Its heritages of Old houses and Old trees, Old friends and Old ways pos sess a magic lure to all who once come under its spell. Every town has its Main Street, and Flushing's hasn't changed in many years save for the garish movie heaven that has thrust itself into the midst of a quiet settlement. Henry, the Old cigar maker, still rolls many shapes for many tastes, and every nook has its devotees Of Havana and tellers Of local history. Nobody seems ever to do any business in Flushing - everybody is always visiting in a next door - neighbor sort Of way; yet through and underneath this friendly calm flows a steady stream Of North Shore trade, from Old Whitestone and College Point, Bayside and Little Neck and a dozen more surrounding towns - for Flushing is a veritable tollgate Of well-stocked shops that feed and clothe the Sixty thousand or more residents Of the Third' Ward Of Queens Borough. Over its drawbridge across Flushing Creek must pass all who come and go between New York and these Long Island points.

Book excerpt: A hilarious, high-stakes adventure involving crooked casino boats, floating fish, toxic beaches, and one kid determined to get justice. This is Carl Hiaasen's Florida—where the creatures are wild and the people are wilder! You know it's going to be a rough summer when you spend Father's Day visiting your dad in the local lockup. Noah's dad is sure that the owner of the Coral Queen casino boat is flushing raw sewage into the harbor–which has made taking a dip at the local beach like swimming in a toilet. He can't prove it though, and so he decides that sinking the boat will make an effective statement. Right. The boat is pumped out and back in business within days and Noah's dad is stuck in the clink. Now Noah is determined to succeed where his dad failed. He will prove that the Coral Queen is dumping illegally . . . somehow. His allies may not add up to much–his sister Abbey, an unreformed childhood biter; Lice Peeking, a greedy sot with poor hygiene; Shelly, a bartender and a woman scorned; and a mysterious pirate–but Noah's got a plan to flush this crook out into the open. A plan that should sink the crooked little casino, once and for all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ana loves stories. She often makes them up to help her little brother fall asleep. But in her small village there are only a few books and she has read them all. One morning, Ana wakes up to the clip-clop of hooves, and there before her, is the most wonderful sight: a traveling library resting on the backs of two burros‑all the books a little girl could dream of, with enough stories to encourage her to create one of her own. Inspired by the heroic efforts of real-life librarian Luis Soriano, award-winning picture book creators Monica Brown and John Parra introduce readers to the mobile library that journeys over mountains and through valleys to bring literacy and culture to rural Colombia, and to the children who wait for the BiblioBurro. A portion of the proceeds from sales of this book was donated to Luis Soriano's BiblioBurro program.
