A Charmed Life

" Don't you want to move back to New York with Dad?"

Bella Kirkwood was living the life full of luxury in New York City. But when her Mother remarries to a wrestler named Jake, things change a lot. Bella and her Mom move to Oklahoma to live with Jake and his boys in the country. Bella thinks her life is completely ruined- her Dad takes away her credit card and she gets no cell phone service. Bella thinks her school life is rotten too. All the kids hate her, and as part of the school newspaper, Bella has to go dumpster diving for an article on the School Lunches. When someone tries to chase Bella and her family out of Oklahoma and back to New York, things get a little wild.

" Lulu, I wouldn't even know where to begin."

Em Watts didn't want to go with her sister to get an autograph signed at a new SoHo Stark Megastore. All she wanted to do was stay home and read a book. But when Em realizes that the guy signing autographs is more good-looking than she thought, it wasn't so bad. What she didn't know, was that she was about to be in an accident that would change not only her life, but also a teen super-star model's life forever.

Out of My Mind

Out of My Mind

"I guess I figured out I was different a little at a time. Since I never had trouble thinking or remembering, it actually sort of surprised me that I couldn't do stuff. And it made me angry."

Eleven-year-old Melody was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy when she was born. She has never been able to talk for herself, or do what she wants to do very easily. But when she goes to school for the first time, her teachers and friends notice something different about her: Melody has a photographic memory.  She is tested for a quizzing team, and makes the team with a perfect score on the test. Having Melody on the quizzing team does wonders! They make it all the way to Nationals in Washington D.C., but things go wrong: one thing after another.
