Bestselling author Tony Abbott’s YA novel-in-verse is an unflinching and heartbreaking look at a boy’s junk-filled life, and the ways he finds redemption and hope, perfect for fans of The Crossover and Long Way Down. Junk. That’s what the kids at school call Bobby Lang, mostly because his rundown house looks like a junkyard, but also because they want to put him down. Trying desperately to live under the radar at school—and at the home he shares with his angry, neglectful father—Bobby develops a sort of proud loneliness. The only buffer between him and the uncaring world is his love of the long, wooded trail between school and home. Life grinds along quietly and hopelessly for Bobby until he meets Rachel. Rachel is an artist who sees him in a way no one ever has. Maybe it’s because she has her own kind of junk, and a parent who hates what Rachel is: gay. Together the two embark on journeys to clean up the messes that fill their lives, searching against all odds for hope and redemption. Narrated in Bobby’s unique voice in arresting free verse, this novel will captivate readers right from its opening lines, urging them on page after page, all the way to its explosive conclusion.

From breathtaking stop-action animation to bittersweet modern fairy tales, filmmaker Tim Burton has become known for his unique visual brilliance -- witty and macabre at once. Now he gives birth to a cast of gruesomely sympathetic children -- misunderstood outcasts who struggle to find love and belonging in their cruel, cruel worlds. His lovingly lurid illustrations evoke both the sweetness and the tragedy of these dark yet simple beings -- hopeful, hapless heroes who appeal to the ugly outsider in all of us, and let us laugh at a world we have long left behind (mostly anyway).
In 'Six Little Bunkers at Aunt Jo's,' Laura Lee Hope intricately weaves a heartwarming tale of six siblings going on a summer vacation with their Aunt Jo. Set in the early 20th century, the book explores themes of family, adventure, and maturation. Written in a classic children's literature style, the book is filled with vivid descriptions and engaging dialogues that transport the reader to the idyllic countryside. Hope's attention to detail in character development and setting makes this a charming and timeless read. Laura Lee Hope, a pseudonym used by the Stratemeyer Syndicate, created the 'Six Little Bunkers' series to provide wholesome entertainment for children. Her background in children's literature and her ability to capture the innocence and wonder of childhood shine through in this delightful book. I highly recommend 'Six Little Bunkers at Aunt Jo's' to readers of all ages who enjoy heartwarming family stories and nostalgic depictions of early 20th-century life.
