  When a Halloween attraction turns out to be actually haunted, it’s up to twelve-year-old Clair and her friends to uncover the secrets of the ghost. But Clair has a secret of her own. She can talk to the ghost. And it’s angry. Can she help the ghost before anyone else gets hurt? 
  Being the new kid in middle school is always tough. For twelve-year-old, naturally shy Clair, it’s a nightmare. She’s not just battling frizzy curls and awkwardness. She’s grieving the loss of her beloved grandmother and has just moved in with an aunt she never knew she had. When Aunt Cleo, an event planner, is tasked with turning the local haunted house, Hamilton House, into a Halloween attraction, Clair discovers a family secret. The women in Clair’s family can communicate with ghosts. And Hamilton House is crawling with restless spirits. Something sinister lurks in the shadows. It’s powerful. Angry. And it’s threatening Clair. But she’s not alone. As she navigates her new life, she’s making new friends, including a boy who also hears ghosts. The key to saving Hamilton House—and herself—lies in uncovering the ghost’s identity and tragic past. Clair’s grandmother knew how to help ghosts cross over, but the secret died with her. As danger lurks, Clair races to help the ghost before someone else gets hurt. Can she keep her gift a secret and learn to trust her new friends . . . or will her past mistakes catch up with her?

  “Rolo became so real to me… I loved every character.” — Online Book Club  
  The cats have overthrown the hoomans! Rolo hopes to find his hooman ancestors when he lands on his ancient homeworld, Earth. But instead, the aloof feline bureaucats throw him in the pound. He escapes and hides on an airship, where he meets Ailey, a quirky girl with a troubled past. She offers to help Rolo find his people in the lost city of Zorx if he helps her run away. But bounty hunters are on their tail — a cranky hairless cat and foolishly philosophical apes. With help from a one-eyed alley cat and a fortune-teller elephant, Rolo and Ailey must find where they truly belong in this catopia — a world where all animals are equal, but cats are more equal than others. A smart, hilarious, and genuinely touching tale of runaways, resilience, and family. And cats.

  Listeners will be intrigued and inspired by these true stories of 20th Century Americans whose gifts transformed the world. Journalists, musicians, scientists, poets, a computer genius, and a president – all of them struggled and went on to great achievements. Now Jim Weiss brings you their stories.  Nellie Bly, the pioneering woman journalist whose breathtaking adventures literally took her around the world. Navy Admiral Grace Hopper, the quotable computer genius who led the way into the age of high technology. George Gershwin, who composed musical masterpieces, and his lyricist friend, E.Y. Harburg (The Wizard of Oz and more). Langston Hughes, whose belief in possibilities drove him to overcome racism and write immortal poetry. Charles Steinmetz, the scientific genius with a giant heart lodged in a body four feed tall. Harry Truman, whose boyhood readings in history later guided his own history-making decisions as President of the United States.  These stories will have you shaking your head in wonder at the vast (and vastly entertaining) variety of ways in which humans can strive for greatness.
