Books with author Ann Bryant

Two fourteen year old girls. Two secrets, which bubble and simmer and finally explode. Bethany is convinced she can make it work. Laurette is French. She is the perfect best friend. The sister replacement. Against a backdrop of a summer holiday in England, Laurette gradually becomes aware that Bethany is not all she seemed to be in France. Unable to contact her parents, Laurette feels increasingly alone. Ann Bryant's perceptiveness and sensitivity shine through this novel. Her dialogue and characterisation are excellent, and the troubled Bethany, in particular, is complex and interesting. Right from the beginning the reader feels a sense of unease and Ann maintains the tension throughout all the twists and turns to a moving finale.

Can the Beacon Street Girls' magic act bring the house down at Abigail Adams Junior High's talent show? Maeve, Avery, Katani, Isabel, and Charlotte face their toughest challenges yet -- keeping the Movie House from going out of business and helping Isabel deal with too many demands from the Queens of Mean. Plus, Maeve's relationship with Dillon is shaky, and Marty has a crush on a pink poodle owned by the fascinating Ms. Razzberry Pink. The BSG feel like they're dealing with a juggling act, not a magic act. Can they pull everything off and save the theater?

Katani's favorite magazine, T-Biz!, is running a contest for young entrepreneurs, and she can't wait to surprise her family and the BSG with a prize-winning entry. With the deadline just a week away, major school projects due, and a promise to knit twenty(!) scarves for a Think Pink! fund-raiser, Katani is running out of time. It doesn't make things easier that Maeve has signed up for Betsy Fitzgerald's tutoring service. Betsy is Katani's competition! Katani wants to win the contest on her own, but she needs help -- and who can she turn to if not the BSG?
