  From the New York Times–bestselling author. “A rousing, slightly surreal tale of rescue and redemption, this effort will appeal to animal lovers everywhere.” —Kirkus Reviews All Hal had ever wanted was a dog. “Never!” cries his mother. “Think of the mess, the scratch-marks, the puddles on the floor.” But on the morning of Hal’s 10th birthday, the unbelievable happens. He’s allowed to choose a dog at Easy Pets, a rent-a-pet agency (a fact his parents keep from him). The moment he sees the odd-looking terrier, he knows he’s found a friend for life. But no one tells Hal that Fleck must be returned. When Hal wakes up on Monday morning, Fleck is gone. If dog and boy are to stay together they’ll have to run away . . . From the renowned Eva Ibbotson comes a tale laced with humor and brimming over with heart, stunning in its beauty of the love of all things dog.“Ibbotson’s final book is a story with the heart of Lassie and the satirical bite of Roald Dahl . . . as funny as it is satisfying.” —Booklist “Readers who have grown to love Ibbotson’s bighearted heroes and larger-than-life adventure stories will relish this final novel . . . In true Ibbotson form, the lives of unlikely acquaintances are colorfully threaded together.” —Publishers Weekly “In this—her last book—Ibbotson maintained her flair for characterization, madcap action, and a rollicking plotline . . . This satisfying novel combines humor with heart to great effect—a lovely parting gift from the masterful storyteller.” —School Library Journal

  There’s a river outside my window. Where will it take me? 
   
  So begins the imaginary journey of a child inspired by the view outside her bedroom window: a vast river winding through a towering city.

This lush, immersive book by award-winning picture book creator Marc Martin will delight readers of all ages by taking them on a transcendent and aspirational journey through an imaginative landscape. 
   
  “A subtle study of how imagination allows children to safely explore the unknown without ever leaving home.” —Publishers Weekly

  A delightful children’s book “filled with surreal gags about prepositions and adverbs, cheerful absurdity, and down the rabbit hole-style musings” (School Library Journal). One day, a few minutes after Once Upon a Time, a bear awakes to find he has lost something very important: himself! He sets out into the Fabulous Forest to find himself, using only a few clues scrawled on a piece of paper: the bear he's looking for is a nice bear; he is a happy bear; and he’s very handsome too! These sound like pretty good qualities to Bear, and so begins his memorable journey. With the help of critters like the Convenience Cow, the Lazy Lizard, the Turtle Taxi, and the Penultimate Penguin, Bear finds that he himself is just what he’s been looking for all along: a nice, happy bear—and handsome too! “A melding of Phantom Tollbooth logic, Alice in Wonderland whimsy, and peppered with a cast of unforgettable Little Prince like characters . . . You can’t help fall into the imaginative world of this delightfully clever picture book.” —BookBloom “Irresistible.” —O, The Oprah Magazine “Gentle wordplay and Lewis Carroll-like paradoxes . . . Everything is new to Bear, and his discoveries will delight readers.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Erlbruch's playful, distinctive illustrations . . . are sublime.” —Kirkus Reviews “Young readers with a philosophical nature and an appreciation for provocative silliness will be especially gratified by Bear's self-discovery . . . The Fabulous Forest effectively evokes a fairy tale feel, and Bear, a portly fellow with huge eyes, a bright red mouth, and colorful flecks in his black fur, is loveable at first sight.” —New York Journal of BooksPublishers Note: This is the flowable text e-book edition, optimized for e-ink readers that cannot support fixed layout e-books.
