Published by HarperCollins

📙 details:

The Ghosts of Rancho Espanto meets The Last Beekeeper in The Fire Serpent Legacy, a middle grade novel that follows Auri Braga as she secretly raises a newly hatched Boitatá—a fire-serpent from Brazilian mythology—to protect her family’s homeland from those who threaten to tear the Amazon down.

Auri Braga isn’t much of a fighter. With her older sister always ready to stand up for her, she’s never had to be. But when she discovers a fire serpent’s egg hidden amongst her grandmother’s tchotchkes only days before her first trip back to Brazil, she doesn’t have time to stand on the sidelines anymore.

Auri’s spent her whole life wondering what her parents were like and now she knows they were heroes: riders of the legendary Boitatás, sworn to protect the Amazon and its people. And if they believed the egg should be in Brazil, then Auri isn’t going to stop until their last wish is fulfilled—even if she has to hide the truth from her sister and avó.

But getting to the egg safely to the guardians is easier said than done, and when it suddenly hatches, she’ll need to become every bit of the rider her parents were to not only protect the new fire serpent but help him save her family’s homeland from destruction.

About the book:

Monsters, magic, and mischief abound once more in the spellbinding sequel to Where There Be Monsters, perfect for fans of The Marvellers and Amari and the Night Brothers.

Glory Brown is finally set to start her training as a junior spherinaut at the Parliamentarium. Will she turn out to be an owl, a bee, a fox, or a magpie, like her mama? She’s been waiting a lifetime for this adventure . . . and yet all she wants to do is make her family proud and try not to be homesick for the Seam and all its charm.

As Glory struggles to find her place as the new kid—one with a lot of questions and a soft spot for monsters—she’s also coping with the after-effects of Paxton’s treachery, like the curse that still plagues her. In fact, the worlds of the Outersphere are all in the process of recovering—and Glory suspects they haven’t seen the last of Paxton, either.

When top secret spherinautical charts go missing, parcels are tampered with, and the pocket-orreries go haywire, the Parliamentarium of Junior Spherinauts plunges into chaos. Now, Glory, Marcus, and their new friends must work together to figure out who the thief is and if they have what it takes to save the worlds again.

Middle school medium Paloma Ferrer is BACK for more spooky shenanigans! Out now wherever books are sold! đŸ”źđŸ‘»

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Paloma Ferrer might just have things figured out. She’s settled in at her new school. Her little sister has been way less annoying than usual. And, best of all, she’s finally gotten a handle on her ability to speak to ghosts. Everything is going great... until Rafaela de la Cruz comes to town.

Everyone knows Rafaela. She and her family are stars of a paranormal reality show, and rumor has it that Rafaela has moved to town to get away from her life of fame. But with Rafaela around, Paloma knows no one will be interested in her seances anymore.

To make matters worse, chaos has begun to surround Paloma wherever she goes—doors slamming shut with no one behind them, objects flying across the room and smashing against the wall. Something destructive has latched onto Paloma, and if she can’t figure out what it is, she’s going to have more problems to deal with than just her waning popularity.

Middle school medium Paloma Ferrer and her Cuban-American family are back for an adventure filled with surprising friendships, mischievous spirits, and a whole lot of magical mayhem.
