New York Times bestselling author, Newbery Honor recipient, and National Book Award finalist Steve Sheinkin presents both the heroism and the treachery of one of the Revolutionary War's most infamous players in his biography of Benedict Arnold.
Winner of the Boston Globe-Horn Book Award for NonfictionWinner of the YALSA-ALA Award for Excellence in Young Adult Nonfiction Most people know that Benedict Arnold was America's first, most notorious traitor. Few know that he was also one of its greatest Revolutionary War heroes. Steve Sheinkin's accessible biography, The Notorious Benedict Arnold, introduces young readers to the real Arnold: reckless, heroic, and driven. Packed with first-person accounts, astonishing American Revolution battle scenes, and surprising twists, this is a gripping and true adventure tale from history. "Sheinkin sees Arnold as America's 'original action hero' and succeeds in writing a brilliant, fast-paced biography that reads like an adventure novel...The author's obvious mastery of his material, lively prose and abundant use of eyewitness accounts make this one of the most exciting biographies young readers will find." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Several complex political, social, and military themes emerge, one of the most prominent being that within the Continental army, often simplistically depicted as single-minded patriots, beat hearts scheming with political machinations that are completely familiar today...Arnold's inexorable clash with Gates and his decision to turn traitor both chill and compel." --Horn Book Magazine (starred review) Also by Steve Sheinkin: Bomb: The Race to Build--and Steal--the World's Most Dangerous Weapon

Fun and fresh
Format: Hardcover
Diary of a Nature Nerd is an exciting graphic novel for emerging and younger middle-grade readers.
With a mix of illustrated diary entries and more traditional graphic novel panels, Diary of a Nature Nerd is an inviting and accessible read that will especially appeal to kids who love nature.
Author-illustrator Tiffany Everett captures the excitement — and apprehension — that comes with blending a family, even when your BFF becomes your stepsister. There are some big emotions, and Everett explores them in a way that helps kids feel seen.
The star of Diary of a Nature Nerd is, of course, nature, with lots of animals and exploring and nods to trail safety, too. Everett’s illustrations are bright, expressive and feature cute animals with almost every turn of the page.
Diary of a Nature Nerd is Everett’s graphic novel debut, but it has a fresh, rooted feel that’s just plain fun. I hope this is just the first book about Brooke and Jayla.
