Synopsis

Frances Hodgson Burnett's "The Complete Works of Frances Hodgson Burnett (Unabridged)" compiles the celebrated author's diverse literary contributions, exploring themes of childhood, resilience, and the restorative power of nature. Known for her vivid storytelling and rich character development, Burnett's prose deftly merges realism and imagination, inviting readers into enchanting worlds marked by rich sensory detail. This comprehensive collection provides an invaluable context for understanding the evolution of her works and their place in the late 19th-century literary canon, where the interplay between social class and personal transformation is paramount. Born in 1849 in Manchester, England, Burnett was a pioneer of children's literature, largely shaped by her own experiences of hardship and migration. Her works often reflect her belief in the healing properties of friendship and nature, stemming from her tumultuous childhood and the challenges faced as an immigrant in America. Notably, her personal trials fueled her imagination and commitment to writing stories that convey hope and renewal, influencing generations of writers and readers alike. This unabridged collection is essential for those who wish to delve into Burnett's timeless narratives, offering profound insights into the human spirit while celebrating the joys of childhood. Ideal for literary enthusiasts, educators, and anyone seeking inspiration from stories rich in warmth and imagination.

    When 12-year-old Kolby wakes up in an empty white room, he has no memory, no clothes, and no idea where he is. He soon discovers he’s one of a dozen kids living in an extravagant penthouse atop the tallest tower in the city. Adults are nowhere to be found, and, like Kolby, all the kids are missing their memories. The kids in the tower spend their time scaling the climbing wall, riding a waterslide into an Olympic-sized swimming pool, or playing video games on the 105-inch 8K video screen. A mysterious “manifesting room” magically provides both food and rewards. They have virtually everything a kid could want. 
      
    Except a way out. 
      
    None of the kids show much concern for each other, let alone new arrival Kolby. Haunted by fragments of memories he can’t quite understand, Kolby just wants to escape the penthouse and go home. 
      
    Unfortunately, the only way to get out is by participating in the tower’s enigmatic game—a kind of scavenger hunt that takes place in the surrounding city. Players are chosen for teams by the tower’s apparent leader, Gen. But beneath her glib detachment, Gen harbors a secret—she knows more about the tower than she lets on, including the dark, inevitable truth about all their fates. When game time arrives, it looks like Kolby has found his ticket out of the tower—but escape isn’t so simple.

    "Lines are amazing—from thick to thin (and from thicker to thinner)! Just think of
    what you can make with them: triangles, squares, and circles. Houses, tigers,
    even ice cream cones! What else can you make with a line?"
