  “An introduction to Santiago Ramón y Cajal, an artist and medical researcher who made a crucial discovery. … Brightly illuminates a brilliant and multitalented yet unjustly obscure scientist.”—Kirkus Reviews 
    
  Santiago Ramón y Cajal’s father, the village doctor, wants Santiago to be a doctor. He discourages his willful son’s love and aptitude for art. But drawing and painting are as necessary to Santiago as breathing, so when his father confiscates his art supplies, the boy finds a way to draw in secret. He draws on doors, gates, and walls, and to the neighbors, his drawings are a nuisance. But Santiago sees things differently. He’s an artist and always will be, even after he grows up and becomes a doctor. And art helps him discover what no one else could: branching connections within the nervous system. Debut author Christine Iverson’s vivid text evokes Santiago’s pioneering nature. Facts about neurons and the science behind Santiago Ramón y Cajal’s 1906 Nobel Prize for Medicine round out this brilliant account of a boy who shaped his scientific fate as an artist.

  Sometimes an invention is so good that no one will believe you. There you are, with a fabulous new piece of technology that is worth millions and you are still starving to death because you are a 'crackpot'. Well, if you are smart, like the inventor in this story, you learn your lesson and start telling people your invention is just something they know and use every day, just a bit better. Sure it's a lie but people have to believe before they will part with the big bucks. If it works, it ain't stupid. And this inventor is definitely not stupid. Randall Garrett gives us a wonderfully wry story about human nature in his unique and very entertaining way. Listen and enjoy.

  Join Frank and Joe, two adventurous teenage brothers with a knack for solving mysteries, in the sixth installment of the classic mystery series for young readers: The Hardy Boys!  
  The city of Bayport is at the mercy of a ring of car thieves! Vehicles have been disappearing off of the well-traveled Shore Road for three weeks; eventually, the gang gets bolder and starts moving their sights to the city. With the police and even Fenton Hardy running into dead ends, the town is in an uproar. The ring runs like a well-oiled machine: no one sees the thieves and the cars seemingly disappear into thin air despite patrols on either end of the Shore Road. Incentivized by a victimized friend, the Hardy Boys are determined to bring down the gang… but at what cost?  
  Publishers Note: This audiobook edition of The Shore Road Mystery is based on the first edition, originally published in 1928, not the 1964 revision.
