Soccer...Football?!?
It's the start of the school year and everyone knows what that means: fall sports. Mart穩n is a 9th-grader at the local high school who has been waiting for soccer season to start since...well, since he started playing when he was 5 years old. But Mart穩n doesn't even make the 9th-grade team. But, not only has Mart穩n been waiting for this day, but so has his father who is an avid soccer fan. What's Mart穩n to do? Jamal is equally as excited for the sports season. He loves football more than anything and has been studying the game since elementary school. It's his senior year so he is hoping for a winning season and maybe even a look from some college scouts. But Jamal may not even get to play if he can't earn a passing grade in his worst class: Spanish. Jamal has a lot riding on this season in hopes of a scholarship. How will Jamal pass Spanish? Coach Albano is excited for the new season, too. Starting his third year as the head football coach, he's still the new guy with a lot to prove, but he's up for the challenge. The team definitely has the talent to make it to the playoffs, but there is not one player who has the skill necessary to kick the ball on special teams. Not one. And if that weren't enough, Coach's job is further tested by the director of the Board of Education. Which situation will be tougher for Coach to handle?

Tibbles the Cat
Featuring quirky, vintage-inspired illustrations, this charming story tells the tale of a cat moving to a new island home, where things take an unexpected turn.When a curious cat named Tibbles and her owner move across the world from England to a new home on a small island off the coast of New Zealand in 1894, everything seems idyllic at first. Then things go horribly wrong. In this charming little story, the oblivious, amusing hero, Tibbles, discovers a rare species of flightless bird that had never previously been described - the Stephens Island wren. Unfortunately, Tibbles also becomes the cause of the bird's extinction by preying on them.Beneath the surface of this whimsically told story is a sophisticated tragicomic plot with a foundation in Greek tragedy. Tibbles's killing of the Stephens Island wrens led to the eventual extinction of the entire species, and the tragedy is heightened by the fact that Tibbles was not a malicious or malevolent creature, but rather a normal cat behaving according to its instincts. To add insult to injury, Tibbles is not only innocent and ignorant about the effects of her actions; she is also silly, care-free, and wildly unconcerned. This book presents a true story in a subtly comedic light, but the underlying tragedy is still present, emphasizing the unintended consequences of human actions on the environment.Ultimately, the tale of Tibbles the cat had a silver lining - it brought global awareness to the dangers of introducing non-native animal species to other continents. Beautifully illustrated in a vintage style, with heavy graphic novel elements, this quirky, captivating tale will take readers on an emotional, darkly funny journey of discovery and consequence, all while teaching valuable lessons about the environment and the human impact on it. The book also includes interesting facts about the Stephens Island wren and its discovery.Tibbles is perfect for children aged 6-9 inclined towards funny stories and deep lessons. Through this unique, engaging, and darkly comedic story, kids will be entertained as they learn about history and conservation, with humor being the sugar that helps the environmentalist medicine go down. Laughing one moment and considering serious issues the next, children will learn about the impact of humans on animal species and the importance of protecting wildlife.
