Predators Welcome

Predators Welcome is a book of poems written by one sibling in search of another. Eager to recover some shared mythology with the rest of the world, the speaker of these poems calls for a witness-any witness-to confirm that the frightening cosmologies of childhood were more than just isolated daydreams. Challenging, broadening, and redefining our understanding of predatory animals-and, yes, that means us-this book lays bare both personal and societal cycles of violence and neglect, suggesting their intergenerational reenactment is one way we paradoxically prove ourselves to be a single human family, "raised by the same wolves," with ancestors whose stories must not only be told, but lived and relived. Trapped in such a paradoxical circumstance, the human-as-predator is most dangerous, and yet, most connected to and emboldened by history. In this way, these poems urge us to find commonality not merely in past atrocities, but in a present and future rebellion from historical precedent itself.

Graveyard Girls: Season's Eatings

The Graveyard Girls navigate celebrity psychics, messages from beyond the grave, and the continued mystery of Silas Hoke’s missing bones in this devouring third installment by New York Times bestselling authors Lisi Harrison and Daniel Kraus.

It’s the holiday season, but the Graveyard Girls are  feeling the wrong  kind of spirit . . .

Gemma is struggling to save the Spirit Sanctuary, while Whisper is reeling from her father’s recent engagement announcement to Paisley’s mother. Zuzu has taken on the assignment of town ghost whisperer, Frannie is looking for drama in her drama-less life, and Sophie is being haunted by a possessed doll. And through it all, the girls are getting electrifying messages from beyond the grave that may lead them to Silas Hoke’s missing bones.

For a not-so-merry fright, Gemma tells a deliciously creepy tale that takes the lesson of "be careful what you wish for” to a whole new level.

Fans of author Lisi Harrison’s Monster High books will enjoy this new entry in the Graveyard Girls series of mystery books for kids. Anyone looking for scary books for 8–12-year-old-girls will find exactly what they need in this thrilling next chapter in the Graveyard Girls series.
