Book Description
From the author of the critically-acclaimed, Carnegie-short listed Looking For JJ, comes this new tense and gripping mystery. They called them the Moth Girls because they were attracted to the house. They were drawn to it. Or at least that is what is written in the newspapers that Mandy reads about her two best friends and their disappearance. Nearly five years have passed since Petra Armstrong and Tina Pointer were intent on entering the dilapidated house on Princess Street. But what started off as a dare, ended with the seventy-nine year old, retired owner found dead. As for the girls - they had vanished. As Mandy's concern over the disappearance of her two childhood friends is ignited once again, disturbing details about the girls and that night will soon be revealed and Mandy will become ever more entwined within its mystery.

2016 Westchester Fiction Award After her drug addict mother dies of an overdose and her uncle becomes her guardian, Arlie must adjust to the new stability in her life and the pressures of going to school with a face disfigured by a meth lab explosion. Arlie's face was disfigured by burns when her stepfather's meth lab exploded. After that, Arlie discovered the street smarts and survival skills she needed to shelter her addict mother, since the law and Lloyd, her deranged stepfather, are both looking for them. People died in the explosion and everyone wants answers. But Arlie's carefully constructed world is ripped apart when her mother overdoses shortly after Arlie's 16th birthday. Now she can no longer remain hidden. Social Services steps in and before Arlie can make sense of anything, she is following the rules, going to school, and living in a 31-foot Airstream trailer with an eccentric uncle she didn't even know she had. Then she meets a boy who doesn't care about her scars or her past. Just when she begins to think a normal life might be possible, Lloyd shows up. He's looking for the drug money he insists Arlie's mother stole. Will Arlie be able to shield her Uncle and her boyfriend from Lloyd? Did Lloyd somehow play a role in her mother's death? And can she get rid of him once and for all before her world blows apart again?

Book Description
At every stage of education, sexual harassment is common, and often considered a rite of passage for young people. It’s not unusual for a girl to hear “Hey, Shorty!” on a daily basis, as she walks down the hall or comes into the school yard, followed by a sexual innuendo, insult, come-on, or assault. But when teenagers are asked whether they experience this in their own lives, most of them say it’s not happening. Girls for Gender Equity, a nonprofit organization based in New York City, has developed a model for teens to teach one another about sexual harassment. How do you define it? How does it affect your self-esteem? What do you do in response? Why is it so normalized in schools, and how can we as a society begin to address these causes? Geared toward students, parents, teachers, policy makers, and activists, this book is an excellent model for building awareness and creating change in any community.
