    The Fourth of July is no day for danger but that’s just what’s in store for the Bean Farm gang in Freddy and the Perilous Adventure. It all seemed so strange and exciting at first: Emma and Alice, Bean Farm’s favorite ducks, and the intrepid Freddy, off for a glorious balloon ride to celebrate the nation’s birthday. Of course, if Freddy and Emma and Alice and the other denizens of Bean Farm had known what was really in store for the brave aerialists in the Balloon Ascension they might just have remained quietly at home, listening to Freddy’s poetry or to the boastful crowing of Charles.

    Twelve-year-old Cassie has a lot to cope with when her father moves "out of the picture." Her mom's constantly working overtime, her teenage sister's going AWOL, and her little brother seriously needs attention. It's up to Cassie to prevent total chaos at home -- or so she thinks.  She can't control everything, though. At school Cassie's two "best" friends are turning nasty, and a cute boy is sending mixed signals. And then there's Mr. Mullaney -- the weirdest, hardest English teacher in the seventh grade -- who hates everything she does. Since Mr. Mullaney isn't even reading her brilliant work, Cassie starts submitting journal entries like "A Virtual Tour of My Insanely Messy Desk." But her sassy humor isn't winning her any friends or helping her ailing grades. What's a girl to do when life gets totally insane?  Barbara Dee has created a witty, poignant portrait of an intense, honest, feisty girl who is ferociously funny and only too human.

    Little Bo-Peep has lost her sheep, 
    And can't tell where to find them; 
    Leave them alone, and they'll come home, 
    Bringing their tails behind them. 
    Little Bo-Peep fell fast asleep, 
    And dreamt she heard them bleating; 
    But when she awoke, she found it a joke, 
    For they were still all fleeting. 
     This beloved nursery rhyme tells a story that is both a bit scary (she lost her sheep!) and funny (they lost their tails!). The poor tiny girl, trying to do a job that is quite hard for her with her short legs, becomes bewildered. But help is there in the shape of an old lady who first plays a trick on her, telling her that her sheep have lost their tails and she must find them and somehow put them back on. The distraught little BoPeep searches everywhere and when she finally does find the missing tails discovers the joke. But all ends well when the old woman tells her she doesn't need to sew them on because they didn't have any tails to begin with. Everyone has a good laugh and BoPeep lovingly hugs each sheep as they 'come home, wagging their tails behind them.'

    The “irresistible” orphan takes on a billionaire hypnotist with a sinister plan—and attends the Academy Awards—in the New York Times—​bestselling series! (Booklist)   Along with Rocky and Petula the pug, Molly is tracking the sinister activities of American businessman Primo Cell, who wants to become president and take over the world. He has all the Hollywood celebrities in his power, but Molly Moon has an amazing power of her own, which even she doesn’t know about. . . .   “Molly is irresistible: a skinny, eleven-year-old mastermind with wild hair, who eats ketchup sandwiches, defeats seemingly invincible adults with her amazing abilities, yet yearns for a family. Plot twists abound, characters aren’t who they seem to be, and danger escalates at a breakneck pace. The action is nonstop, but kids who need to care about characters will find this to be more than just roaring good sf; it’s a feel-good story that will leave them hungry for more about a winning kid who learns to be comfortable in her own skin.” —Booklist   “[A] page-turner.” —Kirkus Reviews
