Ten-year-old Keely Rosalie Tucker is a modern-day knight with no
armor. Constantly bullied by a neighbor boy, Keely struggles to
find her place in the world in which she is comforted only by the
stories her Gramms has told her about enchanted, faraway places,
where unicorns, fairies, and angels protect children from life's
everyday pains and dangers. Now all Keely has to do is figure out
how to call them to help her.
Everything changes when her beloved Gramms suddenly dies and
gifts Keely with her aging horse, Mariah-setting the stage for an
adventure. Keely discovers that Mariah can talk, and she soon finds
her way to a hidden valley over the moon and beyond rainbows where
monsters and dragons disturb and invade the peace of mind. Now she
must learn to believe in herself and develop her secret powers in
order to deliver a miracle before it is too late.
In this delightful and charming fantasy tale, a little girl
learns to summon her courage and rely on her imagination as she
opens her heart and mind to the sounds of the possible in a
last-ditch effort to save a friend.
A thrilling gothic tale of hubris gone badly wrong. A young man's
search for the secret of the spark of life leads him to a horrific
experiment in which he creates a gigantic creature from dismembered
body parts. Rejected by his creator, the initially gentle creature
turns monstrous when his desire to find companionship and love are
thwarted. Tanya Landman revisits Mary Shelley's classic Gothic
horror story, bringing to life Dr Frankenstein and his monstrous
creation in an accessible format that more readers can enjoy.
Fifteen-year-old Justine Ross and her family travel to London,
England for what is to be a three-week vacation. While they are
there, Justine's father is to speak at a medical symposium . After
they arrive, Justine notices a shadowy figure dressed in black
which randomly appears wherever they are. She soon realizes no one
else sees the mystery figure. To top it all off, she hears a voice
tell her that time is running out! Out for what? And why her?
Frustration, fear and curiosity take hold of her as she seeks to
learn the answer. The answer comes during a daytrip to Stonehenge
when the identity of the shadowy figure is revealed. The Ross
family suddenly find themselves transported back in time to an age
of sorcerers, and kings and the magic of Wiltshire for a
once-in-a-lifetime vacation.

Magnolia Bloomgarden is not excited about spending her summer
vacation in Tooth Kingdom working as a fairy for the family
business. She couldn't care less about getting wings, learning to
fly, or sprinkling magic dust, especially because she has to leave
her best friend, Sun, behind. But all of that is about to change
when she realizes Sun's family is being pursued by dark fairies who
need just one thing to survive: teeth.
Magnolia is worried about what will happen to Sun and her family
if she does not warn them that the evil fairies are loose in the
mortal world. But before she can caution them that the fairies have
potentially found a way to open their portal, Magnolia is led to
the Tooth Kingdom by her uncle. There she soon discovers a perfect,
happy world overshadowed by the threat of dark fairies who want
nothing more than to destroy the peaceful kingdom. As the fairies
make their presence known, Magnolia embarks on a dangerous journey
to save both her kingdom and Sun's family from their sinister
clutches.
In this children's fantasy tale, a tooth fairy-in-training must
summon the courage to battle dark forces as a portal slowly opens
and frees what everyone in Tooth Kingdom has always feared.
