Enchanted Glass

Diana Wynne Jones

Sinopsis

Aidan Cain has had the worst week of his life. His gran died, he was sent to a foster home, and now malicious beings are stalking him. There is one person Gran told Aidan to go to if he ever got into trouble—a powerful sorcerer who lives at Melstone House. 
But when Aidan arrives on the doorstep, he finds that the sorcerer's grandson, Andrew, has inherited the house. The good news is that Aidan can tell immediately that Andrew's brimming with magic, too—and so is everyone else at Melstone. The bad news is that Andrew doesn't remember anything his grandfather taught him. Chaos is swiftly rising, and he has no idea how to control it. A sinister neighbor is stealing power from the land, magic is leaking between realms . . . and it's only a matter of time before the Stalkers find Aidan. 
If Aidan and Andrew can harness their own magics, they may be able to help each other. But can they do it before the entire countryside comes apart at the seams?

Mommy! Mommy!

Taro Gomi

“The story’s gentle surprises are sure to delight, as will the birds’ happy reunion.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)   Toddlers and beginning readers will love joining in on the quest for a missing mother chicken in this sweet book by the beloved, award-winning author and illustrator that shows how appearances can be deceiving . . .   “Two little chicks play hide-and-seek with their mother. But though they find her easily enough on their first two tries, the game becomes more difficult; the shape of the comb on top of the hen’s head turns out to be very like the petals of a flowering tree, the fur of a growling dog, and the rays of the rising sun . . . There’s a nice balance of predictability and surprise in Gomi’s narrative that should appeal to preschoolers.” —The New York Times

The Intuitive Chakras - The Upper 3

Papaya Frostt

Introduce your child to the world of chakras with our 15-in-1 children's audio book collection, focused on the three higher chakras - Throat, Third Eye, and Crown.
The Throat Chakra is associated with communication, expression, and creativity, while the Third Eye Chakra is associated with intuition, imagination, and spiritual connection. The Crown Chakra represents our connection to the divine and the infinite, as well as our sense of purpose and meaning in life.
Each book in this collection has been carefully crafted to help children connect with these three chakras in a meaningful way. I will give a fair warning when getting into the intuitive side of the chakras. The Third Eye and Crown Chakra can be intense for beginners. However, even though these chakras can be a deep subject for younger children, it presents a unique opportunity for them to explore their inner world and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them. As with all of our books, we encourage parents to use their own judgment and guidance when exploring these concepts with their children.
Through these books, your child will learn the value of self-expression and creative freedom, the importance of trusting their inner voice and intuition, and the power of finding meaning and purpose in life.
So if you're looking for a way to help your child explore the concepts of the higher chakras and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world, look no further than The Intuitive Upper 3 Chakra Pack!

The Voice - Mysteries of the...

Brian P Stewart

The Voice 
This project began with a missionary journey to Akum, Ethiopia the Center of the Coptic Church and also the legendary home of the Temple housing the Ark of the Covenant -a magnificent religious work of art which featured two prominent golden Angels extended wings shrouding an ark containing the Ten Commandments, Aaron’s Rod and Manna. The novel picks up the story in the 1990's with an updated archeological discovery and an ensuing battle for control of the legendary Jewish symbol from the time of Solomon. Those in the region battle to exterminate any historical verification of the Jewish Scrolls found throughout the caves of the Middle East. 
Megalomaniacs are trying to destroy the world, Adventurers are trying to help orphans, rescue the despondent and everyone is competing with a huge religious groups, trying to abscond with the ark. The characters are engaging. It is a fast moving evolving plot set in Detroit, Rome and Africa. It will not disappoint.
