Heroes of the Quest

Mirja Camphausen

“Team! I am your leader on this Quest! Follow me!”From the outset of their adventure, Master Mouse is hampered by his hilarious and calamitous teammates who don’t even recognize him as their leader. A mouse, a giraffe, a slug and ... a pig?!? All perfectly imperfect, how can they possibly compete against the mighty lions? Will they even finish the final challenge of Quest School?Master Mouse is a 14,500-word middle-grade children’s story written to amuse, instruct and inspire kids aged 6 to 10 by transporting them to a magical world of adventure while drawing deep parallels with their own journeys of growth and awareness. Beautifully narrated, the story’s clear messages are delivered with humor and pace and give permission to kids of all ages to embrace the life’s endeavors by being brave and vulnerable.We are all perfectly imperfect, and no one demonstrates this better than Master Mouse and his flawed team of Questers who seem doomed to fail from the outset. Unaware of the unique skills each brings, and all keen to suppress their individual flaws, the ragged team struggle to work together, all with the goal to fulfill the graduation requirements for Quest School. During their adventure, Master Mouse manages to lose all of his team members, but, in the end, needs to rely on his team members to be rescued himself. Will this be enough to receive their diplomas?Through a hilarious series of mishaps and misunderstandings, this story shows children how vulnerability brings us closer to each other. It demonstrates how embracing our perceived weaknesses helps us cooperate while acknowledging our individuality and diversity. Many children’s books address the challenges of childhood, coping with life’s lessons and social dynamics, but this book is uniquely positioned to support the current wave of awareness around the dichotomy of inclusion and diversity and shows children how to feel their feelings and be proud of their uniqueness.

S as in Zebatinsky - The Spy Who...

Isaac Asimov

S as in Zebatinsky by Isaac Asimov - A mysterious name keeps surfacing in top-secret reports—Zebatinsky—yet no one knows who he is or why he matters.
Marshall Zebatinsky felt foolish. He felt as though there were eyes staring through the grimy storefront glass and across the scarred wooden partition; eyes watching him. He felt no confidence in the old clothes he had resurrected or the turned-down brim of a hat he never otherwise wore or the glasses he had left in their case.
He felt foolish and it made the lines in his forehead deeрer and his young-old face a little paler.
He would never be able to explain to anyone why a nuclear physicist such as himself should visit a numerologist. (Never, he thought. Never.) Hell, he could not еxplain it to himself except that he had let his wife talk him into it.
The numerologist sat behind an old desk that must have been second-hand when bought. No desk could get that old with only one owner. The same might almost be said of his clothes. He was little and dark and peered at Zebatinsky with little dark eyes that were brightly alive.
He said, "I have never had a physicist for a client before, Dr. Zebatinsky."
Zebatinsky flushed at once. "You understand this is confidential."
The numerologist smiled so that wrinkles creased about the corners of his mouth and the skin around his chin stretched. "All my dealings are confidential."
Zebatinsky said, "I think I ought to tell you one thing. I don't believe in numerology and I don't expect to begin believing in it. If that makes a difference, say so now."
"But why are you here, then?" "
My wife thinks you may have something, whatever it is. I promised her and I am here."
