Cynthia Lord Books Overview
Hot Rod Hamster!
Old car, new car, shiny painted blue car Rust car, clean car, itty bitty green car. WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE? Newbery Honor author Cynthia Lord and New York Times bestselling illustrator Derek Anderson put the pedal to the medal in this endearing, rhythmic, rip roaring race to the finish line where a hamster creates a sizzling hot rod with a little help from his new furry friends and YOU!
Rules
A heartfelt and witty debut about feeling different and finding acceptance beyond the Rules. Twelve year old Catherine just wants a normal life. Which is near impossible when you have a brother with autism and a family that revolves around his disability. She’s spent years trying to teach David the Rules from ‘a peach is not a funny looking apple’ to ‘keep your pants on in public’ in order to stop his embarrassing behaviors. But the summer Catherine meets Jason, a paraplegic boy, and Kristi, the next door friend she’s always wished for, it’s her own shocking behavior that turns everything upside down and forces her to ask: What is normal?
Touch Blue
Touch Blue and your wish will come true.’Why take chances?’ says eleven year old Tess Brooks. ‘Especially when it’s so easy to let the universe know what you want by touching blue or turning around three times or crossing your fingers.’But Tess is coming to know that it’s not always that simple. The state of Maine plans to shut down her island’s schoolhouse, which would force Tess’s family to move to the mainland and Tess to leave the only home she has ever known. Fortunately, the islanders have a plan too: increase the numbers of students by having several families take in foster children. So now Tess and her family are taking a chance on Aaron, a thirteen year old trumpet player who has been bounced from home to home. And Tess needs a plan of her own and all the luck she can muster. Will Tess’s wish come true or will her luck run out?Newbery Honor author Cynthia Lord offers a warm hearted, humorous, and thoughtful look at what it means to belong and how lucky we feel when we do. Touch Blue, sure as certain, will touch your heart.
