Download or read book Wildfire written by Carrie Mac and published by Knopf Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Into the Wild meets The Serpent King in this story about Annie and Pete, two best friends on a dangerous and emotional trek through the woods. Annie and Pete have been best friends since they were little. They know each other better than anyone, and they've been on more adventures than they can count--they even have a notebook filled with all the times they've almost died. But they always survive, because together, they're invincible. And they've always been just friends. But lately, Annie has been thinking that maybe friendship is just the beginning, and she's been mentally replaying all the times they were almost something more. Now they're heading out on their next great quest: a ten-day backpacking trip through the mountains of Washington State, ending at Fire Camp, where they'll learn to fight the area's growing wildfire problem. The woods spark with the promise of adventure, but a freak climbing accident interrupts their progress, and as the wildfires close in and smoke envelops them, Annie and Pete wander farther from the trail. Carrie Mac's gripping story of the power of unrequited love and the danger of the elements is harrowing, beautiful, and unforgettable. A Globe and Mail Best Book of the Year "Mac is as comfortable writing about the wilderness as she is exploring the internal world of a teenage girl, and the combination of the two is enthralling and devastating."--Quill and Quire, Starred review "At turns heartbreaking, joyful, and frightening. An affecting combination of wilderness adventure and poignant teen angst."--Kirkus "For a novel so introspective, the pace is remarkably quick...Recommend to fans of John Green, Adam Silvera, or Sarah Dessen. Advise readers to have tissues on hand for this riveting tale of friendship, grief, and survival."--SLJ

Book excerpt: Rory Hendrix is the least likely of Girl Scouts. She hasn't got a troop or even a badge to call her own. But she's checked the Handbook out from the elementary school library so many times that her name fills all the lines on the card, and she pores over its surreal advice (Uniforms, disposing of outgrown; The Right Use of Your Body; Finding Your Way When Lost) for tips to get off the Calle: that is, the Calle de las Flores, the Reno trailer park where she lives with her mother, Jo, the sweet-faced, hard-luck bartender at the Truck Stop. Rory's been told that she is one of the "third-generation bastards surely on the road to whoredom." But she's determined to prove the county and her own family wrong. Brash, sassy, vulnerable, wise, and terrified, she struggles with her mother's habit of trusting the wrong men, and the mixed blessing of being too smart for her own good. From diary entries, social workers' reports, half-recalled memories, arrest records, family lore, Supreme Court opinions, and her grandmother's letters, Rory crafts a devastating collage that shows us her world even as she searches for the way out of it. Tupelo Hassman's Girlchild is a heart-stopping and original debut.

EDITORIAL REVIEWS: Lisa Caprelli's Unicorn Jazz carries with it a timelessly serene message of hope for our upcoming generations. An Amazonian Wonder-Woman tale in the form of a harmonious unicorn fable, Unicorn Jazz depicts the features that warm and empower the essence of our natural fibers as we grow effortlessly, though not entirely without moments of fear and strain, through our childhood stages of psychological self-development. -P. Knowman Lisa Caprelli shares the working of her creative mind and joyfully brings readers into the colorful, happy and empowering world of 'Unicorn Jazz'. Her heart is evident in every page and the take-away message of kindness, acceptance and celebrating our uniqueness is presented in a way that adults can model from and teach, and children can engage to and listen. In my practice with families, I have seen how necessary compassion, acceptance and self-pride development are to building a healthy sense of self-esteem and self-worth, finding a sense of safety in self and others, and using this strong foundation to explore relationships and the world around them. Unicorn Jazz teaches these concepts at a fundamental age. I highly recommend checking out Unicorn Jazz for you and the developing children in your lives. . -Dr. Stacey Zlotnick © 2018 Happy Lifestyle Online www.UnicornJazz.comFollow on Instagram.com/UnicornJazzBrand
