Synopsis

The Jungle Book is a collection of stories by English author Rudyard Kipling. The tales in the book are fables, using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons. The verses of The Law of the Jungle, for example, lay down rules for the safety of individuals, families and communities. Kipling put in them nearly everything he knew or "heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle." Other readers have interpreted the work as allegories of the politics and society of the time. The best-known of them are the three stories revolving around the adventures of an abandoned "man cub" Mowgli who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. The most famous of the other stories are probably "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi", the story of a heroic mongoose, and "Toomai of the Elephants", the tale of a young elephant-handler.

    Christopher Rabbit turned the pages of the Bible, but it was getting dark and quite hard to read. Caravan Bear fetched an oil lamp. Whitby and Hector drew nearer.
     
    "Some wise men had heard about the birth of Jesus," Christopher Rabbit said. "They wanted to see him..."
     
    Caravan Bear once again hitches up Hector the horse to the brightly painted gypsy-style caravan and, with Whitby the dog and Christopher Rabbit, sets off in search of new adventures.
     
    Enjoy Rabbit's storytelling along the way, interrupted by frequent questions from the travellers and other animals they meet. Do you think Jesus knew he was God's son when he was twelve? Why did Jesus want John to baptize him? Did Jesus like being famous? Why didn't Pilate release Jesus?
     
    The Animals' Caravan has echoes of children's classics such as The Wind in the Willows and Alice in Wonderland, as the caravan travellers form a great friendship on their journey together.

    After a summer of feeling out of place at a fancy witch school, Hasani can’t wait to get back to the peace and normalcy of Riverbend Middle, where she knows all the rules and is destined to be captain of the Mathletes. There are a few little hiccups to work out—like how she’s going to tell her best  
    friend that she’s a witch—but even though the other two members of Hasani’s coven have joined her friend group and her school, there’s no reason to think that eighth grade won’t be smooth sailing … That is, until her former friend (and fellow witch) LaToya shows up. 
     
    LaToya is obviously up to something—beyond just turning all of Hasani’s friends against her. Strange things begin happening around the school, and Hasani is sure that LaToya is to blame. However, when Miss Lafleur comes to investigate the magic, she isn’t convinced that LaToya could have caused all  
    this chaos on her own—so Hasani sets out to prove it, and heads to the magic market, 3Thirteen, to find the tools she needs to do so. 
     
    But with all her focus on proving she’s right and learning more about her magic, is Hasani losing sight of the people and things that are most important to her?

    When a newly orphaned boy with a violin shows up in a small town, his unnique perspective transforms everyone. 
    When David comes on the scene, The Holly family, and much of the town, have done things for so long they don't even realize they are in a rut. David's innocence and naivete bring with it his own set of assumptions, opinions, and expectations. Because of the care his father had taken to keep him from the 'bad' – or painful – things in life, there is so much he can't even begin to fathom at first. The collision of these two worlds is what drives this story onward. David had never experienced poverty or wealth as most would think of it. 
    Join David as he discovers the world. 
    Originally published in 1916
