Based on the experience of real-life Auschwitz prisoner Dita Kraus, this is the incredible story of a girl who risked her life to keep the magic of books alive during the Holocaust. Fourteen-year-old Dita is one of the many imprisoned by the Nazis at Auschwitz. Taken, along with her mother and father, from the Terezín ghetto in Prague, Dita is adjusting to the constant terror that is life in the camp. When Jewish leader Freddy Hirsch asks Dita to take charge of the eight precious volumes the prisoners have managed to sneak past the guards, she agrees. And so Dita becomes the librarian of Auschwitz. Out of one of the darkest chapters of human history comes this extraordinary story of courage and hope. This title has Common Core connections.

A harried single mother of two young children in London, Ally James is less than thrilled with her lackluster life. Her job marketing marmalade is a yawn fest and the domestic front seems to streak by in a flash of fish sticks and school runs. To top it all off, Ally’s ex-husband David seems to have a never-ending roulette wheel of rotating girlfriends, while Ally has endured two meager (and disastrous) dates in as many years. Then there’s David’s newest arm-candy, Chantal, who is the first flavor-of-the-month to ever meet the kids–that must mean it’s serious. Ally’s friend Mel is sure she has the solution to the malaise: a Market Yourself dating seminar. It’s either the perfect way to find a new man or the first sign of the apocalypse–Ally isn’t sure which, but she decides to give it a whirl. What happens next is stranger, and more invigorating, than Ally could ever have imagined.
Karl Marx was not only the great theorist of capitalism, he was also a superb journalist, politician and historian. For the first time ever, this book brings together all of his essential political and historical writings in one volume. These writings allow us to see the depth and range of Marx's mature work from the tumultuous revolutions of 1848 that rocked European society through to the end of his life. Including The Communist Manifesto, The Class Struggles in France and The Critique of the Gotha Programme, this volume shows Marx at his most astute, analysing the forces of global capitalism as they played out in actual events.
After a major invasion of the Gaza Strip in late 2008, twenty-year-old Mahmoud Barghout decided to become a zookeeper. He saw that the children around him were exhausted by war, and so to provide respite, he set up the Happy Land Zoo. But the war made feeding and caring for the animals impossible—they died of thirst, hunger, or injury—and replacing them meant finding large sums of money and overcoming the blockade or the risk of bringing them in through tunnels connecting the Strip to Egypt. So Mr. Barghout came up with a solution for at least one animal: he dyed two local white donkeys with dark stripes, to create zebras, which visiting children could touch and even ride. The Story of Hurry recounts the tale of these “made in Gaza” zebras, of an inventive zookeeper just like Mr. Barghout, and of the wondrous capacity of the imagination of children. Written by Emma Williams, together with thought-provoking mixed-media illustrations by Ibrahim Quraishi, this picture book for inquisitive children aged 3 to 103 includes an historical note for parents, teachers, and librarians.

Unquestioning obedience is fair trade for survival in the City of Nightmares. Especially when this haunted outcast has been faking it all along... A prickly girl, an arrogant boy & a vengeful ghost weave a dance of death in this multi-awarded first-in-series Dystopian-Gothic Fantasy for fans of V.E. Schwab, Laini Taylor, Holly Black, Kendare Blake & Cassandra Clare. Cole is one trial from finally earning a future. One where she’ll get to live, even if it is in silent, isolated drudgery. The price of protection from the soul-sucking monsters overrunning her city is absolute, unfailing compliance with Tower regulation. But keeping her mouth shut is one thing. Controlling her thoughts—not to mention the ghost who haunts them? Not so easy. She can’t afford to screw up again. But when the cracks in her "good girl" act widen, neither Nightmares nor Tower authorities descend. Instead, a cocky stranger slips in with a dangerously tempting offer. The young rebel's forbidden whispers of a glittering underworld beneath the drowned streets are going to get someone killed. Someone else—because regulation is there to keep the monsters at bay. And she's not about to sacrifice herself on the altar of his arrogance. But all her careful plans go up in smoke when she stumbles over the devastating conspiracy smouldering at the heart of her homeland. Turns out her future isn’t the only one on the verge of crumbling to ash. And the only way to survive might just be plunging headfirst into the flames... The Nightmares are rising.
