Synopsis

When Jacob and his parents move to a mansion in the countryside, Jacob is not surprised to find so many ghosts. Of course there would be ghosts in such a big, old place!
 
But why are they trapped on Earth, and what is their reason for haunting? And who are the mysterious twins that appear on the same date every year? Jacob doesn’t mind sharing his room with Andrew, young master of Neville Mansion; even though Andrew died a hundred years ago, he still has a lively sense of humour.
 
Jacob's parents can't see the ghosts, so it's up to Jacob to prevent the third-floor ghost frightening his mother when she wants to redecorate, and help the old lady with white hair to find her lost necklace. But what is the connection between Andrew's death and the restless ghosts?

An untold American frontier story … 
North Dakota, 1905  
After fleeing persecution in the Russian Empire, eleven-year-old Shoshana and her  
family, Jewish immigrants, start a new life on the prairie. Shoshana takes fierce joy  
in the wild beauty of the plains and the thrill of forging a new, American identity.  
But it’s not as simple for her older sister, Libke, who misses their Ukrainian village  
and doesn’t learn English as quickly or make friends as easily.  
Desperate to fit in, Shoshana finds herself hiding her Jewish identity in the face of  
prejudice, just as Libke insists they preserve it. For the first time, Shoshana is at  
odds with her beloved sister, and has to look deep inside herself to realize that  
her family’s difference is their greatest strength. By listening to the music that’s  
lived in her heart all along, Shoshana finds new meaning in the Jewish expression  
all beginnings are difficult, as well as in the resilience and traditions her people  
have brought all the way to the North Dakota prairie.

Hazel  had a unique wish: she wanted the sun all to herself. Her love for its 
radiant glow was so immense that she thought it best to keep it within the confines of her own room, nestled in a fishbowl, no less. This way, she could bask in its glorious light at all hours, not just during the day. And how does one fulfil such a grand desire? By stealing it, naturally.
 
But would such a bold act go unnoticed? Could Hazel find herself in trouble for her sun-snatching adventure? Hazel and Her Sun is the enchanting tale of a little girl who daringly captures the sun – if only for a short time. Her journey takes a turn when she realizes that achieving her dream doesn’t bring the joy she expected. This heartwarming story unfolds Hazel’s realization about the true nature of happiness and the importance of sharing beauty with the world.
