sisters. Months pass and most of the pups were adopted - except for
Sir Bentley. Why wouldn't anyone want to adopt me? he thought. Find
out what happens to Sir Bentley as he spends the summer waiting and
wishing and HOPING that one day, someone will come to take him to
their loving, happy home. M. Anthony Rizzo has enjoyed writing
poetry for many years. His wife, Diane, is a librarian at an
elementary school, where students and teachers easily recognize Mr.
Rizzo by the large, white Samoyed sitting alongside him in the car!
They live happily in the West Keansburg section of Hazlet Township
in New Jersey. Mr. Rizzo plans to continue writing more adventures
of Sir Bentley in his upcoming children's books.
For kids 8 to 13, join the largest Arctic expedition ever
undertaken—and discover the secrets hidden deep in the ice that
reveal how one of the world's crucial ecosystems is changing. The
Arctic is changing—fast. The once-frozen landscape is melting
before our eyes, and the effects can be felt around the world. But
the Arctic is also the region we know the least about. Thick ice,
extreme cold, and total darkness have always prevented scientists
from uncovering its secrets. Until now. This science-based guide
for middle readers follows the 2019 MOSAiC expedition on the
largest expedition to the Arctic ever undertaken. On board the
Polarstern, a powerful ice-breaker research vessel, more than five
hundred scientists from all over the world turned their attention
to this mysterious region. Their mission? To let their vessel
freeze in the sea ice and drift towards the North Pole in order to
study how the Arctic is changing, and how these changes will affect
our world. Mission: Arctic features: Filled with photographs from
the expedition Thrilling facts, illustrations, diagrams, and fact
bars about the polar region The dangerous conditions the scientists
endured, from freezing temperatures to terrifying storms and polar
bears The important discoveries made on the mission Through this
thrilling book, readers will discover the Arctic ice is not as
permanent as we thought, and what happens in the Arctic doesn't
stay in the Arctic. The knowledge gathered on the Polarstern has
the power to determine our planet's future—if only we pay
attention.
Reds love being red. Yellows love being yellow. And Blues love being blue. The problem is that they just don't like each other.
But one day, along comes a different colour who likes Reds, Yellows and Blues, and suddenly everything starts to change.
Maybe being different doesn't mean you can't be friends ...
A very special picture book that supports the adage that there is more that unites us than divides us. Along Came a Different just goes to show how much better we can all be when we come together to find common ground as friends. Every bookshelf should have a copy.
After his triumph over a ghost collector and a doctor who does no
good, Tom Golden thinks life is finally...well, golden. Grey Arthur
and his ghostly crew have happily settled into their roles as
Invisible Friends while Tom has made a new human friend with
Pick-Nose Pete.
But when one friendly ghost is overly enthusiastic about his
duties, the TV show Exceedingly Haunted Homes of England is called
in to investigate. A hysterical fear of ghosts takes over the
school, and the Invisible Friends are glad that they witness the
chaos unheard and unseen. Too bad that the same cannot be said for
the ghosts in the world beyond.
The disappearance of the Crown Jewels in a rather
Poltergeist-like manner is trouble enough, but a frightening
specter caught on film and a knight seen charging through streets
and pedestrians spell trouble. Restoration of the peace between the
ghostly and human realms may be too much for one boy to handle, but
Tom hopes that the help of Grey Arthur and the Invisible Friends
may be just what he needs to track down the cause of this
supernatural chaos.
In this third installment to the Golden & Grey series,
Louise Arnold takes the reader on an exciting adventure full of
Laundry Runs, ancient castles, and the ever dark and dangerous
woods.

Meet Jasmine, 1 forensic supersleuth, 2 aspiring Model Daughter,
3 and friend to animals.4 One second she's trying to enjoy her
Vegas Vacation, 5 the next she's tangled up in an outrageous
adventure and has to outwit a crazed killer before he ends ten
lives, one of them her own.6
1 Hi! That's me!
2 I. Wish.
3 Emphasis on "aspiring." Current status: "failing."
4 If "friend" means "unsuspecting victim" and "animals" means "one
very bad kitty."
5 And meet the cute guy at the Snack Hut. I have priorities.
6 Meep! But I guess it winds up okay since "Kirkus Reviews" says:
"Inventive, witty, and laugh-out-loud funny, with an enjoyably
twisty ending." They wouldn't say that if everyone died, right?
Right?
