Synopsis When Friendship Followed Me Home by : Paul Griffin

A boy’s chance encounter with a scruffy dog leads to an unforgettable friendship in this deeply moving story about life, loss and the meaning of family. Ben Coffin has never felt like he fits in. A former foster kid, he keeps his head down at school to avoid bullies and spends his afternoons reading sci-fi books at the library. But all that changes when he finds a scruffy abandoned dog named Flip and befriends the librarian’s daughter, Halley. For the first time, Ben starts to feel like he belongs in his own life. Then everything changes, and suddenly Ben is more alone than ever. But with a little help from Halley’s magician father, Ben discovers his place in the world and learns to see his own magic through others’ eyes. Equal parts heartbreaking and heartwarming, When Friendship Followed Me Home is a must-read for dog lovers and fans of emotionally resonant middle-grade novels.

Synopsis Talk to Me by : Dean Nelson

“The perfect guide to interviewing . . . anyone who speaks with fellow humans to acquire information will find Nelson’s guidance priceless.” —Tom Foster, New York Times–bestselling author of How to Read Literature Like a Professor Interviewing is the single most important way journalists (and doctors, lawyers, social workers, teachers, human resources staff, and, really, all of us) get information. Yet to many, the perfect interview feels more like luck than skill—a rare confluence of rapport, topic, and timing. But the thing is, great interviews aren’t the result of serendipity and intuition, but rather the result of careful planning and good journalistic habits. And Dean Nelson is here to show you how to nail the perfect interview every time. Drawing on forty-years of award-winning journalism and his experience as the founder and host of the Writer’s Symposium by the Sea, Nelson walks you through each step of the journey from deciding whom to interview and structuring questions, to the nitty gritty of how to use a recording device and effective note-taking strategies, to the ethical dilemmas of interviewing people you love (and loathe). He also includes case studies of famous interviews to show how these principles play out in real time. Chock full of comprehensive, time-tested, gold-standard advice, Talk to Me is a book that demystifies the art and science of interviewing. “One of the best interviewers around.” —Anne Lamott, New York Times–bestselling author of Help, Thanks, Wow

Synopsis Sivumut — Towards the Future Together by : Fiona Walton

This unique collection features auto-ethnographical essays by nine Inuit women educators who were part of the inaugural cohort of the University of Prince Edward Island’s Nunavut Master of Education program, which offered Nunavut’s first graduate-level degree for Inuit educators. These essays provide important first-hand perspectives on Inuit education, reflecting upon the dramatic changes that have taken place in the Eastern Arctic over the past fifty years. The chapters offer insight into both the effects of colonialism and the efforts to build a new educational system grounded in Inuit culture, values, and traditions. Inuit voices have yet to be heard within education scholarship in Canada, making this volume a significant contribution to the literature. This anthology will also be of interest to students of Indigenous and Arctic studies, sociology, and anthropology.

Synopsis Olivia by : Jasper Trey

Beautiful and brilliant businesswoman Olivia had been widowed a year earlier - and ever since, she’s thrown herself into mending everybody’s broken heart except her own. However, on a lonely, sun-drenched vacation to Tahiti, that changes. After delivering a cold beer to a handsome stranger, Olivia finds herself confronted not just by feelings she’d thought had died along with her husband; but also the overwhelming temptation to act on them. For wealthy, aristocratic Dante, love had similarly been the last thing he’d been looking for at this remote resort - at least until the tanned beauty in the red bikini had showed up to offer him a beer. Olivia is bold, blatant, and a world away from the fawning women he’d grown so tired of as a prince of Madiera. The chemistry between them is undeniable. But Olivia and Dante come from two very different worlds - her from small-town Oklahoma, and Dante from a glittering European kingdom. They’ll have just a week together before duty and destiny separate them once again. Having gone through so much already, are either willing to gamble on something that might never be? Then again - can either of them walk away from what might be their only chance of happiness? Olivia: A Summer of Second Chances is the first installment of the Harris Legacy series - richly emotional, beautifully written, and true-to-life tales of love triumphant despite overwhelming odds.

Synopsis The Search for Level Ground by : Orion J. Holder

This story takes place in a little southern town not far from Atlanta, Georgia. The year is 1952. It is a becoming of age story and much more. Suzanna is the main character, and when she becomes sixteen the little head voice arrives. This is about the trials, hopes, and dreams of a disturbed young girl. She can't understand why no one wants to talk about the voice. It also happened at a time and age when mental illness was a shameful disorder, and wasn't considered a physical disease as it is today.
