The natural habitat of a teacher is a classroom. So when Mrs. Birdley escapes school and ends up wild, loose, and confused at the local grocery store, Miranda knows just what to do: she must use her brain, her guts, and her extensive knowledge of Nature Joe to rescue Mrs. Birdley—at any cost! This delightfully over-the-top picture book by newcomer Emma Reynolds explores the weirdness of seeing a teacher outside of school and will have young readers laughing out loud every time they read.

Michael, a college student receives a jewel encrusted magic sword as a birthday gift. In reading the inscription on the blade, he is transported to a land of magic in another dimension, where people and demons ride dragons, gargoyles come to life, and people can be turned to stone. Princess Amara is escaping on her blue dragon; she is being pursued by Lizardmen called Tetrons. She calls to the Gods to send her a warrior to save her kingdom. Michael appears, but he isn’t a warrior. Amara looks to the sky and asks, “In my hour of need you send me a cowardly peasant.” Michael is not suited for this world; he just wants to go home. But, they both are forced to fight the evil sorcerer Nekros and Diva his cohort, who has the ability to change into demons. This tests Michael and Amara’s skills in magic. Through many trials they encounter giant spiders, bats, scorpions, and Tetrons. They meet a woodsman and his daughter who help them along their way.

Most Anticipated by Goodreads * The Nerd Daily * B&N Reads, and more! An Amazon Best YA of the Month The day of her high school graduation, Riley realizes two things: One, that she has spent the last four years trying so hard to be a Good Kid for her mom that she has no idea who she really is anymore, and two, she has no idea what she wants because of it. The solution? Pack her bags and move to New York for the summer, where her childhood best friend Tom and co-creator of The Getaway List — a list of all the adventures they’ve wanted to do together since he moved away — will hopefully help her get in touch with her old adventurous self, and pave the road to a new future. Riley isn’t sure what to expect from Tom, who has been distant since his famous mom’s scriptwriting career pulled him away. But when Riley arrives in the city, their reconnection is as effortless as it was when they were young―except with one, unexpected complication that will pull Riley’s feelings in a direction she didn’t know they could take. As she, Tom, and their newfound friends work their way through the delightfully chaotic items on The Getaway List, Riley learns that sometimes the biggest adventure is not one you take, but one you feel in your heart.
