SUMMARY:Panel: Rick Riordan Presents
DESCRIPTION:Grades 3 – 7 \nModerated by Dr. Keshia Abraham\, J.E.D.I. (Justice\, Equality\, Diversity\, Inclusion) educator. \nIn J.C. Cervantes’ Storm Runner #3: The Shadow Crosser\, Zane Obispo has been searching for the remaining godborns with a nasty demon who can sniff them out (literally). But when Zane tracks down the last kid on his list\, he’s in for a surprise: the “one” is actually a pair of twins\, and they’re trying to prevent a mysterious object from falling into the wrong hands. So Zane and his friends embark on their most treacherous mission yet – a mission that\, with one blunder\, could change history as we know it\, and worse\, destroy the universe. \nTristan Strong\, just back from a victorious but exhausting adventure in Alke\, the land of African American folk heroes and African gods\, is suffering from PTSD. But there’s no rest for the weary when his grandmother is abducted by a mysterious villain out for revenge. Tristan must return to Alke – and reunite with his loud-mouthed sidekick\, Gum Baby – in order to rescue Nana and stop the culprit from creating further devastation in Kwame Mbalia’s Tristan Strong Destroys the World. \nIn Tehlor Kay Mejia’s Paola Santiago and the River of Tears\, space-obsessed 12-year-old Paola Santiago and her two best friends\, Emma and Dante\, know the rule: Stay away from the river. Her mother is constantly warning her about La Llorona\, the wailing ghost woman who wanders the banks of the Gila at night\, looking for young people to drag into its murky depths. Pao organizes a meetup to test out her new telescope near the Gila\, since it’s the best stargazing spot. But when Emma doesn’t arrive and Pao sees a shadowy figure in the reeds\, it seems like maybe her mom was right …

SUMMARY:Inside the world of Kenny & the Book of Beasts
DESCRIPTION:Grades 3 – 7 \nIn this highly anticipated sequel to Tony DiTerlizzi’s Kenny & the Dragon\, Kenny must cope with many changes in his life – including the fear that he’s losing his best friend. What can come between two best friends? Time has passed since Kenny Rabbit’s last adventure with his best friend\, the legendary dragon Grahame\, and a lot has changed in the sleepy village of Roundbrook. For starters\, Kenny has a whole litter of baby sisters. His friends are at different schools and Sir George is off adventuring. At least Kenny still has his very best friend\, Grahame. That’s before Dante arrives. Dante is a legendary manticore and an old friend of Grahame’s. Old friends spend a lot of time catching up. And that catching up does not involve Kenny. But there’s a witch to defeat\, a pal to rescue\, and a mysterious book to unlock. And those are quests for best friends\, not old friends. Right? \nModerated by Angela DiTerlizzi

And if their dull\, uninteresting parents are anything to go by\, they don’t have much to look forward to. Why can’t Kate have thrilling adventures and save the world the way people do in books? Even her 11th birthday is shaping up to be mundane – that is\, until her mysterious and highly irresponsible Uncle Herbert\, whom she’s never even met before\, surprises her with the most unexpected\, exhilarating\, inappropriate birthday present of all time: a colossal steam locomotive called the Silver Arrow. Kate and Tom’s parents want to send it right back where it came from. But Kate and Tom have other ideas – and so does the Silver Arrow – and soon they’re off to distant lands along magical rail lines in the company of an assortment of exotic animals who\, it turns out\, can talk. With only curiosity\, excitement\, their own resourcefulness\, and the thrill of the unknown to guide them\, Kate and Tom are on the adventure of a lifetime … and who knows? They just might end up saving the world after all. \nIn partnership with

Then one fateful night\, an altercation in a gentrifying neighborhood escalates into tragedy. Suddenly\, at just sixteen years old\, Amal’s bright future is upended: he is convicted of a crime he didn’t commit and sent to prison.
