  Milo Bloom, chess prodigy, has a secret: he doesn’t want to play chess anymore.  
   
  If only he had the courage to tell someone. Instead, he blows a major tournament on purpose. The problem is, winning that tournament was a ticket to chess camp, and now his summer plans are shot. 
   
  Enter Roxie, a girl he’s never met, who shows up at his door to tell him that he and his mom will be spending the summer in her “cat room” … what? 
   
  Before Milo knows what’s hit him, he’s living at Roxie’s house, where creepy cats rule, meat products are banned, and Roxie won’t give him a second alone. But when Milo and Roxie stumble across two people playing a mysterious game, they become determined to learn  
  the ancient game of Go. Between late-night library adventures and creating a Go club at their camp, Milo and Roxie form an unexpected friendship. But none of that matters if Milo can’t face his fears and tell his mom how he really feels. 
   
  From the author of The Doughnut Fix comes another funny, heartfelt book about overcoming the fear of letting down the people you love and the amazing things that can come from a summer of nothing going your way.

  It’s been three years since Abuela’s last visit, and Dulce revels in every tiny detail—from Abuela’s maletas full of candies in crinkly wrappers and gifts from primos to the sweet, earthy smell of Peru that floats out of Abuela’s room and down the hall. But Abuela’s visit can’t last forever, and all too soon she’s packing her suitcases again. Then Dulce has an idea: maybe there are things she can gather for her cousins and send with Abuela to remind them of the U.S. relatives they’ve never met. And despite having to say goodbye, Abuela has one more surprise for Dulce—something to help her remember that home isn’t just a place but a deep-rooted love they share no matter the distance.

  Welcome dear Listener! We are glad to have you join us for Root & Twig Sounds classic novel experience of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, told with the power of a soundscape audiobook production. 
  Experience the wonder of the classic tales of Mowgli, the boy raised by wolves in the jungles of India, as well as the unforgettable characters of Shere-Khan, Baloo, Bagheera and Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. The Jungle Book was written by Rudyard Kipling as an anthology of seven stories featuring a variety of animals and their relationship to mankind. Originally published in 1894, it is our distinct pleasure to present to you a new way to experience the story - a 'soundscape audiobook'. A word-for-word production, this is not merely an ‘adaptation’ or ‘radio drama'. This is a way to experience the story as if you are within the very pages of the tale.
