 A seventh grade prankster is determined to escape the all-girls academy where he’s the only boy—by getting expelled—in this "spectacular debut" (Kirkus Reviews) MAX novel that’s perfect for "fans of Jerry Spinelli’s Crash and Loser" (Booklist). Seventh grader Jeremy Miner has a girl problem. Or, more accurately, a girls problem. 475 of them to be exact. That’s how many girls attend his school, St. Edith’s Academy. Jeremy is the only boy left after the school’s brief experiment in co-education. And he needs to get out. His mother—a teacher at the school—won’t let him transfer, so Jeremy takes matters into his own hands: he’s going to get expelled. Together with his best friend Claudia, Jeremy unleashes a series of hilarious pranks in hopes that he’ll get kicked out with minimal damage to his permanent record. But when his stunts start to backfire, Jeremy has to decide how far he’s willing to go and whom he’s willing to knock down to get out the door.

Under Locker And Key

by Allison K. Hymas

10,55€ + 10% CARD

 Eleven-year-old Jeremy Wilderson teams up with his rival crime fighter to stop the stealing spree that’s wreaking havoc on Scottsville Middle School in this action-packed MAX novel. Jeremy Wilderson is not a thief. In fact, he is his middle school’s one and only retrieval specialist. Confiscated cell phones, stolen lunch money—he’ll discretely retrieve it before the last bell rings. Business is good, and if it weren’t for the meddling of preteen private investigator Becca Mills, he’d be happier than a gym teacher on dodgeball day. But a new job shatters his comfortable lifestyle. Now, thanks to Jeremy, the master key to the schools’ lockers is in the hands of an aspiring crime kingpin who doesn’t exactly have Jeremy’s strong moral character. Soon not even combination locks can protect the students’ textbooks and jackets. Retrieving the key is too big a job for one crime fighter, and only one person wants the key returned as much as Jeremy does: Becca Mills. Lockers are being robbed, the teachers are looking for the culprit, and the only person Jeremy can turn to is the girl who most wants to see him in the principal’s office. Will Jeremy be able to trust Becca enough to get the key back in the right hands? Or could he end up in detention until the end of high school instead?

 It’s jocks vs. nerds as a tween and his cadre of misfits go to hilarious lengths to bring down their enemies in this laugh-out-loud MAX novel. Chub is a short, accidentally bald, middle school outcast with no chance of ever becoming one of the popular kids. With help from his personal band of like-minded misfits (not to mention tactics gleaned from the Colonel, a US military vet with toenail issues), Chub’s determined to bring down his nemesis, class hero and now potential class president, Archer, or the Arch—the very guy who betrayed Chub with the lice-killing potion that left him bald as a billiard ball. If the Arch gets to be president, Chub knows his life is officially over. Chub’s got a lot of dirt on the Arch: embarrassing photos and underwear about to fly from the school flagpole, for starters. But then he discovers that there are some very dangerous skeletons in Archer’s closet, and more at stake than just a few middle school reputations. With a lot of help from his friends, Chub sets off to bring down an evil empire—and inadvertently become the least likely hero that Alanmoore Middle School’s ever seen.

Enginerds

by Jarrett Lerner

12,48€ + 10% CARD

 The battle between boys and bots is on in this funny, fast-paced novel. Ken is an EngiNerd: one of a super-smart group of friends—all nerds—who have been close since kindergarten. They may be brainiacs, but they’re just like everyone else: they fight with one another, watch too much TV, eat Chinese food, and hate walking their dogs. Well, maybe not just like everyone because Ken’s best friend Dan has been building robots. He then secretly sent one to each of the EngiNerds, never letting them know he’s the mastermind. At first Ken is awed and delighted: what kid hasn’t dreamed of having a robot all their own? Someone who can be their friend, clean their room, walk the dog, answer homework questions…how amazing is that? But be careful what you wish for: Dan’s robot, Greeeg, may look innocent, but his ravenous consumption of food—comestibles—turns him into a butt-blasting bot. And once the other robots ‘come alive’ it’s up to the motley crew of EngiNerds to not only save the day, but save the planet!

Unfortunately, it only goes downhill from there… But hey, no one ever claimed the path to enlightenment would be easy, did they?

Electric Boogerloo - I Am Fartacus

by Mark Maciejewski

9,38€ + 10% CARD

 Chub and his group of misfit friends—including some new recruits—try to track down the school’s missing mascot in the hilarious and heartwarming sequel to I Am Fartacus. It’s a new year, and a chance for Chub to make a fresh start at Alanmoore Middle School. After all, he now has a "cadre" of misfits behind him, and his feud with Archer "The Arch" Norris seems to have cooled off over the summer. Could seventh grade be the year that Chub keeps his nose out of trouble? One thing Chub didn’t count on? The new principal "Mizzz Lockhart"—a steely-eyed disciplinary maniac with a zero-tolerance policy for mischief who is just waiting to make an example out of Chub. When Lockhart’s precious sculpture—a hideous modern-art rendering of the school mascot that Chub dubbed "The Boogerloo"—disappears, both Chub and Archer are blamed for the theft. Worse still, they’re faced with expulsion (which for Chub means being shipped off to Poland) unless they can produce the Boogerloo in forty-eight hours. It’s up to Chub, Archer, Shelby, Moby, and Megumi (the new student whom both Chub and Archer are crushing on) to find the Boogerloo before Chub gets kicked out of school—and maybe the country—for good.

