A terra inteira está devastada. Uma fumaça acre emana de todos os cantos. Há casas dizimadas, crianças gritando, mulheres chorando…
e devastação generalizada. Os mortos caminham sobre a Terra, e os vivos se parecem mais com os mortos a cada dia que passa. Ainda mais assustador que o barulho, contudo, é o silêncio sinistro que domina as antigas cidades, onde não há mais ninguém para chorar e nada para destruir. Enquanto isso, humanos transformados em monstros ferozes como fruto de um erro fatal vagam pela terra, prontos para silenciar ainda mais pessoas. Foi mal. Acho que estou sendo sombria demais. Meu nome é Sarah Sindile. Sou uma das sobreviventes às bombas atômicas e pestes da Terceira Guerra Mundial. Agora, continuo determinada a sobreviver à próxima onda de catástrofes. Tsunamis, terremotos e furacões não são nada em comparação com o que está acontecendo. Estamos sendo silenciados de modo lento, porém certeiro, até que não haja mais ninguém. E eu vou tentar salvar o mundo.By Luke Shephard, Félix Cortés Schöler. 2016

Newbery award-winning Julie of the WolvesIn 1848 in Barrow, Alaska, a young Eskimo boy witnesses a rare sight--the birth of a bowhead, or ice whale, that he calls Siku. But when he unwittingly guides Yankee whalers to a pod of bowhead whales, all the whales are killed. For this act, the boy receives a curse of banishment. Through the generations, this curse is handed down. Siku, the ice whale, returns year after year, in reality and dreams, to haunt each descendant. The curse is finally broken when a daughter recognizes and saves the whale, and he in turn saves her. Told in alternating voices, both human and whale, Jean Craighead George's last novel is an ambitious and touching take on the interconnectedness of humans, animals, and the earth they depend on.
