A twelfth birthday takes a very unexpected turn when a girl finds herself at the centre of a plot to save a community from the brutal Corvus rule

How do you find your way out of the dark?

On her twelfth birthday, the last thing Cecilia expected was to find herself lost in a labyrinth of tunnels beneath London. Afraid, alone, but determined, she sets to work on her escape, and soon realises that perhaps there is a reason she and the mysterious marble her sister gave her have ended up so far from home.

Deep in the darkness roam the terrible Corvus, tyrants of the magical realm below. Cecilia's struggle to return to her family becomes a mission of great danger and adventure, as she tries to help her new friends to free themselves and their beautiful, unique world. But will her brave heart be enough to ensure she doesn't stay trapped in the darkness for ever?

Little Frog -- the feisty young heroine of Little Frog and the Scary Autumn Thing is on a new adventure. This time she's trying to stay a jump, or rather a lily pad, ahead of the spring polliwogs (brothers, sisters, and cousins of hers). They are SO much trouble. And because Little Frog likes being an "Only Frog," the tadpoles (as she's supposed to call them) just get in the way she. Little Frog is totally out of sorts. But when that pollywog trouble becomes nothing compared to a real threat--boys with nets!!! -- Little Frog has to remember all that she's been taught in order to save the tadpoles from disaster. This charmer of a sequel is by multi-award winning author Jane Yolen, author of On Bird Hill, OWL MOON and the HOW DO DINOSAURS books. The wonderful spring palette and adorable pictures are by illustrator of the first Little Frog, Ellen Shi.
