  From the New York Times–bestselling Goosebumps series, a tween boy accidentally turns back time on an antique clock and now every day he is year younger.  
   
  Tara the Terrible. That’s what Michael Webster calls his bratty little sister. She loves getting Michael in trouble. Making his life miserable. Things couldn’t get any worse. 
   
  Then his father brings home the antique cuckoo clock. It’s old. It’s expensive. And Dad won’t let anyone touch it.  
   
  Seems like the perfect opportunity to finally get his little sister in trouble for a change. But when Michael fiddles with the clock, hoping to make it look like Tara has damaged it, he unlocks a strange spell. A dangerous spell. A spell that causes Michael to get younger and younger and younger. . . . 
   
  Poor Michael. He should have listened to his dad. Because if he doesn’t figure out how to stop traveling back in time, he might have bigger problems than an annoying sister. . . .

But on his way to the palace, he falls from his horse, getting his clothes hopelessly muddy. Jonathan finds that he needs powerful help if he is to stand before the king. This edition of The Priest with Dirty Clothes includes all–new illustrations by Justin Gerard and a new “For the Parents” section to help them bring out the truths of the book for their children.

  A cinematic tale of passion, war, loyalty, betrayal, and retribution “These events I relate are the living seeds, and they will bear bloody fruit, I promise.” So says Ulysses, King of Ithaca, as he recounts the origins of the Trojan War. Renowned Greek mythologist Bernard Evslin masterfully depicts the ten-year war: its beginnings rooted in discord among the gods; the seduction of the famed beauty Helen of Troy; and the spectacular development of the Trojan Horse, Ulysses’ cunning ploy to win the war. Evslin brings to life the dramatic twists and turns of this classic tale of human folly, mortal heroism, and the brutality and brilliance that have come down through the ages.
