The Reign Continues YA Queen Stephenie Meyer Holds on to Top Spots by Diane Roback Mar 22, 2010 The Reign Continues YA queen Stephenie Meyer holds on to top spots by Diane Roback Mar 22, 2010 The Stephenie Meyer juggernaut continues. Though the queen of the vampire novel didn't release any new books in 2009, demand was still enormous, fueled by the New Moon film and the DVD release of 2008's Twilight. Combining the various hardcover, paperback, and movie tie-in editions, Meyer sold just under 26.5 million copies of her Twilight saga in 2009. That's a remarkably similar figure to last year's (27.5 million). Add in 912,000 copies sold of her adult novel, The Host, and it looks like Meyer, and Little, Brown, had another very good year. So did Jeff Kinney, chronicler of all things Wimpy. His two new additions to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series sold 5.7 million, and his three backlist titles (including a do-it-yourself journal) sold another 3.8 million, for a total of 9.5 million copies. These days it's all about series, in the numbers game. The many paranormal series continue their reign on bestseller lists, including PC and Kristin Cast's House of Night books (nearly 5.4 million copies sold, in various editions), Alyson Noël's Immortals series (1.6 million), L.J. Smith's The Vampire Diaries (1.6 million) and Night World (1.3 million), and Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (1.2 million). In other series news, Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson books are still huge, with 3.3 million copies sold, James Patterson sold 3.2 million copies of his various lines for kids, and the multi-authored 39 Clues series sold 1.7 million copies. But other kinds of titles find their way onto the lists too. There were new novels from Kate DiCamillo (352,000 copies) and Sarah Dessen (231,000 copies), and a Hunger Games sequel from Suzanne Collins (460,000 copies). And a few titles from celebrities could be spotted (Lauren Conrad, 477,000 copies sold; Miley Cyrus, 342,000 copies; Glenn Beck, 322,000 copies), though fewer than in previous years. Note: the figures that follow were provided by the publishers. They reflect sales in calendar year 2009 for books (minus returns) for books published in 2009.

Never assume you know what happens next. These are the rules for reading Rules of Summer (Arthur A. Levine, $18.99). In this tale of two brothers’ summertime adventures and mistakes, Shaun Tan creates a world in which meteors are caught like fireflies, robots populate parades, Kazuno Kohara animates the sleeping hours in and a giant rabbit menaces those who leave The Midnight Library (Roaring Brook, $16.99), red socks on the clothesline.

  • The 39 Clues Blog Tour: Access Granted, Peter Lerangis
    The 39 Clues Blog Tour: Access Granted, Peter Lerangis Posted by Bianca Schulze on August 18, 2010 By Peter Lerangis, for The Children’s Book Review Published: August 18, 2010 Welcome to the 7th stop of The 39 Clues blog tour. We are thrilled to host Peter Lerangis! Be sure to enter the giveaway for your chance to win books 1-7 of this exciting and groundbreaking series. The teacher looked distressed as she greeted me. “I can’t believe what happened to my class,” she said. I braced myself. Behind her, hundreds of excited kids were filing in to the gym. They sat in sections based on the colors of their shirts: red, blue, green, gold, representing the four branches of the Cahill family. Most were dressed as 39 Clues characters. Jonah Wizard (with his bling) and Nellie Gomez (with her punk attire) were very popular — but also a set of twins dressed as fish (Saladin’s red snapper), a girl in a three-piece suit (Jonah’s dad), and a guy dressed as Nellie. They seemed happy and engaged. So what had gone wrong? I knew the school had chosen The 39 Clues as the theme for that year’s curriculum. Makes sense — the series is a worldwide search (geography) for Clues left by the most influential people of all time (history, science), involving twisty plots and strong emotional character connections (language arts) among colorful locales (visual art) and requiring the decoding of cryptic clues (mathematics, logic). Hmm. Was the teacher disturbed by the intensity? It was kind of extreme … That morning, the school had warned us to call ahead.

