[ISLMA-Share] Cataloging and title questions

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

For your book questions:

Could the first book be "Friends for Life" by Andrew Norriss? "Francis
Meredith is a boy who is interested in fashion and costuming, which has
made him a target at school, but when he meets Jessica and Andi his life
begins to change--Andi is an athletic girl with a reputation for fighting
and family in the fashion business, and Jessica is a ghost who has no idea
how she died"


And I think the second book may be "Hidden Girl: The True Story of a
Modern-Day Child Slave" by Shyima Hall-- except the summary says that her
Egyptian parents sold her into slavery, not that her village was destroyed.
