March 2009

March’s roundup of New in Paperback titles includes THE CASTLE CORONA, in which Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creech weaves together two worlds that just might have more in common than meets the eye; OUTCAST, a continuation of Erin Hunter’s Warriors: Power of Three series and a thrilling new chapter in the chronicles of the Clans; FOOTBALL HERO, an action-packed novel from Tim Green that will have readers on the edge of their seats rooting for the young protagonist; CASEY BACK AT BAT by Dan Gutman, a picture book sequel to the beloved poem "Casey at the Bat"; and RALEIGH’S PAGE, Alan Armstrong’s tale of an 11-year-old boy who joins Sir Walter Raleigh’s staff as a page and earns the opportunity to sail across the ocean to explore America.
