Rebecca Stead - Liar and Spy

The Newbery Medal-winning author ofWhen You Reach Me discusses her achingly real and laugh-out-loud funny new novel about the challenges of seventh grade, featuring a mysterious neighbor; a new friend named Safer, a twelve-year-old coffee-drinking loner and self-appointed spy; and his SweeTart-loving sister, Candy. This delicious and complex story is "as close to perfect as middle-grade novels come" - Publishers Weekly. Ages 9-12.
