Amber and Clay by Laura Amy Schlitz

Welcome to ancient Greece as only Newbery Medal-winning storyteller Laura Amy Schlitz can conjure it. Bound by destiny, Thracian slave Melisto and spoiled aristocrat Rhaskos—Amber and Clay—never meet in the flesh. By the time they do, one of them is a ghost. But the thin line between life and death is just one boundary their unlikely friendship crosses.

Blending verse, prose, and illustrated archaeological “artifacts,” Amber and Clay is a tale that vividly transcends time, an indelible reminder of the power of language to illuminate the over- and underworlds of human history.
