Violet is a science-loving girl inventor with a flair for the air! Fans of Ada Twist, Scientist and Rosie Revere, Engineer will love this classic underdog story by two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist Steve Breen. By the time she's two years old, Violet Van Winkle can engineer nearly any appliance in the house. And by eight she's building elaborate flying machines from scratch—mind-boggling contraptions such as the Tubbubbler, the Bicycopter, and the Wing-a-ma-jig. The kids at school tease her, but they have no idea what she's capable of. Maybe she could earn their respect by winning the blue ribbon in the upcoming Air Show. Or maybe something even better will happen—something involving her best-ever invention, a Boy Scout troop in peril, and even the mayor himself! "An engaging story of a spunky girl who follows her dreams . . . Violet is a terrific role model."--School Library Journal

MIRANDA AND HER DAUGHTERS turns the Cinderella story on its head. Stepmothers traditionally get a terrible rap. Fathers and mothers--even mothers-in-law--may be good or bad, but stepmothers are always ""wicked."" But now that blended families are almost the norm, we need to challenge the stereotype. MIRANDA addresses the issue head-on in a way that is quirky, sexy, playful and, at times, serious. It takes the storyline from the Brothers Grimm, but brings it up to date, gives it a distinctly adult flavor, and sets it between London, England, and Portland, Oregon. The tale will appeal to women--and men--who take on the difficult job of raising other people's children, as well as their own. More, it provides the missing 'back story': how Cinderella's father met his second wife, or why the new wife's two daughters had a problem with shoes. Above all, it shows that the protagonists in most cobbled-together marriages are well-meaning, if only human.

A reluctant sleuth must find a murderer before she becomes one of the victims. Mandy Malone is on her way to Timber Ridge for a prescribed vacation with Sis and Gramps. When a rogue blizzard strands the bus passengers at Cedar Lake Mansion Bed and Breakfast, the murder of a young woman turns the ski trip into an accusatory nightmare. All the travelers, including the innkeepers, are murder suspects. Mandy reluctantly becomes the so-called detective and must find the murderer before another life is taken. However, Mandy could not prevent another death nor stop the killer from going after her with the same deadly intention. During the final battle it becomes clear who the murderer is and their motive. Can you solve the crime before the sleuth? Are you astute enough to tell a red herring from a real clue? If so, then follow along and see if you can solve the crime before the detective does.
