The In-Between
For fans of Enchanted Air by Margarita Engle and Life in Motion by Misty Copeland, this middle grade memoir in verse with "stellar writing [and] perfect pacing" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) chronicles a young girl and her family who must start over after losing their home. In the early 2000s, thirteen-year-old Katie Van Heidrich has moved more times that she can count, for as long as she can remember. There were the slow moves where you see the whole thing coming. There were the fast ones where you grab what you can in seconds. When Katie and her family come back from an out-of-town funeral, they discover their landlord has unceremoniously evicted them, forcing them to pack lightly and move quickly. They make their way to an Extended Stay America Motel, with Katie's mother promising it's temporary. Within the four walls of their new home, Katie and her siblings, Josh and Haley, try to live a normal life--all while wondering if things would be easier living with their father. Lyrical and forthcoming, Katie navigates the complexities that come with living in-between: in between homes, parents, and childhood and young adulthood, all while remaining hopeful for the future.

Poems from the Volcano
Poems from the Volcano was written in a challenging and painful time in my life. Originally, I had bought a normal diary from WHSmiths with the thought that I would write my daily diary. I was rather overweight though. I had done a Prevention of Type II Diabetes Programme remotely using Microsoft Teams and because of this programme I was losing weight.From February 2022 I had also decided not to take any medication to treat my Bipolar Disorder. This had resulted in me not being able to sleep which resulted in me suffering horrific hallucinations. It was in the diary then I would write notes about my life. From the age of seventeen to twenty-two I had suffered different stages of mental illness which included, nervous tension, agoraphobia, schizophrenia. I was put in a psychiatric ward for four weeks. My life after that went into hell and out of sheer madness became obese. I began writing Poems from the Volcano in the Spring of 2022 and concluded in the Autumn of 2022. It is about adolescence heartbreak and the writing is inspired by own battle with heartbreak and depression. Some poems reflect political themes such as Ukraine and Russia. There is a historical poem called 'Tat', about Tutankhamun, the Egyptian pharaoh. These poems were a joy to pen.

This Is Us
This Is Us: Doron's Poems and Bernice's Story is a collection of easy-to-read poems that can be read in a group circle. Kids can effortlessly memorize and recite them before an audience. They are based on things that we do and love. These poems are for any age group, young as well as old. Readers can see how their everyday lives can be put into words in a poetry form. About the AuthorsEmmanuel Doron Louissaint was born on April 7, 2009. "Doron" is a Hebrew name meaning "Gift." As the name suggests, Doron's parents, Daphney and Harry, considered Doron a true gift from God as it was difficult for them to conceive a child during their first three years of marriage. They had to rely on their faith and spent several hours, months, even years in prayers before they could see their cherished and precious gift. Before Emmanuel was born, his parents had a premature four-month-old baby named Benjamin who unfortunately died during labor. This tragic moment really devastated the family but did not break their faith. Doron and his sister Liel are very precious to their parents. Doron is a very gifted child, a talented music student; he plays the piano and the cello. Doron is now in 6th grade and he only has about a month and a half to move on to 7th grade. Doron excels in school, in math, science, and has had several math, science, and academic awards. Doron is a bit reserved but caring-a characteristic that he probably got from his mom. Another aspect of Doron's characteristics is that he is strongminded. His dad would probably say he got that from him. Some of Doron's hobbies are reading, writing, exploring nature, and learning about science. Doron's dream is to become an allergist to help people suffering with allergies. Liel-Bernice Louissaint was born on December 15, 2011. "Liel" is a Hebrew name meaning "My God." Liel's parents, Daphney and Harry, would tell you that Liel is God's answer to their prayers because, just like Liel's brother Emmanuel, it was difficult for them to conceive another child after Emmanuel was born. They had to rely on their faith and spent several hours, months, even years in prayers. Liel, as her dad would say, is the "apple of my eye." Liel is a very gifted child, a talented music student. She plays the piano and the violin. Liel is also gifted spiritually. Liel is very curious about the Bible, the word of God. She also started praying and singing Christian songs at a very young age. She likes advising and encouraging people. Liel is now in 4th grade and she only has about a month and a half to move on to 5th grade. Liel excels in school, art, and has had several art and academic awards. Liel is very outgoing and caring. Another aspect of Liel's characteristics is that she is strongminded. Her dad would probably say she got that from him. Some of Liel's hobbies are reading, writing, exploring nature, and learning about animals. Liel's dream is to become a medical doctor.-Harry Louissaint
