March's roundup of New in Paperback titles includes the National Book Award-winning THE PENDERWICKS, Jeanne Birdsall's debut novel, in which the Penderwick sisters share a memorable summer with a local boy while vacationing with their widowed father, much to the dismay of his snobbish mother; STARLIGHT, the fourth installment in Erin Hunter's feline fantasy series, Warriors: The New Prophecy; REPLAY, a funny, poignant story of self-discovery, beautifully told by Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creech; and HEAT by Mike Lupica, whose main character, a 12-year-old boy, dreams of pitching in the Little League World Series.
