Pippi Longstocking meets Heidi meets Anne Shirley in this tale of an irrepressible girl in a mountain village who navigates unexpected changes with warmth and humor.

Speed and self-confidence, that's Astrid's motto. Nicknamed "the little thunderbolt," she loves to spend her days racing down the hillside on her sled, singing loudly as she goes, and visiting Gunnvald, her grumpy, septuagenarian best friend and godfather, who makes hot chocolate from real chocolate bars. She just wishes there were other children to share her hair-raising adventures with. But Astrid's world is about to be turned upside down by two startling arrivals to the village of Glimmerdal: first a new family, then a mysterious, towering woman who everyone seems to know but Astrid. It turns out that Gunnvald has been keeping a big secret from his goddaughter, one that will test their friendship to its limits. Astrid is not too happy about some of these upheavals in Glimmerdal -- but, luckily, she has a plan to set things right.

Secret rooms, eerie curses, forgotten caves. Could you survive a week in the Underlook Hotel?

 

Aspiring engineer Suzy Hess is invited to the famous Underlook Hotel, domain of the reclusive horror writer Jack Axworth, in the mountains above her hometown of Estes Park, Colorado. Suzy thinks she's there to tutor Jack's son, Danny, but instead she finds herself investigating a local curse that threatens the landmark hotel.



With the help of Elijah Jones, an amateur filmmaker who thought he'd been asked to make a film about the so-called King of Horror; Rena Hallorann, the hotel's caretaker; and Danny, who knows more than he's letting on, Suzy sets out to solve the mystery at the heart of the Underlook, one that holds the town of Estes Park in its grasp. With only a week to save the hotel--and the town--the friends find themselves racing against time to uncover the shadows of the past.

A Collection of Favorite Stories about Jenny Linsky

In Greenwich Village an orphaned black cat- the beguiling Jenny Linsky- lives happily with Captain Tinker, a retired sea-captain. Jenny longs to join the local Cat Club, whose members include Madame Butterfly, the fancy dancer Macaroni, and stately, plump Mr. President. But can she prove that she, too, has a special gift? With her first appearance in the US in 1944, Jenny Linsky quickly became a firm favourite for young readers. Many more books detailing Jenny Linsky's adventures followed. Most have been out of print for years, and second hand editions are hugely popular with Linsky's fans, young and old. Now published in a handsome hardback edition, with original illustrations, Jenny and the Cat Club includes Esther Averill's five favourite Cat Club stories- The Cat Club, Jeremy's First Party (1948), When Jenny Lost Her Scarf (1951), Jenny's Adopted Brothers (1952) and How the Brothers Joined the Cat Club (1953)- and an author s note which reveals that Jenny was indeed a very real cat.
