Meet Suee: Twelve years old, wears her hair to the left in a point, favors a black dress, has no friends—and she likes it that way!

Then things start to get really weird: One by one, her classmates at school turn into zombie-like, hollow-eyed Zeroes. While Suee investigates why this is happening, her shadow gains power. Soon, Suee must confront a stunning secret that her shadow has been hiding under her own two feet—something very dark and sinister that could put Suee and her newfound friends at risk!

Susie and Shadow


Book Description

If you were a dog, and for one day you could do anything you wanted, what would you do? In 2012 Hurricane Sandy made life miserable for many people, even for those far away from the coast. Torrential downpour and driving winds pummelled anyone who was brave- or foolhardy enough to go outside, yet two dogs in a house on a quiet street wanted nothing more than to go for a walk. Relentlessly, the humans and dressed for the weather and braved the elements so the two dogs could have their walk. The dogs barely noticed the sixty mile an hour winds, if anything they enjoyed it; the ball (thrown in the wind) flew for hundreds of yards, the game of fetch more exciting then ever. As the tired out soaking-wet dogs walked home after an afternoon of fun we had to wonder what they would have done had they the chance to take their walk unsupervised.




Shadow


Book Description

A modern fairy tale about overcoming our fears and reconnecting with those we love most. In our old house, Ma told me there was nothing to be scared of. No monsters hiding behind doors, or in wardrobes, or under beds. She said there were no dark places at all. But in the new house, under my new bed, that's where I found Shadow. “Beautiful. A really powerful exploration of a child’s experience of a parent’s depression. Big and brave” —Nicola Davies, award-winning author “This soft-spoken story can be anything from a simple, lovely, modern fairy tale to a stunning allegory about overcoming fear & how a parent's depression can affect a child”—ALA Booklist “Helpful to any family going through a challenging situation yet hoping for a brighter future”—Youth Services Book Reviews, 5 STARS
