The Song of the Swan

"A magical retelling of Swan Lake, featuring a clever orphan, a castle filled with enchanted swans, and a quest to unearth the secrets of the past. Olga is an orphan and a thief, relying on trickery and sleight of hand to make her way in the world. But it's magic, not thievery, that could get her into trouble. When Olga and her partner-in-crime Pavel learn of a valuable jewel kept in a secluded castle, Olga sees an opportunity to change their lives: a prize so big, they'd never have to steal again. But the castle is not as it seems, ruled by an enchanter who hosts grand balls every night, only for the guests to disappear each morning, replaced by swans. Guided by cryptic clues from the palace spiders, Olga soon realizes she's in over her head-torn between a bargain with the enchanter, loyalty to Pavel, and determination to understand how the enchanted swans are linked to her own fate. One thing is certain: there is dark magic behind the castle's mysteries, and Olga will stop at nothing to unmask it."

"The Archibald Finch saga continues with another thrilling adventure! It's been months since our hero returned from Lemurea, but nothing is back to normal. When Archibald realizes he isn't the only thing that crash-landed at the manor that night, he knows he'll need to return to the dark world he only just left. Archibald is a changed boy. He stands up to bullies and hangs out with the gargoyles that used to scare him. But for all his new toughness, he's also a lost boy who misses his friends in Lemurea. When strange footprints are discovered on the manor grounds, he realizes a piece of that world has followed him home... Without golems, witches or magic, Archibald knows there's little to stop what's prowling the London suburbs, which means he'll have to return to Lemurea to seek Faerydae's help. In a new adventure for Archibald, Hailee, Oliver, and Faerydae, two worlds collide-two worlds with more in common than any of the kids could've imagined. A hunt for clues, golems, and Marodors unearths some shocking answers and hard truths as Archibald and his companions embark on yet another daring journey that tests each of them in different ways.

It turns out the moose has a dream bigger then just being a moose--he wants to be an astronaut and go to the moon. His forest friends step in to help him, and action ensues. Lots of action. Like a lacrosse-playing grandma, a gigantic slingshot into space, and a flying, superhero chipmunk. In this hilarious romp, Richard T. Morris and bestselling illustrator Tom Lichtenheld remind us to dream big and, when we do, to aim for the moon."

In this silly what-if story, kids will roar with laughter at the misadventures of a monkey dad, an alligator dad, a whale dad, and even a unicorn dad!

Spectre at the Feast: Ghost Stories at Christmastide: Volume One

"“Whenever five or six English-speaking people meet round a fire on Christmas Eve, they start telling each other ghost stories.” —Jerome K. Jerome With the unforgettable opening words “Marley was dead, to begin with…” Charles Dickens kindled not just the modern celebration of the Yuletide but also rekindled the tradition of gathering ‘round the fire on Christmas Eve to tell ghost stories. Here are a few of my favorites—some light, some somber, some extra-scary, beginning with a solo adaptation of A Christmas Carol. At age eleven I was introduced to Ebeneezer Scrooge and theatre-going in one magical night, when a production of the Dickens classic at the Children’s Theatre Company in Minneapolis positively floored me. I’ve never spent another Christmastide without reading, watching, and/or appearing in this marvelous story. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I had reading these wondrous tales!"

But even this multi-tentacled, yellow-spotted, one-eyed monster's cautionary tales about the consequences of mischief-making can't seem to change the students' wicked ways until he reveals the spookiest and most surprising story of all: his own.
