Rochelle Dreeben's moving memoir retells her holocaust experiences: her escape with her mother from the Warsaw Ghetto, where her father stayed to fight in the Uprising; her mother Leonia's resourcefulness as they harrowingly avoided the death camps; Rochelle's exodus through war torn Poland with other "orphans" driven from their safe haven in a Catholic convent; and Rochelle and Leonia's final escape to America. This finely written memoir is Rochelle's tribute to her courageous mother and is a gift to us all.

First published in 1959, Iona and Peter Opie's The Lore and Language of Schoolchildren is a pathbreaking work of scholarship that is also a splendid and enduring work of literature. Going outside the nursery, with its assortment of parent-approved entertainments, to observe and investigate the day-to-day creative intelligence and activities of children, the Opies bring to life the rites and rhymes, jokes and jeers, laws, games, and secret spells of what has been called "the greatest of savage tribes, and the only one which shows no signs of dying out."

Lazlo is afraid of the dark. It hides in closets and sometimes sits behind the shower curtain, but mostly it lives in the basement. One night, when Lazlo’s nightlight burns out, the dark comes to visit him in his room. “Lazlo,” the Dark says. “I want to show you something.” And so Lazlo descends the basement stairs to face his fears and discover a few comforting facts about the mysterious presence with whom all children must learn to live. Beautifully rendered with sympathy and wit, this first collaboration between Snicket and Klassen offers a fresh take on a universal childhood experience.

When Lee Karis, a simple working man, finds Benjamin Qasem, a fugitive POW, hiding in the local park one night, what begins as an act of kindness becomes a friendship stronger and more committed than either could have anticipated. But their friendship is unacceptable to the government and the cultural norms around them, and soon the two find that retreat to the seclusion of New York's forests is the only way to preserve their bond. One will give his life for his friend. And the other will face his soul's darkest day.

In this mischievous and utterly original debut, Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm-inspired tales. As readers follow the siblings through a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind (and beyond) the bread crumbs, edible houses, and outwitted witches. Fairy tales have never been more irreverent or subversive as Hansel and Gretel learn to take charge of their destinies and become the clever architects of their own happily ever after.
