|  | My Dog, Cat by Marty Crisp, True Kelley
Abbie the new kid in town is picked on by the local bully, Pete Street. Abbie thinks life would be better if he didn't have such a girl-sounding name, if he were taller, and most of all, if he had a big, black dog to protect him. Abbie thinks one of his wishes might be coming true when his aunt asks if she can leave her dog with him while she travels. Abbie eagerly agrees but when he meets the dog he is disappointed: it's a tiny little Yorkie with, just like him, an inappropriate name--in this case, Cat. However, as Abbie gets to know Cat, he realizes that nothing is as important as having a big heart. Illustrated with b&w drawings. AUTHOR: Marty Crisp, True Kelley

 | The Lightkeeper's Daughter by Iain Lawrence
Three years have passed since Squid McCrae last saw her parents and the remote island where she grew up. She returns now at seventeen, a young woman with a daughter in tow. The visit, she knows, will be rough. Lizzie Island--paradise to some, a stifling prison to others--brings an onslaught of memories. It is the place of Squid's idyllic childhood, where she and her brother, Alastair, blossomed into precocious adolescents. But Lizzie Island is also the place where Alastair died. Now the past collides with the present as Squid's homecoming unleashes bittersweet recollections, revelations, and accusations. But nothing is what it appears to be. No one possesses the complete truth, and no one is without blame. AUTHOR: Iain Lawrence
