In this "artfully crafted" (Publishers Weekly") companion to the bestselling The Misfits" and Totally Joe," Addie Carle confronts labels, loss, and what it means to grow up.
The Gang of Five is back in this third story from Paintbrush Falls. Addie Carle, the only girl in the group of friends is outspoken, opinionated, and sometimes...just a bit obnoxious.
But as seventh grade progresses, Addie's not so sure anymore about who she is. It seems her tough exterior is just a little too tough and that doesn't help her deal with the turmoil she feels on the inside as she faces the pains of growing up.
Told in elegant, accessible verse, ADDIE ON THE INSIDE gives readers a look at a strong, smart, and sensitive girl struggling with the box society wants to put her in. Addie confronts experiences many readers will relate to: the loss of a beloved pet, first heartbreak, teasing...but also, friendship, love, and a growing confidence in one's self.

Dear Reader,
The guy who usually writes these letters asked me to do it instead. Maybe he was having a bad writing day. Maybe he wanted me to play the sap for him. Or maybe he ran into Trouble with a capital T.
Well, Trouble's in my business. I'm a dog. I'm a detective. The name's Bud Barkin. And this book is about the case I had involving a dame named Delilah Gorbish, whom I would call Trouble with a capital T except I've used that metaphor already, and the clown named Crusty Carmady whose calling card is a teakettle that he heaves through windows. Nice pair of birds. The mystery deepens with another character called the Big Fish, who isn't really a fish and who's addicted to the Home Shopping Network.
Hey, I don't write 'em -- I just solve 'em.
Yours truly,
Bud Barkin, P.E.

Who pushed Eric down the stairs?

Right before he moved away, Sebastian Barth's friend Eric had an unfortunate accident. Now he's sending Sebastian mysterious notes hinting it wasn't an accident at all.

Was it the ghost in the cemetery?

Was Eric's accident linked to the ghost that' haunting the cemetary?

Sebastian doesn't really believe in ghosts, but he's seen the shadowy figure in black and heard her moan and cries.

What did Eric know?

If Sebastian and his friends can decode Eric's strange notes, maybe they can solve the mystery of the ghost. But before Sebastian discovers what Eric knew, he must face a modern day evil more dangerous than any ghost from the past.

Dear possible reader of this book,
My editor asked me to write a third book in my series, "Tales from the House of Bunnicula." And did I have trouble getting started I was afraid I used up all my ideas. But faster than a writer can say "What if?" I came up with a story It's about a lovable and smart (not to mention cute) orphan wirehaired dachshund puppy named Howie, who has a mysterious pain in his leg and is mysteriously invited to attend the Dogwiz Academy for Canine Conjurers. Together, Howie and his best friend, the very, very, very smart Delilah, who speaks in a British accent in this book for some reason, discover they must fight a sinister foe...The-Evil-Force-Whose-Nam-C'not-Be-Spoke
Your friend,
Howie

First there were mysterious messages.

Someone who knows a lot about movie star Michaele Caraway's past is sending her unsigned notes. At first they appear to be innocent fan letters, but then they turn threatening.

Next the accidents started happening.

To someone as superstitious as Michaele, it seems as if her new play is jinxed. But Sebastian Barth knows the backstage mishaps aren't accidents at all.

Who's out to get the movie star?

Sebastian has to find the answer, or opening night may mean the final curtain for the star.

Dear possible reader of this book,

I wasn't sure I'd be able to write a book ever again after Canine Quarterly reviewed my series, Tales from the House of Bunnicula. They said I would never win the Newbony Award. Was I depressed! And I didn't even know what a Newbony was! Luckily Delilah's read a lot of Newbony books, so she helped me write this one. It's about a poor (but very cute) orphan dachshund puppy named Howie Monroe, who lives on the prairie and yearns for a chicken bone. (I know. Trust me.) Things really get exciting when Howie and his best friend, the smart and well-read Delilah, find a time machine and travel back to ancient Egypt where they uncover...the mystery of the Pharaoh's tomb!!!

Your friend,

Howie"

This book explains concepts of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffractometry (XRD) that are important for the characterization of materials. The fourth edition adds important new techniques of TEM such as electron tomography, nanobeam diffraction, and geometric phase analysis. A new chapter on neutron scattering completes the trio of x-ray, electron and neutron diffraction. All chapters were updated and revised for clarity. The book explains the fundamentals of how waves and wavefunctions interact with atoms in solids, and the similarities and differences of using x-rays, electrons, or neutrons for diffraction measurements. Diffraction effects of crystalline order, defects, and disorder in materials are explained in detail. Both practical and theoretical issues are covered. The book can be used in an introductory-level or advanced-level course, since sections are identified by difficulty. Each chapter includes a set of problems to illustrate principles, and the extensive Appendix includes laboratory exercises.

BEWARE THE HARE!

"Is he or isn't he a vampire?"

