Филлис Рейнольдс Нейлор — новинки

Одиннадцатилетний Марти Престон живёт в американской сельской глубинке вместе с родителями и сёстрами. Дом Престонов затерялся в живописных холмах близ городка Френдли, что в штате Западная Вирджиния. Людей здесь немного, зато несложно повстречать сурка, змею, лисицу или даже оленя.

Однажды мальчик находит запуганную охотничью собаку и выясняет, что она принадлежит суровому браконьеру Джаду Трэверсу и сбежала от жестокого обращения. Марти ищет возможность помочь собаке, но его небогатой семье непросто даже содержать бесполезное в хозяйстве животное, а уж о том, чтобы выкупить собаку у владельца, и речи быть не может! Что же делать? В окрестностях Френдли не принято совать нос в чужие дела, перечить старшим, а уж тем более покушаться на чужую собственность, но для спасения собаки Марти придётся преступить все эти правила.

From the Newbery Award–winning author of Shiloh comes a middle-grade novel that combines adrenaline-fueled adventure with a poignant coming-of-age story about a boy who loves the challenges he faces when caving but finds daily life dealing with his stuttering problem a most difficult challenge.


Buck Anderson’s life seems to be changing completely. His best friend, David, has moved away; his anxious parents are hounding him more than ever; he has reluctantly agreed to fill in for his uncle and do odd jobs for a grumpy old veteran in town; and his twin sister has a new boyfriend and is never around anymore. To top it all off, Buck is bullied by a group of boys at school—mainly because he stutters.

There is one thing that frees Buck from his worries. It is the heart-pounding exhilaration he feels when exploring underground caves in and around his hometown. He used to go caving with David, but he's determined to continue on his own now. He doesn’t know that more changes are headed his way—changes that just might make him rethink his view of the world and his place in it.

Ivy June Mosely and Catherine Combs, two girls from different parts of Kentucky, are participating in the first seventh-grade student exchange program between their schools.

Since Ivy June’s house is crowded, she lives with her grandparents. Her Pappaw works in the coal mines supporting four generations of kinfolk. Ivy June can’t wait until he leaves that mine forever and retires. As the girls get closer, they discover they’re more alike than different, especially when they face the terror of not knowing what’s happening to those they love most.

The Hatford-Malloy feud continues in this fast-paced sequel to The Boys Start the War and The Girls Get Even (both Delacorte, 1993). Their egos still smarting from the humiliation they suffered on Halloween at the hands of their female neighbors, the Hatford boys try to frighten them with tales of the abaguchie, a creature of local legend. A funny series of plans for revenge and retaliation from both sides follows. Ultimately, the children call a truce when they are united by a common cause-sharing a joke at their parents' expense. Although this title sums up the background of the story clearly, it relies on the earlier books for characterization. The girls come across as stereotypes-an athlete, a bookworm, and an aspiring actress-and the boys are virtually indistinguishable from one another. Nevertheless, fans of the previous books will enjoy this installment.
