  There’s a rumour spreading quickly on the farm that triggers immediate emergency escape plans for this unknowing bunch of fruit and vegetables. And there’s a certain upcoming birthday to celebrate, but it’s too dangerous to stay on the farm. Where can they flee to? Make no mistake; this is a day full of twists and turns. Just how does an ordinary Saturday morning lead to an unexpected adventure of mysterious cave exploring? The fact that a beautiful creature is living all alone in such cold temperatures is intriguing, and so are those motionless objects…. Rapping, knocking, tapping, clapping, stomping – not to mention booming beats, spooky silence, eerie echoes, windy whistling, strange shadows and objects – all give this cave a creepy feel. Luckily, it doesn’t last, and it’s not long before the strains of music and birthday singing drown out those scary sounds.Join this cute bunch of Pentatonics and Diatonics as they journey from the farm to the mountains and then to the City. What else do they see along the way? These likeable little characters, renamed as the Chromatics, certainly have a lot to learn about themselves – and so do you! There’s fun, excitement, humour, adventure, and so much more, and don’t forget that Big Ride either!

  When a battle with death-dealing Skinners catapults Daine and her mentor, Numair, into the divine realms, the riddles of Daine’s past finally begin to reveal themselves. However, the pair must return to their beloved Tortall, for the kingdom is under attack and survival depends on Daine’s wild magic. 
  A harrowing journey across the divine realms leads Daine and Numair through danger to dragons; to a breathtaking confrontation with their great enemy Ozorne; and finally brings Daine face to face with the Great Gods, who will force the girl to make the most important decision of her life. 
  Filled with breathtaking peril, lightened by deft moments of comedy (wait till you meet the darkings!), The Realms of the Gods is a fitting conclusion to one of the great fantasy series of our time. An exclusive interview with Tamora Pierce about writing The Immortals Quartet concludes the recording.

  I'm shocked. 
  My dad just told me that my mother died. 
  DIED. 
  He should know that mothers don't die until they're old grandmothers. Is he lying to me? Is she dead or did she run away from me because of our fight? I miss my mom. My heart hurts. This can't be happening. 
  What am I going to do without my mom? How do I survive without my mom? 
  Dad says that I must move in with him, his wife, and his two kids. This can't be happening. And what about my art show? Mom encouraged me to paint. I can't do my art show without her! What am I going to do? 
  If my mom died, God must be punishing me. Or maybe he's not as good as everyone says. 
  Pastor Will says that God values my tears. I can't stop crying, but God hasn't given me my mom back yet. Maybe Pastor Will has been tricked and God isn't real, after all. c 
  Kirkus review says, "Steeped in Christianity, Templeton's story is likely to provide deep comfort to those who observe the faith and would prove an excellent resource for Christian youth groups. This Christian-centered story deftly limns the conflicting emotions of kids who have experienced loss."

He recounts in a simple but interesting way the exciting tales of lively characters of Norse Myhology: the one-eyed, raven-flanked god Odin, who cunningly pursues knowledge throughout the worlds and bestows among humanity the runic alphabet; the humanity-protecting god Thor, who persistently pursues his foes; the beautiful, feathered cloak-clad goddess Freya who rides to battle to choose among the slain;and numerous other deities.
