After bombing a stand-up set at her own bat mitzvah, Winnie has kept her jokes to herself. Well, to herself and her dad, a former comedian and her inspiration. Then, on the second day of tenth grade, the funniest guy in school actually laughs at a comment she makes in the lunch line and asks her to join the improv troupe. Maybe he's even . . . flirting? Just when Winnie's ready to say yes to comedy again, her father reveals that he's been diagnosed with ALS. That is . . . not funny. Her dad's still making jokes, though, which feels like a good thing. And Winnie's prepared to be his straight man if that's what he wants. But is it what he needs? Caught up in a spiral of epically bad dates, bad news, and bad performances, Winnie's struggling to see the humor in it all. But finding a way to laugh is exactly what will see her through. **A Junior Library Guild Selection**

Book excerpt: Here I Stand gives the reader a glimpse into the life of a career police officer as recalled by Robert Fletcher. As Fletcher is standing at the head of the conference table in the Organized Crime Bureau, being honored for thirty years of dedicated service, memories come flooding back. Here I Stand presents these memories, good and bad, as they happened. This true account starts with the author being a teenager in trouble with the law. After being caught in the midst of a crime, he was given a second chance and became a straight arrow. Later, the Phoenix Police Department took a chance on him and an outstanding career began. From the very beginning his career was unique. About half way through the police academy, the entire class was pulled out and put into service to help quell a race riot in Phoenix. After being back in the academy for a short period, Fletcher and eleven other recruits were chosen to be turned loose on the City without training officers. That was a grand experiment that was never repeated. Robert Fletcher worked on numerous details and assignments during his career. They included Patrol, Walking Beat, Selective Enforcement, Warrant Detail, Solo Motorcycles, Detective Bureau, Community Relations Bureau, Information Desk, Communications Bureau, and at the time of his retirement, he was the sergeant in charge of the Investigations Unit of the Organized Crime Bureau. This book shares memories from each of these details and assignments.
