Bloomsbury.Bloomsbury 175-5th Avenue, 8th Floor, New York NY 10010 www.bloomsburyusa.com Moving to a new house is bad enough; but being the new kid in school is worse. Ellie's sure she won't fit in: she loves to read, and nobody seems to acknowledge her--not even teachers, in Ruth McNally Barshaw's Edie McDoodle: New Kid in School (1599902389, $12.99 ) . But when the students decide to rally together for a cause, Ellie's right behind them--and her attitude may gain her friends, yet. Kids in grades 3-7 will find this an excellent story. James Lincoln Collier's THE DREADFUL REVENGE OF ERNEST GALLEN (1599902206, $16.99) tells of one Gene, haunted by a voice from the past that tells of something bad that happened in town--something Gene's grandfather and his friends wants to keep quiet. When Gene and friends decide to clear his grandfather's name, the voice becomes more dangerous in this story of secrets exposed. |
