INFANTILES Y JUVENILES

Page Whittaker has always been an outcast. And after the deadly incident that destroyed her single friendship at her old school, she needs a fresh start. Which is why when she receives a scholarship offer from Agathion College, an elite boarding school folded deep within the moors of Scotland, she doesn’t even consider turning it down. Agathion is everything Page has ever wanted: a safe haven full of dusty books, steaming cups of tea and rigorous intellectual debate. And for the first time in her life, Page has even managed to become part of a close group of friends. Cyrus, Ren, Gideon, Lacey and Oak help her feel at home in Agathion's halls--the only problem is, they're all keeping secrets from her. Page doesn't know it yet, but her perfect new school has dark roots--roots that stretch back to its crooked foundation, and an ancient clandestine society with rumored ties to demonic magic. Soon, Page will be forced to learn that not everyone at Agathion is who they say they are. Least of all, her friends. Agathion claims to teach its students history…but some histories should stay buried.

The Aldens spend the summer on Grandfather's island! Joe, the island's friendly handyman, helps them with anything they need, but as the children continue to explore their summer home, they realize there is more to the island and to their new friend than meets the eye. Adapted from Gertrude Chandler Warner's Surprise Island chapter book, this early reader allows children to step into reading with a Boxcar Children classic.

Written to be read aloud to babies and babies-to-be (yes, babies in utero!) the book includes an introduction by Mrs. Dr. Seuss Audrey Geisel revealing how she and Theodor were fascinated by the idea that babies could hear sounds while still in the womb. With sixteen pages featuring guided prompts and Seussian illustrations for parents to record their child’s first memories of reading, this warm and winsome welcome to the world of Dr. Seuss will be cherished for generations!
