The Case of the Nasty Notes: A Ben and Blue Mystery

RedChairPress — Thu, 24 Jul 2025 00:30:03 +0000

Ben’s best friend Cooper is getting nasty notes from an unknown bully.On top of that, her dad is keeping his new girlfriend a secret. It’s up to Ben and his basset hound, Blue, to help Cooper unravel these mysteries. As they “doggedly” pursue answers, the case takes surprising twists―and what they uncover turns their assumptions upside down. A story of kindness, love, and inclusion―not to mention a harrowing day at the zoo―this second book in the Ben and Blue mystery series will resonate deeply with children from LGBTQ+ families and to children who have feelings of low self-esteem hidden deep inside, afraid of what others may think. But isn’t that most of us? And couldn’t sharing those feelings with someone you trust be the most transformative feeling of all? An Author’s Note at the end of the book includes coping strategies for helping children deal with insecurity and feelings of self-doubt.

Gone to the Dogs: Book 3 (Frankinschool)

RedChairPress — Wed, 23 Jul 2025 18:53:14 +0000

Fred's emotions have gone to the dogs! Fred's teacher and Luisa might be excited about their research trip to the library, but Fred is not. In fact, the whole project―and his continued failures at it―are making him angry! That is, until he realizes he has the perfect solution to his problem: Simply write one of his "What If" poems, tap into the power of pretend, turn into Frankinchool, and voila! Project, cancelled.Trouble is, the poem doesn't work, which makes Fred even fussier―especially when speaking to his friends Luisa and Drake. But while on a quest to find Luisa and apologize, books fly off the library shelves, students nod off at their desk, Drake grows head-snakes, and once again, Fred becomes Frankinschool. But this time, they have no idea how or why.In Book Three of the Frankinschool mysteries, readers set off on an adventure with Frankinschool through secret passageways and grand rooms of a mansion-turned-library. Along the way, they run into old ghost-friends and a few new ones; they learn about managing expectations, anger, and friendships, and discover that sometimes going-to-the-dogs is a very good thing.

Into the Wind

RedChairPress — Sat, 19 Jul 2025 00:06:40 +0000

A character-driven novel about the unlikely friendship between a 10-year-old boy and an elderly woman. The old woman badgers the boy into taking her sailing, but when the weather turns bad, it becomes a wild sail. It becomes the last trip before she goes into the hospital where she dies: but not before the two of them share memories of their last sail together. Hazel helps build the boy's confidence during a tough time in his home life. Both moving and joyful, Into the Wind is a poignant story about loss and love in a boy's life, and the surprising and sustaining bonds that can grow between the old and young.

Pop Flies, Robo-Pets, and Other Disasters

RedChairPress — Fri, 18 Jul 2025 23:15:29 +0000

Thirteen-year-old Satoshi Matsumoto spent the last three years living in Atlanta where he was the star of his middle-school baseball team―a slugger with pro potential, according to his coach. Now that his father's work in the US has come to an end, he's moved back to his hometown in rural Japan. Living abroad has changed him, and now his old friends in Japan are suspicious of his new foreign ways. Even worse, his childhood foe Shintaro, whose dad has ties to gangsters, is in his homeroom. After he joins his new school's baseball team, Satoshi has a chance to be a hero until he makes a major-league error."A heart-warming story about a baseball player who learns that teamwork is much more important than being the star of the team. I loved the family dynamics and depiction of life, and especially baseball, in Japan."―Shauna Holyoak, author of Kazu Jones and the Denver Dognappers (Hyperion, 2019)"A story set in Japan rich in details only Kamata, an insider, could share. With ease and respect, she weaves the pressures, agonies, and loyalties of Satoshi's life at home, at school and on a junior high baseball team with the practices and traditions of the game played in Japan. I am a big fan of this middle-grade homerun!"―Annie Donwerth Chikamatsu, award-winning author of Somewhere Among (Atheneum/Caitlyn Dlouhy Books, 2017)"Pop Flies really pops! A lively, fun, easy read that draws you in and keeps you guessing."―Dori Jones Yang, award-winning author of The Forbidden Temptation of Baseball (SparkPress, 2017)

With a new sister on the way, Roosevelt Banks has to give up his bedroom and move into the attic, which must be haunted because of all the squeaks and groans coming from the spooky place at the top of the stairs.After his plan to move into a fort in the woods fails, and a ghost-busting exercise goes terribly wrong, Roosevelt―with the help of Tommy, Josh, and Eddie Spaghetti―has to find the courage to defeat the biggest, spookiest ghouls ever and turn the Attic of Doom into a Room with a View.
