Before the fall of 1999, Siobhan, Carmen and Tremaine didn't know the first thing about being or having real friends.

As the new guy in town, Louisiana native and reformed bad boy, Tremaine Johnson, wants nothing more than to keep a low-profile at his new school in Los Angeles. After latching onto Siobhan on his first day, Tremaine begins to discover a different side of life--one that doesn't involve selling drugs and being the man of the house, but instead being a kid and making mistakes his uncle wishes he wouldn't. When Siobhan and Carmen are unexpectedly thrust into one another's lives following a series of unfortunate events, they must learn how to coexist and keep history from repeating itself as an unsettled feud between their mothers comes to a head, in the midst of dealing with relationship issues and personal traumas that they've never shared with anyone else.Down to Ride is a triumphant coming-of-age story that explores what it means to be a friend when you're going through your own storm.

Des numéros de cirque se succèdent, un magicien transforme son chat en paon ; le dompteur est-il dompté ? Clown et acrobates jouent, et finalement la danseuse funambule salue. Le projet Circus Maximus est né de l’idée de faire des histoires très courtes qui peuvent faire l’objet d’une respiration dans une lecture d’autres titres, trois planches qui se suivent en racontant un petit événement. Paraît simultanément dans la même collection : Qui a vu l’ours et Valentine.

The first day of middle school is a big deal for anyone. I mean, come on. It’s middle school! The excitement of choosing your class schedule and picking out your first days’ outfit would give any kid a rush. But Dakota J. has a different agenda. Just months after receiving the news that he’s losing his eyesight, 11-year old Dakota Jenkins, born with a condition known as Oculocutaneous Albinism, creates a bucket list of sorts, and sets out on a number of adventures, hoping to experience life ahead of his time. Everything that he’s ever wanted to experience in his coming years as a teen is on the line, and it’s now or never. In this first book of an exciting debut series, a long list of adventures couldn’t possibly begin without a couple of hilariously overly dramatic best friends, Muffin and Sisi, and the coolest mom on the planet, Dr. Melanie Jenkins. Losing your vision could be the worst thing in the world, or it could turn into something amazing and lead to a lifetime of memories…ones you don’t need eyes for. Be sure to grab a copy for the kid, or adult, in your life. You’re sure to enjoy it!
