Magic Made


Book Description

A new and exciting adventure! "There isn't a way out this time. You know that, don't you? We've all run out of options." Magic isn't real. Everyone knew that, and Cole was no exception. Their "perfect" world was founded on science and designed with three, beautiful, futuristic cities for its citizens to live in. Cities without poverty, homelessness, or crime. Creating this utopian world was easy to do, as long as these "problems" were relocated to a distant fourth city called Rhomac. Cole has been stuck in Rhomac for years, barely getting by on his low-paying job at the mine. He doesn't remember anything about his family or his past, and he doesn't particularly care. His plan is to work at the mine until he has the money to move to one of the preferred cities. Unfortunately, a chance encounter turns Cole's entire plan upside down, and simultaneously reveals there is much more to his past than he originally believed. Magic is real, and somehow, Cole can control it. With his life on the line and a huge secret to hide, Cole is forced to run, leaving his old life behind. But magic is dangerous, and Cole realizes both friends and enemies are equally determined to use him for their own purpose. In the end Cole must make a decision, and the wrong choice could cost him everything. The first in an exciting new series for both boys and girls, this middle grade and young adult novel is filled with suspense, action, and danger. The unique blend of sci-fi, dystopian, and fantasy elements creates an exciting book that readers won't be able to put down. "Magic Made is a complex adventure and an emotional journey that explores themes of magic, sacrifice, heroism, survival, and the struggle between right and wrong." -Reader's Favorite

Make Magic! Do Good!


Book Description

From from an exciting new face in children’s literature, Dallas Clayton, comes a book of illustrated poems full of wisdom, wonder, and whimsy. A boy with a beard tries to stay six forever. A frightful monster lives a million miles away, but is equally scared of you. A magic rope hangs from the sky, next to a sign saying "Give me a try." In this brightly illustrated selection of playful, often provocative poems, ideas run the gamut from stopping your lightning-fast running to help others keep up, imagining a store that sells colors never before made, or admitting you’ll never know all the answers (and sleeping better at night). Following the runaway success of his self-published debut, Dallas Clayton’s quirky, captivating collection makes it clear that this rising talent, whose work has evoked comparisons to Dr. Seuss, Maurice Sendak, and Shel Silverstein, exudes a spirit and style all his own.

But the biggest change comes when Jez and Jay turn eleven— and their uncle, Doc, tells them he’s going to train them in rootwork. Jez and Jay have always been fascinated by the African American folk magic that has been the legacy of their family for generations—especially the curious potions and powders Doc and Gran would make for the people on their island.
