A story of a hobo mouse that lived more than one hundred years ago and his journey on a famous Christmas Eve. A detour in his destination put him in a home where he wasn't supposed to be and where he went unnoticed by its occupants. The magic of this special Christmas Eve would be one he would never forget and a surprise for all who learn of his story. Children's book reviewer Jennifer LB Leese highly recommends A MAGICAL CHRISTMAS EVE FOR JO-JO THE HOBO MOUSE giving it 4 stars out of 5. "Told in rhyme," she writes, "A MAGICAL CHRISTMAS EVE FOR JO-JO THE HOBO MOUSE is a delightful Christmas story about a little traveling mouse named Jo-Jo. "A MAGICAL CHRISTMAS EVE FOR JO-JO THE HOBO MOUSE isn't a story full of hair-raising horror, or life-threatening danger, but it is a story full of Christmas cheer, and magical moments. This book is sure to be a new holiday favorite for many little folks and their families.

It has adorable hand drawn illustrations that will make the reader smile. The cheery drawings work well with the whimsical text. "

The Wonder City of Oz (1940) is the thirty-fourth in the series of Oz books created by L. Frank Baum and his successors, and the first written and illustrated solely by John R. Neill. With The Wonder City of Oz, Neill introduced a change in tone that continued through his subsequent books. Neill's Emerald City has skyscrapers and gas stations. Normally inanimate objects act alive: houses talk and fight, shoes sing (they have tongues), and clocks run. Jenny Jump captures a leprechaun named Siko Pompus (apparently a pun on "psychopomp") and forces him to make her into a fairy; but he only does half the job before escaping. Jenny then jumps to Oz using her half-fairy gifts. She lands in the carriage of Princess Ozma during a parade - and quickly expresses her desire to be a queen herself. Her ambition lures her into running against Ozma in an Ozlection to become ruler of the Land of Oz.

And he's prepared to do anything to get hold of it and stop Jake before he has the chance to destroy him, his Network and his dreams.
