After Frances Perkins witnessed the Triangle Waist Factory fire in 1911, she was inspired to work to bring about groundbreaking worker rights and safety laws. She became Secretary of Labor—the first woman cabinet member—under FDR, and she went on to create the Social Security program, a system that includes unemployment and benefits millions of Americans today.
Deborah Hopkinson’s energetic text and Kristy Caldwell’s appealing illustrations introduce readers to a fascinating woman who has changed many American lives.
Sponsored by Malorie, the thrilling sequel to Bird Box, from New York Times bestselling author Josh Malerman.
Twelve years after Malorie and her children found a semblance of safety, a blindfold is still the only thing that stands between sanity and madness. One glimpse of the creatures will drive a person to unspeakable violence. Don’t get lazy, Malorie tells her kids. Don’t take off your blindfold. AND DON’T LOOK.
Then comes what feels like impossible news: Someone very dear to her may be alive.
Now Malorie has a choice to make: to live by the rules of survival that have served her so well, or to venture into the darkness and reach for hope once more.

“BARD DESPERATE FOR APPRENTICE AND ROGUE WITH SIDELINE IN INSURANCE SEEK WORK. PREFERABLY AS GOOD GUYS.” Dragon Award-Nominated and Highly Acclaimed Author, D.J. Butler brings another intriguing tale. This time Butler’s fast-paced, humorous banter mixes with far-future tech in a space opera reminiscent of Star Wars’ Mos Eisley Cantina. It’s a space-opera with a buddy-cop feel. Fans of Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden, Joe R. Lansdale’s Hap & Leonard, and Fritz Leiber’s Fafhrd the Gray Mouser will all find much to like.

It’s 1979, and Susan Klintock is a girl with a lot of sexual fantasies, but not a lot of sexual experience. No one she knows has been worth taking a shot on…until Bobby McMann arrives. Sure, he’s the coach of the new girls’ soccer team, and 100%, completely off limits—but that doesn’t mean Susan can’t try out for the team to get closer to him.
Between the grueling drills and practices, however, Susan discovers things she didn’t expect: that she might actually love soccer, and that figuring out what she truly wants will mean taking risks, both on and off the pitch.

Sponsored by Flatiron Books, publisher of Blacktop Wasteland by S.A. Cosby
Read the thriller Lee Child calls “sensationally good.” Like Ocean’s Eleven meets Drive, with a Southern noir twist, S. A. Cosby’s Blacktop Wasteland is a searing, operatic story of a man pushed to his limits by poverty, race, and his own former life of crime. Walter Mosley says Blacktop Wasteland is “an intoxicating, thrill of a ride.” Available wherever books are sold.
