Invisible Emmie - The lives of two middle-school girls - one a quiet artist, the other an outgoing, popular overachiever - intersect in unexpected ways in this humorous and surprising graphic novel hybrid, the debut of internationally syndicated, Reuben-award-winning cartoonist Terri Libenson. Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier and Jennifer Holm.

This is the story of two totally different middle school girls - quiet, shy Emmie and popular, outgoing Katie - and how their lives unexpectedly intersect one day, when an embarrassing note falls into the wrong hands.

Positively Izzy - Izzy is the dreamer. There's nothing Izzy loves more than acting in skits and making up funny stories. The downside? She can never quite focus enough to get her schoolwork done. Bri is the brain. But she wants people to see there's more to her than just a report card full of As. At the same time, she wishes her mom would accept her the way she is and stop bugging her to "break out of her shell" and join drama club. The girls' lives converge in unexpected ways on the day of a school talent show, which turns out to be even more dramatic than either Bri or Izzy could have imagined.

Just Jaime - The last day of seventh grade has Jaime and Maya wondering who their real friends are. Jaime knows something is off with her friend group. They've started to exclude her and make fun of the way she dresses and the things she likes. At least she can count on her BFF Maya to have her back, right? Maya feels more and more annoyed with Jaime, who seems babyish compared to the other girls in their popular group. It's like she has nothing in common with Jay anymore. Are their days as BFF numbered?

Becoming Brianna - Middle school is full of challenges. Everyone knows how much brainy Bri likes the spotlight (not). So why did she ever agree to something that forces her to learn a new language, give a speech, help organize a party, and juggle drama at school and home?! As the big event inches closer, Bri wonders if it's all worth it?

Told in alternating past and present chapters, Bri's heartwarming story unfolds over the eight months leading up to her bat mitzvah as well as over the course of the big day itself.
