Title: Blackbird Fly

Author: Erin Entrada Kelly

Narrator: Ferdelle Capistrano

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5:33:29

Language: English

Release date: 03-09-21

Publisher: Greenwillow Books

Genres: Kids, Health & Family

Summary:

Future rock star or friendless misfit? Thats no choice at all. In this acclaimed novel by Newbery Medalist Erin Entrada Kelly, twelve-year-old Apple grapples with being different; with friends and backstabbers; and with following her dreams.

Publishers Weekly called Blackbird Fly a true triumph, and the Los Angeles Times Book Review said, Apple soars like the eponymous blackbird of her favorite Beatles song.

Apple has always felt a little different from her classmates. She and her mother moved to Louisiana from the Philippines when she was little, and her mother still cooks Filipino foods and chastises Apple for becoming too American. When Apples friends turn on her and everything about her life starts to seem weird and embarrassing, Apple turns to music. If she can just save enough to buy a guitar and learn to play, maybe she can change herself. It might be the music that saves her . . . or it might be her two new friends, who show her how special she really is.

Erin Entrada Kelly deftly brings Apples conflicted emotions to the page in her debut novel about family, friendship, popularity, and going your own way. A must-read for those kids cringing at their own identities.Bulletin of the Center for Childrens Books.

Title: Liftoff: Elon Musk and the Desperate Early Days That Launched SpaceX

Author: Eric Berger

Narrator: Rob Shapiro

Format: Unabridged

Length: 9:03:55

Language: English

Release date: 03-02-21

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: Business & Economics, Science & Technology, Astronomy & Physics, History, Business Development

Summary:

The dramatic inside story of the first four historic flights that launched SpaceXand Elon Muskfrom a shaky startup into the world's leading edge rocket company. 

In 2006, SpaceXa brand-new venture with fewer than 200 employeesrolled its first, single-engine rocket onto a launch pad at Kwajalein Atoll. After a groundbreaking launch from the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the Falcon 1 rocket designed by Elon Musks engineers rose in the air for approximately thirty seconds. Then, its engine flamed out, and the rocket crashed back into the ocean. 

In 2007, SpaceX undertook a second launch. This time, the rocket rose far into space, but just before reaching orbit it spun out of control. Confident of success in 2008, Musk and his team launched their third rocket with several paying customers. The first stage executed perfectly, but instead of falling away, it thudded into the second stage. Another failure. Elon Musk had only budgeted for three attempts when he founded SpaceX.

Out of money and with a single Falcon 1 rocket left in its factory, SpaceX decided to try one last, dramatic launch. Over eight weeks, engineers worked furiously to prepare this final rocket. The fate of Musks venture mirrored the trajectory of this slender, single-engine rocket aimed toward the skies. If it crashed and burned, so would SpaceX. In September 2008, SpaceXs last chance for success lifted off . . . and accelerated like a dream, soaring into orbit flawlessly.

That success would launch a miraculous decade for the company, in which SpaceX grew from building a single-engine rocket to one with a staggering 27 engines; created two different spacecraft, and mastered reusable-rocket descents using mobile drone ships on the open seas. It marked a level of production and achievement that has not been seen since the space race of the 1960s.

But these achievements would not have been possible without SpaceXs first four flight tests. Drawing on unparalleled access and exclusive interviews with dozens of former and current employeesengineers, designers, mechanics, and executives, including Elon MuskEric Berger tells the complete story of this foundational generation that transformed SpaceX into the worlds leading space company.

Title: Bring Back Our Girls: The Untold Story of the Global Search for Nigerias Missing Schoolgirls

Narrator: Will Damron

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:08:18

Language: English

Release date: 03-02-21

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Current Affairs, Global Politics, General

Summary:

What happens after you click Tweet? The heart-stopping definitive account of the mission to rescue hundreds of Nigerian schoolgirls whose abduction ignited a global social media campaign and a dramatic worldwide intervention. 

In the spring of 2014, millions of Twitter users, including some of the worlds most famous people, unwittingly helped turn a group of 276 schoolgirls abducted by a little-known Islamist sect into a central prize in the global War on Terror by retweeting a call for their release: #BringBackOurGirls. With just four words, their tweets launched an army of would-be liberators. Soldiers and drones, spies, mercenaries, and glory hunters descended into an obscure conflict that few understood, in a remote part of Nigeria that had barely begun to use the internet. 

When hostage talks and military intervention failed, the schoolgirls were forced to take survival into their own hands. As their days in captivity dragged into years, the young women learned to withstand hunger, disease, and torment, and became witnesses and victims of unspeakable brutality. Many of the girls were Christians who refused to take the one path offered themconverting to their captors' fundamentalist creed. In secret, they sang hymns, and kept a diary, relying on their faith and friendships to stay alive.

Bring Back Our Girls unfolds across four continents, from the remote forests of northern Nigeria to the White House; from clandestine meetings in Khartoum safe houses to century-old luxury hotels on picturesque lakes in the Swiss Alps. A twenty-first century story that plumbs the promise and peril of an era whose politics are fueled by the power of hashtag advocacy, this urgent and engrossing work of investigative journalism reveals the unpredictable interconnectedness of our butterfly-wings world, where a few days of online activism can bring years of offline consequences for people continents away.

Title: Hurly Burly and Other Stories

Author: A.E. Coppard

Narrator: Alex Wyndham

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8:39:00

Language: English

Release date: 03-02-21

Publisher: HarperAudio

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Short Stories, Literary Fiction, Classics

Summary:

A new collection of short stories from an English master, edited and with a preface by acclaimed author Russell Banks 

Originating in the folktale and with an occasional infusion of gothic horror or fantasy, A. E. Coppards stories still feel fresh and surprising today. Coppard came to the short story later in life but left an indelible mark on it. Staunch in his belief that the short story was a distinctive form with little relation to the novel, he wove his tales out of the substance of life in the English countryside, with its memorable and distinctive characters.

Reissued with a new preface from award-winning and bestselling author Russell Banks, and including classic tales like The Black Dog, The Handsome Lady, and The Higgler, The Hurly Burly restores this enormously important writer to the position he deserves and introduces him to a new generation of readers.
