But then she agreed to stay with her grandma for the summer so her mom can take care of her health during her latest pregnancy. Now Winnie plays card games with Grandma's friends (boring), joins the senior citizen book club (fine, even if no one thinks she'll read the books), and absolutely does not talk about her mom's sad days (she never used to be so sad...).

What happens if Grandma notices just how much Winnie likes Pippa? The longer Winnie hides the truth, the more she longs to be surrounded by her LGBTQ+ community and the more she feels like the only place she can be herself is at New York City's Pride celebration. Winnie decides she'll get to Pride, one way or another. But is this just one more secret she has to keep?Patina (Track #2)

personalidades que se vuelven explosivas al chocar. Pero son también cuatro jóvenes de secundaria que fueron escogidos para un equipo de élite de atletismo… un equipo que los podría ayudar a clasificarse para las Olimpiadas Juveniles. Todos tienen mucho que perder, pero también tienen mucho que demostrar, no solo a sus compañeros sino a sí mismos. Patina —o Patty, que es su diminutivo— es la protagonista de este, el segundo libro de cuatro de la emocionante serie novelas juveniles de Jason Reynolds. Patina —llámenla &“Patty&”, por favor— corre como un relámpago. Corre por muchas razones: para escapar de las burlas de las estudiantes de la lujosa escuela a la que sus padres de crianza la enviaron desde que Patty y su hermanita fueron a vivir con ellos. Corre para huir de las miradas de la gente cuando la ven con su &“madre&” blanca: una mirada de lástima. Corre para huir de la razón por la que ya no puede vivir con su mamá &“real&”: su mamá tiene &“el azúcar&”, y Patty tiene terror de que la enfermedad que se llevó las piernas de su madre regrese un día y se la lleve de una vez y por siempre. Así que Patty también corre por su mamá, que no puede hacerlo. Pero ¿acaso es posible en verdad huir de todo esto? El estrés aumenta, y con el también se ha asentado una actitud bastante negativa. Y el entrenador no tolera actitudes negativas. Ni hoy ni mañana. ¿Y ahora quiere que Patty corra la carrea de relevo… en donde hay que depender de los demás? ¿Y cómo se supone que Patty haga ESO?Sorry For Your Loss

★ “A heartfelt and expertly written tale of loss, family, and friendship that will have readers blinking back their tears…Beautiful…
and sincere.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review Evie Walman is not obsessed with death. She does think about it a lot, though, but only because her family runs a Jewish funeral home. At twelve, Evie already knows she’s going to be a funeral director when she grows up. So what if the kids at school call her “corpse girl” and say she smells like death? They’re just mean and don’t get how important it is to have someone take care of things when your world is falling apart. Evie loves dusting caskets, polishing pews, and vacuuming the chapel—and on funeral days, she dresses up and hands out tissues and offers her condolences to mourners. She doesn’t normally help her parents with the grieving families directly, until one day when they ask her to help with Oren, a boy who was in a horrific car accident that killed both his parents. Oren refuses to speak and Evie, who is nursing her own private grief, is determined to find a way to help him deal with his loss. Praise for previous books by Joanne Levy: “Levy's narrative is spot on.”—Booklist review for The Sun Will Come Out “The story gives voice to the experience of Jewish preteens; chronic illness and disability are also sensitively tackled in this complex tale about difference, acceptance, and self-confidence. A heartfelt tear-jerker about love, friendship, and courage.”—Kirkus Reviews review for The Sun Will Come Out “Uplifting, gentle…Exudes inter-generational warmth, family love, and friendship.”—Association of Jewish Libraries review for Fish Out of Water “Though brief, this text masterfully connects the toxic masculinity to its roots in deep misogyny, making Fish a hero people of all genders can stand up and cheer for. All readers will appreciate this book’s nuanced messaging around gender roles and trusting yourself.”—Kirkus Reviews, review for Fish Out of WaterArchie 1000 Page Comics Extravaganza (Archie 1000 Page Comics #2)
