This Star Won't Go Out is a poignant collection of the journals, fiction, letters, and sketches of the late Esther Grace Earl, a vibrant young girl who touched many lives before passing away in 2010 at the tender age of 16.

With heartfelt photographs and essays by family and friends, this book beautifully narrates Esther’s journey. The introduction by award-winning author John Green, who dedicated his #1 bestselling novel The Fault in Our Stars to her, adds a special touch.

This collection is not just a tribute but a celebration of a life filled with love, courage, and hope. It reminds us of the true meaning of life—helping and loving others—even in the face of adversity.

Stolen from her village, sold to the highest bidder, fifteen-year-old Amari has only one thing left of her own: hope.

Amari's life was once perfect. Engaged to the handsomest man in her tribe, adored by her family, and living in a beautiful village, she could not have imagined everything could be taken away from her in an instant. But when slave traders invade her village and brutally murder her entire family, Amari finds herself dragged away to a slave ship headed to the Carolinas, where she is bought by a plantation owner and given to his son as a birthday present.

Survival seems all that Amari can hope for. But then an act of unimaginable cruelty provides her with an opportunity to escape, and with an indentured servant named Polly, she flees to Fort Mose, Florida, in search of sanctuary at the Spanish colony. Can the elusive dream of freedom sustain Amari and Polly on their arduous journey, fraught with hardship and danger?

A poignant and suspenseful retelling of a classic fairy tale set in a war-torn world. In the last months of the Nazi occupation of Poland, two children are left by their father and stepmother to find safety in a dense forest. Because their real names will reveal their Jewishness, they are renamed "Hansel" and "Gretel." They wander in the woods until they are taken in by Magda, an eccentric and stubborn old woman called a "witch" by the nearby villagers.

Magda is determined to save them, even as a German officer arrives in the village with his own plans for the children. Louise Murphy's haunting novel of journey and survival, of redemption and memory, powerfully depicts how war is experienced by families and especially by children.
