Swooping owls, devious cats, and something called the "Big Man” with a mouse-eating machine! Sometimes it seems like trouble is a shadow that follows Maggie wherever she goes. Now the little brown-and-white deer mouse is in a strange building called a library, where she is surrounded by objects called books and mice who are gray. Can Maggie find a new home in the library, or will trouble continue to follow her everywhere?

Original Cover Price of 50c. "Twenty years has passed since Lord Mountford and his Lady disappeared somewhere on the high plateau of the Kaji country above the Mafa Falls where that river empties into the Neubari. Certainly no one believes that either of them could be alive. Yet mysterious rumors circulate from time to time, and at last, by chance, Tarzan comes upon a strange and desperate letter - written twenty years before - which tells of the fierce female warriors in the Kaji tribe, of the birth of a daughter to Lord and Lady Mountford, and of a fantastic diamond. And it warns any would-be rescuers against the irresistible hypnotic power the Kaji women exert over men entering their territory. Yet, to help a friend, Tarzan decides he must investigate this tribe and try to find the enslaved daughter of the long dead explorer."

Two tribes of frightful warrior women, the Kaji and the Zuli, war with one another for possession of the men they lure into slavery. Their mysterious hypnotic power comes for the magnificent gems they worship -- an emerald and a diamond, each as big as a human head. Will the Lord of the Jungle be immune to the strange power of the Kaji and the Zuli?

Robbie Darko is a magician. An old-school, pull-a-rabbit-out-of-your-hat-style magician. Robbie loves magic and he’s good at it―sort of. Despite his best efforts, passion, and practice, something always goes wrong with his tricks, landing Robbie in trouble. Enter crotchety Grandma Melvyn, who calls everyone “Trixie” and complains about everything. When Grandma Melvyn moves in and takes over his room, Robbie discovers that she was once an internationally renowned magician and learns about the heartache that turned her into a bitter woman. Against all odds, Robbie and Grandma Melvyn form an uneasy alliance to show the world―or at least the kids of Hobson Elementary School―that he is a true magician. Shortly after a successful talent show, Grandma Melvyn performs a final disappearing act, and Robbie learns a little about the true meaning of magic. Written with pitch-perfect middle-grade humor and unforgettable characters, this gem of a novel will stay with readers long after Dorko the Magnificent has taken his final bow. Praise for Dorko the Magnificent "A young would-be magician gets lessons in both stagecraft and life from a crusty elder... the supporting characters steal the show." ―Kirkus Reviews "Short chapters keep the story moving. Robbie has impressive determination, but it is Grandma Melvyn who is the star in this moving story." ―Booklist "Satisfying and enjoyable, Dorko will engage reluctant and voracious readers alike." ―School Library Journal " A thoroughly likable middle-grade novel, offering a blend of poignancy and giggle-worthy humor, this book is a solid back-to-school read." ―The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Literature circles would work well with this title that deals with alienation, friendship, family, reconciliation, and death." ―Library Media Connection
