“Paintings don’t just gobble people up without some explanation, or do they? 

	Hi there, I’m Tiger. Since moving to town, I’ve made a new friend, met a talking orange pig, and stumbled upon a magical picture frame! What, you don’t believe me? well, you would if you saw the hole that opened up in the picture and sucked my friend Luna and me in. Now we are inside the painting— being chased by a man man-eating tiger! 

If we don’t find a way out, we could be stuck in this jungle forever.”

Why Our Sons Turn Violent and How We Can Save Them

"Remarkable. What sets Lost Boys apart from the ordinary lament is the author's palpable sense of care and compassion."--The Washington Post Book World

Our national consciousness has been altered by haunting images of mass slaughters in American high schools, carried out by troubled young boys with guns. It's now clear that no matter where we live or how hard we try as parents, our children are likely to be going to school with boys who are capable of getting guns and pulling triggers. What has caused teen violence to spread from the urban war-zones of large cities right into the country's heartland? And what can we do to stop this terrifying trend?

James Garbarino, Ph.D., Cornell University professor and nationally noted psychologist, insists that there are things that we, both as individuals and as a society, can do. In a richly anecdotal style he outlines warning signs that parents and teachers can recognize, and suggests steps that can be taken to turn angry and unhappy boys away from violent action. Full of insight, vivid individual portraits, practical advice and considered hope, this is one of the most important and original books ever written about boys.

Can Captain Underpants and his drawers hold up the pressure from three massive, tentacled space aliens (in disguise) who are on a mission to enslave the whole planet? 
It’s time to probe a little further and find out in this all-new, wedgier alien adventure of Captian Underpants!

Captian Underpants and the Invasion of the Incredibly Naughty Cafeteria Ladies From Outer Space (and the Subsequent Assault of the Equally Evil Lunchrom Zombie Nerds)

Two boys--one black, one white--are best friends in the segregated 1960s South in this picture book about friends sticking together through thick and thin.

John Henry swims better than anyone I know.
He crawls like a catfish,
blows bubbles like a swamp monster,
but he doesn't swim in the town pool with me.
He's not allowed.

Joe and John Henry are a lot alike. They both like shooting marbles, they both want to be firemen, and they both love to swim. But there's one important way they're different: Joe is white and John Henry is black, and in the South in 1964, that means John Henry isn't allowed to do everything his best friend is. Then a law is passed that forbids segregation and opens the town pool to everyone. Joe and John Henry are so excited they race each other there...only to discover that it takes more than a new law to change people's hearts.

After her husband's death, a young widow with a faithful Great Dane must decide between two men -- but as new love blossoms, jealousy turns deadly in this suspenseful New York Times bestseller.

Julie Barenson's young husband left her two unexpected gifts before he died - a Great Dane puppy named Singer and the promise that he would always be watching over her. Now four years have passed. Still living in the small town of Swansboro, North Carolina, twenty-nine-year-old Julie is emotionally ready to make a commitment to someone again. But who?

Should it be Richard Franklin, the handsome, sophisticated engineer who treats her like a queen? Or Mike Harris, the down-to-earth nice guy who was her husband's best friend? Choosing one of them should bring her more happiness than she's had in years. Instead, Julie is soon fighting for her life in a nightmare spawned by a chilling deception and jealousy so poisonous that it has become a murderous desire...

In addition, this volume features the novels Sylvie and Bruno and Sylvie and Bruno Concluded, the classic nonsense poem The Hunting of the Snark, and the full contents of the poetry collection Phantasmagoria--all timeless works that reflect the cleverness and ingenuity that were Carroll's unique gifts.

Social Studies

Third Edition

Usable for an intro, theory or reference source, this book is organized into 68 chapters with 41 tables that follow the content sequence of most intro sociology textbooks. Each chapter averages about three pages and has 10 laws. None of the 700 laws are laws in the legal sense; instead, all the laws can be viewed as factors, patterns or principles that clarify a given social science topic.
 
A few of the topics addressed include "laws" relating to crime, poverty, prejudice, marriage, good parenting, life expectancy, global warming, early Christianity, the future of the U.S., and over 50 other topics. Chapter topics are on the opposite side of this page.


Features: 
A unique approach to current sociology
Easy access to specific content and glossary
Tables explain principles visually
Per 1,000 words, perhaps more science focus than any other intro text 
Per 1,000 words, perhaps more 2014 and 2015 data than
any other intro text
