  From New York Times bestselling author Madeleine Roux and acclaimed artist Tim Probert comes the second installment in the original Dungeons & Dragons middle grade series! 
  In the second installment of the Dungeon & Dragons middle grade series, something BIG has come knocking on the gates of Dungeon Academy! The undefeated Waterdeep Dragons have arrived for the Tourney of Terror games, which happens every fifty years and features every monster’s favorite sport: Goreball! 
  The Dungeon Academy Flumphs are outnumbered, outsized, and outmonstered! But our hero, Zelli Stormclash (a forbidden human, secretly disguised as a minotaur), is no stranger to impossible odds. Just a few weeks ago, Zelli and her crew, the Danger Club, came face-to-face with a maniacal necromancer and his army of undead!  
  If this wasn’t enough to raise scales Zelli’s reoccurring nightmare of a dark entity annihilating her world may be more than just a bad dream. Something sinister is lurking in the halls of the academy, and only Zelli seems to notice. But when Zelli uncovers a dark past hidden beneath Dungeon Academy, she unlocks something that will concern everyone at school, every dragon at Waterdeep, and everything within the Forgotten Realms. 
  Get ready for humor, heart, magic, and adventure as middle graders and beyond learn to embrace who they are, accept others' differences, and discover the hidden secrets that dwell deep within themselves, and within Dungeon Academy!

  This fifteenth Spid the Spider adventure will inspire children, especially budding bakers and entrepreneurs everywhere.  In the story, Bid dreams of setting up her own artisan bakery though she faces numerous set-backs in turning her dream into reality. With grit, determination, and Spid’s help, she learns from the setbacks and finds a way to succeed.  It’s a fun-filled story that also educates by encouraging a ‘growth mindset’. Baking is increasingly seen as a fun, creative activity that families and children can do together. This sense of involvement and creativity aligns perfectly in this latest Spid the Spider adventure. The story also aligns with the global phenomena and cultural touchstones of The Great British Bake Off (GBBO) and The Apprentice.  
  This audiobook features two songs: ‘Dreams’ and ‘Honey Bee Cakes’. These further immerse children in the story.  ‘Dreams’ is a motivational song with a ‘growth-mindset’ message; “Don’t get down, you can turn it around, your plans are sound, and you can rebound”. ‘Honeybee Cakes’ has a sunny-feel-good-calypso-Caribbean vibe, with fabulous rising harmonies. “Honey bee, honey bee, honey bee cakes” 
  Spid is a role model for children. He’s a hard-working, cool, and funny spider, who makes mistakes, but learns from them. He helps children embrace what psychologists call a ‘growth mindset’ - a determination to better oneself and succeed. All books are supported by free parent and teacher resources to entertain and inspire children, helping them learn. These include a honeybee cake recipe and instructions to make a bee hotel.

  Across the endless sands of Saharion, where veil dancers swirl prophecies in silk and nomad warlords etch oaths in storm-scarred blades, dancer Mira unveils a visionary union with warlord Kael, whose nomadic heart yearns for a fate beyond the dunes. Their love, swirled in veil vows and sand-kissed caresses, unveils the desert's secrets—or buries them in tempestuous gales. As they traverse vision-haunted oases and oath-bound caravans, shadowed by oracle rivals and dune stalkers, Mira's silken grace merges with Kael's warlike resolve, revealing a desert oracle legend of unveiled destiny. When a fractured veil summons sand spirits, they must dance the union to calm the storm. In the swirl of silk veils, where every vision whispers promise and every oath carves the soul, their visionary bond becomes the oasis that quenches the wanderer's thirst.
