January’s roundup of New in Paperback titles includes SAVING THE WORLD AND OTHER EXTREME SPORTS, the closing chapter of James Patterson's thrilling Maximum Ride trilogy; SMALL STEPS, Louis Sachar's follow-up to his 1998 bestseller HOLES, in which Theodore Johnson (aka Armpit) tries to turn his life around following his release from Camp Green Lake; GOSSAMER, a contemporary fantasy from two-time Newbery winner Lois Lowry that examines where our dreams and nightmares come from; GOOD GIRLS, a novel by Laura Ruby whose characters explore why some girls are "good" and others are "bad" in the eyes of their peers, teachers and even their families; and Sharon Draper’s COPPER SUN, a work of historical fiction that brings the brutality and horror of slavery to life through the story of one child’s strength and courage --- and hope in the face of seemingly insurmountable adversity.
