News of the World<br />
by Paulette Jiles<br />
In the wake of the Civil War, Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd<br />
travels through northern Texas, giving live readings<br />
from newspapers to paying audiences hungry for news<br />
of the world. In Wichita Falls, he is offered a $50 gold<br />
piece to deliver a young orphan to her relatives in San<br />
Antonio. Four years earlier, a band of Kiowa raiders<br />
killed Johanna’s parents and sister; sparing the little girl,<br />
they raised her as one of their own. Recently rescued by the<br />
U.S. army, the ten-year-old has once again been torn away from the<br />
only home she knows. Their 400-mile journey south through unsettled territory<br />
and unforgiving terrain proves difficult and at times dangerous. Johanna has<br />
forgotten the English language, tries to escape at every opportunity, throws<br />
away her shoes, and refuses to act “civilized.” Yet as the miles pass, the two<br />
lonely survivors tentatively begin to trust each other, forming a bond that marks<br />
the difference between life and death in this treacherous land. Arriving in San<br />
Antonio, the reunion is neither happy nor welcome. The captain must hand<br />
Johanna over to an aunt and uncle she does not remember—strangers who<br />
regard her as an unwanted burden. A respectable man, Captain Kidd is faced<br />
with a terrible choice: abandon the girl to her fate or become—in the eyes of<br />
the law—a kidnapper himself.<br />
This Wonderful Thing<br />
by Adam Baron<br />
From the author of bestselling and Carnegie-nominated debut BOY<br />
UNDERWATER comes a moving and hilarious novel for 10+ readers about<br />
friendships, family secrets, mystery – and life-changing hidden treasure…<br />
Jessica is playing with her family at the river when she finds a dirty,<br />
bedraggled teddy bear in the water. She has no idea that it will change<br />
everything, forever. Meanwhile, Cymbeline comes home from school to find<br />
that his mum’s house has been broken into – and the thieves seemed oddly<br />
focused on his toys. Thank goodness he had Not Mr Fluffy, his Bear of Most<br />
Extreme Importance, with him. Soon, Jessica and Cymbeline find themselves<br />
swept up in a mystery that spans decades, threatens their families, and turns<br />
their lives upside down. But sometimes, just maybe, a new life can be a really<br />
wonderful thing…<br />
