Despite my best intentions, I was beginning to understand how my dad saw the world. The shadows haunting every living thing. The secrets inside the lies wrapped in bullshit. Even Gracie’s box of pills was beginning to make sense. For the past five years, Hayley Kincain and her father, Andy, have been on the road, trying to outrun the memories that haunt them both. They moved back to Andy’s hometown to try a “normal” life, but the horrors he saw in the war threaten to destroy their lives.

Warsaw, 1942. Sixteen-year old Mira smuggles food into the ghetto to keep herself and her family alive. When she discovers that the entire ghetto is to be "liquidated" - killed or "resettled" to concentration camps - she desperately tries to find a way to save her family. She meets a group of young people who are planning the unthinkable: an uprising against the occupying forces. Mira joins the resistance fighters who, with minimal supplies and weapons, end up holding out for 28 days, longer than anyone had thought possible.

Could you survive in a cave...for a whole year? That's the challenge facing 14-year-old Jacob. Set in Ukraine during the final months of World War II, The Hidden Room is based on the true story of a Jewish family who escapes from the Nazis by taking refuge in a remote cave. Jacob adjusts to the hardships of living underground and the dangers of nighttime adventures outside the cave. Food is scarce. Darkness, bone-chilling cold, and the fear of being captured are constant. But a surprising discovery gives his family reason to hope.

Arianna ha sette anni quando la nonna le fa una domanda che potrebbe cambiare la vita di tutte e due: «Vuoi andare dalla mamma o vuoi stare qui?» Si scontrerà con il mondo dei grandi e con i loro litigi, anche se riuscirà a vivere quel che una bambina dovrebbe sempre vivere: giochi, amicizie, scuola, stupore e scoperta. Ma sullo sfondo rimane la sensazione costante di essere provvisori, di non poter mettere radici da nessuna parte, di dover restare sempre all'erta, pronti a fuggire.

When Emilie and Daniel arrive in Silk Harbor, Professor Abindon, an old colleague of the Marlendes, warns them that she’s observed something strange and potentially deadly in the sky, a disruption in an upper air aether current. But as the Marlendes investigate further, they realize it’s a ship from another aetheric plane. It may be just a friendly explorer or something far more sinister, but they will have to take an airship into the dangerous air currents to find out.

Secondo dei tre romanzi che compongono il ciclo del Corsaro Nero, La regina dei Caraibi ci presenta il personaggio forse più affascinante e malinconico dell'intera opera salgariana. Accompagnato dai fidi Carmaux, Moko e Wan Stiller, oltre che da Yara, una bella principessa indiana, il Corsaro Nero, spinto anche dall'istinto che lo porta a ricercare l'amata Honorata, intraprende un lungo viaggio in mare che lo porterà fino a Veracruz, con lo scopo di vendicarsi del perfido Wan Guld.

It's 1942 in Poland, and the world is coming to pieces. At least that's how it seems to Chaim and Gittel, twins whose lives feel like a fairy tale torn apart, with evil witches, forbidden forests, and dangerous ovens looming on the horizon. But in all darkness there is light, and the twins find it through Chaim's poetry and the love they have for each other. Like the bright flame of a Yahrzeit candle, his words become a beacon of memory so that the children and grandchildren of survivors will never forget the atrocities that happened during the Holocaust.
