Se dice que el poderoso dios Quetzalcóatl, la serpiente emplumada, ayudó a crear la Tierra. Fue un héroe que tuvo la valentía de recuperar los huesos de la humanidad que había robado el malvado Señor del inframundo.

No se sabe mucho sobre su hermano gemelo, Xólotl, quien, con su cabeza de perro, es el dios del relámpago, de la muerte y de la mala desgracia.

Un verdadero monstruo.

PERO ESTO ES LO QUE REALMENTE OCURRIÓ.

De Donna Barba Higuera, galardonada con la medalla Newbery, y la ilustradora Mariana Ruiz Johnson, nos llega una singular reinterpretación del mito azteca sobre el origen del hombre--y de su mejor amigo--que es, en pocas palabras, una moderna obra maestra.

***

It is said the mighty feathered serpent god, Quetzalcoatl, helped create the earth. He is the hero who stole back the bones of humanity from the evil god of the Underworld. In his quest to bring humans to the earth, Quetzalcoatl's dog-headed twin brother, Xolotl, was present. Not much is known of Xolotl, the god of lightning, death, and misfortune. A monster.

This is what really happened.

From Newbery Medalist Donna Barba Higuera and illustrator Mariana Ruiz Johnson comes a singular reimagining of the Aztec myth of the origin of man--and man's best friend--that is nothing short of a modern masterpiece.

When a San Francisco treasure hunt ropes two ex-besties back together, they'll end up digging into their own complicated, buried feelings in this queer YA rom com!

"A delightful romance, treasure hunt, and celebration of queer history all rolled into one."--Kelly Quindlen, bestselling author of She Drives Me Crazy

Cam was the one who discovered the hunt. He brought it to Ivy like an offering, took her hand as they combed through San Francisco, searching for treasure and conspiring against the heteronormative agenda. But that was back then.

Now juniors, they're both out and proud--Cam as a trans man and Ivy as gay--but their friendship isn't as assured. Problem is, Ivy can't reveal Cam's past betrayal without airing closely guarded secrets of her own.

As Ivy comes across the missing link in the treasure hunt from their childhood, she's certain she can put the clues together and finally come out on top in the cat-and-mouse game Cam's been playing with her ever since their friendship ended.

Once Cam gets wind of Ivy's renewed interest in the hunt, the ex-best friends will go head-to-head in their search for gold. But as they get digging, they'll uncover more things buried between them than they bargained for.

I am the one they call the Monster Down Deep.
Except... I am not really a monster. I am just the Very Afraid Fish.

Somewhere off the coast of San Diego, the yacht of billionaire Clifton Royce III has capsized. While most of the vessel's belongings have been reclaimed, one piece remains lost: a 74-carat diamond necklace, worth over $50 million dollars. And for the person who finds this gem, there is a $1 million reward up for grabs.

No one is more determined to find the necklace than 11-year-old Cassie Stein. Her dad's beloved aquarium is on the brink of financial ruin, and that money could be the answer to all their problems. Armed with her trusty metal detector, Sylvia, Cassie begins her search.

But while hunting for the treasure, she discovers something that may be even more valuable than the diamond. A fish, unlike any she has ever seen before. One that seems to understand her every word perfectly. His name is Blue, and he desperately needs Cassie's help.

As news of her once-in-a-lifetime discovery spreads, however, Cassie is torn between two impossible choices: protect Blue and help him find his way home... or embrace the fame and fortune that could change her life forever.

But when all the magic in Haventry suddenly goes missing, it's up to YOU to find out who took it and get it back in time for the opening ceremony! Should you tail the head of the powerful Magic Circle, Grandmaster Dimbleby, or does the newly crowned king of the elves raise your suspicions? Could Enid the Evil Enchantress be too obvious a suspect, or is Moondance the meditating unicorn deceptively innocent?

YOU decide! And you better do so quickly, because without magic to harness it, an ancient monster is rising from its century-long sleep under the town.
