Synopsis

In "Harding's Luck," E. Nesbit masterfully weaves a tale that combines elements of fantasy and everyday life, reflecting the late Victorian era's shifting social dynamics. The narrative follows the misadventures of Mr. Harding, an unassuming clerk whose life takes unexpected turns due to a series of lucky occurrences. Nesbit's prose is imbued with sharp wit and a keen understanding of human nature, showcasing her unique ability to blend humor with nuanced social commentary. The book sits comfortably within the genre of children's literature while appealing to a broader audience, as it grapples with themes of fortune, resilience, and the unpredictability of life. E. Nesbit, a pioneering figure in children's literature, was influenced by her own experiences of hardship and fantasy. Born in 1858, she was an advocate for children's rights and a fervent supporter of social reform. Her background in social activism and her fascination with imaginative storytelling shaped her narrative style, inviting readers into a world where the ordinary confronts the extraordinary. "Harding's Luck" is a delightful read for anyone captivated by charm, humor, and the intricate dance of fate and fortune. Whether you are revisiting Nesbit's enchanting worlds or discovering them for the first time, this novel promises to engage your imagination and evoke a sense of wonder, making it an essential addition to your literary collection.

    John David Anderson returns to the world of superheroes he created in Sidekicked with an entirely new cast of characters in Minion, a funny and emotional companion to his first breakout tween novel—perfect for superhero fans who also love the work of bestselling authors Rick Riordan, Louis Sachar, and Frank Cottrell Boyce. 
    Michael Morn might be a villain, but he's really not a bad guy. When you live in New Liberty, there are no Supers and only two kinds of people: those who turn to crime and those who suffer. Michael and his adoptive father spend their days building boxes—special devices with mysterious abilities—that they sell to the mob at a price. They provide for each other, they look out for each other, and they'd never betray each other.  
    But then a Super comes to town, and Michael's world is thrown into disarray. The Comet could destroy everything Michael and his dad have built, the safe and secure life they've made for themselves. And now Michael and his father face a choice: to hold tight to their life or to let it unravel.
