    After writing his first book, Oliver is kind of a celebrity around school. But when he gets caught in a cafeteria catastrophe involving some seriously explosive cherry cobbler, he quickly goes from being the “funny science kid” to one of the “Epic Barf kids.” Oliver needs to restore his reputation—and winning the Science Fair seems like the perfect way for everyone to forget about the whole barf thing.  
     
    There’s just one obstacle: Ana Lía Quintero, who wins every year. 
     
    Luckily, Oliver has the help of his geoscientist aunt (even though she’s a little, um, quirky). To have any chance of defeating his archnemesis, he’ll have to learn all about volcano burps and bacteria farts, how Earth’s layers are basically like a boba tea drink, and how school cliques and the solar system have a lot in common. 
     
    With laugh-out-loud humor, Oliver’s Great Big Universe: Volcanoes Are Hot! follows an eleven-year-old who’s taking on the whole universe—if he can survive middle school first.

    The states comprising the Northeast have a long history as some of the earliest colonies in the New World. Their rich folklore and colorful history is woven into the national identity, and destinations such as Plymouth Rock, the lighthouses of Maine, and Vermont’s autumn leaves are quintessential symbols of the United States. But the Northeast has always had a dark side, a strange side. Monsters and ghosts lurk in its woods and old houses, and strange monuments that may be from a forgotten civilization puzzle local investigators. All the while, the early inhabitants themselves were always superstitious, as evidenced by history’s most famous witch trials at Salem. 
    The American South has given birth to many of the nation’s great stories and legends. From the earliest Colonial times, it’s been a place of mystery, replete with disappearing colonies and strange apparitions in the woods, but the South’s long and proud history has always had a darker, and stranger, side to it. In fact, one of America’s most famous mysteries was its first. Future settlements in the area would survive and start to flourish, and that would bring more mystery and unexplained phenomena. Tales of monsters and ghosts lurking in its woods and old houses, and strange monuments that may be from a forgotten civilization, puzzle local investigators. 
    The Midwest is rich in history and folklore, and it has more than its fair share of mysteries, too. Strange creatures, Native American legends, haunted houses, and unexplained phenomena are rife in these states, and this book will uncover just a sample of the countless strange tales of America’s heartland.

    Henry the Hidden Hero didn’t always see himself as brave or special. In fact, he often felt small and unsure, with feelings he didn’t quite. Everything changed when Henry met Willy (Wings of Willy Series) ~ a wise butterfly who taught him how to recognize, name, and feel his emotions, and how to use his voice to share what was in his heart. 
    With gentle guidance, Willy showed Henry words like “I can” and “I feel”, and helped him see that speaking his truth brings real power. Together they laughed, cried, and discovered the strength that comes from honesty. And as Henry’s wings began to open wide, so did his courage. “I do have a voice! I do have a way! And maybe I’m meant to help others someday.” 
    Now, Henry is on a mission to do just that. In this heartwarming story, Henry flies from place to place ~ helping a firefly, caterpillar, grasshopper, bumblebee, and ladybug discover their voices, unfold their wings, and shine their light. Through magical adventures and gentle lessons, Henry teaches that true strength begins with knowing ourselves and trusting what’s inside. 
    Let this book spark your own journey! 
    Join Henry’s mission. Help ignite the light in one another. The world shines brighter when we lift each other up.
