Sold outWinds of Maracaibo
A propulsive family drama, the story of a woman determined to recover her kidnapped daughter amid the ruins of Chávez's social revolution--the fast-paced English-language debut of an award-winning and bestselling author that brings the Venezuelan migrant crisis to life in lyrical, seething prose, for readers of Elizabeth Acevedo, Jesmyn Ward, and Gabriela Garcia It was too late now, y la ternura no basta--now that she'd tasted the gunpowder, and the gunpowder was bolivariano, revolutionary. And that unthinkable traitor Camilo was using it to blow up her life. "Elisa left with Camilo." "Camilo took her out of the country." These are the text messages Nina receives while living in the storage room of a university in Porto Alegre, Brazil, where she's cleaning houses to make money to send back home. Home is 4,500 miles away, in Maracaibo, Venezuela, where the water never runs on Mondays and there's yet another blackout. Where a trip to the grocery store costs 220 times the minimum wage. Home is Elisa, her thirteen-year-old daughter, who loves to run around the house and belt out Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now." Who should be growing, when instead her waist is shrinking. Home is Graciela, Nina's mother, who lately stays shut up in her room all day talking with her dead, most urgently her beloved husband, Raúl (who's just as eager to talk back from the grave). And what the hell does Camilo think he's doing now, stealing off with their daughter to the United States of America--the one place Nina most assuredly never wants to call home? Narrated through the voices of Nina and her family, and through the voice of her treacherous ex, Camilo, The Winds of Maracaibo is the heart-racing tale of a mother fighting to get her daughter back across the border, at any cost--a brave and furious reversal of the American Dream and an ode to the Venezuelan women who gave their blood, sweat, and tears to a nation dismantled by the egos of men.Sold out -

Where Are You, Eddie? a Companion to Michael Rosen's Sad Book
A bereaved father sets out on a journey of discovery in this poignant, hopeful picture book from the celebrated author of Michael Rosen's Sad Book. It has been a while since Eddie died, and his father is still coming to terms with the fact that he's gone. He's not here, he's not there, he's not anywhere. Is that the end? In a beautiful, deeply moving picture book, Michael Rosen follows a father much like himself as he interacts with the people who were part of Eddie's life--his classmates, his coach, his siblings. As each person relays a memory, and as the father remembers Eddie himself, he realizes his son is still there, and that when he thinks of Eddie, each time it's new. With honesty, humor, and grace, the author of the personal memoir Michael Rosen's Sad Book, seen as one of the finest children's books about loss, makes clear that while grieving may be the work of a lifetime, so too are the quiet revelations that affirm that our loved ones are still with us. An author's note offers some background and support for anyone talking to children about bereavement.Sold out
