READ and HEAR edition: Conrad and the Cowgirl Next Door, the second book in “The Next Door Series,” tells the tale of a young boy whose biggest challenge during his summer of cowboy training is the know-it-all-cowgirl next door. Conrad can’t wait to start cowboy training at his Uncle Clint’s ranch, but he soon realizes he has a lot to learn – including don’t squat with spurs on and never wave your red sweatshirt at a bull. To make matter worse, Imogene Louise Lathrup, the cowgirl next door, shows up and is all too happy to point out Conrad’s shortcomings. In the follow-up to their smash hit Pirates on the Farm, author Denette Fretz and illustrator Gene Barretta team up once again to tell a humorous tale about loving your neighbor. Kids will enjoy the cowboy terminology in the back of the book, while parents will appreciate the letter from the author that includes questions that encourage discussion about what loving your neighbor really means.

Margaret can’t wait to see her family, but her homecoming is not what she expected. Traveling to be reunited with her family in the arctic, 10-year-old Margaret Pokiak can hardly contain her excitement. It’s been two years since her parents delivered her to the school run by the dark-cloaked nuns and brothers. Coming ashore, Margaret spots her family, but her mother barely recognizes her, screaming, “Not my girl.” Margaret realizes she is now marked as an outsider. And Margaret is an outsider: she has forgotten the language and stories of her people, and she can’t even stomach the food her mother prepares. However, Margaret gradually relearns her language and her family’s way of living. Along the way, she discovers how important it is to remain true to the ways of her people—and to herself. Highlighted by archival photos and striking artwork, this first-person account of a young girl’s struggle to find her place will inspire young readers to ask what it means to belong.
