"The people of Pimsler, Colorado, never much believed in a boogieman—especially not some monster living under their beds. They thought they could stay safe by turning a blind eye to the reality of wicked people who paraded themselves in the light of goodness. They thought they’d be okay, but they were wrong. It turns out the boogieman is real, and he’s everywhere. In cities across America and the world, good citizens turn their backs on what’s right in the name of safety and security. There are plenty of folks like that in Pimsler, but things are about to change. A Bible teacher, a corrupted minister, a prominent businessman, and a gritty cop are in the midst of a twisted plot that captures innocent children and pushes the limits of the righteous beyond what any person thought possible. Good men are desperate to save not only lives but souls, too. This is a divine battle, fought on the Colorado streets. But even if the brave few of Pimsler can stop the spread of evil in their own neighborhood, the chase must go on to capture the evil that steals, lies, and kills. Christ wants to capture the hearts of the disillusioned, but is it too late?"
“A Haitian grandmother and granddaughter share a holiday, a family recipe, and a story of freedom. . . . A stunning and necessary historical picture book.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) The shake-shake of maracas vibrates down to my toes. Ti Gran’s feet tap-tap to the rhythm. Every year, Haitians all over the world ring in the new year by eating a special soup, a tradition dating back to the Haitian Revolution. This year, Ti Gran is teaching Belle how to make Freedom Soup just like she was taught when she was a little girl. Together, they dance and clap as they prepare the holiday feast, and Ti Gran tells Belle about the history of the soup, the history of Belle’s family, and the history of Haiti, where Belle’s family is from. In this celebration of cultural traditions passed from one generation to the next, Jacqueline Alcántara’s lush illustrations bring to life both Belle’s story and the story of the Haitian Revolution. Tami Charles’s lyrical text, as accessible as it is sensory, makes for a tale that readers will enjoy to the last drop.
