    Chinchillas are captivating and unique creatures that have been growing in popularity as pets. Known for their irresistibly soft fur and playful personalities, these small mammals are native to the Andes Mountains of South America. Historically prized for their pelts, chinchillas are now appreciated for their companionship and quirky charm. However, owning a chinchilla requires careful consideration and a commitment to understanding their distinct needs. 
    One of the reasons chinchillas make such fascinating pets is their intriguing combination of traits. They are highly social animals, forming close bonds with their owners when given the right care and attention. At the same time, they are independent and can entertain themselves with appropriate toys and enrichment. Their natural behaviors, such as dust bathing and hopping, provide endless amusement and insight into their wild origins. 
    Chinchillas have delicate constitutions and require specific environmental conditions to thrive. Their thick fur, which insulates them in their native high-altitude habitats, makes them susceptible to overheating. As a result, potential owners must provide a cool and stable living environment. Proper housing, diet, and hygiene practices are crucial for maintaining their health and ensuring a long, happy life.

    The Pumpkin Falls Private Eyes face a pumpkin snatcher and a haunted farm in the fourth and final “cozy mystery” (Booklist) of the Edgar Award–nominated middle grade series from the author of the beloved Mother-Daughter Book Club books. 
    It’s autumn in New England and Truly and her fellow Pumpkin Falls Private Eyes are gearing up for the annual Halloween Festival. Aunt True and her new husband, Rusty, have bought Ethel and Elmer Farnsworth’s dilapidated old farm on the edge of town, where they’re going to raise sheep and where Truly and her grandparents have volunteered to farm- and sheep-sit while the newlyweds are on their honeymoon. 
    But as always, there are mysteries and secrets afoot in Pumpkin Falls. Jack-o’-lanterns outside the shops downtown are going missing—in broad daylight! Plus, someone…or something…is trying to scare Truly’s aunt and uncle away from their new property with some seriously spooky hauntings. 
    With the arrival of Emilio, a new heartthrob student from Italy, and with Calhoun most definitely still in the picture, Truly has her hands full and will need all of her Private Eyes to help her solve the small town shenanigans this fall season.

    One WWII pilot's mission to lift the spirits of children living in war-torn Berlin in 1945 comes to life in this moving middle-grade historical account. After World War II the United States and Britain airlifted food and supplies into Russian-blockaded West Berlin. US Air Force Lieutenant Gail S. Halvorsen knew the children of the city were suffering. To bring a bit of hope, he began dropping chocolate and chewing gum by parachute. 
     
     
     
    What began as a one-time gesture of compassion turned into an official US Air Force operation. "Operation Little Vittles" grew, as more and more pilots volunteered to drop the parachutes, and donations of candy and cloth poured in from all over. This inspiring story of one man's contribution to the rebuilding of a country after war is a unique look at history. 
     
     
     
    Candy Bomber is an important and interesting addition to studies of World War II.
