Book Description

Until now, Misty Muldoon's favourite view of Newfoundland was always the one in her rear-view mirror. So when she has to leave the city and move to the outport of Charlie’s Cove, NL, with her two daughters, a mountain of debt, and the ink freshly dried on her divorce papers, it’s hardly her idea of a happy homecoming. With the help of the kind, meddling and downright eccentric locals, she sets out to rebuild her life in the ramshackle house left to her by her great uncle. When she starts writing a column for the local paper about transitioning back to life on The Rock while looking for a new man, little does she know her search for love will soon go viral when it’s picked up by a reality TV show—Charlie’s Cove and Misty Muldoon will never be the same again. Hilarious, endearing and inspirational, Misty’s Misadventures is a tale of romance, misfortune and the enduring spirit of a woman who won’t give up. It will make you laugh out loud while putting small-town Newfoundland on your bucket list forever.

Book Description

At first, I didn’t find fog – fog found me. Liminal, transformative and increasingly elusive – far from a simple cloud of water droplets, fog is a state of mind. As mist drifted through a copse of trees, turning a familiar place strange and otherworldly, Laura Pashby snapped a photograph and an obsession began. Pashby hunts for fog, walks and swims in it, explores its often pivotal role in literature, mythology and history, as well as its environmental significance. There has been a 50 per cent drop in 'fog events' in the past fifty years, fog is drifting away without us noticing and the ecological impact could be calamitous. As she journeys to the foggiest places she can find, Pashby immerses herself in Dartmoor’s dangerous fog, searches for the Scottish haar, experiences Venice’s magical mist, tell us the myths behind the River Severn’s fog and the shipwrecks it hides. It’s easy to get lost in fog, but sometimes it’s where imperceptible things can be found, including in ourselves. Chasing Fog is a captivating meditation on fog and mist, a love song to weather and nature’s power to transform.

Book Description

Around the world there are grandparents, parents, and children who can still sing ditties by Tigger or Baloo the Bear or the Seven Dwarves. This staying power and global reach is in large part a testimony to the pizzazz of performers, songwriters, and other creative artists who worked with Walt Disney Records. Mouse Tracks: The Story of Walt Disney Records chronicles for the first time the fifty-year history of the Disney recording companies launched by Walt Disney and Roy Disney in the mid-1950s, when Disneyland Park, Davy Crockett, and the Mickey Mouse Club were taking the world by storm. The book provides a perspective on all-time Disney favorites and features anecdotes, reminiscences, and biographies of the artists who brought Disney magic to audio. Authors Tim Hollis and Greg Ehrbar go behind the scenes at the Walt Disney Studios and discover that in the early days Walt Disney and Roy Disney resisted going into the record business before the success of "The Ballad of Davy Crockett" ignited the in-house label. Along the way, the book traces the recording adventures of such Disney favorites as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Cinderella, Bambi, Jiminy Cricket, Winnie the Pooh, and even Walt Disney himself. Mouse Tracks reveals the struggles, major successes, and occasional misfires. Included are impressions and details of teen-pop princesses Annette Funicello and Hayley Mills, the Mary Poppins phenomenon, a Disney-style "British Invasion," and a low period when sagging sales forced Walt Disney to suggest closing the division down. Complementing each chapter are brief performer biographies, reproductions of album covers and art, and facsimiles of related promotional material. Mouse Tracks is a collector's bonanza of information on this little-analyzed side of the Disney empire. Learn more about the book and the authors at www.mousetracksonline.com.

Book Description

"Gram knew that raising dairy goats would be a lot of work. She was prepared for the daily chores of milking, feeding, and hauling hay. She hoped that the goats would be affectionate and playful. She had no idea just how precocious they could be ... especially Misty." --Evelyn Wool (aka Gram) Mischievous Misty is the true and "absolutely delightful" story of a curious little dairy goat who lives in The Meadow on Gram's farm. Misty loves to be near Gram and must know what she is doing at all times. When Gram carries a water bucket through The Meadow, Misty tries to see what's inside and spills water all over Gram. When Gram tries to pour feed into the trough, Misty tips the pail over and spills grain all over the ground. Each time Misty gets into a tangle, Gram patiently tries to figure out how to prevent future mishaps. "I really loved the book, because I learned it's okay when you make mistakes and make messes, like Misty did!" --Harper C., age 7 (Maryland) "I can't wait to read about what kind of trouble Misty gets into next time."--Jonah K., age 8 (New York) The story of Mischievous Misty introduces readers to one facet of the author's real life on The Wool Family Farm, which includes chickens, cows, donkeys, ducks, guinea fowl, pigs and sheep in addition to dairy goats. New to farming, the author and her family turned their world upside-down to try their hand at living off the land, discovering the joys and pitfalls of working with farm animals along the way. Unlock the wonders of Misty's world and get a glimpse of what raising dairy goats is really like. Mischievous Misty features many special extras, including photos of the real Misty, descriptions of the many dairy breed types, an invitation to join the Misty Fan Club and more.
