  Xuanzang and his disciples came upon the Kingdom of Zhuzi, where the king was seriously ill. To cure his illness, the king issued a royal notice to find a good doctor. The monkey saw it and cured the king with three pills. The king was suffering from love sickness because his queen had been caught by a demon. The demon had three bells which could emit fire, smoke, and sand. With the help of the queen, the monkey stole the bells and subdued the demon. After Guanyin came, the demon was forced to revert to his true appearance, which was the steed of Guanyin. The monkey released the queen, helping the royal family reunite.

  LONDON, 1881. 
   
  There’s something a little eerie about Manon—she’s not like the other girls at the orphanage. Maybe it’s her red eyes. Maybe it’s her silence. Maybe it’s the series of violent deaths that seem to follow her. 
   
  What we do know: Someone is hot on her tail. And there’s a lot of money at stake in finding out where exactly she comes from—and what exactly she is.  
   
  Alongside Manon’s story are letters to Charles Darwin from Professor Humphrey, a scientist who has recently died under mysterious circumstances. Is it true that natural selection left humans at the top of the pyramid of life after all? Or, in the  
  process of evolution, was there something elemental that humans lost, something that connected us to the rest of life on earth? Who and what else is out there? 
   
  In order to stay alive, Manon must untangle the mystery of her origins, and perhaps the origins of humanity as well.  
   
  From French writer Alice Brière-Haquet and translated by PEN-award winning translator Emma Ramadan comes Phalaina—the historical sci-fi thriller you won’t soon forget.

  Asian/Pacific American Honor for Children's Literature 
  A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection 
  Perfect for fans of Debbi Michiko Florence and Lisa Greenwald, Clairboyance’s heartfelt and sweet coming of age story with a touch of magic follows Clara as her life is turned upside down when she discovers that she has boy-specific ESP abilities. 
  After accidentally wishing on a family heirloom to hear what boys are thinking, Clara wakes up the next day able to do just that. Every idea, every worry, every generous or petty thought crossing their minds—somehow, they now form a chorus of voices in hers. 
  But why couldn’t her newfound powers have arrived sooner? Then, maybe, she could have stopped her ex–best friend Leo from betraying her and ditching her for the more popular kids. At least her dad is open to the idea of moving her off O‘ahu and out to Arizona to be with him. 
  If Clara can use what she hears to solve her problems, then her powers might just be able to make up for lost time—but instead, she ends up making a bigger mess of everything. While scrambling to fix her mistakes, Clara must question old friendships, enter into new ones, and try to figure out what makes a home, and if she is willing to leave hers behind.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  With every word she writes, Heather Vardon hopes to inspire children to speak their truth, cherish their individuality, and believe in the beauty of being exactly who they are. 
  In the vibrant world of Petal Valley, where butterflies dance beneath golden skies, Willy Discovers His Voice is a tender tale of finding courage, embracing uniqueness, and discovering the strength within. 
  Willy is a quiet soul with bright blue wings and even brighter dreams. While others laugh and play, he watches from afar - longing to join, but unsure if he belongs. Through moments of doubt and whispers of hope, Willy learns that true bravery isn’t about being loud and bold, it is about being true to yourself. 
  With lyrical charm and heartfelt rhymes, this story celebrates every child’s journey toward self-expression, kindness, and connection. It’s a gentle reminder that even the softest voice has the power to rise, and that sometimes, even the hardest hearts, like Hank’s, can bloom with friendship. 
  A love letter to empathy, growth, and the quiet strength inside us all, this book invites readers young and old to walk the path of compassion, where no one is left behind and every heart finds its rhythm. 
  “My purpose, and the intention behind my books, is to guide others from the very beginning to look within themselves and embrace their unique selves and authenticity. We need to become aware and reflect on our own inner child and heal ourselves in order to raise our next generation with love, free of our expectations and demands of society. When we do this, we break free from the chains of our own upbringing and societal programming allowing our children to become their authentic selves unapologetically, and we as parents find who we truly are among the process.” 
  ~Heather Vardon
