WINNER OF THE NAACP IMAGE AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING LITERARY WORK—YOUTH/TEENS! It's a summer of family, friendship, and fun fiascos in this acclaimed novel that's as irresistible as a fresh-baked cookie. Ellis Bailey Johnson has the summertime blues. Instead of hanging out with friends, listening to music, and playing his harmonica, Ellis has to help bring his dad’s latest farfetched, sure-to-fail idea to life: open the world’s first chocolate chip cookie store. They have six weeks to perfect their recipe, get a run-down A-frame storefront on Hollywood’s Sunset Boulevard into tip-top shape, and bring in customers. But nothing goes according to plan, especially when family secrets start to surface. Can Ellis bake up a happy ending? Partially based on Shawn Amos’s own experiences growing up the son of Wally “Famous” Amos, and packed with humor, heart, and fun illustrations, this debut novel sings with the joy of self-discovery, unconditional love, and community. “Shawn Amos has written a beautiful story of family and music, of growing up and having adventures, of business building and character building, that is at once very specific and universal. I love Cookies and Milk as much as I love cookies and milk.” –Lisa See, New York Times bestselling and award winning author of Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and Shanghai Girls **Don't miss Ellis's next adventure: Ellis Johnson Might Be Famous

After Mika rescues a desperate, abused cat, scary things begin to happen. Does Mika have the courage to take on Angel’s darkly gifted, cruel owner? As soon as Mika runs from the abandoned house, the frightened cat in her arms, strange things begin to happen. Someone watches her house and a dark presence stalks her in the woods. Mika feels creeped out—but she also has lots of other things to worry about, like hiding Angel until she’s allowed to have a pet, handling her irritating brothers, and adjusting to Dad’s recent sad gruffness. Then the true owner claims the little cat. Mika gets a second chance to rescue Angel, and after a narrow escape, thinks the problem is solved – until Angel’s owner comes back with something that devastates Mika and her family—and Mika discovers something she thought only existed in nightmares. Does Mika have the courage and skills to stop Angel’s darkly gifted, cruel owner? Will she even survive? “Recommend. Angela Dorsey has created a tightly plotted mystery thriller for upper elementary readers. The shading of the creepiness of the house will set readers' nerves on edge. The plot is well balanced between mystery elements and the elements of family life. Mika is a strong character.” ~ CM Magazine

But this religious "cloak" he wore didn't fool his family and it sure didn't fool God. After amoving Christmas service, Jake's own teenage son Billy begins to realize there just might be more to this "religion" thing then meets the eye. Unbeknownst to him, his older sister Barbara comes home from college with some rather startling news of her own, and what she has to share will change the lives of not only the Conner's but the people around them...... Jessica sat alone in a darkened apartment. The emotional pain was almost more than she could bear as she played back the events in her mindthat led her to this point. Oh, how she hurt. Rejected by her own family she had little use for anybody, least of all those hypocrites that sat in the pews celebrating the birth oftheir God with hollow lip service. That's how she saw it anyway. And why not? She didn't have enough fingers to count how many of these "holier than thou's" left her feeling like she was worth little more than a glance, a negative comment or a roll of the eyes. But then her own parents rejected her, so why expect anything more from anyone including God??
