  It causes them to always sit on on their bums. 
  When they sit on their bums, they don’t do their jobs, 
  So no one’s out pruning with their thingamabobs. 
  This causes the ecosystem to all fall apart, 
  So tune in to learn how they make a fresh start!

  "A sure-fire hit for horse lovers!"—Kirkus 
    
  Presley and the Impossible Dream is the first book in the middle grade Windy Creek Stables series set at a rural Virginia riding school—a 21st-century Saddle Club, full of authentic detail, realistic drama, and tons of heart. 
    
  Presley's life is pretty great—she has a loving family, friends at school, and plenty of rambunctious rescue pets. There's just one little problem … She's never gotten to ride a horse. And her mom has banned her from ever, ever, ever getting on one. 
    
  And sure, Presley knows riding can be a little dangerous, and a little expensive, but she’s loved horses for as long as she can remember. She’s read every book in the library about horses and horsemanship, she watches professional horse competitions on the internet, and she’s always dreamed about learning to ride. So when she gets the opportunity to tag along with her stepdad on a vet visit to Windy Creek Stables, she jumps at the chance. 
    
  And even after a surprise run in with Harper, a popular girl who's never given Presley a second glance, Windy Creek is everything she thought it would be … except, well, maybe it's a little messy? Clean and dirty saddle pads are all jumbled together, and there’s a tangle of bridles hanging on a hook in the corner. Which gives Presley the perfect idea: In exchange for cleaning stalls and helping around the barn after school, Tracie, the stable owner, will give her lessons—if she can get her mom to agree to the deal.

  When young fans think of football, names like Messi, Ronaldo, Bellingham, Salah, Haaland, and Mbappé often come to mind. But there's an incredible story right here in our own backyard.  
  The Goals That Changed Australia by David Weiner isn’t a tale of fantasy, conjured up in imagination or played out on a PlayStation screen. This real-life adventure shares the incredible journey of Australia’s national teams, blending the stories of our Matildas and the Socceroos and their biggest stars into one compelling narrative. 
  Designed for readers from upper primary to teenage years – and maybe even their parents, it offers a fresh and engaging perspective on our football heritage. 
  With moments like Cortnee Vine’s and John Aloisi’s iconic penalties as its cornerstone, the book takes young fans on an exhilarating ride through the highs and lows of Australian football from 2006 to 2023, culminating in the home FIFA Women's World Cup that stopped a nation. It’s a celebration of our unique identity on the world stage—not just as a men’s or women’s team, but as a united football family. 
  This is Australian football's story, told for the first time in a way that young fans can connect with—a tale of resilience, pride, and the love of the game that runs deep in our veins, that aims to inspire the next generation to cheer for the green and gold with the same enthusiasm as they do for the world's biggest stars. 
  Suitable for readers from upper primary school.
