With the help of the immortals, the monkey managed to escape and procure the demons' treasures, the red gourd and the jade bottle. The monkey sucked Silver Horn into the gourd and had a fierce fight with Golden Horn. Finally, the monkey won and imprisoned the demon in the jade bottle. It turned out that the demons were the Taoist Master's servants. The Taoist Master came and took them back.

  Would his father ever come home? 
  The true story of an entire childhood lived under the shadow of war. 
  Born in 1933, Nick Hutchins was just six years old when his father left for the Second World War. 
  By the time the war ended, he was twelve years old and almost a man. 
  At 90 years of age, Nick remembers his wartime childhood in vivid detail, like it was yesterday, and reflects on the impact of growing up without his father. 
  Lieutenant Colonel CDM Hutchins, known as Tim, served in the British Army with the 51st Highland Division in France. Left behind during the evacuation of Dunkirk, he was captured and became a prisoner-of-war in Germany. Now for the first time we can hear his voice through gripping, first-hand excerpts from his POW journal. 
  Bursting with action, adventure, fear and laughter, When I Was Twelve is a story of hanging onto hope in dark times. 
  ‘When I Was Twelve is a truly immersive listen, told through rich voices. The tales of such challenging times bring home how resilient the human spirit can be. Simply beautiful.’ - Simon Kennedy, comedian and author of 9/11 and the Art of Happiness 
  ‘A story of longing and hope in a time of war, rich with details to captivate a child.’ - Debra Tidball, award-winning children’s author of Anchored and The Scared Book. 
  ‘Adults and children alike will gain so much from this moving story of a little boy called on to become the ‘man of the house’ while his father fights on the frontlines. When I Was Twelve will help those of us who’ve never seen war to develop the quality the war generations had—resilience. - Sheridan Voysey, author of Resilient and The Making of Us.

  From the author of Cog and Voyage of the Dogs, Weird Kid is a hilarious and heartfelt homage to everyone who feels like they don’t belong. Perfect for fans of Gordon Korman and Stuart Gibbs.  
  Jake Wind is trying to stay under the radar. Whose radar? Anyone who might be too interested in the fact that he has shapeshifting abilities he can’t control. Or that his parents found him as a ball of goo when he was a baby. 
  Keeping his powers in check is crucial, though, if he wants to live a normal life and go to middle school instead of being homeschooled (and if he wants to avoid being kidnapped and experimented on, of course). 
  Things feel like they’re going his way when he survives his first day of school without transforming and makes a new friend. But when mysterious sinkholes start popping up around town—sinkholes filled with the same extraterrestrial substance as Jake—and his neighbors, classmates, and even his family start acting a little, well, weird, Jake will have to learn to use his powers in order to save his town.  
  ""The short page count, humor, and action make this a good choice for reluctant readers. A solid purchase for school and public libraries."" —School Library Journal
