A World Below

A World Below

By Wesley King

It all started with a quiet end-of-the-year field trip to Carlsbad Caverns. Not everyone was awake. Some wanted to go to Arizona instead. The trip took an terrifying twist when an earthquake hit the caverns, plunging the kids into unfamiliar territory, minus adults. Some kids are freaking out. Others are stepping up. No one really knows where to go. Meanwhile, Carlos, the 4th Midnight King, is shaken as well. He has just shown mercy to a trespassing Worm, and now the Mother has punished him for it. His father's shadow is looming over him, and he desires to escape it. He finally decides to go out into the underground forest to beg forgiveness from the Mother, and meets someone who will change him, his country, and their way of life. This fascinating book by Wesley King, Edgar Award Winner, shows us how kids really behave and interact when it matters. Find this Junior Library Guild at your local library or e-library.

Summer of Salt

Summer of Salt

By Katrina Leno

This was an interesting book about a number of universal topics: family, community, love and loss. In addition, it deals with finding your way in the world and figuring out who you are. What I liked most about the book is the setting--an imaginary island off the coast of New England--and the magic that exists in the lives of the characters.
