  • Morgy Makes His Move

    Maggie Lewis, Michael Chesworth

    Hardcover (Houghton Mifflin Books for Children, Oct. 25, 1999)
    Morgy hates being the new kid in a new school in a new town in a new state. He wishes he were back in California. Here in Massachusetts he has to contend with Ferguson, who's older and seems to have singled out Morgy to pick on. Ferguson is even there when Morgy tries to learn how to play hockey, and he never misses a chance to dump Morgy on the ice. And hockey becomes even more humiliating when Morgy is demoted from the ten-and-unders to the seven-and-unders, where he's the oldest kid on the team.Each day brings more things to get used to, from weird Boston accents to surviving the blizzard of the century. Gradually, though, Morgy begins to figure out life in Puckett Corner and learns that he just might fit in after all.

  • The Day of Doom: Or, a Poetical Description of the Great and Last Judgement; With Other Poems; Also a Memoir of the Author, Autobiography, and Sketch ... by Rev. Cotton Mather

    Michael Wigglesworth

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, April 5, 2018)
    Excerpt from The Day of Doom: Or, a Poetical Description of the Great and Last Judgement; With Other Poems; Also a Memoir of the Author, Autobiography, and Sketch of His Funeral Sermon by Rev. Cotton MatherThe author of this book, whose wand had summoned up such images of terror, was neither a cynic nor a misanthrope, though sickness, which generally brings out these dispositions where they exist, had long been his doom. His attenuated frame and feeble health were joined to genial manners and, though subject to fits of despondency, he seems generally to have maintained a cheerful temper, so much so that some of his friends believed his ills to be imaginary.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Morgy's Musical Summer

    Maggie Lewis, Michael Chesworth

    Hardcover (HMH Books for Young Readers, April 21, 2008)
    Morgy thinks Outlook Music Camp is a long way to go to get good at the trumpet. It’s almost in Canada! But Colonel Profundo gave him a “promising beginner” scholarship. His friends, Byron and Clara, are coming, too. Dad says, “It’s not just for trumpet, it’s summer camp and you’ll love it.”Dad’s right but he doesn’t know the half of it. There’s canoeing, swimming, soccer and wild games of musical chairs. But there’s also Damian, oboe prodigy and bully. And Byron and Clara are in band while Morgy’s stuck in orchestra, playing a solo. What is Morgy supposed to do if he can barely read music, he misses his dog Dante and his cat Pancake, his best friend is in love with their trumpet teacher, and he sees soldiers in three-cornered hats sneaking through the camp at night? Keep practicing, of course! First, Morgy made his move, then he survived fourth-grade hockey. Now, Broot-taroot!—Morgy goes away to camp and comes home with a song of his own. Maggie Lewis’s “Morgy’s Musical Summer” is a camp novel to write home about.
