When Mama loses her job, Sonny is worried. Rent day is coming soon, and if they miss paying by just one day, the landlord will put them out on the street and sell off their belongings. * Sonny wanders sadly through Jackson Square after school one day. His attention is caught by Smilin' Jack, a popular jazz musician. Sonny returns day after day, and soon finds himself explaining his problem to Smilin’ Jack. What Smilin' Jack offers Sonny then—how to raise money for the rent while having the world’s best party—changes both their lives forever. #McBooksters #LiteracyAdvocate #JazzAppreciationMonth #Music #Bookstagram #MiddleGrade #Multiethnic #KidsLit #DiverseChildrensBooks #KidsBookstagram #ChildrensLiterature #YA #Multiculturalism #RepresentationMatters #BooksForEveryone #ReadYourWorld #PublishInColor #BooksForChildrenOfColor

Marisol McDonald and the Monster / Marisol McDonald y el monstruo By Monica Brown and Illustrated by Sara Palacios * Marisol McDonald loves words that begin with the letter m—except the word monster. Monsters are scary, with big eyes, wild fur, pointy claws, and sharp teeth. One night, when Marisol hears loud bumps under her bed, she is immediately convinced that a monster is making the noise. Checking under the bed does not reveal a monster, but night after night, the bumps continue. When the bumps become especially loud one night, Marisol bravely leads the charge downstairs to find the cause. * Turns out the monster making noise under Marisol’s bed does have eyes and fur and teeth, but it isn’t scary at all. It’s her dog, Kitty, playing ball against the kitchen wall. * #McBooksters #LiteracyAdvocate #PeruvianScottishAmerican #Multiculturalism #BooksForEveryone #DiverseChildrenBooks #KidsLit #Multiethnic #RepresentationMatters #KidsBookstagram #ChildrensLiterature #Bookstagram #BooksForChildrenOfColor

All Great Things Must Come To An End ... * The End of Oz by Danielle Paige * In this dark, action-packed fourth book in the New York Times bestselling Dorothy Must Die series, Amy Gumm travels from Oz to the twisted land of Ev, where she fights to free Oz from evil once and for all. * My name is Amy Gumm. You might remember me as the other girl from Kansas. When a tornado swept me away to the magical land of Oz, I was given a mission: Dorothy must die. That’s right, everyone’s favorite Wicked-Witch-slayer had let the magic of Oz corrupt her. She turned evil. So I killed her. * But just when we thought it was safe to start rebuilding the damaged land of Oz, we were betrayed. Now I’m following the Road of Yellow Brick as it helps me escape toward the mysterious land of Ev, where the Nome King rules a bleak and angry world. And what I’m about to find is shocking: My original mission may not have been successful. * I thought my job was over, but it’s only just beginning. And it’s up to me to foil Dorothy’s plans for revenge—and finally save the land I’ve come to love. * #McBooksters #LiteracyAdvocate #BookReleaseTuesday #DorothyMustDie #DMD #RepresentationMatters #DiverseChildrensLiterature #BooksForEveryone #Multicultural #KidsBookstagram #YA #KidsLit #Multiethnic #Bookstagram #ChildrensLiterature #IReadYA #BooksForChildrenOfColor

Who Was Maya Angelou? by Ellen Labrecque and illustrated by Dede Putra, Nancy Harrison * Born in Missouri in 1928, Maya Angelou had a difficult childhood. Jim Crow laws segregated blacks and whites in the South. Her family life was unstable at times. But much like her poem, "Still I Rise," Angelou was able to lift herself out of her situation and flourish. She moved to California and became the first black—and first female—streetcar operator before following her interest in dance. She became a professional performer in her twenties and toured the U.S. and Europe as an opera star and calypso dancer. But Angelou's writing became her defining talent. Her poems and books, including I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, brought her international acclaim. * #McBooksters #LiteracyAdvocate #DiverseChildrensBooks #BlackHistoryMonth #AmericanHistory #BooksForEveryone #KidsLit #KidsBookstagram #YA #PictureBooks #RepresentationMatters #MiddleGrade #Bookstagram #Multiculturalism #ChildrensLiterature #Multiethnic #BooksForChildrenOfColor

Trials of a Teenage Werevulture (Trilogy of a Teenage Werevulture Book 1) by Emily Martha Sorensen * Lisette was expecting to be a werehawk. Now she's a werevulture. Sure, she can still fly, but the garbage looks delicious. And everyone's afraid of her! Okay, everyone's afraid of her best friend, too, but her best friend chose to be a banshee. Then the mysterious Rarity Clan invites her to join. They offer her friendship, and the ultimate secret: how to be turned a second time so that she could choose a different species instead. She could be a werehawk, or a vampire, specter, giant, lorelei, or whatever else she pleases. There's only one catch, and it's a big one. The tool that's used to do that is a weapon that could destroy the entire city. * #McBooksters #LiteracyAdvocate #DiverseChildrensBooks #RepresentationMatters #Multiethnic #Fantasy #ReadingWithoutWallsChallenge #Multiculturalism #YA #SciFi #BooksForEveryone #KidsBookstagram #ChildrensLiterature #KidsLit #Bookstagram #BooksForChildrenOfColor

Look Up!: Henrietta Leavitt, Pioneering Woman Astronomer by Robert Burleigh * Henrietta Swan Leavitt was born on July 4, 1868, and she changed the course of astronomy when she was just twenty-five years old. Henrietta spent years measuring star positions and sizes from photographs taken by the telescope at the Harvard College Observatory, where she worked. After Henrietta observed that certain stars had a fixed pattern to their changes, her discovery made it possible for astronomers to measure greater and greater distances—leading to our present understanding of the vast size of the universe. #McBooksters #LiteracyAdvocate #NationalWomensMonth #NWM #KidsLit #DiverseChildrensBooks #STEM #STEAM #Astronomy #Multiethnic #BooksForEveryone #Science #Stars #Constellations #KidsBookstagram #Multiculturalism #Bookstagram #ChildrensLiterature #BooksForChildrenOfColor

By day, seventeen-year-old Kiera Johnson is an honors student, a math tutor, and one of the only black kids at Jefferson Academy. But at home, she joins hundreds of thousands of black gamers who duel worldwide as Nubian personas in the secret multiplayer online role-playing card game, SLAY. No one knows Kiera is the game developer, not her friends, her family, not even her boyfriend, Malcolm, who believes video games are partially responsible for the “downfall of the black man.” But when a teen in Kansas City is murdered over a dispute in the SLAY world, news of the game reaches mainstream media, and SLAY is labeled a racist, exclusionist, violent hub for thugs and criminals. Even worse, an anonymous troll infiltrates the game, threatening to sue Kiera for “anti-white discrimination.” Driven to save the only world in which she can be herself, Kiera must preserve her secret identity and harness what it means to be unapologetically black in a world intimidated by blackness. But can she protect her game without losing herself in the process?

Ever since T’Shawn’s dad died, his mother has been struggling to keep the family afloat. So when he’s offered a spot on a prestigious diving team at the local private swim club, he knows that joining would only add another bill to the pile.
But T studies hard and never gets into trouble, so he thinks his mom might be willing to bear the cost… until he finds out that his older brother, Lamont, is getting released early from prison.
Luckily, T’Shawn is given a scholarship, and he can put all his frustration into diving practices. But when criminal activity increases in the neighborhood and people begin to suspect Lamont, T’Shawn begins to worry that maybe his brother hasn’t left his criminal past behind after all.
And he struggles to hold on to the hope that they can put the broken pieces of their damaged relationship back together.
