|  | Lost Boys by James Garbarino
This study investigates the psychological, environmental, spiritual, and social causes of violence in young boys. After concluding that there is no sole solution, the author encourages policy makers and social workers to create spiritual institutions, rather than prisons, in order to help convicted juveniles develop a sense of meaning beyond their own selves.

 | Final Jeopardy by Bernadette Dunne, Linda A. Fairstein
Alexandra Cooper is the assistant district attorney in charge of Manhattan`s sex crime prosecution. Alex is shocked one morning to read her own obituary in the headlines, when it is really movie star Isabella Lascar who has been killed--in Alex`s summer home on Martha`s Vineyard. As a prosecutor who has tried many high-profile cases, Alex has made a lot of enemies. The search for Isabella`s killer goes on while Alex continues with witness and victim interviews, serial rape investigations, and late night meetings with cops and detectives that are as much a part of her life as uptown social rounds.

 | The Kugel Valley Klezmer Band by Joan Betty Stuchner, Richard Bow, Richard Row
The only thing the people of Canada's Kugel Valley take more pride in than their noodle pudding is their klezmer band, a trio that plays at weddings, dances, and other events around the area. Ten-year-old Shira, the daughter of the band's clarinetist, loves the fiddle, and practices the band's songs on her toy fiddle in the solace of the forest. When the band's fiddler takes ill, Shira fills in for him--to the surprise and amazement of the town's citizens. With watercolor illustrations. AUTHOR: Joan Betty Stuchner, Richard Bow, Richard Row
