- Untethered / by Timmer, Julie Lawson,author.;
"When Char Hawthorn's husband dies unexpectedly, she is left questioning everything she once knew to be true: from the cozy small town life they built together to her relationship with her stepdaughter, who is suddenly not bound to Char in any real way. Untethered explores what bonds truly form a family and how, sometimes, love knows no bounds. Char Hawthorn, college professor, wife and stepmother to a spirited fifteen-year-old daughter, loves her family and the joyful rhythms of work and parenting. But when her husband dies in a car accident, the "step" in Char's title suddenly matters a great deal. In the eyes of the law, all rights to daughter Allie belong to Lindy, Allie's self-absorbed biological mother, who wants to girl to move to her home in California. While Allie begins to struggle in school and tensions mount between her and Char, Allie's connection to young Morgan, a ten-year-old-girl she tutors, seems to keep her grounded. But then Morgan, who was adopted out of foster care, suddenly disappears, and Char is left to wonder about a possible future without Allie and what to do about Morgan, a child caught up in a terrible crack in the system"--

- Balto : un roman / by Moore, Carole,1963-; Lavoie, Camille,1967-;
Pour se sentir mieux dans sa peau et susciter l'admiration autour de lui, Julien aimerait bien être premier de classe. Mais la tâche se révèle ardue pour celui qui est incapable de demeurer attentif plus que quelques minutes d'affilée. Lorsqu'il apprend la venue d'un bébé dans sa famille, il voit déjà son cadet devenir meilleur que lui dans tous les domaines et retenir toute l'attention de ses parents. Or, ce que le garçon ne sait pas encore, c'est que le bébé en question est un chiot très énergique et qu'il lui faudra beaucoup de patience et de dévouement pour faire du dénommé Balto son meilleur ami pour la vie.
