Synopsis

A young boy must slay Fafnir, a shape-shifting ogre who has transformed himself into a dragon Fafnir lives with his family in a fortress-like house deep in the forest. His father, descended from an archdemon, shares the secrets of the dark arts with Fafnir and his two brothers. Regnir, the eldest, is a deformed dwarf who lusts after gold and relies on his cunning to get it. Hungering only for food, Oter, the middle brother, can transform himself into a bird of prey. The shape-shifting Fafnir desires to be feared, and when Odin, king of the gods, sets a trap with a treasure that tempts every giant, ogre, and dwarf in his domain, Fafnir becomes a dragon. However, he is about to confront an even fiercer rival: a mortal named Siegfried. This adventure-filled Norse myth is a powerful story of magic, curses, doom, and destruction featuring an unlikely hero whose perils are only just beginning.

    Flaps is a young peacock butterfly with a challenge – a hole in her right wing. 
    Her father was a Storm Breaker, one of the special butterflies who help keep the planet’s weather balanced by flapping their wings in just the right places. But now, the winds of the world have grown wild and angry because humans have been unkind to nature. To restore balance, Flaps’ father flew to the legendary Cradle of Winds, a place said to hold the key to calming the storms. But he never returned. 
    Years later, a powerful storm nearly sweeps Flaps and her glowing firefly friend, Blinks, away. Realizing something must be done, Flaps decides she will journey to the Cradle of Winds to fix the weather herself, even with her damaged wing. 
    To find her way, Flaps visits Perla, a wise moth who knows the old stories. Perla tells her about an ancient legend: only a butterfly with a pure heart, riding on the back of a condor, can cross the highest mountains, flap its wings in the deepest valleys, and bring peace back to the weather. 
    Determined and brave, Flaps sets off on her quest, unaware that Blinks is secretly following her. Along the way, they meet new friends, overcome challenges, and discover that even the smallest creatures can make a big difference. 
    Can Flaps find the Cradle of Winds and bring calm to the storms? Her courage and heart will guide her through this great adventure!

    Autistic seventh-grader Maggie Weir loves spacecraft, but aerospace engineering isn’t the only thing that gives her butterflies: she’s got a secret crush on an eighth grader—the amazing, baton-twirling Tatum Jones. And they’ve just teamed up for an engineering contest! It might be the perfect chance  
    for Maggie to tell Tatum how she feels, except … 
     
    Tatum is focused on outshining her genius twin brother, and Maggie’s forgetfulness isn’t making a great impression. Still, there’s something about the quirky girl with a messy backpack that sets Tatum’s heart aflutter. But before they can finish designing a low-gravity cabinet, Maggie learns that her dad  
    wants to move to Houston. 
     
    Now, Maggie must choose: Does she follow her dad and her dreams of NASA? Or does she stay with her mom to be near Tatum? If the stars are meant to align between these two, they’ll both have to fully realize their feelings for each other before Maggie leaves forever. 
     
    This charming companion novel features delightful cameos from the first book, The Trouble with Robots, and compassionately explores themes of divorce, neglect, and sibling rivalry alongside an age-appropriate budding romance.
