Summary

Goldest? Is that really you? Why - why, you are beautiful! a bewildered Esbri exclaimed. When you've been turned by a miscast spell into a golden frog, events can catch you, as they say, on the hop. And when those events mean the castle you're in is being attacked by a scary army of Thorn Warriors with slashing blades for branches, you may think you're about to croak your last. Can the Thorn Warriors be repelled from the freshly restored Ladybug Castle? Will the handsome Gypsy Warrior, Esbri, play a part in the defense, and claim the hand of Goldest, his shining Queen? Will peace reign, or will the sinister Theo, an evil monk full of ancient magicry, spread further unrest through the Kingdom of Thorns? Joanne Durda's second book in her trilogy offers excitement, sorcery, shapeshift and humor in its action-packed pages. Readers will be happy to know that a third volume is in preparation - but meanwhile, join Goldest and her friends on the castle ramparts!

    In this true story written for young readers, a teen is the only survivor of a plane crash and must stay alive in the South American jungle until rescue. 
     
    Peru, Christmas Eve, 1970. It was supposed to be a routine flight, carrying eighty-six passengers across the Andes Mountains and home for the holiday. But high above the Amazon rainforest, a roiling storm engulfs the plane. Lightning strikes. A deafening whoosh sweeps through the cabin. And suddenly, seventeen-year-old Juliane Koepcke is alone. The plane has vanished. She is strapped to her seat and plunging 3,500 feet to the forest floor. On Christmas Day, she wakes. She is injured, covered in mud, but strangely—miraculously—alive. And now, in a remote corner of the largest rainforest on Earth, the real battle for survival begins.

Vannie Kirkland is spending the summer on her Aunt Bert’s farm while her parents are looking for work in California.

Then, just when Vannie is beginning to appreciate Aunt Bert and her way of life, trouble starts brewing. Someone has been lurking around the farm, vandalizing the property. To top it all off, Muffy gets lost!   Vannie helps Aunt Bert figure out who’s trying to scare them, captures the culprit, and learns a thing or two about what it means to compromise.
