  What do you get if you add a beaker full of STEAM + a sprinkle of mischief + a heaping dose of humor? Kinzie's Kinventions of course! 
  Recommended for ages 6-9, this chapter book series will appeal to the readers of Junie B. Jones. 
  The whole class is going on a field trip to the zoo! But too bad for classroom rivals Kinzie and Ben. Neither of them can go thanks to getting—and sharing—pink eye. To make it even worse, Ben’s mom can’t take off from work, which means Ben has to come to Kinzie’s house for the day. And there’s no time to make a Kinvention to stop that. Kinzie and Ben decide if they can’t go on the field trip, maybe they can create their own backyard zoo instead. What could possibly go wrong with that great idea?

  Three Wise Cats is an inspirational tale about three cats and their journey to witness the first Christmas. The old Siamese Ptolemy was alongside his master when a star of unusual brightness was seen in the heavens, indicating an event of momentous significance, and leading to a great place and fulfill the prophecy: The three shall find the one. The three are, Abishag - a sturdy, reliable cat who has never shirked her duty; Kezia - a beautiful young tabby, delicate, a bit vain, but of good heart; and Ira - taller and stronger than the others, with a temper.
  Accompanying them is a fourth traveler - the rat, Asmodeus, who can hear of no glorious thing without wanting to spoil it. Together, the unlikely band will cover many miles, and have many dangerous adventures. And finally they will come to a far land, where the star bends close to the earth over a humble stable.
