In his author-illustrator debut, Coretta Scott King-John Steptoe–and Africana Book Award–winning illustrator Charly Palmer spins a tall tale about a neighborhood basketball hero. Have you ever heard of Gravity? No, not gravity, the centrifugal force pulling us to the Earth. I'm talking about Gravity--the greatest ball player to ever lace up a pair of sneakers. Gravity is the new kid on the Hillside Projects basketball team, the Eagles. He once jumped so high that his teammates went out for ice cream before he came back down. With Gravity on their side, the Eagles feel unstoppable. They’re ready to win “The Best of the Best,” Milwaukee’s biggest and baddest pick-up basketball tournament. But when they face-off with the Flyers in the final round, the winningest team in the whole city, they realize that it may take a little more than Gravity to bring them to victory. Here is a clever, energetic story about the unsung superstars walking among us, complete with vivid art and heartfelt themes of teamwork, loyalty, friendship, and fun.

While humans have used their hands to engage in combat since the dawn of man, boxing originated in Ancient Greece as an Olympic event. It is one of the most popular, controversial and misunderstood sports in the world. For its advocates, it is a heroic expression of unfettered individualism. For its critics, it is a depraved and ruthless physical and commercial exploitation of mostly poor young men. This Companion offers engaging and informative essays about the social impact and historical importance of the sport of boxing. It includes a comprehensive chronology of the sport, listing all the important events and personalities. Essays examine topics such as women in boxing, boxing and the rise of television, boxing in Africa, boxing and literature, and boxing and Hollywood films. A unique book for scholars and fans alike, this Companion explores the sport from its inception in Ancient Greece to the death of its most celebrated figure, Muhammad Ali.

Maud and The Tea of Dume Magic, Tea & Witches, Book 1 Magic, Tea and Witches, what would the world be without them? Maud Twangle, a Professional Witch, lives in a world full of magic and mystery with her best friend, Henrietta, who is a Magical Moon Spider. Henrietta lives under Maud’s floppy and rather bedraggled felt pointed ‘going out’ Witches’ hat, which was not to be confused with Maud’s floppy and rather bedraggled, felt pointed ‘gardening’ Witches’ hat, of course. Whilst going about her daily magical life, full of trips to the city by Owl (she much prefers to travel that way, rather than by Dragon) for Tea Symposiums, Maud stumbles headlong into three mysteries which she vows, upon the said floppy and rather bedraggled, felt pointed ‘going out’ Witches’ hat, to solve all of them. The Three Mysteries: 1. Witches & Wizards of the First Order are dying and it’s changing the magical world. 2. A child has appeared in Maud’s cottage, where has she come from and why? 3. What is wrong with the Tea of Dume and why does Maud instinctively fear it? With a swish of magic, a smattering of luck and an ingenious brain, Maud endeavours to solve all these mysteries. However, what will happen to the magical world and its varied inhabitants, if she fails? ‘Tis a horror too terrible to contemplate, without a copious amount of tea, of course.