    THE TWILIGHT WARRIORS PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Robert Gandt | 400 pages | 08 Nov 2011 | Broadway Books (A Division of Bantam Doubleday Dell Publishing Group Inc) | 9780767932424 | English | New York, United States The Twilight Warriors PDF Book Shortly after capturing Upper Level East, a chest will appear in it. She felt unwanted, like all her friends and family had turned their backs on her. I also don't like where Brambleclaw's character is going - he was such a strong, honorable cat in the beginning of the series; to see him succumbing to ambition like his father is so hard. From the cockpit of a Corsair fighter we gaze down at the Japanese task force racing to destroy the American amphibious force at Okinawa. Other Editions When she told him so she is pretty direct isn't she? His first love was a non-WindClan she-cat who sacrificed herself to save him, her fellow travelers, and the Tribe of Rushing Water. Their hope was that the Allies would see what the cost in lives would be if they invaded Japan and instead sue for peace. Midnight reminds me of Zecora. The Twilight Warriors , winner of the Samuel Eliot Morison Award for Naval Literature, is the engrossing, page-turning saga of a tightly knit band of naval aviators who are thrust into the final—and most brutal—battle of the Pacific war: Okinawa. If you have any interest in the Pacific theater of WWII I highly recommend this book that included the meticulous research of non-fiction and the readability of a novel.

  • 39 Clues’ Wave by Sally Lodge – 9/22/2010
    David Baldacci on Author Roster for Second ‘39 Clues’ Wave By Sally Lodge – 9/22/2010 The powerful Cahill family will be pitted against a ruthless cabal in Scholastic’s follow-up to its multimedia franchise, The 39 Clues. The new series, The 39 Clues: Cahills vs. Vespers, launches in April 2011 with Vespers Rising by Rick Riordan, Peter Lerangis, Gordon Korman, and Jude Watson, and will wrap up in March 2013 with a seventh installment penned by bestselling thriller author David Baldacci. Vespers Rising has an announced first printing of 500,000 copies. Continuing the multi-platform concept, the second part of the series will entail collectible cards and an online game and will include enhanced interactive features on the series’ Web site. The 39 Clues model has obviously clicked with young readers: there are more than 8.5 million copies of the original 10-book series in print, the series has been licensed for publication in 24 languages, and the Web site has more than 1.2 million registered users to date. Asked about the incentive for creating part deux, David Levithan, v-p and editorial director of Scholastic Press and multi-media publishing, has a simple answer: “The kids wanted it.” He notes that the 10th book, Margaret Peterson Haddix’s Into the Gauntlet, which pubbed in August, “was our best launch yet. And when that book came out, the first installment, The Maze of Bones by Rick Riordan, was still among the top 10 titles on BookScan’s children’s list. The 39 Clues has engaged both readers and gamers and has created a world that kids don’t want to leave and that new kids are discovering all the time.” Rachel Griffiths, senior editor of Scholastic Press and editor of The 39 Clues, says that the 2.0 version immerses readers into the series’ action more extensively than before.

Summary: Grade 9 Up–Headstrong, sun-loving, 17-year-old Bella declines her mom's invitation to move to Florida, and instead reluctantly opts to move to her dad's cabin in the dreary, rainy town of Forks, WA. She becomes intrigued with Edward Cullen, a distant, stylish, and disarmingly handsome senior, who is also a vampire. When he reveals that his specific clan hunts wildlife instead of humans, Bella deduces that she is safe from his blood-sucking instincts and therefore free to fall hopelessly in love with him. The feeling is mutual, and the resulting volatile romance smolders as they attempt to hide Edward's identity from her family and the rest of the school.

But Cassie insisted the windows stay closed, for privacy. Besides, she liked the feeling of being cocooned in such close quarters with Adam, insulated from the outside world by the steamy glass. They were going to be late for their meeting, but inside this cloud, she didn’t care. “We should go in,” she said halfheartedly. “Just five more minutes. It’s not like they can start without you.” Right, Cassie thought, because I’m a leader. All the more reason not to be late because I’m making out with my boyfriend. Boyfriend. The notion still made her giddy, even after all these weeks. She watched the way the setting sun brought out the multicolored highlights in Adam’s tangled hair— shades of burgundy and orange—and the crystalline sparkle in his blue eyes.
