Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

Morgan (McFactoid) McCracken spews random (but fascinating) facts whenever he gets flustered. As if that's not enough to warrant getting picked on, Morgan actually has to shave! And that's too much for Brad Buckholtz, a witless bully, who constantly beats up Morgan. As an aspiring inventor, Morgan figures if he can just come up with a product that will stop his facial hair from growing, then Buckholtz will no longer have a reason to pummel him. Besides, eliminating the need to shave will save people time, energy, and money, as well as making Morgan wealthy enough to pay off his family's debts and save them from losing their house. With the help of Robin, the beautiful girl who lives next door, as well as an extremely inventive talking parrot, Morgan stumbles upon something potentially much more lucrative—a hair growing formula. And the bald world literally beats a path to his door. Overnight, Morgan becomes an international celebrity, entertaining absurdly lavish offers from cosmetics companies. Suddenly everyone wants to be his friend, including Brad Buckholtz. Everyone except the one person he cares about—Robin. She doesn’t think there is anything wrong with either having whiskers or being bald. In fact, she has always wondered whether people liked her for who she was on the inside, or what she looked like on the outside. She would never respect, and she will definitely not support, someone who sells his soul to superficiality. After escaping formula snatchers and kidnappers, with the insights gained from some well-timed bird poop and one very smart girl, Morgan makes his choice between fame and fortune and his heart's desire. Sky Pony Press, with our Good Books, Racehorse and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of books for young readers—picture books for small children, chapter books, books for middle grade readers, and novels for young adults. Our list includes bestsellers for children who love to play Minecraft; stories told with LEGO bricks; books that teach lessons about tolerance, patience, and the environment, and much more.

All eleven-year-old Jason Adrian wanted to do this summer was go to soccer camp with his best friend. The one thing he didn’t want to do was get sent off to Grandma McIntire’s while his stepparents were off on a vacation for two, and his stepsister got to go to a camp that was perfect for her. But when two of the school bullies took Jason out during soccer tryouts, leaving him with a bad sprain that would take far too long to heal, it looked like Grandma McIntire’s was exactly where he was headed. Then opportunity knocked at Jason’s door-or more accurately, it rapped at his window. He probably should have guessed how weird things were going to get when a big crow attacked the window of his attic bedroom, and then went after Jason himself when he was foolish enough to take a look outside. That was the moment when everything started to go wrong. First a fall from the roof, then getting locked out, then the sprain that left him on the sidelines watching other kids being chosen for camp. And the really bizarre thing was that the crow had been clutching a torn off piece of paper with the message: “You may already have won….”But just when Jason was certain he was doomed for the summer, his English teacher, Mrs. Cowling, unexpectedly came to his rescue. Without telling Jason or his family, Mrs. Cowling had entered an essay of Jason’s in a special contest. And now he was being offered the chance to go to Camp Ravenwyng, a small place that was offering a free summer stay to kids with creativity and imagination. It sounded crazy but it was sure better than staying with an old lady who refused to get cable TV and thought jello was the high point of dessert. And with his English teacher’s assurances that it was a wonderful opportunity, even his overprotective stepmother couldn’t refuse. So a few days later Jason found himself boarding a funky little bus with a small group of kids and two very eccentric-looking counselors. The ride to Ravenwyng was the first tip-off that this was not going to be your run-of-the-mill camp, not when they suddenly went from nowhere to somewhere and time itself seemed to become totally confused in the process. And that was only the beginning. Before Jason’s time at Ravenwyng was done, he was going to make some great new friends, encounter some terrifying enemies that were out of this world, and discover things about himself and his own unique talents that he never would have believed. For Camp Ravenwyng was built on the border of some very unusual territory, land that was about to become a battleground between the Ravenwyngers-otherwise know as the Magickers-and their ancient enemies, the Dark Hand of Brennard. And the only chance the Magickers had of winning was if they could teach their new recruits to master their magical powers before the Hand attacked…
