Harry Potter meets The Secret Garden in this fantasy novel for 11-13 year olds, about a witch ... who doesn't believe in magic. Thirteen-year-old Annabel Wood wishes her sister, Lottie, would stop making up stories about seeing faeries—especially now the First World War has forced them from their home in London to live at mysterious Morven Manor with an uncle they've never met before. When Lottie insists she hears singing at the strange standing stones on the outskirts of the village, it becomes clear to Annabel the country air has done nothing to stop her sister's overactive imagination. But then Lottie disappears, and Annabel is thrown into a world of magic and witchcraft. With the help of the local baker's boy, his eccentric granny, and a host of magical creatures, Annabel discovers a sinister mystery that only she can unravel—and Lottie's disappearance is just the beginning. 'Reminiscent of The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett—with a touch more magic—this tale swings her gates wide to welcome us. A Witch Forgotten reminds us that through our courageous departures, we may come home.' —L. E. Daniels, author of Serpent's Wake: A Tale for the Bitten & Bram Stoker Awards® Nominee

For every athlete or sports fanatic who knows she's just as good as the guys. This is for fans of The Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen, Grace, Gold, and Glory by Gabrielle Douglass and Breakaway: Beyond the Goal by Alex Morgan. The summer before Caleb and Tessa enter high school, friendship has blossomed into a relationship . . . and their playful sports days are coming to an end. Caleb is getting ready to try out for the football team, and Tessa is training for cross-country. But all their structured plans derail in the final flag game when they lose. Tessa doesn’t want to end her career as a loser. She really enjoys playing, and if she’s being honest, she likes it even more than running cross-country. So what if she decided to play football instead? What would happen between her and Caleb? Or between her two best friends, who are counting on her to try out for cross-country with them? And will her parents be upset that she’s decided to take her hobby to the next level? This summer Caleb and Tessa figure out just what it means to be a boyfriend, girlfriend, teammate, best friend, and someone worth cheering for. “A great next choice for readers who have enjoyed Catherine Gilbert Murdock’s Dairy Queen and Miranda Kenneally’s Catching Jordan.”—SLJ “Fast-paced football action, realistic family drama, and sweet romance…[will have] readers looking for girl-powered sports stories…find[ing] plenty to like.”—Booklist “Tessa's ferocious competitiveness is appealing.”—Kirkus Reviews “[The Football Girl] serve[s] to illuminate the appropriately complicated emotions both of a young romance and of pursuing a dream.
