Publisher's Summary:

Kirsty's got a secret - a big, four-legged secret...

When they moved out to the country after the divorce, Mom promised Kirsty a pony of her own. Then Lancelot practically drops in her lap, and Kirsty empties her money box to buy him. He's skinny and starved and only half trained for riding. But he's hers, all hers, and Kirsty is overwhelmed with joy. Because of Lancelot, Kirsty finds a new friend, Faye, whose grandmother, Lucy, runs a pony farm. Because of their friendship, she finds a place to board her pony, and because she makes herself so useful around the place, she finds herself signed up for riding lessons as well. But what she can't seem to find are the words to tell her mother that the pony she'll be riding is her own. Then Kirsty falls and finds herself in the hospital - and in hot water with her family and friends. First there's bickering and blame, then disappointment, and finally doom: Lancelot must go. But at the last moment, Kirsty finds the support she needs, and it comes from the most unexpected source.

Title: On Two Feet and Wings

Author: Abbas Kazerooni

Narrator: Abbas Kazerooni

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 35 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-21-14

Publisher: Brilliance Audio

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 42 votes

Genres: Kids, Ages 8-10

Publisher's Summary:

He is in a foreign country, he is alone, and he is just a boy. Abbas Kazerooni is not yet 10, but hes suddenly forced to leave his parents, his friends - his entire world - and flee Tehran. The Iran-Iraq war is at its bloodiest, and the Ayatollahs who rule Iran have reduced the recruitment age for the army. If Abbas doesnt escape, its almost certain that he will be drafted and die fighting for a regime that has stripped his family of all they have.

On his own in the strange, often frightening city of Istanbul, Abbas grows up fast - with little more than his wits to guide him. He must conquer difficult things: how to live on his own, how to navigate a foreign city and culture when he doesnt speak the language, and, most importantly, how to judge who is a friend and who is an enemy. Facing the unexpected as well as the everyday challenges of life on his own, Abbas walks a tightrope of survival - yearning to please the demanding father he has left behind, yet relishing his new found independence.

His quick thinking, entrepreneurial spirit, and the kindness of strangers allow him to make the best of his dire situation in surprising ways. Does he have what it takes to not only survive against these challenging odds but achieve his parents ultimate dream for him: a visa to England, and the safety it represents?

This compelling true story of one young boys courage provides a powerful childs-eye view of war, political tumult, and survival.

Critic Reviews:

"Readers of Abbas Kazerooni's incredible memoir will be rooting for him from the very first pages. His frank narrative is clear, compelling, and utterly endearing. An unforgettable story" (Naomi Shihab Nye, winner of the 2013 NSK Neustadt Prize in Childrens Literature)

"This heart-stopping memoir...left me wondering whether adults could be so resilient. Enormously inspiring on many levels!" (Suzanne Fisher Staples, author of Shabanu, a Newbery Honor Book)

"This is a compelling story full of tension and heartbreak." (Terry Farish, author of The Good Braider)

I found "Family Ties" very light and amusing reading, typical of "building teenage experience" and with the Paulsen's exceptional attention to detail without being boring. My only feeling of distraction was the egotism of the main character was greater than most teenage boys can imagine to be realistic.

Lost and alone in the jungle, one boy will have to let go of his assumptions and anger, or be dragged down with them.

Dylan Barstow has finally crossed the line. After getting caught on a late-night joyride in a stolen car, Dylan is shipped off to live with his ex-Marine uncle for the summer. But Uncle Todd has bigger plans for Dylan than push-ups and early-morning jogs.

Deep in the steamy jungles of Papua New Guinea, there's a WWII fighter plane named SECOND ACE that's been lost for years, a plane that Dylan's own grandfather barely escaped from with his life. In all this time, no one has ever been able to track down SECOND ACE - but now Dylan and his uncle are going to try.

Lush and haunted, vital and deadly, these alien jungles half a world away could mean Dylan's salvation, or they could swallow him whole.
