Lawn Boy Returns

The summer I was twelve, mowing lawns with Grandpa's old riding mower turned into big business. With advice from Arnold the stockbroker, I learned all about making money. Six weeks and hundreds of thousands of dollars later, life got more complicated. You see, the prizefighter I sponsor, Joey Pow, won a big fight. And a TV interview made me famous. As Arnold says, "Capitalism plus publicity equals monster commerce." Even my best friends wanted a piece of the action. Meanwhile, some scary guys showed up at Joey's gym. . . . Gary Paulsen's funny follow-up to Lawn Boy is full of big surprises and big laughs.

The Lawless School provides the right education for kids on the wrong side of the law. Heist Society meets Harry Potter when M Freeman enrolls at the Lawless School -- a prestigious and secretive academy for the children of criminal masterminds. M Freeman's years of unconventional homeschooling have given her a firm grasp on reading, writing, and always having an escape strategy from any room. But she had no idea that her entire elementary education has been to prepare her to follow in her father's footsteps as a star pupil of the Lawless School. Amidst the student body of young malefactors and miscreants, M navigates different criminal cliques from Crimers (tech criminals) to iDents (master forgers). And she stands out -- so much so that she's invited to join the secret society of Masters. But when her initiation takes her off campus for a real-world art heist, M realizes she's become a pawn in a deadly game between Lawless and its law-abiding rivals, the Fulbrights. Is she on the wrong side of the law after all?

Ah, y todo esto lo tienen que lograr antes del día de su cumpleaños. Azul y Ali son más que amigas, son Best Friends Forever, y como tal lo comparten todo, hasta las celebraciones de cumpleaños. Aunque este año tal vez sus planes no salgan como quisieran, entre otras cosas, porque la mamá de Ali insiste en verlas como princesas, y no entiende que ellas son algo mucho mejor: son superheroínas (bueno, apenas están aprendiendo a serlo).
