SLJ Reviews

One title is for young readers and the other is for middle grade, but both books share the importance of the cultural holiday that begins on December 26 and has been celebrated since 1966.

In Dietrich’s book, Owen rooms with a prince of Hell; in Joyce’s book, the Princess of Hell plans an escape with Nate.

An audiobook of Tuck Everlasting is narrated by Alexis Bledel for its 50th anniversary; Stacy McAnulty goes to Venus in the latest "Our Universe" book. We herald these and more titles in our November stars list. 

These three titles focus on intriguing, shocking, under-explored disappearances throughout history.

Whether they are returning home or going somewhere new for the holiday break, the promise of a magical Christmas romance awaits these teens.

Elephants, mice, and dragons make their appearance in these fun and festive board books and picture books.

Purchase these web-exclusive titles, including a celebration of libraries, gorgeous picture books, and stirring YA novels. 

E. Lockhart talks with SLJ about her favorite character in the We Were Liars universe, the gift of writing for young adults, and coming up with shocking plot twists.

These two titles explore the drama, the excitement, and the endless moving parts involved in the world of theater.
