Summary

'Cat didn't notice a shadow slinking into the room and leaning in closer … as if it were listening.'
When Cat finds out that her cool new neighbour, Dr Becca Ryan, is a witch, she's fascinated. Cat already loves magic – she has The Sight – and she's sure she can learn loads from Becca.
But Cat has other things on her mind – her mum has a boyfriend and Cat's not happy. When she turns to Becca for advice, she gets more than she bargained for. Cat and her friend Shane are sent off on a perilous quest for an ancient harp that, when played, can influence the thoughts of anyone who hears it – and it seems like Cat will go to any lengths to find it …
As they face shape-shifting wolves, demons and magic on the island of Hy-Brasil, Cat and Shane learn many things about themselves – and prepare to battle an ancient and terrifying power …

    Listeners will be intrigued and inspired by these true stories of 20th Century Americans whose gifts transformed the world. Journalists, musicians, scientists, poets, a computer genius, and a president – all of them struggled and went on to great achievements. Now Jim Weiss brings you their stories.  Nellie Bly, the pioneering woman journalist whose breathtaking adventures literally took her around the world. Navy Admiral Grace Hopper, the quotable computer genius who led the way into the age of high technology. George Gershwin, who composed musical masterpieces, and his lyricist friend, E.Y. Harburg (The Wizard of Oz and more). Langston Hughes, whose belief in possibilities drove him to overcome racism and write immortal poetry. Charles Steinmetz, the scientific genius with a giant heart lodged in a body four feed tall. Harry Truman, whose boyhood readings in history later guided his own history-making decisions as President of the United States.  These stories will have you shaking your head in wonder at the vast (and vastly entertaining) variety of ways in which humans can strive for greatness.

    When you secretly adopt a (very) pregnant cat, things get messy fast. 
It’s her dream come true: Martha’s cousins are about to come for a six-week summer visit. But instead of hustling to meet her parents and head to the airport to pick them up, she finds herself rescuing a pregnant cat from a garage sale free box. 
Things get messy when her parents find out and, even worse, when the cat runs away before giving birth to the kittens. And her cousins Sanjay and Anand face troubles of their own. Anand must get strong enough to conquer the Tarzan rope that looms across the neighborhood swimming pool. Sanjay has a big secret stashed in Martha’s attic.   
Can they all work together to find Martha’s cat and newborn kittens? Or, will the urban coyotes get them first? 
The Cat, the Cash, the Leap, and the List is a new take on the classic summer adventure story for middle grade kids. If you like books with humor, heart, and action like The Penderwicks, let Sue Campbell take you on a delightful romp through Portland in the summertime. 
Buy The Cat, the Cash, the Leap, and the List today to start the adventure.
