The function of money, the benefit of savings, and the hunt for items that are affordable yet adorable, are just a few that the author is excited to share.The simple words take on new meaning as the illustrations pair perfectly with their presentation.

  A Traveler in Time by August Derleth - You can't always escape evils by running away from them... but it may help! 
  "Tell me what time is," said Harrigan one late summer afternoon in a Madison Street bar. "I'd like to know." 
  "A dimension," I answered. "Everybody knows that." 
  "All right, granted. I know space is a dimension and you can move forward or back in space. And, of course, you keep on aging all the time." 
  "Elementary," I said. 
  "But what happens if you can move backward or forward in time? Do you age or get younger, or do you keep the status quo?" 
  "I'm not an authority on time, Tex. Do you know anyone who traveled in time?" 
  Harrigan shrugged aside my question. "That was the thing I couldn't get out of Vanderkamp, either. He presumed to know everything else." 
  "Vanderkamp?" 
  "He was another of those strange people a reporter always runs into. Lived in New York—downtown, near the Bowery. Man of about forty, I'd say, but a little on the old-fashioned side. Dutch background, and hipped on the subject of New Amsterdam, which, in case you don't know, was the original name of New York City." 
  "Don't mind my interrupting," I cut in. "But I'm not quite straight on what Vanderkamp has to do with time as dimension." 
  "Oh, he was touched on the subject. He claimed to travel in it. The fact is, he invented a time-traveling machine."

  Official young readers edition of Ash Barty's #1 bestselling and award-winning memoir. 
    
  It's a tennis story. It's a family story. It's a teamwork story. It's the story of how I got to where and who I am today. 
  My story is about the power and joy of doing that thing you love and seeing where it can take you. 
  It reflects on my whole tennis journey - from the first time I picked up a racquet as a young girl in Queensland, to the night I packed up my tennis bag at Melbourne Park after winning the 2022 Australian Open. It explains how I worked through self-doubt, homesickness and a break from the sport to realise my tennis dreams, winning Wimbledon and ranking number 1 in the world. 
  Maybe my story will inspire you to follow your dreams - I really hope it does.

  A small lock and small chain keep them tied to the tree.

  But try as they might, the key won’t set them free. 
  Can these birds figure out how to finally soar high? 
  Or will they be stuck in the tree til the day that they die?
