Book Description
Then he grabs my four-year-old sister by her hair. He saved her for last. With the knife, he grazes across her neck without cutting her......The first time, the second time, the third time.Abdallah Daher paints a picture of the hellish realities of war, and how living in the tension of constant fear can be overcome with hope and victory in Jesus. He doesn't promise us an easy path; He does promise to establish our steps along the way (Psalm 16:9). Fight is a true story of pain, survival and hope. "I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33While we don't always understand why we have to live through such tragedy, there is a light that conquers the darkness. There is a hope that can propel an individual to overcome. This is Abdallah's story.

Languages : en
Pages : 484
Book Description
A Michael L. Printz Honor Book "This is East Texas, and there's lines. Lines you cross, lines you don't cross. That clear?" New London, Texas. 1937. Naomi Vargas and Wash Fuller know about the lines in East Texas as well as anyone. They know the signs that mark them. They know the people who enforce them. But sometimes the attraction between two people is so powerful it breaks through even the most entrenched color lines. And the consequences can be explosive. Ashley Hope Pérez takes the facts of the 1937 New London school explosion—the worst school disaster in American history—as a backdrop for a riveting novel about segregation, love, family, and the forces that destroy people. "[This] layered tale of color lines, love and struggle in an East Texas oil town is a pit-in-the-stomach family drama that goes down like it should, with pain and fascination, like a mix of sugary medicine and artisanal moonshine."—The New York Times Book Review "Pérez deftly weaves [an] unflinchingly intense narrative....A powerful, layered tale of forbidden love in times of unrelenting racism."―starred, Kirkus Reviews "This book presents a range of human nature, from kindness and love to acts of racial and sexual violence. The work resonates with fear, hope, love, and the importance of memory....Set against the backdrop of an actual historical event, Pérez...gives voice to many long-omitted facets of U.S. history."―starred, School Library Journal

Book Description
It all began with my first flight to Europe. Walking onto the plane I expected horrible food and uncomfortable seats that I wouldn't be able to sleep in, but I expected good movies. When I got to my seat, I had a pillow, blanket, earplugs, and an eye mask waiting for me. I thought to myself "Wow! I didn't expect that!" On my flight, I realized the food was actually good, the movies are juicy, and the eye masks are a lifesaver. One thing I didn't realize is that my sleeping habits would change forever after this day.
