Sinopse

Introducing Sookin' Berries, her collection of stories for younger readers, Jess Smith writes: 'I have been a gatherer of tales for most of my life, and I suppose it all began when I was a wee girl. I shared a home with parents, seven sisters and a shaggy dog. It could be said that I lived a different sort of life from most other children, because 'home' was an old blue bus. We were known as tinkers or travellers, descendants of those who have wandered the highways and by ways of Scotland for two thousand years'.
Acclaimed for her autobiographical trilogy, Jessie's Journey, Jess is on a mission to pass on the stories she heard as a girl to the young readers of today.
'If you are aged from around 10 going on 100, then you're a fine age to read, enjoy and hopefully remember forever these ancient oral tales of Scotland's travelling people. What I'd like you to do in this book is to come with me on the road; back to those days when it was time to pack up and get going, and to take the way of our ancestors. I want you to imagine that, as my friend, you are by the campfire listening to the magical Scottish stories that have been handed down through generations of travellers'.

In this middle grade “choose your own adventure” story, the reader decides whether to take on animal morphing powers to help battle an alien invasion. 
 
Hey. We’re sure you already know the deal, but in case you don’t, there’s an alien invasion going on. Right here. Right now. We’re not talking about little green guys. And no, we’re not nuts. But this invasion is the reason we have the power to morph into any animal we touch. To acquire its DNA. To try and battle these Yeerks—that’s what the aliens call themselves. 
 
But things have gotten worse. And we need backup. A new Animorph. We’ve tried this once before and it didn’t work out. At all. We’re gonna try again. So, since you know what we’re up against, can we trust you? 
 
Are you ready to be an Animorph?

“The princes Charming reunite for another slapstick, kingdom-saving quest” in an illustrated children’s adventure series that’s “funny and full of heart” (Kirkus). 
 
Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You remember them, don't you? They're the Princes Charming, who finally got some credit after they stepped out of the shadows of their princesses—Cinderella, Rapunzel, Snow White, and Briar Rose—to defeat an evil witch bent on destroying all their kingdoms.  
 
But alas, such fame and recognition only last so long. And when the princes discover that an object of great power might fall into any number of wrong hands, they are going to have to once again band together to stop it from happening—even if no one will ever know it was they who did it. 
 
This hilarious, action-packed adventure is the sequel to Christopher Healy’s The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom, which the New York Times selected as one of its best books of the year.
