  A frozen family "business trip" to Sweden's Ice Hotel sets the Peaches on a new grand adventure. 
   
   
   
  Cashing in on his family's recent good-luck streak, ten-year-old Freddy Peach has been entering his family in a bunch of sweepstakes, but he doesn't really expect to win. And then he does—a free family trip to the Ice Hotel in Sweden! Since the Peaches are now the proud owners of their own bed-and-breakfast, they decide they can't pass up on the opportunity. It's research. They'll learn more about what it takes to operate a successful hotel from one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world. 
   
   
   
  But what the Peaches don't know is that five families from five frozen locations have been brought together to compete for the honor of frozen best. They'll face-off in a series of challenges from dog sled racing to ice carving to an ice-cold cook out. But when the going gets tough, the Peaches have always come together in the past. Why should this time be any different? 
   
   
   
  The third book in the Great Peach Experiment series, Frozen Peaches is a sweet treat, mixing humor, adventure, warmth (despite the cold), and a lot of heart to make another great book listeners will be delighted to devour.

  For any child who has ever felt unsure about the kind of squirrel they truly are. 
  Allie is the only albino squirrel in all of Waverly Woods. Being the only one with white fur makes her feel different and unsure of herself. With the help of Momma Squirrel and a new friend, Bree, Allie is reminded that the color of her fur isn't the only thing that defines her. Really, what defines her is all the wonderful qualities that live inside of her heart. 
  In Allie the Albino Squirrel, author E.K. McCoy uses her years of experience working with children to remind us that there isn't just one thing that defines who we are. All the qualities we possess are used to better the world, and where Allie sees herself as "strange," Bree sees her as beautiful and kind. With fun illustrations by Ghazal Qadri, this wonderful book of self-acceptance will be a joy to all children!
