    Inside the Comet by Arthur C. Clarke - When George was given the chance to board the Challenger and chase after the most spectacular sight ever to appear in the heavens he could hardly believe his luck, but be careful what you wish for. 
“I don't know why I'm recording this,” said George Takeo Pickett slowly into the hovering microphone. “There's no chance that anyone will ever hear it. They say the comet will bring us back to the neighborhood of Earth in about two million years, when it makes its next turn around the Sun. I wonder if mankind will still be in existence then, and whether the comet will put on as good a display for our descendants as it did for us? Maybe they'll launch an expedition, just as we have done, to see what they can find. And they'll find us...

    Do you know what an endangered species is and why animals become endangered?

Who Will Roar if I Go? will introduce you to 13 animals around the world who have one thing in common: they need your help. With rhyming verse, each animal is sharing a message with you that you will remember for a long time.

The King of the Beasts - that's my claim to fame.

I've got a big crown of hair that's called a mane.

You will meet many animals in Africa: the lion, rhinoceros, and gorilla all have something to tell you.

With black-patchy eyes, I'm chubby and cute.

I'm a lazy bear who chews bamboo shoots.

Next visit snow leopard, elephant, and tiger in Asia, quetzal in South America, panda and salamander in China, red-crowned amazon and blue karner butterflies in North America, and the pangolin in Australia. Their message is simple, but very important for you, the stewards of the earth:

We need you to care and let us live free.

Or there will be no more wild animals to see.

Who Will Roar If I Go? will introduce the basics of endangered species to young children and open up conversations of what we can all do to help.

Will you roar before they go?

    A lot of questions ran through my head as I desperately clung to the roof of a magic train crossing over a gaping canyon. Like: How did I get here? What could I have done to avoid this fate? And, did I remember to shave my underarms before coming on this quest?But even after taking on a witch in a gingerbread house, bloodthirsty actors, and a whole mess of magic hunters and other fairytale shenanigans, the biggest, most pressing question pulsing through my brain as my fingers started to slip and my enemy bore down on me was this:Could I really trust the person whose life I’d ruined to keep me from falling?With antagonists closing in, inner demons threatening to consume me, and vivid nightmares chewing up my soul every time I shut my eyes, I was running out of options.I knew the moment to decide whether or not I could truly trust any of my friends was fast approaching. But my head and heart were stuck. For just like the precarious position I now found myself in, the pain of holding onto the path I’d chosen thus far was outmatched only by the worry I had over (gulp) letting it go . . .READERS LOVE CRISANTA KNIGHT:“If you like reading books full of action, magic and a strong heroine, this is the one for you.” - Crazy Cat Books"Trust, self-discovery and friendship were definitely the defining factors of this novel, with a great emphasis on trust.” The Unicorn Reader“I love this story; it brings out the inner princess in me.” One More Chapter Blog“The worldbuilding continues to be amazing.” – Pages Full of StarsTHE CRISANTA KNIGHT SERIES:Book 1 - Protagonist BoundBook 2 - The Severance GameBook 3 - Inherent FateBook 4 - The Liar, The Witch, & The WormholeBook 5 - To Death & BackBook 6 - The Lost KingBook 7 - Into The GrayBook 8 - Midnight LawBook 9 - Eternity's End

    When a celebrity chef’s new restaurant threatens Mila’s family’s food truck, she plans to expose them for the recipe thieves they are—even if that means dabbling in the Filipino folk magic she’s tried to avoid. Fans of Tae Keller and Lily LaMotte will cheer for this charming story about food, family, and finding the place you belong. 
Mila may have moved to Coral Beach months ago, but it still doesn’t feel like home. A few awkward incidents with her new friends make her wonder if she’ll ever neatly fit into the super-samey small town. 
The only place she can be herself is at her dad’s Filipino-Indian food truck, The Banana Leaf. But when celebrity chef twins the Fab Foodie Brothers open a restaurant nearby, it turns out the food they are serving is exactly the same as The Banana Leaf's--right down to the recipes! 
Mila realizes that she needs to take the Fab Foodie Brothers down before they run her family's tiny truck out of town. But that means dabbling in the Filipino magic that she has shied away from her whole life . . . as well as alienating her new friends.   
Does Mila have to choose between her family and fitting in? Or, like the best recipes, will a blend of the traditional and the unexpected mix into something truly special?
