Eragon
Aku berpikir lama dan mendalam selama beberapa hari terakhir, dan kusadari apa artinya menjadi naga dan Penunggang: sudah menjadi takdir kita untuk mencoba yang mustahil, melakukan perbuatan-perbuatan besar tanpa memedulikan rasa takut. Itulah tanggung jawab kita pada masa depan. Suatu hari Eragon, anak petani miskin berusia lima belas tahun, menemukan “batu” biru yang indah. Ternyata batu itu telur naga! Ditemani Brom si pendongeng tua dan naga yang dinamainya Saphira, Eragon belajar berbagai hal mengenai sejarah dan naga. Brom juga mengajarkan ilmu sihir dan ilmu pedang karena ternyata Eragon adalah penerus klan para Penunggang Naga. Klan ini punah akibat ditumpas Raja Galbatorix yang kejam. Berbekal ilmu dari Brom, Eragon bertekad membangun kembali klan Penunggang Naga, meskipun itu berarti ia harus menghadapi berbagai makhluk ajaib seperti elf, kurcaci, Urgal, Ra’zac, dan Shade, yang memiliki ilmu jauh lebih tinggi daripada dirinya.

Kid Authors
Funny and totally true childhood biographies and full-color illustrations tell the tales from the growing-up years of Beverly Cleary, J. R. R. Tolkien, and 13 other great writers. Every great author started out as a kid. Before the best sellers, fan clubs, and beloved stories we know today, the world's most celebrated writers had regular-kid problems just like you. Sam Clemens (aka Mark Twain) loved to skip school and make mischief, with his best friend Tom, of course! A young J. R. R. Tolkien was bitten by a huge tarantula—or as he called it, “a spider as big as a dragon.” Toddler Zora Neale Hurston took her first steps when a wild hog entered her house and started chasing her! Kid Authors tells their stories and more—the diverse and inclusive cast that includes Roald Dahl, Beverly Cleary, J. K. Rowling, Jules Verne, Lewis Carroll, Stan Lee—through kid-friendly texts and full-color cartoon illustrations on nearly every page.

The Diamond and the Boy
Told in a unique dual-narrative format, The Diamond and the Boy follows the stories of both natural diamond creation and the life of H. Tracy Hall, the inventor of a revolutionary diamond-making machine. Perfect for fans of Rosie Revere, Engineer, and On a Beam of Light: A Story of Albert Einstein. Before a diamond is a gem, it’s a common gray rock called graphite. Through an intense trial of heat and pressure, it changes into one of the most valuable stones in the world. Before Tracy Hall was an inventor, he was a boy—born into poverty, bullied by peers, forced to work at an early age. However, through education and experimentation, he became one of the brightest innovators of the twentieth century, eventually building a revolutionary machine that makes diamonds. From debut author Hannah Holt—the granddaughter of Tracy Hall—and illustrator Jay Fleck comes this fascinating in-depth portrait of both rock and man.

In the Forests of the Night
I was born to the name of Rachel Weatere in the year 1684, more than three hundred years ago. The one who changed me named me Risika, and Risika I became, though I never asked what it meant. I continue to call myself Risika, even though I was transformed into what I am against my will. By day, Risika sleeps in a shaded room in Concord, Massachusetts. By night, she hunts the streets of New York City. She is used to being alone. But now someone is following Risika. Someone has left her a black rose, the same sort of rose that sealed her fate three hundred years ago. Three hundred years ago Risika had a family -- a brother and a sister who loved her. Three hundred years ago she was human. Now she is a vampire, a powerful one. And her past has come back to torment her. This atmospheric, haunting tale marks the stunning debut of a promising fourteen-year-old novelist.
