Out in the Park one day, children, I met a little boy not bigger than you are, who told me that he liked stories about a boy and a dog and the things they did together. He said that it must be a real boy and a real dog, and there must be other animals in the story, not great, big, fierce ones, but just neighborly ones-animals a boy might, perhaps, meet when he went for walks in the woods-and take pictures of and get to know. So this is the story of the way a real boy and a real dog spent their first summer in the real country; and the fun they had together.

"A recipe for happiness: four women, one medieval Italian castle, plenty of wisteria, and solitude as needed. The women at the center of The Enchanted April are alike only in their dissatisfaction with their everyday lives. They find each other-and the castle of their dreams-through a classified ad in a London newspaper one rainy February afternoon. The ladies expect a pleasant holiday, but they don't anticipate that the month they spend in Portofino will reintroduce them to their true natures and reacquaint them with joy. Now, if the same transformation can be worked on their husbands and lovers, the enchantment will be complete."

The author and illustrator, of What if...ZOMBIES Were Nice, is releasing each book as a chapter ultimately building toward a grand finale. The books are written using adolescent grunge language and humor. Short politics and actual science experiments are the nucleus within the pages of each book. Chocolate and Oranges is the first chapter of What if...ZOMBIES Were Nice. In this chapter you will find that The Great Panic Po of 2020 was something no one was ever prepared for. Zombies that didn't turn into a big black puddle of goop were taken to a secret location, by the military, where the trials of modification took place. Many years passed, and the secret decision for 'reintegration' occurred. The first zombie family released, into living society was placed in Texas, where a freaky friendship developed between a zombie boy and two bored eccentric children. As the trio's bond gets stronger, they make simple discoveries about themselves and learn more about The Great Panic Po of 2020. Stink, rot, and science string them together as they manage to find a formula that might keep their friend from falling apart!
