  A rabbit warrior and his squirrel nephew leave their Irish homeland to embark on an epic journey to Scotland in this novel of heroic adventure. 
   
  Filled with swashbuckling action, pirates, and high seas battles, this fanciful tale is set against the historic backdrop of sixteenth-century Ireland, Scotland, and England, where the English are foxes, wolves, and hawks, and the Irish and Scots are rabbits, squirrels, badgers, and bears. 
   
  “Buckle your swash and prepare to have your timbers shivered, that’s Tam O’Hare on the horizon. Whether Tam is hauling up the mainsail or scaling the castle wall, Scotty Roberts paints the reader right into the middle of every adventure.” —Ian Punnett, radio talk show host, Coast to Coast AM 
   
  “Not only is Tam O’Hare a rollicking good adventure full of fantastic characters and twists and turns that will keep kids and adults alike riveted, but Scotty’s art in beautiful eye-popping color is truly magical and brings the story fully to life! This belongs in every family’s library to read over and over again!” —Dan Madsen, founder of official Star Wars and Star Trek fan clubs 
   
  “Tam O’Hare left my kids and I breathless and decidedly more Scottish. A rollicking tale fit for anyone brave enough to venture into it!”—Grant Wilson of Syfy Channel’s Ghost Hunters

  In this “exciting, unpredictable and unsettling” sci-fi thriller, students struggle to survive a virus that turns humans into murderous machines (Publishers Weekly). 
   
  Paul is the new kid at Mortingham Boarding Academy, and he has a dark secret. Caitlyn admires Paul from afar and resents that he only has eyes for Erika. Erika thinks that she and Caitlyn are best friends, but she’s wrong. Adam is a bully with a major chip on his shoulder. Mark is outgrowing his old friends but doesn’t know how to make new ones. 
   
  In a few short hours, none of this will matter. Without warning, a horrifying infection will spread across the school grounds, and a group of students with little in common will find themselves barricaded in a classroom, fighting for their lives. Some will live. Some will die. And then it will get even worse. 
   
  Fast-paced and frightening, Silver is a tale set on the fringes of science and horror—a story about the struggle to survive in the face of impossible odds. 
   
  “Wooding has morphed a traditional English boarding-school story into a horror survival story that would make William Golding and Gary Paulsen envious.” —Booklist 
   
  “All kinds of white-knuckle fun.” —Kirkus Reviews

  The official novelization of the major stop-motion children's movie! 
  Based on the hotly anticipated new stop-motion feature film Early Man, from director Nick Park (Shaun the Sheep, Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run) and Aardman Animation, coming to U.S. theaters this February.  
  Meet Dug, a scrawny but cheerful caveman who loves his valley and just wants the best for his tribe of misfits. Accompanied by his faithful pig sidekick Hognob, Dug is a dreamer—why settle for hunting rabbits when you can hunt a mammoth?! Then there's Dug's tribe, led by the cautious Chief Bobnar. Bobnar wants the best for the tribe, too, but he sees things a little differently from Dug. 
  Then Dug meets the evil Lord Nooth. He's the leader of the Bronze Age City. When the Bronze Age City invades the valley and the cavemen have to fight to save their home, Dug strikes a deal with Lord Nooth. The tribe can keep their valley if they beat the Bronze Agers at their own game: soccer!  
  Can Dug and Hognob really unite a motley tribe of rabbit-hunters into a serious team? It's the Stone Age versus the Bronze Age in the match of the millennium! 
  Easy to read and side-splittingly funny, this story about cavemen with heart will appeal to young readers and their parents.
