  Meet Fisher Bas: 12 years-old, growth-stunted, a geeky science genius, and son of the Nobel Prize-winning creators of the Bas-Hermaphrodite-Sea-Slug-Hypothesis. No surprise: Fisher isn't exactly the most popular kid in his middle-school, tormented daily by the beefy, overgrown goons he calls The Vikings. But he senses relief when he comes upon the idea of cloning himself—creating a second Fisher to go to school each day while he stays at home playing video games and eating cheetos with ketchup. It's an ingenious plan that works brilliantly, until Fisher's clone turns out to be more popular than him—and soon after gets clone-napped by the evil scientist Dr. Xander. Can Fischer save his clone in time, or will his whole plan be exposed?

  A holiday story that is sure to warm the hearts and inspire the imaginations of readers of all ages—from the Land of the Lost and Days of Our Lives actor.   Set mostly inside of Santa’s magical red sack, the action takes place in a land that most of us would call make-believe. However, for one orphaned boy named Albert, this place becomes very real. Wandering the streets of nineteenth-century London on Christmas Eve, Albert seeks warmth and finds it in a red, velvety sack. When he crawls in to sleep, he expects to dream of happiness and love, but ends up discovering something quite different.   Young Albert enters the magical realm of Santa’s great red sack and is welcomed into this fantasy world by a host of happy toys, waiting to be given to grateful children on Christmas Day. However, Albert soon learns that he has not left the danger of the outside world behind. A diabolical toy, known only as No-Name, is determined to stop Christmas. He and the other “Garbles” are snatching the smiles of Albert’s new friends. It’s up to Albert, who is mistaken for a toy, to stop the ever more desperate war.   Wesley Eure’s imaginative writing and Ronald G. Paolillo’s full-color artistic renderings give each character a special breath of life as they cross the pages. The Red Wings of Christmas is sure to become a family holiday classic to be shared season after season.

  Celebrate Christmas and the Lone Star State with this 1950s classic that puts a spin on the Clement C. Moore classic. This clever, Texas-sized, Texas-style tale has entertained audiences for more than forty years. A Western Santa Claus-decked out in Levis, ten-gallon Stetson, cowboy vest, and with a bandana around his neck-makes his Christmas journey on a buckboard piled high with presents.  Swooping in over the prairie to the amazement of sleepy residents and jackrabbits alike, a plump, jovial Santa parks his buckboard outside a peaceful ranch house. From boots stuffed with gifts to the faithful “hosses” pulling his “sleigh,” it’s a Christmas tale rich in Texas tradition and language.
