Last night I attended the release party for Between Us Baxters, by my friend and fellow YA author Bethany Hegedus. Yay!!
I'm one of the lucky ones who got to read the book for the first time a few years ago, long before it was published. So it's especially exciting to see it in real book form for all the world to see.
Present day, Nevada. Twelve-year-old Ella and her best friend Z are mocked by their classmates and considered the "weird" kids in their 6th grade class. When a new boy, Bailey comes to their school, he befriends Ella, giving her a chance to make new friends and join a more popular crowd. But to do so, she'd have to leave Z behind. Can she make the right choice?
my first novel
CHICAGO, 1968. For thirteen-year-old Sam, it's not easy being the son of a well-known civil rights activist. When he learns that his brother, Stick, has joined The Black Panthers, Sam faces a difficult decision. Will he follow his father, or his brother? His mind, or his heart? The rock, or the river?