Before it's too late, Harold the dog and Chester the cat must find out the truth about the newest pet in the Monroe household -- a suspicious-looking bunny with unusual habits...and fangs!

From the sure-footed duo of James Howe and Randy Cecil comes a hugely endearing new character -- in a humorous, heart-warming tale about holding on to your dreams.
Brontorina has a dream. She wants to dance. But Brontorina is rather large -- too large to fit in Madame Lucille's dance studio. Brontorina does not have the right shoes, and everyone knows you can't dance without the proper footwear. Still, Brontorina knows, deep in her heart, that she is meant to be a ballerina. James Howe introduces a lovable dinosaur whose size is outmatched only by her determination, and whose talent is outmatched only by her charm. Accompanied by Randy Cecil's beguiling illustrations, here is an irresistible story that proves that no problem is too big when the heart and imagination know no bounds.

This title was first published in 2003. The author explores and describes the nature of what he terms "epistolary spaces", phenomena that came into being as a result of the foundation during the 1650s of a Post Office available to the general public. He focuses on the history of letter-writing by English men and women, and in so doing he shows how the imaginations of letter writers were affected by the increasingly cheaper, faster and more efficient postal services that were developed throughout the time period covered. The book makes a detailed study of five "real" correspondences, reading the letters in terms of their social and political interest and addressing such concerns as class, gender, collections of model letters and the importance of London to English epistolary spaces. How portrays epistolary spaces variously as arenas in which to explore the new urban culture of London, in the love letters of Dorothy Osborne (1652-4); courtly enclaves, in the diplomatic letters of the dramatist Sir George Etherege (1685-9); and aristocratic redoubts, in the correspondence between the Countesses of Hertford and Pomfret (1739-41). Finally, How examines the letters that constitute Richardson's novel "Clarissa", showing how the artistic achievement of Richardson's greatest novel was aided by almost a century of just such imaginations of epistolary spaces as are to be found in the letters of Clarissa Harlowe, Anna Howe and Robert Lovelace.

"James How's Epistolary Spaces ... [contains] a fascinating discussion of the ways the rise of the postal system created what he calls 'epistolary spaces' ..." Temma Berg, The Lives and Letters of an Eighteenth-Century Circle of Acquaintance (2006) "James How's Epistolary Spaces ... reconstructs in meticulous detail the history of the national postal system and its effects on letter writing, from the Renaissance to the 18th century ... How also highlights the role of the new postal system in connecting all the people of England to the capital city of London ..." Sonia De Angelis, 'Status Quaestionis (2011) "According to James How, the foundation of a Post Office in England in the 1650s ... [ensured that] the way was open to experiment in all that a correspondence could achieve: it opened up new forms of petitioning the state and the aristocracy; novels like Richardson's Clarissa ... suggested that a whole life could be lived in an epistolary space." Martyn Lyons, Culture and History Digital Journal (2012) "... a pioneering work of literary and cultural criticism, well-researched, which renews scholarly debates about epistolary communication in early modern England."Jay Caplan, Eighteenth Century Book Reviews Online "How writes vividly about the difference between the private carriage of a letter and the sending of a letter into impersonal common spaces, where it jostles up against other people's letters ... his account of these 'eager and enthusiastic consumers of the new space of mind opened up by the Post office', a space he compares to cyberspace, offers a provocative explanation for the appearance of the epistolary novel ..." Jocelyn Harris, The Age of Johnson"How's book is particularly valuable for [its] attention to the institutional history and the cultural contexts that informed and shaped letter-exchanges at this time." Elizabeth Heckendorn Cook, Prose Studies "Mr How offers us a useful new term in letter writing, 'epistolary space' ... Readers will benefit from reading [his] analysis of the nature of epistolary spaces and the growth of the postal system that changed letter writing practice; they will also appreciate a fascinating group of late seventeenth- and eighteenth-century letter writers." Cynthia Lowenthal, The Scriblerian and the Kit-Cats "... there is much to admire [here], not least the painstaking immersion in social, personal, political and historical context, particularly, but by no means exclusively, with regard to the foundation of the Post Office and its impact on a range of activities, including, obviously, letter-writing and, less obviously, interception and counter espionage. The correspondents looked at are, moreover, not quite the usual suspects while still remaining in some measure either central to, or characteristic of, their times and stations."

Not a great place to visit, and you wouldn't want to live there

The Monroes have gone on vacation, leaving Harold and Chester at Chateau Bow-Wow -- not exactly a four-star hotel. On the animals' very first night there, the silence is pierced by a peculiar wake-up call -- an unearthly howl that makes Chester observe that the place should be called Howliday Inn.

But the mysterious cries in the night (Chester is convinced there are werewolves afoot) are just the beginning of the frightening goings-on. Soon animals start disappearing, and there are whispers of murder. Is checkout time at Chateau Bow-Wow going to come earlier than Harold and Chester anticipated?
