Summary

Step back in time to the late 1800s, where the mystical lands of Dartmoor serve as the backdrop for a tale of magic, mischief, and democracy. Meet Snuffle Weed, a cantankerous goblin with a greedy thirst for water that knows no bounds, much to the chagrin of the local water sprites. Enter the Loving family, residents of the grand Manor, who decide it's high time for a little diplomacy. Together with the sprites, they establish a council aimed at resolving their water woes in a fair and democratic manner. But the road to diplomacy isn't smooth. Before the council can successfully convene, they must first navigate a series of confrontations that pit the forces of nature against each other in spectacular fashion. Journey through a world where the elements themselves take sides, and discover how even the most unlikely characters can find a way to come together for the greater good. It's a tale of family, friendship, and the indomitable spirit of community set against the enchanting backdrop of 19th-century Dartmoor.

    When Kristen Balouch was ten years old, her parents made a surprising announcement: their whole family was going on a trip to plant trees! Kristen, her sisters, and her mom and dad—and their pet, Wonder Dog—flew from their California home to a logging site in British Columbia. There, they joined a crew working to replant the trees that had been cut down. In this story, Kristen reflects on the forty days they spent living in a tent, covered in mud and bug bites, working hard every day to plant a new forest. Young listeners will learn a little French, practice some math skills, and learn all about how to plant a tree the right way! This engaging, kid-friendly story ends with a modern-day look at what Kristen's family helped accomplish: a stand of huge trees growing on what used to be an empty, muddy patch of bare stumps. An author's note shares more information about deforestation, sustainable logging practices, and the irreplaceable environmental benefit of old growth forests—plus the amazing things even a small group of people can do when they work together. A fun story with an important environmental message, this story is bound to inspire kids to get their hands dirty to make our planet healthy!

    When her widower father inherits a castlelike estate in the mountains of West Virginia, twelve-year-old Jen is thrilled. It seems like a wish come true. But she quickly realizes that not all change is positive. Her dad has a mysterious new girlfriend, Moura, who slowly drives a wedge between Jen and her father. Furthermore, Moura has an unusually strong—almost obsessive—interest in the antiques that fill the mansion, especially a beautiful glass globe that Jen finds hanging in a window. When Jen's cat accidentally breaks the globe, which Moura calls a "witch catcher," strange things begin to happen . . . 
     
     
     
    An odd-looking girl wearing a torn dress appears, seemingly out of nowhere, and Moura's behavior becomes more sinister, leading Jen to believe that her father is a pawn in an evil scheme. Soon Jen finds herself caught in the midst of a supernatural war, with the fate of an enchanted race—and her family—at stake. 
     
     
     
    Inspired by the age-old legend of witch catchers, Mary Downing Hahn brings a magical cast of characters to life in this compelling fantasy adventure.
