Synopsis

Originally published in 1865, "Popular Romances of the West of England" is a complete collection of English fairy tales by Robert Hunt, a famous British mineralogist, as well as an antiquarian, an amateur poet, and an early pioneer of photography.

Excerpt from the Introduction
"...Sending my box forward to Liskeard by a van, my wanderings commenced; my purpose being to visit each relic of Old Cornwall, and to gather up every existing tale of its ancient people. Ten months were delightfully spent in this way; and in that period a large number of the romances and superstitions which are published in these volumes were collected, with many more, which have been weeded out of the collection as worthless."

    The Princess in Black meets Monsters, Inc. in this zany, heartwarming new series for early readers 4 to 8 years old! 
     
    Written by the acclaimed Corey Ann Haydu, the Zoomi and Zoe series explores the wonder and anxiety of life's first big transitions with warmth, whimsy, and plenty of silliness. 
     
    Zoe loves routine, her stuffed rhino Zoomi, and her best friend Kyla. When Kyla moves away, Zoe feels alone. Until somehow, she’s transported to a magical new world with just one sort-of-familiar face: Zoomi, who is suddenly very much real. 
     
    Zoomi loves adventure, zooming, and her best friend Moo. In her world, life is full of happy surprises, but one ritual is certain: when something hard happens, she’ll have a Tricky Turnaround. And when she does, a Happy Helpful Human from the “real” world will arrive to help her through it. 
     
    But when Zoe arrives, she doesn’t seem very happy. Or helpful. Or interested in the party Zoomi threw for her—complete with toothbrushes and a rainbow mud slide. In fact, Zoe may be navigating a Tricky Turnaround of her own. Can Zoomi and Zoe come together to help each other with the trickier parts of growing up, like saying goodbye to friends and making new ones?

    Book two in this fast-paced and exciting series for middle grade fantasy, mystery, and animal buffs. 
    Noah and his friends thought they had seen it all during their first journey into the Secret Zoo—but it was only the beginning. Now they must train to become Crossers, members of a secret society who freely travel to the Secret Zoo and back, helping to defend its borders. But now that the monstrous sasquatches are on the loose and the evil Shadowist is plotting destruction, will Noah, Megan, Ella, and Richie have what it takes to survive? 
    The author originally had the idea for The Secret Zoo when he was nine and wondered what would happen if zoo exhibits had secret doors that allowed kids to go inside—and the animals to come outside. He brings that sense of adventure and excitement to this story, making it a favorite for home and classroom reading along with such middle grade fantasy favorites as The One and Only Ivan.
