    Sweet Pea, the youngest mouse in her family of five, faces the biggest challenge of her life. Her father, Babbo, has unexpectedly disappeared at the worst time, just as they are starting crucial chores to stock their storage bins for the winter. She must break through her family's grief. She must overcome her mother's attempts to confine her to their garden. She must venture into an unknown world on her own. And, with no clues, she must try to find and rescue her dad, if he remains alive. After one battle after another against multiple predators, Sweet Pea joins forces with a young mouse named Willow who has escaped from his own captivity. With their survival at stake, she teaches Willow how she has learned to fly with her home-made cape; and together, they utilize that skill, along with their fast banter and quick thinking, to uncover her father’s mysterious past and the possible site of his unexpected capture. In this first book of a series, Sweet Pea must do much more than simply rescue her dad. She must establish a partnership with Willow, track down the renowned Champagne Legend, and confront an unexpected adversary. With these life-threatening journeys, she must start the training to prepare herself for a world beyond her comprehension and a future unlike anything she could have possibly imagined.

    Every line on a map tells a story — of power, of possibility, of people divided and connected in equal measure. 
    In Crossing Latitude, acclaimed travel writer Reece Davis traces the invisible boundaries that carve the planet, journeying along parallels and meridians from the equator to the Arctic Circle. Through deserts, oceans, and city streets, he meets those who live where these unseen lines dictate climate, culture, and fate. 
    From fishermen on the Tropic of Capricorn to scientists at 60° North, Davis uncovers how geography shapes humanity’s rhythm — and how the act of crossing a line, literal or metaphorical, reveals who we truly are. 
    Thought-provoking, vivid, and deeply human, Crossing Latitude invites readers to see the world not as a series of borders, but as a living, breathing web of connection.

    A witty, absurdist satire of the last 500 years, Alexandra Petri's US History is the fake textbook you never knew you needed! 
     
     
     
    Alexandra Petri's US History contains a lost (invented!) history of America. (A history for people disappointed that the only president whose weird sex letters we have is Warren G. Harding.) Petri's "historical fan fiction" draws on real events and completely absurd fabrications to create a laugh-out-loud, irreverent takedown of our nation's complicated past. 
     
     
     
    On Petri's deranged timeline, John and Abigail Adams try sexting, the March sisters from Little Women are sixty feet tall, and Susan Sontag goes to summer camp. Nearly eighty short, hilarious pieces span centuries of American history and culture. Nikola Tesla's friends stage an intervention when he falls in love with a pigeon. The characters from Sesame Street invade Normandy. And Mark Twain—who famously said reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated—offers a detailed account of his undeath, in which he becomes a zombie. 
     
      
     
    This side-splitting work of historical humor shows why Alexandra Petri has been hailed as a "genius," a "national treasure," and "one of the funniest writers alive."
