Terence Blacker. Parent Swap. (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2006)
Don Calame. Swim the Fly. (Candlewick, 2009)
Timothy Carter. Evil? (Flux, 2009)
Brilliant! A harrowing and hilarious riff on "The Crucible", with more than enough hot-button issues to
taunt those censors that Arthur Miller took aim at half a century ago (you have been warned). Like
Christopher Moore? Then you need to pick up "Evil?" Disappointed by Lauren Kate's "Fallen"? Try this
instead. You will never look at angels the same way again.

Daniel H. Wilson. Bro-Jitsu: The Martial Art of Sibling Smackdown. (Bloomsbury, 2010)
Physical and psychological torture of bratty little brothers and bossy older sisters is part of a grand
tradition going back to caveman times. Master the arts of noogies, fake nipples, the hanging spit fake,
and the python leg squeeze, then hide this book before your brother finds it and turns this ancient art
against you!
