The Boy Behind The Door is a story about my life and my father's life, and how the two have intertwined and influenced one another. My father is a Navajo Native American, who was adopted by a white family, and was not told he was Native American or adopted until he was 18 years old. He had an identity crisis when this happened, and his life became a whirlwind. This fact affected every life decision he made after he found out, thus, affecting my life too. This story really began almost four years ago when I started researching why my family does not have tribal IDs, and I uncovered more than that, and began uncovering an entire family tree.

Told with humor and heart, The Boy at the Back of the Class offers a child's perspective on the refugee crisis, highlighting the importance of friendship and kindness in a world that doesn't always make sense. There used to be an empty chair at the back of Mrs. Khan's classroom, but on the third Tuesday of the school year a new kid fills it: nine-year-old Ahmet, a Syrian refugee. The whole class is curious about this new boy--he doesn't seem to smile, and he doesn't talk much. But after learning that Ahmet fled a Very Real War and was separated from his family along the way, a determined group of his classmates bands together to concoct the Greatest Idea in the World--a magnificent plan to reunite Ahmet with his loved ones. This accessible, kid-friendly story about the refugee crisis highlights the community-changing potential of standing as an ally and reminds readers that everyone deserves a place to call home.

In August 1982, 12-year-old David, dressed in an anorak and a woolly coat, was found in a public garden in Paris. Taken to the police station, he told a story that at first no one could believe. He had just spent eight years of his life imprisoned by his mother, first chained to a pipe in the bathroom, then locked for the last year in a wardrobe, fed only on scraps. His mother had subjected him to a regime of the most horrific punishments. He was constantly beaten or burned with cigarettes for speaking out of turn, eating too slowly or playing quietly. At his mother's trial David said nothing, still trying to understand her reasons, still desperately hoping for her love. Now 22, with the support of his counsellor, Evangeline de Schonen, David tells his heart-rending story honestly and without bitterness. It is an extraordinary account - utterly compelling, yet at times almost impossible to bear - a portrayal of both the extremes of human cruelty and the capacity of the human spirit to forgive and survive.

Beyond the Black Door is a young adult dark fantasy about unlocking the mysteries around and within us—no matter the cost... Everyone has a soul. Some are beautiful gardens, others are frightening dungeons. Soulwalkers—like Kamai and her mother—can journey into other people's souls while they sleep. But no matter where Kamai visits, she sees the black door. It follows her into every soul, and her mother has told her to never, ever open it. When Kamai touches the door, it is warm and beating, like it has a pulse. When she puts her ear to it, she hears her own name whispered from the other side. And when tragedy strikes, Kamai does the unthinkable: she opens the door. A.M. Strickland's imaginative dark fantasy features court intrigue and romance, a main character coming to terms with her asexuality, and twists and turns as a seductive mystery unfolds that endangers not just Kamai's own soul, but the entire kingdom ... An Imprint Book “I couldn’t put down this deliciously dark dream of a fantasy.” —New York Times bestselling author Lisa Maxwell “A dark delight, gorgeously written and as twisty and enigmatic as a labyrinth at twilight. I wanted to stay lost in its pages forever, wandering ever deeper into the maze of Strickland’s beguiling, intricately imagined world.” —Margaret Rogerson, New York Times bestselling author of An Enchantment of Ravens
