November 24, 2015 by Valarie Budayr

Welcome back MCCBD 2016 Silver Sponsor Capstone Young Readers!

Katie Woo series: Katie Woo is a spunky, sassy, and stylish schoolgirl that readers will fall in love with. These early chapter books are perfect for explaining life changes, family celebrations and growing up. Award-winning author Fran Manushkin outdoes herself with these fun, lighthearted stories.

Katie Woo series
Sofia Martinez: Growing up in a big family, 7-year-old Sofia Martinez is used to fighting for attention. Her outgoing personality mixed with her confidence and fiery passion for everything she does gets her that attention — even if it’s sometimes mixed with trouble. Sophia is a little stubborn and a lot mischievious, so you can imagine the fun she creates in this early chapter book series. A  few Spanish words and phrases are intermixed throughout the story, bringing the importance of Sofia’s culture to life. Discussion questions, writing prompts, and a glossary complete each book.

Museum Mysteries by Steve Brezenoff andIllustrated by Lisa K. Weber

From Steve Brezenoff, author of the best-selling Field Trip Mysteries, comes a suspenseful new series — Museum Mysteries. Join four friends as they take in culture and solve crimes in the Capitol City museums. Because of their parents’ jobs in the museums, the kids have unprecedented access to the exhibits, and because of their brains, they solve mysteries that leave the pros scratching their heads. Discussion questions, writing prompts, a glossary, and nonfiction resources continue the reader’s learning experience long after the story ends.

Capstone Young ReadersVictoria Torres-Pompom Problems by Julie Bowe

Now that Victoria Torres is in middle school, being popular is more important than ever, and Victoria is positive being a cheerleader is the best way to secure her popularity. Her best friend Bea agrees to try out with her, but Victoria is going to need a lot more than Bea’s support to make the squad. The competition is stiff and includes the awful Annelise. Will Victoria remember that being a positive role model is just as important as nailing her cartwheel, or will tryouts leave her feeling far below average?

For the Right to Learn: Malala Yousafzai’s Story by Rebecca Langston-George Illustrated by Janna Bock

She grew up in a world where women were supposed to be quiet. But Malala Yousafzai refused to be silent. She defied the Taliban’s rules, spoke out for education for every girl, and was almost killed for her beliefs. This powerful true story of how one brave girl named Malala changed the world proves that one person really can make a difference.

For the Right to Learn Malala
