May’s roundup of New in Paperback titles includes AIRMAN, a story of high adventure from Artemis Fowl creator Eoin Colfer about a boy whose happy, carefree life is changed forever when he discovers a conspiracy to overthrow the king; ONE SMALL STEP by Children of the Lamp author P. B. Kerr, in which a 13-year-old recruited by NASA for their secret space program journeys to the moon with two chimps as his partners; THE CASE OF THE BIZARRE BOUQUETS, the fourth installment in Nancy Springer’s Enola Holmes Mystery series that finds the much younger sister of Sherlock Holmes investigating the disappearance of Sherlock’s right-hand man, Dr. Watson; and a graphic novel adaptation of Neil Gaiman's enchanting, nationally bestselling children's book CORALINE.
