Bad Medicine cover

Bad Medicine by Christopher Twin

A group of Indigenous teens settles around a campfire to tell scary stories based on Cree legends. While they themselves never travel far from home, the characters in their stories often find themselves in the middle of nowhere, alone with the demons — both supernatural and human — that stalk them.

Be Prepared cover

Be Prepared by Vera Brosgol

Vera is starting to think she doesn’t fit in anywhere. At school, the other girls think her Russian traditions are weird, and at Russian summer camp, Vera isn’t “Russian” enough. She resorts to bribery and even bullying to try to make the other kids like her before finally realizing that she can find friends and happiness by just being herself.
