Winner of the 2018 Pura Belpre Award! “A book for anyone mending from childhood wounds.”—Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street In this unforgettable multicultural coming-of-age narrative—based on the author’s childhood in the 1960s—a young Cuban-Jewish immigrant girl is adjusting to her new life in New York City when her American dream is suddenly derailed. Ruthie’s plight will intrigue readers, and her powerful story of strength and resilience, full of color, light, and poignancy, will stay with them for a long time. Ruthie Mizrahi and her family recently emigrated from Castro’s Cuba to New York City. Just when she’s finally beginning to gain confidence in her mastery of English—and enjoying her reign as her neighborhood’s hopscotch queen—a horrific car accident leaves her in a body cast and confined her to her bed for a long recovery. As Ruthie’s world shrinks because of her inability to move, her powers of observation and her heart grow larger and she comes to understand how fragile life is, how vulnerable we all are as human beings, and how friends, neighbors, and the power of the arts can sweeten even the worst of times.

Lucky is the two book boxed set of the novel LUCKY BREAK and THE BALLAD OF JUDE. LUCKY BREAK Jude Morrison…drummer, songwriter, rockstar god. His poster hung from my bedroom wall and it wasn't just that he was hot, he was a talented musician too. He inspired me. The one time I saw him perform live with Silverlight was enough to make me realize that was what I wanted to do with my life. I got lucky, but I've always been lucky, that's my name. I got a recording deal and a tour to go along with it. Only problem is the record company wants a big name to be on tour with me. I should have been happy hearing they tapped Jude Morrison for my tour, instead I thought my luck had finally run out. How am I supposed to perform with this cocky jerk when I can't even take my eyes off of him? What's worse is when I catch him looking back at me, I want to forget about the bad boy I've heard about in the news. He says he's never been that guy and I should give him a chance. But am I really that lucky? THE BALLAD OF JUDE The biggest rock band in the world owes it all to a muse. Zoey Ackerman has a weakness--rock stars. Their looks, their swagger, and if they tried to sweet talk her with some lyrics, she'd probably melt on the spot. But when she takes a summer job at the hottest club in LA, the last thing she expects is to have to clean up after a bunch of wannabes. Back stage at amateur night, Jude Morrison is ready to give up on his dreams of rock stardom. That is until he meets a pretty club rat. She's spirited, smart, and different from the other girls he's always falling for. And when she says she believes in him, he knows he's finally found his muse. Zoey had no idea a summer job would lead to her helping create one of the biggest rock bands in the world. But when Jude goes on tour, can their love survive the temptations of sex, drugs and rock n roll? This is a spin off from the novel Lucky Break. Lucky includes a brand-new epilogue, extended scenes, and a special note from the author about the inspiration behind Lucky and Jude.

When Heather started her journey into parenthood she never thought it would look like this, never planned to have three adopted children, and certainly never imagined that two of them would have Down syndrome. But like most things God does, once she stepped into the craziness and confusion that comes with the unknown and the unplanned, she realized that they were indeed among the lucky few. Discover in this book what 70,000+ followers of Heather's hit Instagram account @macymakesmyday already know: the power of faith and family can help us stay strong in the toughest times. This book will also be especially touching to those with adopted family members or children with Down syndrome in their lives.

The inside story of the historic 2020 presidential election and Joe Biden’s harrowing ride to victory, from the #1 New York Times bestselling authors of Shattered, the definitive account of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign. Almost no one thought Joe Biden could make it back to the White House—not Donald Trump, not the two dozen Democratic rivals who sought to take down a weak front-runner, not the mega-donors and key endorsers who feared he could not beat Bernie Sanders, not even Barack Obama. The story of Biden’s cathartic victory in the 2020 election is the story of a Democratic Party at odds with itself, torn between the single-minded goal of removing Donald Trump and the push for a bold progressive agenda that threatened to alienate as many voters as it drew. In Lucky, #1 New York Times bestselling authors Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes use their unparalleled access to key players inside the Democratic and Republican campaigns to unfold how Biden’s nail-biting run for the presidency vexed his own party as much as it did Trump. Having premised his path on unlocking the Black vote in South Carolina, Biden nearly imploded before he got there after a relentless string of misfires left him freefalling in polls and nearly broke. Allen and Parnes brilliantly detail the remarkable string of chance events that saved him, from the botched Iowa caucus tally that concealed his terrible result, to the pandemic lockdown that kept him off the stump, where he was often at his worst. More powerfully, Lucky unfolds the pitched struggle within Biden’s general election campaign to downplay the very issues that many Democrats believed would drive voters to the polls, especially in the wake of Trump’s response to nationwide protests following the murder of George Floyd. Even Biden’s victory did not salve his party’s wounds; instead, it revealed a surprising, complicated portrait of American voters and crushed Democrats’ belief in the inevitability of a blue wave. A thrilling masterpiece of political reporting, Lucky is essential reading for understanding the most important election in American history and the future that will come of it.
