Sinopsis

A boy with light blue eyes that just about matched the slightly hazy June sky sat on the float below the town landing at Greenhaven, L. I., and stared thoughtfully across harbor and bay to where, two miles northward, the village of Johnstown stretched along the farther shore. He had a round, healthy, and deeply tanned face of which a short nose, many freckles, the aforementioned blue eyes, and a somewhat square chin were prominent features. There was, of course, a mouth, as well, and that, too, was prominent just now, for it was puckered with the little tune that the boy was softly whistling. Under a sailor’s hat of white canvas the hair was brown, but a brown that only escaped being red by the narrowest of margins. That fact was a sore subject with Toby Tucker.

NOTICE: Explosive content contained within. (Rebel boys and indomitable girls have always been a combustible combination.) 
All the signs of Fairy's unraveling were there: a strict rationing of pixie dust; the disappearance of a magical species; a reckless reliance on spies plucked from human orphanages. Annabelle was no orphan. Her father was perhaps the most infamous man in Childerbridge—and she’d never live down the shame of it, though she’d also never accept that the charges against him were true—not most of the time.  
She’ll have to go to the end of Never to prove what is true…about Never itself, about her father, and her own work-worn self.

Unusual and engaging holiday stories for young listeners. If you are familiar with Three Detail Stories, you know that there is a bedtime tradition at the Leither house. Itasca (8) and River (6) think of three details. Then Daddy Dude (who happens to be an English professor and creative writer) launches into an original story, made up on the spot, including those three details. Unlike our other collections, this audiobook has a theme: The holidays! Stories include a little boy who asks to visit Santa at the North Pole and gets a peach instead. Only this is no ordinary peach! Three kids go exploring the day before Thanksgiving. Deep inside a cave, they find evidence of grand feasts long, long ago. And 5-year-old friends learn about charity after an experiment to make their own lipstick out of fruit goes hilariously awry. Settle in for a respite from standard holiday fare with tales that engage young listeners, start conversations, improve vocabulary and delight in unexpected ways. This collection is designed with children 4 to 10 in mind.

Pete Kagen, a brilliant but imagination-starved troubleshooter, arrives on the Moon to find out why Earth’s costly rocketships are disappearing without a trace. He expects corruption, mismanagement, or military blunders—but instead encounters an eerie second sun in the sky, a mysterious homesteader growing impossible “crops,” and a lunar landscape hiding secrets far beyond human engineering. As Kagen digs deeper, his skepticism is tested by strange accidents, unexplained failures, and a man whose quiet isolation masks an extraordinary truth. 
The Homesteader showcases James Blish’s gift for blending scientific authenticity with sharp character insight. Blish, known for his precise prose and visionary ideas, brings readers into a tense, atmospheric mystery where logic and intuition collide on the Moon’s barren frontier. 
James Blish (1921–1975) was a major voice in mid-century science fiction, celebrated for elevating the genre with rigorous scientific thinking and literary craftsmanship. Best known for Cities in Flight and his influential Star Trek adaptations, Blish helped define the standards for “hard” science fiction while inspiring generations of writers to come. His stories remain essential reading for anyone drawn to speculative ideas grounded in possibility.
