May Amelia Jackson captured readers’ hearts in the Newbery Honor Book Our Only May Amelia. Now, after more than ten years, Jennifer Holm is bringing this beloved character back in a beautifully written story that’s both heartbreaking and hilarious. May Amelia lives with her pioneer family on a farm in 1900, but she just can’t act the part of a proper young lady—and it doesn’t help that she has seven brothers and a Pappa who proclaim that Girls Are Useless. May Amelia jumps at the chance to earn her father’s respect when he asks her to translate for a gentleman who’s interested in buying their land and making them rich. But when the deal turns out to be a scam, Pappa places all the blame on May. It’s going to take a lot of sisu—that’s Finnish for guts—to make things right.

Book excerpt: With its combination of satire and sentiment, its focus on the seedy side of London life, and its unexpected shifts in tone, Amelia has intrigued and disturbed readers since its first publication. Eagerly awaited by Henry Fielding’s eighteenth-century readers of Tom Jones, the novel perplexed many of them. Amelia counters the traditional courtship plot of eighteenth-century novels with its convincing portrayal of a marriage between an errant husband and his wife, and is ahead of its time in its depiction of the alienation of modern city life. Appendices include contemporary criticism and related works by Alexander Pope and Sarah Fielding.

Book excerpt: Detective David Withers is called in to investigate a routine case of bathtub drowning. The deceased is James Armstrong, married to a much younger wife, Amelia. As soon as Withers arrives on the scene, he feels somethings not quite right. Maybe this drowning wasnt an accident. It might just be murder, and somehow, Amelia is involved. Withers digs into Amelias past as well as doing his best to learn a little about James Armstrongs son, George. The deeper he digs, the stranger things get, especially when his own father tells him about a case in 1975 involving a drowned man named James with a wife named Amelia. Stranger still, the Amelia from 1975 looks just like Withers suspect. Soon, Withers is convinced Amelia Armstrong is a cold-blooded, devious woman whose personal history is so bizarre, he finds it difficult to believe. Is it possible for Amelia to be the daughter of the previous Amelia, or is the woman somehow impervious to age? Following leads, Withers realizes the impossible is certainly possible if he accepts what he sees.