 Middle school retrieval specialist Jeremy Wilderson must team up with preteen private detective Becca Mills once again to solve his most mind-boggling case yet in this action-packed MAX novel. Ahh, summer vacation! Jeremy Wilderson, Scottsville Middle School’s first (and only) retrieval specialist, is enjoying a slower-than-usual season of retrieving (NOT stealing) lost objects in order to help the under thirteen population of Scottsville. But crime doesn’t take a vacation! And when sabotage strikes Scottsville’s event of the year—the Summer Art Show—threatening to ruin the burgeoning painting career of Jeremy’s best friend, Case, it’s up to Jeremy to figure out what’s going on. Of course, his archrival Becca Mills, who just happens to think Jeremy, Case, and their friend Hack are involved in the crime, is also looking into it. Jeremy has only a few precious hours to stop the sabotage before more contest entries—and kids’ dreams—are slashed and burned. But Jeremy’s specialty is retrieval…not detective work! The only solution is to team up with Becca to solve the case, something Jeremy’s not exactly thrilled to do. Not to mention, he has to keep his alliance with Becca a secret from Case and Hack, who will disown him if they see him working with the enemy. Somewhere between being stuck inside an air vent and slathered in red paint, Jeremy has to wonder: is he in over his head?

Avec Antonin Artaud, il est un des surréalistes dont la vie authentifie l'oeuvre. " Jacques Brenner, Paris-Normandie " Il y a une raison à la redécouverte de Crevel: c'est le malaise contemporain. Certains ont vu en lui une image prémonitoire de Mai 68. Il correspond aux lendemains désenchantés de ce mai-là. " Hubert Juin, Le Monde " La réédition des principaux livres de René Crevel, pour la plupart épuisés depuis longtemps, apparaît comme un acte de justice et de salubrité. De justice, parce qu'il convient de mettre enfin Crevel à sa vraie place, l'une des premières parmi les écrivains surréalistes et parmi les écrivains tout court. De salubrité, parce qu'il suffit d'ouvrir au hasard n'importe lequel de ses livres inclassables pour respirer le grand air de la liberté.

Parler(S) D'Enfance(S) Que Dit Aujourd'Hui La Psychanalyse De L'Enfance ?

19,08€ + 10% CARD

free shipping

 La découverte freudienne a fait historiquement scandale en déconstruisant l'enfance réduite à un paradis d'où tout réel était exclu. On a souvent réduit ce scandale à l'affirmation d'une sexualité infantile dont la psychanalyse, à son orée, a délinéé les enjeux pour chaque sujet. Mais le véritable scandale est ailleurs. Une vérité bien plus intolérable s'y fait jour : la sexualité n'est pas naturelle pour le petit d'homme, pour celui qui parle. Elle dépend d'une machinerie mentale, d'une fiction inconsciente où les signifiants se nouent à des bouts de jouissance irréductibles impliquant le corps. C'est la découverte de la phrase jouie qu'est le fantasme et qui dénaturalise la sexualité (toute sexualité) qui est intolérable - beaucoup plus que les pratiques sexuelles précoces perverses polymorphes. La psychanalyse réarticule l'enfant et l'enfance comme période de la vie dans un discours. L'enfant est un sujet à part entière affronté à un réel - dont les émois sexuels et la rencontre amoureuse sont des formes contingentes. La clinique psychanalytique précisément a pour tache de repérer comment chaque enfant fait réponse à ce réel par un bricolage spécifique hors des modèles formatés où le discours du maître veut avoir le dernier mot. Faut-il encore que sa parole soit entendue et que les effets de jouissance qu'elle entraîne (dans le corps, la pensée) ne soient pas méconnus. A ce point, le psychanalyste, à l'École de Freud et de Lacan, est attendu. A partir de cas cliniques, les auteurs de ce livre font le pari de la cure analytique pour que parler(s) d'enfance(s) ne soit pas une vaine formule.

La Mer

6,57€ + 10% CARD

 Dans le paquet des fois, il était une fois : La Mer commence comme un conte pour enfants, mais n'est pas un livre pour enfants. C'est un livre habité par l'esprit d'enfance. Tina Bueno y entreprend de répondre à la question : Qu'est-ce que la mer ? Au moyen de dessins faussement naïfs, utilisant toutes les ressources du collage et du lettrage, elle illustre différentes hypothèses qui, au terme d'un "suspense graphique", ne trouveront leur élucidation qu'à la dernière page. Le charme si particulier de cet ouvrage tient à un mélange de fraîcheur et de gravité, d'humour et d'émotion, que l'on peut rapprocher du Petit Prince de Saint-Exupéry.
