SUMMARY:Dan Wakefield on Kurt Vonnegut: The Making of a Writer: Young Adult Fiction
DESCRIPTION:This first and only YA biography of the great American novelist and humanist comes out on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Kurt Vonnegut\, author of Slaughterhouse Five\, Breakfast of Champions\, Cat’s Cradle\, and many other brilliant novels and short stories\, is one of our greatest American writers. Born in 1922\, Vonnegut’s life was full of great fortune and great despair: his family was wealthy\, but lost everything in the market crash of 1929; he was the youngest son in a loving family\, until his mother fell into a depression and committed suicide; he joined the army in WWII with great pride for our country\, but experienced instead a world of destruction and horror. How did he channel the highs and lows of his life into great writing? Dan Wakefield\, a friend and mentee of Vonnegut’s for decades\, distills the facts – including Vonnegut’s novels\, essays\, interviews\, letters\, and personal experiences – into a beautiful telling of the making of a writer. It is as though Wakefield is a friend walking through Vonnegut’s life alongside him\, a guide for readers to his extraordinary life. Here is a burgeoning artist’s life to inspire anyone who has read Vonnegut’s work or who themselves aspire to write. Moderated by Ellen Book\, branch manager with the Miami-Dade Public Library System. Grades 9-12 \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:Eric Gansworth on My Good Man: Young Adult Fiction
DESCRIPTION:In Eric Gansworth’s newest novel\, My Good Man\, Brian\, a 20-something reporter on the Niagara Cascade’s City Desk\, is navigating life as the only Indigenous writer in the newsroom\, and being lumped into reporting on stereotypical stories that homogenize his community\, the nearby Tuscarora reservation. But when a mysterious roadside assault lands Tim\, the brother of Brian’s mother’s late boyfriend in the hospital\, Brian must pick up the threads of a life that he’s abandoned. The resulting narrative takes us through Brian’s childhood and slice-of-life stories on the reservation\, in Gansworth’s signature blend of crystal sharp\, heartfelt literary realist prose. But perhaps more importantly\, it takes us through Brian’s attempt to balance himself between Haudenosaunee and American life\, between the version of his story that would prize the individual over all else and the version of himself that depends on the entire community’s survival. Moderated by Joan Chrissos\, writer and award-winning editor at the Miami Herald. Grades 9-12 \nIn partnership with

SUMMARY:“Rivalries & Responsibilities”: B. B. Alston & Julie C. Dao
DESCRIPTION:B. B. Alston returns to his Supernatural Investigations trilogy with Amari and the Great Game. Between the fearsome new Head Minister’s strict anti-magician agenda\, fierce Junior Agent rivalries\, and her brother Quinton’s curse steadily worsening\, Amari’s plate is full. So when the secretive League of Magicians offers her a chance to become its new leader\, she declines. But her refusal allows someone else to step forward\, a magician with dangerous plans. This challenge sparks the start of the Great Game\, a competition to decide who will become the Night Brothers’ successor and determine the future of magiciankind. In Julie C. Dao’s Team Chu and the Battle for Blackwood Arena\, Clip and Sadie Chu couldn’t be more different. Clip wants to become his school’s first seventh-grade soccer captain\, while brainy star student Sadie is determined to prove that she can do anything her boastful brother can. They have just one thing in common: they love laser tag. When the Blackwood Gaming Arena comes to town\, bringing virtual reality headsets and state-of-the-art courses\, they couldn’t be more excited – or competitive. But then a mysterious figure appears\, forcing the Chus and their friends to save themselves from a sinister force lurking inside the simulation.

SUMMARY:Desiree Cooper on Nothing Special: Picture Book
DESCRIPTION:Six-year-old Jax can’t wait to leave Detroit and spend a week with his grandparents in coastal Virginia\, where he’s sure he’ll be spoiled with the kinds of special things he enjoys at home: toys\, movies\, and hamburgers. As he dreams of the adventures he’ll have\, his PopPop has other ideas. He fills their days with timeless summer fun – crabbing\, shucking corn\, and counting fireflies. Illustrated entirely of repurposed textiles\, Nothing Special by Desiree Cooper celebrates the enduring connection between the generations who stayed in the South and the millions of emigrants for whom it will always be home. Between 1910 and 1970\, more than 6 million African Americans left the Jim Crow South\, but they never forgot the culture\, the land\, and the family they left behind. In the decades since\, it has become a summer ritual for many Black families to reverse the journey and return South for a visit to their homeplaces. Introduction by the Miami Mom Collective.

SUMMARY:Brendan Kiely Presents The Other Talk: Reckoning with Our White Privilege
DESCRIPTION:Talking about racism can be hard\, but … \nMost kids of color grow up talking about racism. They have “The Talk” with their families – the honest talk about survival in a racist world. \nBut white kids don’t. They’re barely spoken to about race at all – and that needs to change. Because not talking about racism doesn’t make it go away. Not talking about white privilege doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. \nBrendan Kiely’s The Other Talk: Reckoning with Our White Privilege begins this much-needed conversation for white kids. In an instantly relatable and deeply honest account of his own life\, Brendan Kiely offers young readers a way to understand one’s own white privilege and why allyship is so vital\, so that we can all start doing our part – today. Joining are Brian Knowles and Lisa Seymour\, School District of Palm Beach County. \nGrades 9 – 12

In her desperation\, Serilda unwittingly summons a mysterious boy to her aid. He agrees to help her … for a price. Love isn’t meant to be part of the bargain. Soon Serilda realizes that there is more than one secret hidden in the castle walls\, including an ancient curse that must be broken if she hopes to end the tyranny of the king and his wild hunt forever.
