Summary

In "Norma: A Flower Scout," Lillian Elizabeth Roy delivers a charming tale that intertwines themes of friendship, adventure, and self-discovery through the lens of the Flower Scout movement. Written in a vivid, engaging style, the narrative is imbued with a sense of innocence and enthusiasm characteristic of early 20th-century children's literature. Roy masterfully captures the essence of youthful exploration, employing rich descriptions and relatable dialogue to draw readers into Norma's vibrant world. The book serves as both a celebration of nature and a commentary on the joys of community involvement, reflecting the period's growing interest in outdoor activities and social engagement for girls. Lillian Elizabeth Roy was an influential figure in children's literature, recognized for her ability to engage young audiences with meaningful stories. Her experiences as an educator and her involvement in community activities undoubtedly shaped her understanding of youth empowerment and the importance of nurturing environmental stewardship. Roy's passion for empowering girls through the Flower Scout movement is evident in her character, Norma, who embodies curiosity and compassion, making her relatable to young readers. I highly recommend "Norma: A Flower Scout" to anyone seeking an enchanting read that encourages exploration and fosters a connection with nature. This delightful book not only entertains but also imparts vital lessons on friendship and personal growth, making it an essential addition to any child's library.

    What real parents are saying … 
    “My high-energy toddler twins are asleep in 15 minutes. Bedtime used to take nearly 2 hours—but with Rocket’s calming narration and the beautiful stories from the Yawnimals box set, our nights have totally transformed. They YAWN on cue when Rocket YAWNS, and they’re asleep before the story ends.”  
    - Heather Schalk, Toddler Toolkit Podcast, Mother of 2 toddlers 
    “Their favorites are Amanda the Panda (they love the journey), Benny the Bear (truly magical for relaxation), and Lincoln the Lizard (hello, Monster Trucks!).” 
    “The stories are soothing, my toddlers love the illustrations, and this is now our must-have bedtime ritual. I can’t recommend this enough—it’s a total lifesaver for tired parents.”

    What Jack Horner Did - Little...

    Little Jack Horner sat in a corner, 
    Eating a Christmas pie; 
    He put in his thumb and pulled out a plum 
    And said, "What a good boy am I!" 
    LITTLE JACK HORNER lived in an old, tumble-down house at the edge of a big wood; and there many generations of Horners had lived before him, and had earned their living by chopping wood. Jack's father and mother were both dead, and he lived with his grandfather and grandmother, who took great pains to teach him all that a boy should know. 
    They lived very comfortably and happily together until one day a great tree fell upon Grandpa Horner and crushed his legs; and from that time on he could not work at all, but had to be nursed and tended very carefully. 
    This calamity was a great affliction to the Horners. Grandma Horner had a little money saved up in an old broken teapot that she kept in the cupboard, but that would not last them a great time, and when it was gone they would have nothing with which to buy food. But little Jack was a brave and hard working little lad who tried as best he could to help his grandparents earn a few pennies for food. Then, he rescued a stranger in a bog and their fortunes took a turn for the better. But you had best listen to the whole story to see why Jack had such a plum pie to eat that Christmas day!

    The New York Times–bestselling author returns to the Magykal world of her “deliciously spellbinding” fantasy series with this eBook exclusive novella (Kirkus, starred review of Septimus Heap: Magyk). 
     
    In this tale that takes place between the stories told in Magyk and Flyte, the witches of the Port Witch Coven want DomDaniel’s powerful Darke Toad—and will go to ridiculous lengths to get their hands on it. But first, Simon Heap must get his master to the Port Witch Coven’s door, which may require a bit more Darke Magyk—and a much stronger stomach—than he bargained for. Is Simon up to the task? 
     
    Meanwhile, ExtraOrdinary Wizard Marcia Overstrand has taken her young Apprentice, Septimus Heap, on a field trip to the Port. But what Marcia had hoped would be a fun yet educational outing quickly turns chaotic, for it slipped Marcia’s mind that tonight is Hallowseeth—the perfect night for Darke mischief to go unnoticed among the revelers. 
     
    With Angie Sage’s characteristic humor, beloved characters, and Magykal setting, Septimus Heap: The Darke Toad is a must-read for every Septimus fan.
