INFANTILES Y JUVENILES

Un buen gamer no puede resistirse a un reto como este… Tras su primer encontronazo con un videojuego que lo atrapó, Jesse ha jurado que no volverá a acercarse a ninguno… Pero todo cambia cuando su amigo Mark necesita su ayuda. Y a Jesse no le queda más remedio que volver a entrar en un juego. Pero esta vez es incluso peor, porque Jesse es invisible. Y eso complica todavía más las cosas… En esta ocasión, no le quedará más remedio que perseguir al bigfoot, escapar de un gigantesco murciélago escupe fuego y sobrevivir al ataque de un velociraptor. ¿Estará vivo lo suficiente como para averiguar qué le ha pasado a su amigo y rescatarlo?

Donovan didn't mean for this to happen. When he left his book on the counter, he didn't think he mom would read it—much less have a problem with it. It's just an adventure novel! ...Right? But before Donovan even has the chance to hear her point of view, his mom is calling other parents of his classmates. She's setting up meetings with the principal. She's trying to get the book removed from the district curriculum. Donovan doesn't really know if the two boys fall in love at the end or not—but he does know this: even if they do, the book shouldn't be banned from school. Interspersed with this thread, readers will experience chapters of the banned book itself—and the coming out and first love story of its author. With epic feelings and his signature panache, David Levithan delivers a brilliantly crafted story of three kids standing at crossroads. What do you do when you disagree with the adults calling the shots? How do you raise your voice and fight back?

The Beginner Book Story "Ten years ago, Dr. Seuss took 220 words, rhymed them, and turned out THE CAT IN THE HAT, a little volume of absurdity that worked like a karate chop on the weary little world of Dick, Jane and Spot." —Ellen Goodman, THE DETROIT FREE PRESS, Nov. 1966 From this magically right beginning came the concept of Beginner Books, exacting blends of words and pictures that encourage children to read — all by themselves. Hailed by elementary educators and remedial reading specialists, these enormously popular books are now used in schools and libraries throughout ti the English-speaking world.
