They become the next generation of Heroes . . . and Villains. September 15 is also Emily Wright's first day on campus. While everyone else is out celebrating the start of their college career, Emily's hiding in her dorm room. She wonders if it's possible to earn a degree while completely avoiding eye contact with anyone. All she wants is to learn a little and maybe get over her anxiety. Instead, she's granted a superpower and categorized as villainous. So, Emily panics—and inadvertently conjures up a pint-size supervillain sidekick. Emily has no intention of doing anything—evil or otherwise—with her powers. And if she has to babysit an increasing number of "little sisters" in order to stay under the radar, so be it. But can Emily gain control of her life, or will she drown in a sea of supervillainy and cuddles?

Chapter 1: Teddy’s Big Mission Teddy, a cute teddy bear, lived in Snuggleville, a cute little town with gardens full of laughter and brightly colored houses. But Teddy wasn't like other teddy bears. His heart was big and loving, and he was brave. One sunny morning, something big happened that would change Teddy's life forever. Teddy was called to the mayor of Snuggleville's office, which was full of books and pictures of all the kids in town. She gave Teddy a sad look and told him how bad things were: all the kids in Snuggleville could die from viruses and scary monsters from their nightmares. The mayor made it clear that the nightmare monsters were lurking in the dark and causing bad dreams, while the viruses were spreading silently and making kids sick. Teddy looked like the ideal hero for this important task, and the kids needed a brave guardian to look out for them. Teddy's heart started to beat fast because he was both scared and excited. Even though he knew this would be hard, the stories, hugs, and happy faces of the children made him more determined. He stood up and told the mayor, "I will protect the children. I will make Snuggleville safe again." He held out his small stuffed bear chest as proof. Teddy knew that he had to learn about viruses, how to fight them, and the systems that made the horror monsters move in order to be useful. He spent his nights reading books and talking with smart cats and owls who knew a lot about secrets. Teddy learned how to keep himself clean and avoid getting sick. He also learned that light and laughter were the two things that nightmare animals feared the most. Teddy started his journey with this knowledge. He taught the kids how to wash their hands properly and how important it is to keep the area clean. Some of the stories he told them were brave and happy, which made them feel good and made it hard for the nightmare creatures to hide. Things started to change because Teddy was kind and didn't care about himself. The kids' illnesses got better over time, and their bad thoughts turned into happy, exciting ones. No matter what time of day or night it was, Teddy worked hard and was always there to help or comfort. Even though his job was hard, Teddy kept going because he loved the kids and was dedicated to his work. He learned that no matter how small you are, if your heart is in the right place, you can make a big difference. As Teddy tried to save the children from Snuggleville, the story turned into one of bravery, kindness, and the power of care for others. Chapter 2: Getting the Group Together Even though he was brave and kind, Teddy quickly realized that protecting the kids from viruses and monsters from nightmares was too much for one teddy bear to handle. A very old tree in the park said, "Together, we are stronger." Teddy made the smart choice to find friends who could help him on his heroic quest. But not just any friends, but magical partners with special skills. First, Teddy thought about which people in Snuggleville have skills that could be useful. He then thought of Ellie the Elephant, the friendly giant from the magical forest nearby. Many people knew Ellie for her amazing magic wall skills that kept everyone inside safe from harm. Teddy knew that Ellie's coverings could keep the kids safe from diseases that can't be seen. Ellie was ready to help, so he went to see her. Ellie joined Teddy's group with a real smile, ready to use her magic to keep the Snuggleville kids safe. When this happens, Teddy needs help in strange ways and someone who can deal with the scary creatures. At that very moment, Benny the Bunny got into Teddy's mind. The rabbit Benny wasn't like other rabbits; he could go back in time! Because Benny could go back in time, they learned about the scary creatures and bugs that lived in the past. They also got a glimpse of what was to come, which helped them get ready. It was interesting to find Benny because he was always moving. Benny was happy to help Teddy when he finally went up to him. "Let's hope to it!" Teddy said with a smile, and his team got stronger right away. Benny, Ellie, and Teddy worked well together as a group. The kids were safe from viruses because of Ellie's magical shields, and Benny's time-traveling skills helped them understand and trick the nightmare monsters. He was more driven and hopeful when his new crew was with him. They both wanted to make sure that the kids in Snuggleville were safe and happy. For days, they trained and made plans, so they were ready for anything that came their way. So, with Teddy's bravery and love, Ellie's strength, and Benny's creativity, they set out on their quest to show that friends can get through anything together.

Book excerpt: To Elias Gunnarson, his dad, Teddy, was part of “the greatest generation,” a man who fought valiantly in World War II, was honorably discharged, married his high school sweetheart, and lived happily ever after. Right? Wrong! The truth, he finds, lies shrouded in an intricately complex web bearing only superficial resemblance to the terrible reality lived by those who battled from the sands of Omaha Beach to the horrors of Dachau. As letters, videos, stories, and memories unfold the true tale of Teddy’s war, Elias learns that the lives of his mother, his father, and his father’s brother, Jake, were not what they seemed, and that dying a hero does not absolve a person from the sins of his past. In Teddy’s War, author Donald Willerton has crafted a heroic story of how one man’s love for his brother immerses them both in the life-changing horrors of World War II. It is a family saga built around the bond between two brothers, an action-filled story of how the war drove them into the darkest corners of humanity, and a philosophical inquiry into the central questions of love and loyalty.

Book excerpt: Edward M. Kennedy is one of the most influential senators in Congress. For the last 35 years, he′s played a major role in events ranging from the Vietnam War to Supreme Court confirmations. He′s also been closely associated with issues such as health care, civil rights and campaign finance reform. More than the foremost lawmaker and best orator in the Senate, he′s enthralled (and disappointed) a generation who saw him as the keeper of his famous brothers′ flame. He′s seen America -- and her politics -- change in drastic ways. In this definitive biography, New York Times Washington Editor Adam Clymer draws an in-depth portrait of this complex man. Through interviews with Kennedy, and the people close to him, he places Kennedy′s career in a historical perspective, and observes how Kennedy′s personal life has affected his political performance. The Senator has dealt with his infamous legacy, struggled to overcome the Chappaquiddick incident, and handled spectacular failures as well as many truimphs. He′s one of the few old-fashioned liberals who has held the Democratic Party to its principles, and is a hero to many. This is a unique, enormously readable chronicle of one of the most fascinating political figures of our time.
