Synopsis

In Mary Mapes Dodge's classic novel 'Hans Brinker', readers are transported to the 19th century Netherlands where the story follows the hardships and triumphs of a young boy named Hans Brinker. The book is written in a vivid and descriptive style, capturing the essence of Dutch culture and traditions. Dodge skillfully weaves together themes of perseverance, family loyalty, and the power of hope, making it a timeless coming-of-age tale. Set against the backdrop of the famous Dutch passion for ice skating, the narrative unfolds with a mix of heartwarming moments and poignant lessons. Mary Mapes Dodge, known for her children's literature, drew inspiration from her own childhood memories and experiences. Growing up in New York, she developed a fascination with Dutch customs, which is evident in 'Hans Brinker'. Her portrayal of Dutch life is highly regarded for its authenticity and attention to detail, showcasing her meticulous research and dedication to storytelling. I highly recommend 'Hans Brinker' to readers of all ages who enjoy historical fiction with a strong emphasis on moral values and cultural exploration. Dodge's masterful prose and engaging characters make this novel a must-read for anyone looking for a captivating journey through the Dutch countryside.

    Uncle Wiggily Longears is the main character and beloved icon of a series of children's stories by American author Howard R. Garis. He began writing the stories for the Newark News in 1910. Garis penned an Uncle Wiggily take every day for more than fifty two years, and published some seventy nine books in his lifetime.

That being said, the instantly lovable, dear old Uncle Wiggily is also close to many amicable animals friends and family, such his muskrat housekeeper, Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy, as well as Sammie and Susie Littletail, Jimmie Wibblewobble, Dr. Possum, Uncle Butter, Jackie and of course, Peetie Bow-Wow. 
    Uncle Wiggily has been around now for over 100 years delighting children, gently educating, and enchanting generations of faithful fans. That he is still as popular today as he was over a century ago is testament to the wit and character instilled in these tall tales by the author and the kind old rabbit gentleman he created so long ago!

    ‘Thea and Milo, the Strange Couple and the Trial of the Venusian Baby’ is an original, entertaining and highly amusing story. It features unique characters, an extremely imaginative plot and a gripping finale. A seemingly normal Hicks family holiday soon turns into something completely different! It’s told from the point of view of nine-year-old Thea. She tells of a strange couple, and an amazing bond she shares with one of them. There’s an alien who smells of cabbage, another alien disguised as a wardrobe, a golf-loving giant fish and more aliens to discover besides. This remarkable book will delight children and adults alike. This is the first story from the fertile mind of Darren Carpenter and, judging by the ending, possibly not his last.

Second, there's a secret underground that unlocks not one but two of Elsewhere's biggest, most powerful, most dangerous forces yet.

    When an unexpected face appears at the door to Sprout’s cave in Coven’s Corner, he knows that secrets are at risk of coming out. The question is, who is going to have to tell the truth, because Wizards aren’t easy to hide. 
    Sprout has his work cut out trying to keep things running smoothly, what with hooting owls butting in on conversations, a sprite determined to catch up with a promise-bearer and a riddle frog on a mission to fulfil his destiny. Wandering around the forest turns out to be much more challenging than he could ever have imagined. 
    How easy is it to trick a sprite? Who is prepared to eat wriggly food? Are hooting owls all-knowing, or just all-seeing? Find out today by taking a leaf out of Sprout’s book and entering The Forest of the Hooting Owl. 
    The Goblin and a Wizard Search, Book Three in the Tales from the Forest of the Hooting Owl Series, is a tale for children aged 8-12 and anyone else who is young of heart. 
    This audiobook includes an exclusive interview with Wizard.
