    As a child, Isaac Mayer Wise loved to study. Words were like magic keys that could unlock new worlds. He had big ideas and big dreams. Becoming a rabbi, he thought some long-held traditions needed changing, but some of his ideas were unpopular with European Jews. He decided to go to America, where he had heard Jews were more open to new ideas – and they were. He started a Jewish newspaper to share his new ideas and built a synagogue across the street from Cincinnati’s City Hall, inspiring a new kind of Judaism.

    This richly imagined, funny novel from Australian author Flip Como will delight middle grade readers who enjoy mysteries, horses, and fantasy.  
Humpty Doo… the enchanted city on rails where Nature has the upper hand and nothing stands still, not even the buildings. A place where toys are part of the population, storytellers can be summoned to amuse you, and flying jelly babies guide you through the ever-changing streets. 
When the heart of the city, the Imperial Carousel, is damaged, Humpty Doo grinds to a halt and Nature starts to take over. Can Jinx and her new Humpty Dooish friends restore the Carousel before the bush rises up and consumes them? 
A Carpathian, a mythical ghost-like horse that runs at 200 km per hour, could be the key to Humpty Doo’s salvation. But how can the children find something thought to be extinct?
