The Cuckoo Clock of Doom

R. L. Stine

Synopsis

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. . . .

The Doldrums and the Helmsley Curse

Nicholas Gannon

The stand-alone sequel to The Doldrums, which the New York Times called “a dreamy charmer of a book,” is a second tour-de-force by author-illustrator Nicholas Gannon.
It brims with the spirit of exploration and celebrates the bond of friendship. The exquisite hardcover package features Gannon’s distinctive full color full-page art throughout, as well as black-and-white spot illustrations. The Doldrums and the Helmsley Curse is a timeless tale and a beautiful gift for a young reader.
Archer Helmsley’s grandparents—famous explorers who went missing on an iceberg two years ago—are finally coming home. Archer is overjoyed, but he may be the only one. Rumors are flying that Archer’s grandparents were never really abandoned on the iceberg; that they’re making it all up. Archer knows that the rumors are false. With his best friends, Oliver and Adélaïde, and their new neighbor, Kana, Archer sets out during a snowstorm to rescue his grandparents’ reputation.
In the tradition of Roald Dahl, Lemony Snicket, and Brian Selznick, Nicholas Gannon’s wildly imaginative world of The Doldrums and the Helmsley Curse is packed with sly humor, an undeniably charming cast of characters, and the thrill of discovering secrets and adventures right in your own backyard.
With approximately twenty pieces of full color full-page artwork, as well as spot illustrations, and deft, literary writing, Nicholas Gannon once again creates a fully realized world and a story to sink into and explore. “Irresistible.”—Booklist
