Once you find out your mother is an alien, what ISN’T possible?! That’s what 12-year-old Anne and 10-year-old Atticus Reade want to know. Minutes after learning their mother is a Farbookonian human, not an Earth human — making them half-alien — they’re whisked off to sleep-away camp in New Jersey for protection, each with a tiny Globot on one shoulder.They do their best to fit in at camp, but their sheltered existence in the Midwest didn’t prepare them for this. Everything is new to them, and at every step, their unpredictable Farbookonian talents threaten to give them away.Just as they settle in, a broadcast on the Rec Hall TV shakes things up, and they begin to see what’s truly strange about camp. As they race to solve a mystery involving ghost stories, quirky campers, a bizarre camp director, and a secret connection they share with their friends, only one thing is clear: They’re not safe.

Long, long ago, on the Island of Hawaii, there lived two beautiful goddesses... So begins the retelling of the classic Hawaiian legend--a tale of fire and ice--when Pele ventured off her fiery mountaintop to make mischief and challenge Poliahu to a sled race down the snowy slopes of Mauna Kea. It is a story about the power of nature, the power of wills, the power of skill, and an explanation of why the Big Island, to this day, is an island of contrasts.

Celebrated storyteller Fiona Collins has collected the best-loved stories from the misty, magical mountains, rushing rivers and green rolling hills of North Wales. In this treasure trove of tales you will meet dragons, giants, wizards, witches, and monsters – and of course the Tylwyth Teg, which is the Welsh name for the fairies. Retelling each story in her engaging style, Fiona presents humorous tales, clever tales, and enchanting fairy tales, which will be particularly enjoyed by young readers who wish to be transported to a parallel world of magic and adventure.
