  1. AVI Edward Irving Mortis grew up in Brooklyn, New York, where his twin sister gave him the nickname “Avi.” Avi has written more than 60 books, in many different genres and for many different age groups. One of Avi’shistorical novels, The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle, won a Newberry Honor. In this story, the lone young lady aboard a transatlantic voyage in 1832 must choose her allegiance to either a murderous captain or a rebellious crew. Falsely accused of theft and murder, Crispin, an orphaned peasant boy in fourteenth-century England, flees his village and meets a larger-than-life juggler who holds a dangerous secret. This Newberry Winner is the first in a trilogy.

  3. AVI The South Orange River (S.O.R.) School is famous for never losing a game, but that all changes when the school insists some non-jock 7th graders form a soccer team. It usually takes Aviabout a year to write a book, but he wrote S.O.R. Losers in one day! How? It’s based on his own terrible high school soccer team! This realistic fiction title will make you laugh! Romeo and Juliet Together (and Alive) at Last follows the same cast of characters. This time, they are trying to get two reluctant “lovers” together by means of producing a Shakespearean play. This one is even funnier than S.O.R. Losers. Check it out!

Poppy, a deer mouse, urges her family to move next to a field of corn big enough to feed them all forever, but Mr. Ocax, a terrifying owl, has other ideas. Find out what happens when shy Poppy confronts the villain! The Dimwood Forest series continues with several other books, including Poppy and Rye, Poppy Returns, and Poppy and Ereth.
