Synopsis

Ingersoll Lockwood's "Baron Trump's Marvellous Underground Journey" is a unique blend of adventure and fantasy that captures the imaginative spirit of late 19th-century children's literature. Written with an engaging and whimsical prose style, the narrative follows young Baron Trump, a boy endowed with a vivid imagination and a penchant for exploration, as he embarks on an extraordinary quest beneath the earth. Lockwood intricately weaves elements of surrealism and exploration, reflecting the era's fascination with the unknown and the burgeoning literary trend of fantastical journeys that challenge societal norms and celebrate curiosity. Ingersoll Lockwood, an American lawyer and writer, was undoubtedly influenced by his times, particularly the Victorian era's fascination with science and the supernatural. A notable figure in the literary landscape of his day, Lockwood's diverse background, including his experiences with utopian literature and politics, allowed him to create a richly layered story that not only entertains but also subtly critiques societal conventions. His works often explore themes of individuality and the triumph of the adventurous spirit, making him a distinctive voice in children's literature. This book is highly recommended for readers of all ages who are drawn to whimsical adventures and historical perspectives on childhood ideals. Lockwood's imaginative narrative not only provides a captivating escape into a fantastical world but also invites readers to ponder the value of exploration and creativity in their own lives.

    Eliot Katayama is grieving for Babung, her paternal grandmother who just passed away, and she feels like she’s the only one. She’s less than excited to move to her new house, which smells like lemons and deception, and she’s searching for a  
    sign, any sign, that ghosts are real. Because if ghosts are real, it means she can find a way back to Babung.  
     
    When Eliot chases the promise of paranormal activity to the presumably haunted Honeyfield Hall, she finds her proof of spirits. But these ghosts are losing their memories, stuck between this world and the next, waiting to cross over. With the  
    help of Hazel, the granddaughter of Honeyfield’s owner (and Eliot’s new crush), she attempts to uncover the mystery behind Honeyfield Hall and the ghosts residing within. 
     
    And as Eliot fits the pieces together, she may just be able to help the spirits remember their pasts, and hold on to her grandmother’s memory.

    Meet Cat Douglas—monster hunter. A historical fantasy adventure set in Scotland and the first in a series by award-winning author Jane Yolen. 
     
    Cat Douglas is a monster hunter, and in the 1880s, the Scottish countryside is filled with monsters. In Ansthruther, one of the oldest villages of Fife, you can see small sea dragons swimming by looking like small Viking ships, but never anything bigger. . . until now. 
     
    When Maggie McGonagal races up to the schoolhouse screaming she’s seen a dragon, everyone is sure it is a trick of her imagination. But what if it’s real? What if a sea dragon has gotten beyond the wall that protects the village? The local chapter of a Scottish monster-hunting society called the Royal and Ancient, must prepare for battle, including Cat, who is new to the society, and will be the bait for the sea dragon! 
     
    Join Cat and her friends as they adventure through a fantastical and historical Scotland in this first installment of the Sea Monsters series. Graphic novel panels are interspersed throughout the novel, making it an engaging read and the three books in the series have collectible posters meant to be pieced together to create one big poster.
