Sinossi

Want to know what has happened to the five students known as the Pentagon Pirate Gang?

Following their frantic and life-turning adventure at the School Fruit Teaching, in the Secrets of the Orchard, the five students from Fig House lay ghostly white in the school infirmary after being maliciously poisoned. Two of them recover only to be led into another perilous escapade to find the remedy to cure the remaining three, which lies in the second orchard.

As their dangerous, filled journey continues, they learn shocking new truths about Mr Thornby, the deputy head. Back in the school, tensions mount between the teachers, Amie and her best friend Gramon, with far-reaching consequences, whilst the school's governing body is called in to question the headmistress, one of whom happens to be Gramon's mother, whom she hasn't seen for six months.

Will they all recover and survive what Mrs Blackfruit has planned for them?

    Time Period: 1832  Twelve-year-old Emma Farley has a secret hope-but in 1832, in the rough frontier city of Cincinnati, will she ever be able to live her dream? The odds are against her, considering society's views of "women's work," as well as the more immediate and frightening problems she face-a massive flood of the Ohio River and an epidemic of cholera. Using actual historical events to tell a compelling coming-of-age story, Emma's Secret shows young readers that God-given dreams are meant to be followed. Combining fiction with real events is an ideal way to teach history and faith-especially at this price!

    From USA Today and #1 bestseller Morgan Rice comes A CALL OF TITANS (Book #18), the eighteenth book in the bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING. The series begins with A QUEST OF HEROES (book #1), which has over 5,000 five star ratings!
    
    In A CALL OF TITANS, fifteen years of peace in the Ring are shattered when mysterious breaches appear in the magical Shield, allowing monsters to penetrate the kingdom's defenses. As Thor journeys north to investigate the disturbances, his young warrior son Guwayne struggles with living up to his father's legendary status—until a surprise attack on the kingdom forces him to prove his worth.
    
    But dark forces are at work within the Ring itself, as a cabal of nobles who have long plotted against the royal family seize their opportunity. With Thor facing unexpected dangers in the north, Gwendolyn must make impossible choices to protect her family and the realm she loves. 
    
    As threats converge from all directions, the royal family finds itself separated, with the future of the kingdom hanging in the balance—and each of them forced to face their greatest challenges alone.
    
    With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, THE SORCERER’S RING is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and monsters, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.
    
    Future books in the series are also available!

    The #1 Bestselling series!
    
    This is book #14 in Morgan Rice's bestselling epic fantasy series KINGS AND SORCERERS!
    
    In book #14, the scattered heroes of the realm converge for one last stand against Queen Isolde's tyranny. Lyra, her certainty finally cracked by the consequences of her choices, faces her twin brother Kael across a battlefield where the fate of kingdoms will be decided.
    
    As Kyra rushes to save Kyle, Isolde prepares her ultimate ritual to absorb all crystal power throughout the realm. The armies of mountain, plain, and rebel giants unite, while the ultimate sacrifice is made to free Lyra from the last vestiges of shadow influence. In the final confrontation, as all paths cross and all powers converge, the twins realize what the ancients always knew but generations misunderstood – that the prophecy spoke not of opposition, but of balance.
    
    With its strong atmosphere and complex characters, KINGS AND SORCERERS is a sweeping saga of knights and warriors, of kings and lords, of honor and valor, of magic, destiny, monsters and dragons. It is a story of love and broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is fantasy at its finest, inviting us into a world that will live with us forever, one that will appeal to all ages and genders.
    
    Future books in the series are also available!

    Shirley Chisholm was a natural-born fighter. She didn’t like to be bossed and she wanted things to be fair.
     
    Brooklyn-born Shirley Chisholm was smart and ambitious. She poured her energy into whatever she did—from teaching young children to becoming Brooklyn’s first Black assemblywoman. Not afraid to blaze a trail, she became the first Black woman elected to Congress and the first woman to seriously run for US president. With a vision of liberty and justice for all, she worked for equal rights, for the environment, for children, and for health care. Even now, her legacy lives on and inspires others to continue her work . . . which is not done yet.
     
    Stirring free verse by Tameka Fryer Brown and evocative illustrations by Nina Crews provide an inspirational look at changemaker Shirley Chisholm.
