Synopsis

First published in 1911, "The Story Girl" chronicles the adventures and misadventures of a group of children as they grow up in Prince Edward Island, Canada. Beverley, a young boy sent (with his brother Felix) to stay with relatives while their father is away on business, narrates the novel. Their cousins: bossy Felicity, sweet Celily, and sober Dan; and the other members of the neighbourhood group: cry-baby Sara Ray and indignant Peter the hired boy; join with the Story Girl, a renowned storyteller of their own age, in spending the summer as best they can. Bev, as he is nicknamed, narrates the novel from many years on in remembrance of that summer. It is full of beautiful descriptions and amusing moments which come right out of the page.

Lucy Maud Montgomery offers an absolutely charming novel beautifully evocative of golden childhood summers in a faraway time.

    From the author of Guardians of Ga’Hoole, “nature, magic, and legend combine to create a world like no other” in a tale of polar cubs on a rescue mission (Kirkus Reviews). 
     
    For generations, the noble polar bears have ruled the Northern Kingdoms. But now, their society is on the brink of collapse. A group of power-hungry bears has seized control, and darkness is creeping across the snow. Cubs First and Second don’t know any of this. Although they’re twins, they couldn’t be more different. First loves imagining stories, while his daring sister, Second, wants to live them. When their mother is taken prisoner, the cubs’ world falls apart. They know they have to rescue her, but how can two cubs who’ve barely learned to hunt survive a treacherous journey across the ice? Their only chance is to learn to trust each other and—even more important—trust themselves. But survival is only the beginning. And soon, these two unlikely heroes find themselves at the heart of a battle unlike anything Ga’hoole has ever seen. 
     
    “Readers will lose themselves in the life-and-death adventure of the cubs and succumb to human feelings of fear, loss, and hope . . .” —Booklist 
     
    “A series opener that promises to deliver action and adventure.” —School Library Journal

    Molly always dreamed of having a sister who’s just like her. But she got Chloe, instead. . . . “A charming story about sibling love.” —School Library Journal   These two sisters are nothing alike: Molly loves to color with crayons. Chloe prefers the taste of wax. Molly loves to read. Chloe prefers to nibble on books. Molly is frustrated! But then she realizes that maybe sisters aren’t the ones next to you on the piano bench—they’re the ones dancing to the music you play . . .   This humorous, perceptive snapshot of sisterhood is perfect for those who may need a bit of convincing what fun little siblings can be!   “Will be appreciated in families welcoming a new addition to the household.” —Kirkus Reviews   “The final image of the two sisters snuggling is pure parental delight.” —The New York Times
