From John David Anderson, author of the acclaimed Ms. Bixby's Last Day.In middle school, words aren't just words. They can be weapons. They can be gifts. The right words can win you friends or make you enemies. They can come back to haunt you. Sometimes they can change things forever.When cell phones are banned at Branton Middle School, Frost and his friends Deedee, Wolf, and Bench come up with a new way to communicate: leaving sticky notes for each other all around the school. It catches on, and soon all the kids in school are leaving notesthough for every kind and friendly one, there is a cutting and cruel one as well.In the middle of this, a new girl named Rose arrives at school and sits at Frost's lunch table. Rose is not like anyone else at Branton Middle School, and it's clear that the close circle of friends Frost has made for himself won't easily hold another. As the sticky-note war escalates, and the pressure to choose sides mounts, Frost soon realizes that after this year, nothing will ever be the same., Walden Pond Press; Illustrated edition (May 1, 2018), 5, Greenwich, CT: Fawcett Publications.

"It is now seven years since the publication of Who's In Charge Here?, the slim, oblong book that started the frenzy for captioned news photos. In the brief span of seven years, most of the men pictured in that volume have disappeared from the public scene, which suggests that power is a cruel and fickle mistress. The two men who dominate this new book are the respective winner and loser of the 1968 Presidential contest. The election returns have made one a potential hero or villain of history, the other a mere footnote. Thus, Richard Nixon is well represented here. He has promised to end the war abroad, and he has promised to unify our nation at home. We trust America will never have to sue him for breach of promise.". 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall ., Fawcett Publications, 1968, 4, From award-winning writer David Mitchell comes a sinewy, meditative novel of boyhood on the cusp of adulthood and the old on the cusp of the new.Black Swan Green tracks a single year in what is, for thirteen-year-old Jason Taylor, the sleepiest village in muddiest Worcestershire in a dying Cold War England, 1982. But the thirteen chapters, each a short story in its own right, create an exquisitely observed world that is anything but sleepy. A world of Kissingeresque realpolitik enacted in boys' games on a frozen lake; of "nightcreeping" through the summer backyards of strangers; of the tabloid-fueled thrills of the Falklands War and its human toll; of the cruel, luscious Dawn Madden and her power-hungry boyfriend, Ross Wilcox; of a certain Madame Eva van Outryve de Crommelynck, an elderly bohemian emigré who is both more and less than she appears; of Jason's search to replace his dead grandfather's irreplaceable smashed watch before the crime is discovered; of first cigarettes, first kisses, first Duran Duran LPs, and first deaths; of Margaret Thatcher's recession; of Gypsies camping in the woods and the hysteria they inspire; and, even closer to home, of a slow-motion divorce in four seasons.Pointed, funny, profound, left-field, elegiac, and painted with the stuff of life, Black Swan Green is David Mitchell's subtlest and most effective achievement to date., Random House Trade Paperbacks; Reprint edition (February 27, 2007), 0, Canada: Signet Book - NAL / New American Library, 1967. 278 pages.

Gray boards, map end papers, 8vo 8"-9" tall; 224 pages; About one of the most dramatic episodes of the Civil War. In late February of 1864, the Union cavalry engaged in one of the wildest, most daring actions to take place during the whole of the War. The scheme which involved penetrating Lee's Army and getting behind the Confederate lines, was devised by the young Brigadier General Hugh Judson Kilpatrick, whose nickname was "Kill Cavalry, " and it was approved by Lincoln. The idea was to enter Richmond, the Confederate Capital, burn the city, and free the prisoners on Belle Isle and in Libby Prison. As was later revealed in documents that became the core of bitter controversy, the raiders also planned to capture or kill Jefferson Davis and other Confederate leaders. To the ambitious Kilpatrick, success would mean glory and perhaps the fulfillment of his dream to become President. To Hank Stephens, a fellow West Pointer, the raid might be a way to end the cruel war quickly. Hank had already seen enough of combat to have no illusions about glory. In fact, an unhappy marriage and a seemingly doomed love affair with a Confederate officer's wife had left him without illusions of any kind. To Ulric Dahlgren, son of the famous Admiral, and himself one of the youngest Colonels in the Army, it meant a chance to prove that even though he had lost a leg at Gettysburg, he wasn't through yet. To these and the many others involved, including the women whose fates were so inevitably linked with the outcome, the raid on Richmond was a gamble with both historical and personal stakes. John Brick has told the full story of the bold and perilous Richmond raid in terms of the individual human beings who were caught up in it. And his hour-by-hour unraveling of what happened---the disastrous turn in weather, Kilpatrick's irresolution at a crucial moment, Dahlgren's green impetuousness, the unexpected ambushes, the tragic mistakes---results in a novel of dramatic suspense, or great power and immediacy., Doubleday, 1963, 5, Scholastic Inc., 1996.
