and Only Ivan and Rosanne Parry's A Wolf Called Wander."-School

graphic novel adventure based on a true story, in which a young
conservationist overcomes the odds to save and return a sun bear to
its natural habitat. When endlessly curious and tenacious Chang
discovers a bear bile farm near her home in Vietnam, she decides to
do everything she can to save wild animals-by becoming a
conservationist! After teaching herself survival skills,
documenting each rainforest plant and animal she sees in her field
notebook, and disproving the critics who think she isn't old enough
or strong enough, Chang is finally accepted as a rescue center
volunteer. But her toughest challenge yet comes when she's tasked
with returning Sorya-the sun bear she raised from infancy-back into
the wild. Because despite being a different species, Sorya is
Chang's best friend. And letting a friend go is never easy . . .
even when it's the right thing to do. With breathtaking art and
STEM facts galore, Chang's daring story is for any young reader,
animal lover, and intrepid explorer!
What if, at the dawn of the American nation, Army officers plotted
successfully to overthrow Congress and enthrone George Washington
as King of the United States?
Time has passed, and the year is 1925. Ravaged by more than a
century of revolutions, the Union is falling apart. American King
Augustine grovels at the feet of the British Empire, begging aid
for his bankrupt kingdom. His war against the Republic of Louisiana
is a resounding disaster. Repeatedly smashed by the enemy, the
starved U.S. Army is fleeing the battlefield.
An evil cult on the loose in the nation's capital of
Philadelphia has thrown the city into a hysterical frenzy.
Unfortunately for the royals, the cult's main gateway to Hell is
hidden somewhere in the palace.
The kingdom is desperate for a warrior saint to deliver it from
evil. Americans look to His Royal Highness Crown Prince Johnny
Washington-Bourbon as the perfect savior. He flies combat missions
and heals with his touch. The people adore him. Sworn enemies put
aside their differences to join his crusade.
There's just one problem--twelve-year-old Johnny has far more
courage than common sense, and his harebrained schemes to save
America are disasters waiting to happen.
"Paper-weights," observed Patty, sucking an injured thumb, "were
evidently not made for driving in tacks. I wish I had a
hammer."
This remark called forth no response, and Patty peered down from
the top of the step-ladder at her roommate, who was sitting on the
floor dragging sofa-pillows and curtains from a dry-goods box.
"Priscilla," she begged, "you aren't doing anything useful. Go
down and ask Peters for a hammer."
Priscilla rose reluctantly. "I dare say fifty girls have already
been after a hammer."
"Oh, he has a private one in his back pocket. Borrow that. And,
Pris," -- Patty called after her over the transom, -- "just tell
him to send up a man to take that closet door off its hinges."
