisterhood, and the drama of young love. Like many historical novels for teens, the language is quite modern, and the narrative has a fast pace. ” — Kirkus Reviews Praise for Da Vinci’s Tiger: “An exquisitely detailed story of the passionate relationship between artist and muse, whose spirited yet gentle Renaissance heroine put me in awe of just how far women have had to come in 500 years. Beautifully painted.” — Elizabeth Wein, Michael L. Printz Honor winner and New York Times bestselling author of Code Name Verity “Elliott’s novel is thoroughly researched, portraying three-dimensional characters in a lively atmosphere of love and art. Renaissance Florence breathes through this book, bringing readers to a fuller understanding of the portrait, the era, and an indomitable young woman.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) “[With] descriptions of well-known works of art, complex societal protocols, and political power plays… fans of historical fiction will find Italy’s Renaissance fascinating.” — Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) “Elliott meticulously researched the 15th century to bring alive the affluence, art, and clothing Florence was known for. In many ways, this intriguing novel is a feminist piece. Add this gem to round-out collections skewed toward 20th century history.” — School Library Journal “[T]he independent female narrator and the richly drawn portrait of Italian culture will attract history buffs and artists alike to this story behind da Vinci’s first-known painting.” — Booklist

Penguin Putnam Inc What Is the Constitution?
Book SynopsisWe the people at Who HQ bring readers the full story--arguments and all--of how the United States Constitution came into being. Signed on September 17, 1787--four years after the American War for Independence--the Constitution laid out the supreme law of the United States of America. Today it's easy for us to take this blueprint of our government for granted. But the Framers--fifty-five men from almost all of the original 13 states--argued fiercely for many months over what ended up being only a four-page document. Here is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the hotly fought issues--those between Northern and Southern States; big states and little ones--and the key players such as James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and George Washington who suffered through countless revisions to make the Constitution happen.

Penguin Putnam Inc Who Was Ruth Bader Ginsburg?
Book SynopsisJustice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is famous for her stylish collars (called jabots) and her commanding dissents. This opera-loving New Yorker has always spoken her mind; as a young lawyer, RBG advocated for gender equality and women’s rights when few others did. She gained attention for the cases she won when arguing in front of the Supreme Court, before taking her place on the bench in 1993. Author Patricia Brennan Demuth answers all the question about what makes RBG so notorious and irreplaceable.
