Les couleurs d'Ophélia
« Ophélia a six ans et elle se sent toute petite parce qu'elle vit dans le noir, le noir aveugle. Pour elle, le monde n'a plus de lumière.« Aveugle, ça veut dire aussi que je ne vois plus maman, papa, mes amies, le monde ou mon chat, Moka. Pour toujours, et ça me fait peur. »Ophélia est aussi triste de ne plus pouvoir dessiner et de ne plus voir les couleurs. Heureusement, son grand frère Raphaël est là, auprès d'elle. Au fil des saisons, des jeux et des événements du quotidien, ils feront renaître les couleurs. Le vert tendre de l'été devient le vert chance d'avoir un grand frère. Le bleu de l'eau se transforme en bleu courage pour nager à nouveau. L'indigo du firmament se métamorphose en rêves indigo pour voyager dans la voûte étoilée.Ophélia n'a plus peur... Elle a maintenant tout un arc-en-ciel ! »-- Publisher's description.

Place hand here
A young boy passes a painting of a hand on a wall in his neighborhood and watches others placing their own hands against it. The act means something different for each of them: Ms. Iris tells him it is a link to her home country; for Devin, it connects him to his older sister, who just left for college; for Savannah, it reminds her of her grandmother who passed away. The boy thinks of those who are on the other side of the mural, of loved ones lost or lonely or far away, and of his own mother, who is currently incarcerated. While he waits for her to come home, the hand is there to connect them to each other and remind them that they are not alone.

The space between here & now
Perfect for fans of They Both Die at the End and You've Reached Sam, this gripping, atmospheric YA novel follows a teen with a mysterious condition that transports her to the past when she smells certain scents linked to specific memories. Seventeen-year-old Aimee Roh has Sensory Time Warp Syndrome, a rare condition that causes her to time travel to a moment in her life when she smells something linked to that memory. Her dad is convinced she'll simply grow out of it if she tries hard enough, but Aimee's fear of vanishing at random has kept her from living a normal life. When Aimee disappears for nine hours into a memory of her estranged mom--a moment Aimee has never remembered before--she becomes distraught. Not only was this her longest disappearance yet, but the memory doesn't match up with the story of how her mom left--at least, not the version she's always heard from her dad. Desperate for answers, Aimee travels to Korea, where she unravels the mystery of her memories, the truth about her mother, and the reason she keeps returning to certain moments in her life. Along the way, she realizes she'll need to reconcile her past in order to save her present. From acclaimed author Sarah Suk comes an aching, powerful exploration of memory, grief, and the painful silences we must overcome to discover our truest selves.
