John and his brother, Tom, got Mouse as a puppy when they were just little themselves, and they very quickly discovered that they could understand everything Mouse said, and she could do the same. After all, she's just a person like everyone else, though maybe a bit cleverer than most.

But this story starts when Tom becomes ill, and the doctors say they have to send Mouse away for fear of infection. Of course, the boys know they have to do something. At the pound, Mouse will die, and without Mouse, Tom will never recover.

So John's journey begins, but what starts as a trip to find a temporary home for Mouse turns out to be nothing like they've planned.

Resumen del editor:

Una novela sobre hipocresia social e injusticia. El incredible parecido entre el heredero de la corona inglesa y un mendigo, permite que por un azar del destino, al encontrarse los ninos de dos mundos tan opuestos, el principe pueda cumplir con su deseo de ver como vive y sufre la otra mitad, mientras que el mendigo se ve inesperadamente envuelto en las intrigas palaciegas. Esta es la base del apasionante relato de Mark Twain, llevado en varias oportunidades al cine y que es una novela que en el fondo es un ataque a la hipocresia social y la injusticia, llena de episodios de aventuras que se suceden el uno al otro, todo con la maestria del autor, quien quiso mostrar que era capaz de escribir sobre temas diferentes de los del pueblo americano y logro asi un increible relato, que tiene suspenso, ternura y un acertado retrato de una epoca tempestuosa dentro del imperio britanico.

Critic Reviews:

"Dashes of Dahl, snippets of Snicket, and heaps of Horvath humor abound, and like its prequel, this can be read on many levels." (Booklist)

Members Reviews:

Excellent sequel

Ms. Potter has done it again. Exit Academy is a wonderful sequel to a first-rate tale of a young girl growing up in New York City. Right from the start you are whisked off into the realm of the supernatural, where things are most definitely not what they seem (a good lesson for all of us to bear in mind). Exit Academy is hilarious, scary and flows beautifully. Ms. Potter has an excellent command of characterization, too; her characters are fascinating and distinct, and like the first novel, we want to see more of them. (She does in fact bring back a character from the first book, and expands its history.) Ms. Potter has a writing style that is unique, entrancing, and does not shy away from real-world truth. I highly recommend this to children and adults alike.

So when's the movie coming out?

One of a kind masterpiece. A totally different and unique read.

This is such a good book, I feel it would be a waste to aim it at children only; neither do I think that children will understand all the many nuances, the richness and fullness of Ellen Potter's mixture of reality hardships, life and death issues, imagination and philosophical ideas. Off course, this is why this is such a good children book - because it has so many layers and can be experienced differently at every age.

"Olivia Kidney" was such a surprise, both wonderful and painful at the same time. This book is the second in what (hopefully) becomes a series and is no less interesting or elevating then the first. In fact I do believe that Ellen Potter outdid herself and reached new heights... I sound a little pompous but besides truly loving the book I feel the author also bravely dealt with a difficult issue.

The main story is about Olivia and her father, moving, once again, to a new place. Olivia is used to this routine but she never expected to arrive to such an amazing house and to meet such strange people. Olivia and her father arrive at the house of Ansel Pover and his assistant, the lovely Nora, but this is only the cover to several side stories entangled into a wide tale with some very coherent messages.

Title: Stanley Easter

Author: Donald Davis

Narrator: Donald Davis

Format: Abridged

Length: 57 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-20-00

Publisher: August House

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 6 votes

Genres: Kids, Ages 8-10

Publisher's Summary:

There was a time during Donald Davis' college freshman year when he wasn't really sure he wanted to claim his hometown of Sulpher Springs, North Carolina. But a boy by the name of Stanley Easter changed Davis's mind.

"My sophomore year I did go home for Thanksgiving," he recalls. "In fact, I had now become so proud of where I was from that I could hardly wait to get home. I no longer had to lie about where I was from."

This story of accepting one's roots will speak to all who have ever thought twice about admitting where they came from. And Davis, through his sly narration, acknowledges that a whole lifetime of thought and attitudes can be rearranged in a single moment.

For Adults and Young Adults.

Editorial Reviews:

Donald Davis' stories must be heard to be appreciated. This acclaimed storyteller has a gift for making listeners feel as though they're sitting out on a porch on a lazy afternoon listening to him spin out his tales. In "Stanley Easter", Davis reminisces about a college friend who helped him find pride in his North Carolina roots while in "Some Things Never Change", Davis lets the audience stroll through his memories of his boyhood town. Davis has a gift for details and listeners will find it easy to vividly imagine the scenes he lovingly describes.

