Summary

In "More Mittens; with The Doll's Wedding and Other Stories," Aunt Fanny presents a delightful tapestry of narratives that resonate with charm and moral undertones commonly found in children's literature of the early 20th century. The book is marked by a playful yet didactic prose style, skillfully weaving together various whimsical tales that engage the imagination while instilling fundamental values such as friendship and kindness. This compilation not only serves to entertain young readers but also invites them to revel in the enchantment of storytelling, reminiscent of the works of contemporaries like Frances Hodgson Burnett and L. Frank Baum, who similarly nurtured a sense of wonder in their audience. Aunt Fanny, an esteemed author of children's literature, captures the spirit of her time through her nuanced understanding of child psychology and developmental needs. Her experiences as a caregiver and her keen observations of childhood behaviors deeply influenced her narratives, imbuing them with authenticity and relatability. By drawing from her own childhood memories and social context, she crafts a world where children can navigate their curiosity and emotional experiences safely. "More Mittens" is a treasure trove for both young readers and adults seeking to reconnect with the innocence of childhood. It is highly recommended for parents looking to instill positive values in their children and for educators seeking enchanting stories that promote discussion on essential life lessons.

    A harrowing, pulse-pounding race for survival that New York Times bestselling author D. J. MacHale says “will leave you breathless.” 
    Michael Prasad knows he shouldn’t go out on the Mars surface alone. It’s dangerous. His parents have forbidden it. And the anxiety he feels almost every time he puts on a spacesuit makes it nearly impossible for him to leave the safety of the colony. 
    But when his best friend, Lilith, suggests they sneak out one night, he can’t resist the chance to prove everyone—including himself—wrong.  
    As the two ride along the Mars surface in a stolen rover, miles from the colony, a massive solar flare hits the planet, knocking out power, communication, and navigation systems, and the magnetic field that protects the planet from the sun’s deadly radiation.  
    Stranded hours from home with an already limited supply of food, water, and air, Michael and Lilith must risk everything if they’re to get back to the colony alive.

    With help from his grandma, Josh finds a way to quieten his overactive ‘Brian’ in this gently humorous and empathetic tale about family and mental health by bestseller Helen Rutter. 
    Josh has always called his brain Brian, and Brian can sometimes be his best friend, helping Josh with tests and giving him brilliant moneymaking ideas. But he can also be Josh’s worst enemy, keeping him awake at night worrying, and telling him that his family’s problems are all Josh’s fault. 
    When the arguments at home get really bad, Josh is sent to live with his grandma, who lives in a weird shack in the middle of nowhere. At first Brian’s voice gets louder and louder, and Josh feels out of control. But as he helps his grandma in the garden, growing their own food, and with all the jobs that need to be done around the shack, Josh starts to realise that she understands him and Brian better than anyone. 
    In this multigenerational tale, Josh's reluctant journey from a troubled teen to a young adult is beautifully captured. His daily struggles with mental health, emotions, and social themes are humorously portrayed, making it a compelling read for kids and teenage readers alike. 
    For fans of Marcus Emerson (Kid Youtuber 9), Katherine Rundell (The Explorer), T.Z. Layton (The Academy), Lisa Yee (DC Super Hero Girls), and Allan Woodrow (The Battle of the Werepenguins).
