26 Selected Backlist from Blue Dot Kids Press www.BlueDotKidsPress.com This biography of Henrietta Lacks shines a spotlight on an important and overlooked African American historical figure, whose cancer cells changed modern medicine.

Henrietta Lacks: The Mother of Modern Medicine introduces young readers to the remarkable story of Henrietta Lacks, an African American woman whose cancer cells revolutionised medical science. This book charts Henrietta’s life, from her upbringing under the Jim Crow in Virginia through to the births of her five children, before she passed away aged thirty-­one from cervical cancer. Henrietta’s cells lived on, taking from her tumour while she was undergoing surgery without her knowledge, leading to the discovery of the first “immortal cell line”. Her cell line allows scientists to study how viruses work and the best drugs to use to combat diseases without experimenting on humans. The HeLa cell was central to the development of the polio vaccine that protected millions from death and is central to the study of the human genome. Through the miraculous life of Henrietta, young readers will learn the myriad of ways African Americans have contributed to the field of modern science and will spark an interest in STEM for young readers. Henrietta Lacks The Mother of Modern Medicine Dawne Allette is a native of Grenada and has written a number of children’s picture books that are noted for their inspiration, lyricism and humour.

34 Cinco Puntos Press www.cincopuntos.com A thirteen-­year-­old girl growing up in Mexico is visited by her thirty-­year-­old future self in this powerful young adult novel in verse about handling depression.

Out of nowhere, a lady comes up to Anamaría and says she’s her, but from the future! But Anamaría’s thirteen, she knows better than to talk to some weirdo stranger. Girls need to be careful, especially in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico—­ it’s the 1990s and fear is overtaking her beloved city as cases of kidnapped girls and women become alarmingly common. This thirty-­year-­old “future” lady doesn’t seem to be dangerous, but she won’t stop bothering Anamaría, switching between grandstanding talk about saving a mysterious girl and cheesy Hallmark advice directed at loving yourself. Anamaría is doing just fine, she definitely doesn’t need any saving. She works hard at her strict, grade-­obsessed middle school—­so hard that she hardly gets any sleep, so hard that the stress makes her snap not just at mean girls but even her own (few) friends, so hard that when she does sleep she dreams about dying. She just wants to do the best she can so she can grow up to be successful. Maybe Thirty’s right, maybe she’s not supposed to be so tired with her life, but how can she ask for help when her city is mourning the much bigger tragedy of its stolen girls? Thirty Talks Weird Love Alessandra Narváez Varela was born and raised in Ciudad Juárez, México. She earned Alessandra Narváez Varela a BS in Biology and an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Texas at El Paso, where she now teaches. This is her debut novel.

After a Departure Ceremony releases the eleven oldest girls back to the Mainland, Wren becomes their new leader, and she’s desperate to do a good job. So when one of the girls goes missing only a few hours into her new position, Wren makes the fateful decision to leave the Hill in search of the girl—­only to encounter boys for the first time in her life. Is it a coincidence, then, that the Hill is attacked while she’s gone? In a world defined by scarcity and mistrust, Wren must sort fact from fiction, ally from enemy, and opportunity from threat in order to survive and lead her community.

He might not be out—ye­ t—­but he can sense his parents’ concern, his friends’ acceptance, and the church’s hypocrisy, even though they think he’s not paying attention. What they don’t know is that he already loves himself. And until he senses that it’s safe to come out, he just plans on radiating love.

This is a subtle story about an elephant who is down in the dumps. Illustrated with a striking contrast between shadow and light, the moody blue elephant appears to live in a different world from his colorful savannah friends. Empathy is a tricky emotion for children and adults alike to grasp, but The Shadow Elephant manages to walk the thin blue line between sadness, understanding, and emotional connection. Sometimes, it’s okay to be sad and to show it. It’s also okay not to have a quick fix. Better, in fact, to acknowledge someone else’s feelings without judgement, which can be the very best gift of all.

50 Selected Backlist from Floris Books www.florisbooks.co.uk A courageous and inspiring anthology of thirty personal essays written by immigrant high school students from sixteen countries who now live in Rochester and Buffalo, New York.

Green Card Youth Voices: Upstate New York High Schools is a collection of personal essays written by thirty students from Rochester City School District Bilingual Language and Literacy Academy, Brighton High School, Twelve Corner Middle School, Lafayette International High School, and Lafayette Newcomer Academy. Each essay is accompanied by a full-color portrait, maps, QR codes to online video narratives, a study guide, and a glossary. Coming from sixteen countries, these stories reveal the breadth and complexity of contemporary immigration, demonstrating the importance of a country where all voices are heard, amplified, and embraced. The collection of these immigration stories is vast and includes five students from Puerto Rico who fled Hurricane Maria, a Yemeni who escaped starvation, and a Rohingya refugee forced to leave Burma. Despite tremendous tribulation, a common thread unites them; these young people continue to carry resilience, strength, and hope towards the futures of which they dream.

56 Selected Backlist from Hazy Dell Press www.hazydellpress.com This classic middle grade novel tells the extraordinary story of Deborah Sampson, a woman who disguised herself as a man in order to enlist and fight in the American Revolution.

In October 1783, Private Robert Shurtlieff was honorably discharged from the Continental Army, commended by his officers for his bravery and good conduct. Unbeknownst to everyone, “Private Shurtlieff” was in truth a young woman named Deborah Sampson. Based on the true story of a Massachusetts woman who disguised herself as a man in order to serve in the Revolutionary War, I’m Deborah Sampson is a classic work of historical young adult fiction from one of the most popular writers of the genre.

Patricia Clapp (1912–2003) was an American writer of fiction for children and young adults. Her first novel,Constance: A Story of Early Plymouth (1968) is based on the life of her forbear Constance Hopkins, a passenger on the Mayflower. It was nominated for the National Book Award in 1969. Her second book, Jane-­Emily (1969) was described by the New York Times nearly fifty years after its publication as “one of the great children’s ghost stories, featuring a nasty little dead girl who is not at all pleased when a good little living girl comes to stay in her old house.” Most of Clapp’s novels were written as fictionalized accounts of historical events. I’m Deborah Sampson: A Soldier in the War of the Revolution (1977) is loosely based on the life of Deborah Sampson, a young woman who disguised I’m Deborah Sampson herself as a man and served in the 4th Massachusetts Regiment during the Revolutionary A Soldier in the War War. Witches’ Children: A Story of Salem (1982) and The Tamarack Tree: A Novel of the of the Revolution Siege of Vicksburg (1986) explore the history of the Salem Witch trials and the Siege of Patricia Clapp Vicksburg during the Civil War, respectively.

“Unqualified and spineless. Lona reckons she should put that on a t-­shirt.”

Lona shouldn’t be on campus, and she absolutely shouldn’t be in the arts wing, huddled over an enlarger printing photos. But just because she’s dropped out, doesn’t mean she’s given up—­does it? Spending her days sneaking into art rooms and her nights cleaning up food and vomit at the roller rink, Lona is at a standstill. What does she want? What is her path? If university is not for her, what is?

Then along comes George: studious and Clark Kent-­ish, unafraid to reveal his Hunger Games fandom. With all these new feelings, as well as a distant best mate, an aging grandad, and the perils of moving out of home, Lona’s questions just got a lot bigger. Loner is an exciting and vital exploration of young adulthood that re-­examines the meaning of solitude and aloneness in the modern world. Loner Georgina Young
