PRETTY... OR PRETTY TWISTED? Almost two years ago, Faith and Grace Tiddle arrived home from their Saturday morning dance class to find both of their parents lying face down in pools of blood. Five days later, the twins - only nine years old at the time - were arrested for the double homicide. And now, twenty months on, the entire country awaits with bated breath as the jury is dismissed to deliberate its verdict on a trial that has become a national obsession. But if Lead Detective Denis Quayle - the man who knows the case better than anybody else - isn't fully convinced of the twins' guilt... Can a twelve-person jury be? You won't know what to make of the Tiddle twins.

From two-time Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo comes a story of discovering who you are — and deciding who you want to be. When Louisiana Elefante’s granny wakes her up in the middle of the night to tell her that the day of reckoning has arrived and they have to leave home immediately, Louisiana isn’t overly worried. After all, Granny has many middle-of-the-night ideas. But this time, things are different. This time, Granny intends for them never to return. Separated from her best friends, Raymie and Beverly, Louisiana struggles to oppose the winds of fate (and Granny) and find a way home. But as Louisiana’s life becomes entwined with the lives of the people of a small Georgia town — including a surly motel owner, a walrus-like minister, and a mysterious boy with a crow on his shoulder — she starts to worry that she is destined only for good-byes. (Which could be due to the curse on Louisiana's and Granny’s heads. But that is a story for another time.) Called “one of DiCamillo’s most singular and arresting creations” by The New York Times Book Review, the heartbreakingly irresistible Louisiana Elefante was introduced to readers in Raymie Nightingale — and now, with humor and tenderness, Kate DiCamillo returns to tell her story.

Facing life-or-death surgery, Gordon Blake contacts a local private investigator in a last-ditch attempt to find out what truly happened to his daughter, Betsy. But after a seventeen-year search that turned up nothing, inexperienced PI Lenny Moon is hardly going to find out anything new before surgeons get their scalpel into Gordon. Or is he?
