New in Paperback

April 2013

April's roundup of New in Paperback includes Kate Messner's CAPTURE THE FLAG in which Anna, José and Henry are snowed in a chaotic  Washington, D.C. airport and set out to catch the stolen flag that inspired "The Star-Spangled Banner;" Trenton Lee Stewart's THE EXTRAORDINARY EDUCATION OF NICHOLAS BENEDICT, which follows narcoeptic, nine-year-old Nicholas Benedict as he is sent to a new orphanage, where he will encounter a mystery that will change his life forever; and LUNCH LADY AND THE VIDEO GAME VILLAIN by Jarrett J. Krosoczka, where Hector runs for student council president while school security is at stake as student and staff high-tech gadgets begin to disappear.
