  Biplanes have been flying the mail in short hops all over the country—during daylight hours, when pilots can see where they’re going. But crashes are still too common, so lawmakers decide to cut funding for the U.S. Air Mail Service. 
   
  Outraged officials and pilots concoct a daring plan to save the service—a nonstop, coast-to-coast race—to prove that keeping mail in the air is the fastest way to move it across America. 
   
  But when a crash, exhaustion, and a snowstorm threaten the race, Jack Knight steps up. All he has to do is fly all night long. Through a blizzard. Over land he’s never covered. With a nearly empty fuel tank. 
   
  What could go wrong?

  Houdini: Master of Escape

  Harry Houdini, born Eric Weiss on March 24, 1874, was a legendary magician and escape artist who gained international fame for his daring and death-defying stunts, such as escaping from handcuffs, chains, and locked containers, often submerged underwater. His incredible physical strength, skill at manipulating locks, and next-level charitable acts made him a household name. 
  In addition to his escape acts, Houdini was a passionate debunker of fraudulent spiritualists and mediums. He believed that their tricks were performed using natural means—not ghostly manifestations or the ability to speak with the spirits. Houdini's crusade against fake spiritualists was so intense that he even conducted experiments to communicate with his wife after death, which ultimately failed. He continued to perform and innovate until his death on October 31, 1926, in Detroit, Michigan, leaving behind a legacy as one of the greatest magicians and escape artists of all time. 
  Never has a biography been so successful at making you feel like you are really there, reliving every moment with Harry and his wife, Bess. Whether you are a student needing information for a term paper, or simply someone who enjoys a riveting tale of gritty determination, Houdini: Master of Escape will provide you with what you need.

  Did you know that you have a little bit of dinosaur in you? 
  And it’s your cousin’s fault. She dared you to pitch a peanut high in the air and catch it in your mouth. You didn’t know it had a nitrogen atom that used to be in the egg of a Hadrosaurus. 
  This humorous story follows a nitrogen atom as it journeys from dry bones to your skull – and beyond! 
  The journey began with Book 1, A Little Bit of Dinosuar, which received a starred Kirkus review. It continued in Book 2, A Little Bit of THIS Dinosaur. In this new story, the amazing circle of life—or the conservation of mass—is again illustrated through a historical look at the Hadrosaurus dinosaur. 
  Sisters Elleen Hutcheson and Darcy Pattison team up again for a new adventure with the circle of life. Each still wonders why their mother taught them to throw food and catch it in their mouths.
