Now the New Protectors are on the trail of four such Beasts,

Greystone Valley is a land of wizards, dragons, and warriors... and
one young girl who ends up there quite by accident when her idle
wish is granted. Sarah discovers that not everything in the valley
is as magic as she might've wished - especially the nearly
illiterate wizard, the mouse-sized dragon, and the warrior who
can't stand the sight of blood. Being hunted isn't helping, either.
Will Sarah survive this new life of hers, and can she make it home?
And, more importantly, will she ever be the same again?
13 year old Paul and his 10 year old sister Chaeley wished for
nothing more than a carefree summer filled with lots of swimming,
boating, and hiking. And they got their wish...sort of.
They got to go boating when they "borrowed" their grandfather's
sailboat. And they got to go swimming when the boat sank off the
coast of a tropical island. Now they are going to get to go hiking,
because a bizarre genie named Rialti has turned Chealey into a
camel and won't turn her back until they bring him a magical
dragon's horn from the other side of the Crown of Amaranth.
For the protection of the magical people and animals that live
in the Crown of Amaranth, its exact location must remain secret. It
is one of the last refuges of giants, trolls, witches, unicorns,
fairy folk, and dragons, all of whom have their own reasons for
delaying the children in their quest.
It comes as a twinge, a signal that you've reached the exact half
point of your life... Flint knows he will die at 16 so he's never
really tried to live. With 6 weeks left, he returns to his hometown
with his family, determined to go quietly. Science-obsessed
September interns at the world-renowned Half Life Institute. She
has never grieved the death of her younger sister who "half-lifed"
the previous year but she is determined to find a cure. Chance
brings the two together. A friendship - and then something more -
starts to form. September's easy warmth gives Flint permission to
enjoy his life, and in turn Flint allows September to grieve
instead of hiding behind smiles and personas. But time's running
out and Flint hasn't shared his secret yet - will their connection
prove extraordinary enough to last beyond those last few weeks, or
is their time together destined to end in heartbreak? An achingly
beautiful romance story from the author of TikTok bestseller You
& Me At the End of the World Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera,
Kathleen Glasgow and Jennifer Niven A future classic for the Books
That Made Me Cry trend PRIASE FOR THE HALF LIFE OF LOVE "Brianna
Bourne offers us a moving and enthralling story that reminds us
that love lights our way as we all travel in death's shadow." Jeff

King

tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing
to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was
reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, and what is
the use of a book, ' thought Alice without pictures or
conversation?' So she was considering in her own mind (as well as
she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid),
whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the
trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a
White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.
