  Before 1918, the Boston Red Sox were unstoppable. They won World Series after World Series, thanks in part to their charismatic pitcher-slugger Babe Ruth. But some people on the Red Sox felt the Babe was more trouble than he was worth, and he was traded away to one of the worst teams in baseball, the New York Yankees. From then on, the Yankees became a golden team. And the Red Sox? For more than 80 years, they just couldn’t win another World Series. Then, in 2004, along came a scruffy, scrappy Red Sox team. Could they break Babe Ruth’s curse and win it all?

  This children's fantasy novel is set on a fictional, hard-to-reach island somewhere on planet Earth. The island is host to a colony of children, a wicked witch, the crew of the Flying Dutchman, and the titular snergs—as well as unicorns, tigers, bears, ghouls, and dragons that live in the woods. The story follows Sylvia and Joe on an adventure gone wrong once they're taken captive by an ogre, Golithos, and the aforementioned wicked witch: Mother Meldrum. Gorbo the Snerg and Baldry, a court jester, must come to their aid. Published in Britain in 1927, the novel was originally written for the author's young children and follows in the footsteps of J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan and Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. It is widely believed the snergs served as inspiration for J. R. R. Tolkien's hobbits.

  When brother and sister Casey and Kiley crawl inside a hollow log deep in the forest, they expect to find little more than bugs and cobwebs. Instead, they discover Tuttle—a metallic, talking bird who guards a mysterious gateway through time. 
  Drawn into a shimmering blue light, the children are hurled millions of years into the past—to a world ruled by giants. The air hums with strange insects, the ground trembles under the weight of dinosaurs, and danger lurks behind every fern. With Tuttle as their reluctant guide, they meet a frightened baby triceratops caught in a tar pit—and make a choice that could change history itself. 
  Swept through prehistoric jungles, raging rivers, and sky-darkening storms, Casey and Kiley must outwit monstrous predators, face a towering Tyrannosaurus rex, and find their way back home before time closes its door forever. 
  Full of wonder, peril, and heart, Casey and Kiley’s Dinosaur Adventure is a thrilling journey through time where courage, friendship, and one impossible decision shape the fate of the past—and the future.
