What was Captain doing in Dragon' s sandbox? He was moping. Because he' d lost his ship. " Oh, no! I' ll help you find it! Come on!" Dragon said. " Where are we going?" Captain asked. " To my cave! I know I have a map there somewhere." Armed with a (toy watch) compass, a (paper towel tube) telescope, and a (handdrawn) map, Dragon and Captain set off on a great adventure. Dragon is a boy who always wears his dragon robe. And Captain is a boy with a three-sided hat. But as the boys' imaginations take over, we see them as they see themselves, and the backyard as the boys see it: a dark forest, a craggy cliff, and the immense sea. Illustrated like a comic book, this book is a fantasy-filled graphic novel for the picture book set. Can Dragon and Captain find the lost ship… before lunch?Ver livro
THE GIRL BROWNIES – ASHDOWN FOREST, ENGLAND 1919 Book 5 of 6 The Ashdown Forest Festival The summary of this fifth book in the series is as follows: The Girl Brownies prepare to perform their lantern adventure at Ashdown's first post-war Peace Festival. When their prized replica lantern disappears hours before the show, they spring into action - following muddy footprints (child-sized!), interrogating the village prankster, and ultimately discovering the lantern was mistakenly taken by historian Mr. Finch for his exhibit. After retrieving it, their performance becomes the festival highlight, blending storytelling with their real-life mystery-solving. The adventure continues when Mr. Finch invites them to examine his museum's authentic lantern collection, hinting at future discoveries. Through the festival's celebrations, the girls witness their community healing from war while cementing their reputation as Ashdown's cleverest young detectives. The initial opening credit music, “Joyful Journey”, which does run to approximately 2 minutes sets the scene, so to speak, recorder, tambourine,guitar and accordion in a folk/classical and cheerful mood. The closing music, “Bloom”, ends the tale on with more of the same at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments etc. but more of an ending feel. The story and music itself runs to just about 14 minutes and is narrated in my wife's voice, Claire, who actually was a ranger guide! I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come Christopher Allen - At your serviceVer livro

A friendless, misfit boy unwittingly becomes a wizard and ends up having to save the town he is desperately trying to escape. Readers' Favorite Gold Medal, Benjamin Franklin Gold Medal, Booklife Editor's Pick, IR Approved, Kirkus: Get It "I'm a Harry Potter fanatic. This was a wonderful book! Fell in love with the characters...I laughed and cried. I was hooked." -Amazon Review All Goff wanted was for his essay on witchcraft to be good enough to win a scholarship to a private academy far away from Spraksville, the miserable, spooky little town he is stuck in. But, if he’d known that Spraksville’s history of witchcraft was more than just folklore, he never would have experimented with casting a spell in the cemetery at midnight as research to make the essay great. He ends up transformed into a wizard and becomes the mortal enemy of the most powerful dark wizard in centuries. Now it's up to Goff to stop him from performing an ancient ritual that will destroy the town and make this Halloween night the last night of freedom the world ever knows. Written for young readers of all ages, Misfit's Magic is a spooky, action-packed, feel-good book that children, adults, and entire families enjoy any time of year as a "...a gorgeous treat to fans of urban fantasy." - The Book Commentary. “...you won’t put this book down...” A. Reynolds, Readers' Favorite “Epic. Two thumbs way up...this is one of the best books I have read all year…I would recommend this book to both adults and children alike…” Award-winning author M. A. Hernandez Jr. "…will delight fans of Harry Potter and Septimus Heap.” K. Zimmerman, Readers' FavoriteVer livro
