Violet Willoughby doesn't believe in ghosts, especially since her mother has worked as a fraudulent medium for a decade. Violet has taken part in enough of her mother's tricks to feel more than a little jaded about anyhting supernatural. 
 
The ghosts, however, believe in Violet and she's been seeing them everywhere. One ghost in particular needs Violet to use her emerging gift to solve her murder . . . and prevent the ghost's twin sister from suffering the same fate.

    In the final novel of the acclaimed Wolfe Brothers Trilogy, Cameron Wolfe goes looking for love as he attempts to escape his brother’s shadow. 
 
Cameron Wolfe is a loser. He knows it. He’s the quiet one, not a soccer star like his brother Steve or a charming fighter with a new girl every week like his brother Rube. Cam would give anything to be near one of those girls, to love her and treat her right. He especially likes Rube’s latest, Octavia, with her brilliant ideas and bright green eyes. But what woman like that would want a loser like him? Maybe Octavia would, Cam discovers. Maybe he has talents and passions just waiting to be discovered. And those maybes are about to change everything: winning, loving, losing, the Wolfe brothers, and Cameron himself.

Praise for Sleeping Beauty 
 
“So perfect are the Pre-Raphaelite details and gestures that it’s easy to imagine Kinuko Craft’s . . . paintings hanging in a gallery. Her husband Mahlon Craft’s enhanced version of Sleeping Beauty affords wide scope for the artist’s romanticism. . . . Families aiming to assemble a library of classic fairy tales may well settle on this as the definitive Sleeping Beauty.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review 
 
“Through this sumptuous presentation, Princess Aurora joins that elite group of personages whose stories are ornamented by Craft’s lush illustrative style. . . . The phrasing and vocabulary are appropriately formal and the pacing is dramatic, with pivotal moments commanding full-page spreads. A thoroughly enchanting and luxurious addition for any fairy-tale collection.” —School Library Journal

    Two best friends discover the joy of meeting someone new in the second book in this classic children’s series set in 1910 Minnesota. 
 
Betsy and Tacy are best friends. Then Tib moves into the neighborhood and the three of them start to play together. The grown-ups think they will quarrel, but they don’t. Sometimes they quarrel with Betsy’s and Tacy’s bossy big sisters, but they never quarrel among themselves. 
 
They are not as good as they might be. They cook up awful messes in the kitchen, throw mud on each other and pretend to be beggars, and cut off each other’s hair. But Betsy, Tacy, and Tib always manage to have a good time. 
 
Ever since their first publication in the 1940s, the Betsy-Tacy stories have been loved by each generation of young readers.
