AN OCEAN VOYAGE --I While Maud was spending her summer vacation in a small town not far from New York her two cousins, Robert and Rolo, came to make her a visit. It happened that Maud's papa and mamma had to go away for a few days to the city, and all the children were left in charge of their Aunt Alice and old Nora, the cook. At first everything went smoothly, but soon Aunt Alice was taken sick, and the children were left very much to themselves. Robert and Maud spent most of the time reading. They were both much interested in the story of Robinson Crusoe, which they had just read for the first time. Even little Rolo became excited over poor Robinson Crusoe and did not lose a word of the story. "How 1 should like to travel!" cried Maud. "If I were big, I would sail and sail, until I went around the whole world," said Robert. "I should like to eat the sweet coconuts," said Rolo. i "' Donald, the gardener's son, told me that once he went down the river until he came to the ocean," said Robert. "All rivers flow into the ocean. It says so in my geography," said Maud. "You can't drink the water in the ocean," cried Rolo, "because it's salt." "If we could only have a ship," said Maud, "perhaps we might find Robinson Crusoe's island. What a pity such an interesting island as that should be lost!" "Perhaps we might even find great lands, just as Christopher Columbus did," said Robert. "Oh, Robert! if you were only captain of a ship, what fun it would be!" cried Maud. "I know how to row, anyway," said Robert, proudly; "I have rowed once already." Just then Rolo caught sight of Tom, the cat, at the farthest end of the garden and ran to catch him. "Robert," said Maud, "it is very stupid staying here. Why could n't we hire a boat and sail to the...

Meet the Authors In March 2015, ten teen girls from Beacon House in Washington, DC started writing a novel during the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement. They began with one central question: What really happens in a community when a black youth is the victim of violence by police? How are those lives affected? Each writer takes on the perspective of a central character - the victim, the police officer, the witness, the parent, the friend, the officer's kids - and examines how it feels to be a human being on all sides of this event. Their stories thoughtfully explore issues of race, violence, loyalty, and justice in a community torn apart but seeking connection. *** Ten teenage girls from Beacon House (beaconhousedc.org) in Washington, DC authored this book: J'yona, T'Asia, Makiya, Najae, Rose, Temil, Jonae, Jeanet, Serenity, and Reiyanna. They wrote and revised their work over the course of two years during workshops with Shout Mouse Press (shoutmousepress.org). All artwork is original by the authors. Some photography taken by the authors and produced in collaboration with Shootback (shootbackproject.org). Photography of protests and riots in Baltimore 2015 taken by DC teen Amir Price in conjunction with Critical Exposure (criticalexposure.org/news-and-events/press.)

Book excerpt: The first in a series set in D&D’s Forgotten Realms, about twin tiefling sisters, an alluring yet unsettling half-demonic race of outcasts Rejected at birth and raised in a village of tiefling misfits, Farideh expects a life without friends, love, or control over her destiny. Then she makes a pact with a devil named Lorcan, and everything changes. Lorcan promises all she ever dreamed of and asks for nothing in return. Her twin sister Havilar urges Farideh to resist the devil’s sway. But Farideh’s not so sure. Lorcan may be dangerous but the power he offers is exhilarating. In the ruins of Neverwinter, Farideh’s doubts get tangled up in a devilish snare six layers deep. A succubus playing human pawns against an otherworldly foe sees the twins as obstacles in her path. And Lorcan’s monstrous sisters have their eyes on the city—and on Farideh. There’s no time to question her pact with Lorcan—it will take every ounce of Farideh’s newfound powers to get out of Neverwinter alive.