Critic Reviews:

"If you've never heard Donald Davis spin a yarn, I feel sorry for you." (Nashville Banner)

Members Reviews:

Title: Wake, Snake! Children's Stories and Songs of the South

Author: J.J. Reneaux

Narrator: J.J. Reneaux

Format: Abridged

Length: 1 hr

Language: English

Release date: 10-20-00

Publisher: August House

Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Kids, Ages 8-10

Publisher's Summary:

For Ages Seven to Adult

Editorial Reviews:

Author and narrator J. J. Reneaux pays homage to the South with this unusual book. Reneaux shares these delightful classic tales and songs in her sleepy Lousiana drawl. The narratives and ditties are wrapped in her lush personal reminisces of growing up in the South. Much like other Southern offerings, these stories and songs have diverse roots in Cajun, Creole, Scotch-Irish, African-American, and Native-American traditions and wisdoms. Old-timey Southern folk music adds punch and an antique regional flavor. The music is too assertive to be background music, and that is a good thing. The music functions like an omniscient narrator; it hovers above and drives Reneauxs fine narrative performance.

Members Reviews:

Great for teens who like fantasy!

I can't really think of another book series that this book evokes. Personality-wise, the main character is a little bit of Katniss Everdeen and a little bit of Harry Potter. Pacing-wise, the tale could be a cousin to the Sword of Shannara series. But the plot, the story? This is something unique.

Bostwick has crafted something entirely new while maintaining a familiar feeling that those who read fantasy novels will appreciate. This is definitely a good book and worth the read.

loved it

Beardstock, the first book, in what I hope is to become a series, kept me interested from the first to the last chapter. I liked the characters and the fanciful setting in which they live and interact. I highly recommend this book as a fun and interesting read!

Great Book!

I loved this book! It's one with a great message, and just as good as any of the Fablehaven books.

Surviving Brick Johnson

Surviving Brick Johnson

By: Myers

Have you ever been bullied on the second week of school? Then this is the perfect book for you. You could connect yourself to the character in this book, Alex. Brick is just a bully in the school. Brick Johnson bullies Alex. Alex takes karate lessons to protect him self. When Alex's mom asks the children what was there most horrible thing that happened to them Alex said that he is being bullied.

Alex is the main character. He collects baseball cards. He has a little brother named Bob. Brick Johnson bullies Alex.

Alex wants to be the only 5th grader in Karate. The sensei tells Alex that there will be a new 5th grader. That 5th grader is Brick Johnson. Alex wants to stand up for him self. He wants to be a sleek fighting machine.

This book is set in school, the YMCA and at home. The genre is realistic fiction. Something the author did great was that he had realistic details and a hopeful ending. People like this book because they could have the same problem. I like the language the author uses because it is easy to understand. It is also exiting.

I compare this book to Ramona the Brave because her big sister bullies Ramona. Ramona feels like Alex I enjoyed his book because it was about bulling and a lot of kids know how it feels to be bullied. A specific reaction that the author did was that Brick Johnson thought little kids how to read. He also wrote something you wouldn't expect to happen in the end.

Surviving Brick Johnson

Have you ever been bullied by someone? If you said yes you might like this book. You might have the same feelings like Alex. Brick Johnson is the bully of the school. Brick Johnson bullies Alex. Alex is in fifth grade. He has a little brother named Bob he is in first grade.

Alex goes into karate lessons. He wants to be a slick-fighting machine. Alex wants to be the only 5th grader that has karate lessons, the next day his sensei presented a new student. It was a 5th grader. It was Brick Johnson.

This book is set in the YMCA, a school, and at home. The story mostly took place in the school. The exciting parts are told in the YMCA and in the school.

The genre is realistic fiction. The author included many realistic details and a hopeful ending. People will like this book especially if you have the same problem as Alex. I can compare this book with Henry and Beezus in that they books have a hopeful ending. I like the language that the author uses because it makes it more exciting. I like this book because it talks about some of the same school problems we have at our school. I like this book because something really funny happens in the end.

Fantastic & Fun Fantasy!

My children were so entranced by the story that they actually requested to read chapters before they left for school in the morning because they didn't want to wait until bedtime to hear what happened next! That's what I call great intrigue! Hope there's a next one coming..

Loved this book!

Full disclosure--the author is my mom. But I loved reading this book to our kids! It stoked their imagination with the tale of a magical world, talking animals, and adventure. Can't wait till the next in the series is released!

Mystery with Magic

Penny and the Seerâs Ballad is a childâs mystery story that includes a loving family, a talented friend, animal characters, and some just right magic. The reading spell is cast very quickly and you just have to finish the book. I love the pictures.
