There are so many unanswered questions, so many things that make no sense. Jenny's sister has been murdered at Chase College's theater camp in Wisteria. The police say it was probably a serial killer passing through. Jenny is not so sure and registers herself anonymously at the same camp. There she finds a web of possible suspects who might have had a reason to harm her sister. Even more terrifying are the scenes inside Jenny's head.

 | The Summer of Stanley by Donald Gates, Natalie Kinsey-Warnock In this picture book set in 1945, Molly gets a rather unusual present for her ninth birthday--a goat named Stanley. Molly doesn't want a goat, and Molly's mother, who is worried about her husband who is fighting in World War II, doesn't want to be bothered with Stanley either. It is only Molly's younger brother, Tyler, who loves Stanley and sticks up for him when he gets in trouble (mostly for eating anything he can find--including his mother's garden and a neighbor's new dress). Will Molly ever believe that Stanley is really the best present she could have ever received? Illustrated with colored pencil drawings.
