  In January 1961, three days before President Dwight D. Eisenhower passed the torch to John F. Kennedy, the president had one final mission. 
  In the young readers’ edition of his New York Times bestselling book, Fox News anchor Bret Baier examines the historic transition and Eisenhower’s last chance to lead the country he loved through his legendary farewell address and his personal appeals to Kennedy.  
  Baier paints a vivid picture of the contrasts between old and new at the beginning of a decisive decade in American history. Eisenhower and Kennedy were very different men. Eisenhower, at seventy, was an elder statesman, a five-star Army general during WWII, and one of the most popular Republican presidents of the past century. Kennedy, a forty-three-year-old Democrat, had captured the nation’s attention with his energy and youth, but was inexperienced. 
  Eisenhower believed he had hard-won knowledge to pass on to his successor, but he didn’t know if Kennedy would listen. It was Eisenhower’s final mission as president to leave the new president, and the country, with the lessons he had learned and guidance for a direction forward. 
  Meticulously researched, broad in scope, and full of timely insights, this edition will enable young readers to experience a piece of “living history” and will inspire a deeper understanding of the pivotal moments that forged the next seventy-five years.

  An amazing true story of a young sailor during the American Revolution, for readers of all ages. 
  The Revolutionary War is raging, and 12-year-old Christopher Hawkins runs away to follow his dream of being a sailor and a patriot. During his first sea adventure, the British capture his ship. Quick-witted Christopher escapes at his first opportunity. 
  At 17, Christopher joins another American privateer ship but is soon captured by the British. This time, he is delivered to the notorious British ship HMS Jersey, the war's deadliest prison. Armed with only courage, cunning, and a sense of humor, Christopher Hawkins will face death unless he can escape from his British captors twice more. 
  This novel and tale of survival is adapted and expanded from author Becijos' great-great-great-great-grandfather's memoir. 
  EDITORIAL REVIEWS 
  CHRISTOPHER HAWKINS AND HIS DARING ESCAPES is a story of grit, determination, courage, and the indomitable will to survive. Jeanne Brownlee Becijos draws upon the experiences of her great-great-great-great grandfather to tell an absorbing tale about a young man's quest to fight for his country's freedom. Set in the latter half of the 18th century, Becijos's story brilliantly captures the prevailing mood of the ordinary folk of that era and crafts an immersive setting with realistic characters and a world that feels lived in.    
  Readers' Favorite, 5-star Review 
  This novelization is at turns harrowing and funny as its cycles of capture-and-escape gets twistier and ever-more surprising. 
  Publishers Weekly, BookLife Editor's Pick 
  The narrative is written in first person, paying homage to the original memoir it was inspired by; this diary-like format allows readers to truly experience the story as if it were happening to them.  Kirkus Reviews

  In a kingdom filled with magic, Jiho Park and his family are an anomaly—magic doesn’t affect them. 
  Jiho comes from a long line of forest rangers who protect the Kidahara—an ancient and mysterious wood that is home to powerful supernatural creatures. But Jiho wants nothing to do with the dangerous forest. 
  Five years ago, his father walked into the Kidahara and disappeared. Just like the young Princess Koko, the only daughter of the kingdom’s royal family. Jiho knows better than anyone else the horrors that live deep in the magical forest and how those who go in never come back. 
  Now the forest is in danger from foreign forces that want to destroy it, and a long-forgotten evil that’s been lurking deep in the Kidahara for centuries finally begins to awaken. Can a magic-less boy, a fierce bandit leader, and a lost princess join forces and save their worlds before it’s too late?
