The Night Climbers of Cambridge
First published in 1937, this title recounts the courageous (or foolhardy) nocturnal exploits of a group of students who climbed the ancient university and town buildings of Cambridge. The daring feats were recorded with prehistoric photographic paraphernalia, while the climbers tried to avoid detection by the 'minions of authority'. The result is a humorous adventure providing a glimpse into a side of Cambridge that has always been enshrouded in darkness.

Operation Oleander
"Many young readers will identify with the day-to-day trepidation felt by Jess, Meriwether, and the other families living on the base." —VOYA, 3Q 4P M J "Full of detail about Army life, Patterson's elegant prose brings readers deep inside Jess's conflicted point of view and the many stresses she is under, as she reevaluates her role as a member of a military family." —Publishers Weekly "Patterson poignantly depicts war's effect on those at home as Jess and her friends absorb and react to the events. This solid novel joins the growing number of books illustrating the war's effect on Afghan people." —Booklist "Patterson has an amazing ability to convey the tension and fear that families and friends of deployed soldiers bear every day and the heart-stopping terror when news programs show violence against troops that may result in one of their loved ones being wounded or dead." —School Library Journal "Patterson writes with compassion for both sides of this thorny issue, and her steady focus on the emotional trauma of the stateside teens keeps the story from devlolving into a coolly cerebral exercise in anti-terrorism strategy." —Bulletin —
