  No one could have imagined that the frail, seven-year-old slave girl who arrived in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1761 would become the first published African American, achieving fame for her poetry in both America and England. Upon her arrival, Phillis quickly learned to read the Bible and other classic literature, publishing her first poem in 1767 when she was thirteen and a book of poetry in 1773. Her poetry encouraged freedom for all people, and she proved to a doubting generation that intelligence and creativity are not limited to a particular race.  Through Phillis's story, young readers will learn the importance of trusting God's plan while standing up for justice and the good of other human beings.

  In this winter-warming Spid the Spider adventure, Spid and friends visit the Highlands. What sets this adventure apart is its unique blend of entertainment and education for children aged 4-10 years. While delivering laughs and thrills, it also reimagines aspects of late 13th and early 14th-century Scottish history, in particular, a spidery tale involving Robert the Bruce. In the story, it is a very long way from Spider Webdon to Glenthistle. But after reading about King Robert the Spid of Glenthistle in a history book, Spid decides to visit his cousin, Hamish McSpid, who lives there. However, Spid and his friends have hardly arrived when strange things begin to happen. Of course, the fearsome monster of Loch Monroe is nothing more than a legendary beast … Or is it …? The story features two songs: ‘Hamish McSpid’ and ‘The Water King’. -‘The Ballad of Hamish McSpid’ is a folk song in the Scottish music tradition. It has a stirring violin accompaniment.-‘The Water King’ is a tub-thumping tune that celebrates and warns about the ‘guardian’ of the loch. “I am the Water King, I listen to the rain and sing, I am the king of everything, cross me and feel my sting”.

  Twelve-year-old Caroline Kline doesn’t believe in miracles. Not after her mom died, and certainly not after her family lost everything in Hurricane Emma. All Caroline wants to do is fit in at school, make some friends, and, above all else, just be normal. 
  But when Caroline takes a job walking Denver, her neighbor’s dog, her plans quickly get turned completely upside down. As it turns out, Denver is no ordinary dog: Not only can he talk—and not like bark-bark but in actual English—but worse than that, Denver tells Caroline that he’s been sent from the heavens with a message just for her. It’s up to Caroline to find a way to bring belief back to the world. 
  From acclaimed children’s author Iva-Marie Palmer comes a hilarious and heartwarming new tale about miracles, faith of all types, and the good that connects us all.

  This fifteenth Spid the Spider adventure will inspire children, especially budding bakers and entrepreneurs everywhere.  In the story, Bid dreams of setting up her own artisan bakery though she faces numerous set-backs in turning her dream into reality. With grit, determination, and Spid’s help, she learns from the setbacks and finds a way to succeed.  It’s a fun-filled story that also educates by encouraging a ‘growth mindset’. Baking is increasingly seen as a fun, creative activity that families and children can do together. This sense of involvement and creativity aligns perfectly in this latest Spid the Spider adventure. The story also aligns with the global phenomena and cultural touchstones of The Great British Bake Off (GBBO) and The Apprentice.  
  This audiobook features two songs: ‘Dreams’ and ‘Honey Bee Cakes’. These further immerse children in the story.  ‘Dreams’ is a motivational song with a ‘growth-mindset’ message; “Don’t get down, you can turn it around, your plans are sound, and you can rebound”. ‘Honeybee Cakes’ has a sunny-feel-good-calypso-Caribbean vibe, with fabulous rising harmonies. “Honey bee, honey bee, honey bee cakes” 
  Spid is a role model for children. He’s a hard-working, cool, and funny spider, who makes mistakes, but learns from them. He helps children embrace what psychologists call a ‘growth mindset’ - a determination to better oneself and succeed. All books are supported by free parent and teacher resources to entertain and inspire children, helping them learn. These include a honeybee cake recipe and instructions to make a bee hotel.
