Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abigail Thaddeus is aware of her borderline geek status--which only keeps her secretly yearning for a life of fame and adventure. But as an eighth-grader in the tiny town of Westbrook, tucked away in her grandparents' ramshackle old mansion, her chances for glory are slim. That is, until she discovers a mysterious letter that launches her on an undercover quest to research mythical beasts. With the help of her best friend, Charley, Abigail unearths little-known facts about mythical creatures, from the familiar unicorn to the bizarre bonnacon. The more she learns, the more she finds that all is not as it may seem. When a threatening letter arrives, the lines between fact and fiction and excitement and danger begin to cross. Pop, her overly-strict grandfather, and Ninny, her nutty grandmother, may both be part of a reality more complicated and mystical than Abigail ever imagined. Will Abigail pursue top-secret knowledge at all costs or choose a path of safety? Her decision could bring eternal glory . . . or certain doom! In this scrapbook-style journal, Abigail's quest to investigate mythical beasts is full of adventure, mishap, spunky humor, colorful sketches, and historically based research.

But the rest of us sure will find plenty of guffaws in this side-splittingly uproarious ABC, which takes comic aim at the redneck lifestyle. It's got 26 letters (yes, that's how many there are) worth of fun, all illustrated with hilarious cartoons of rednecks and their more refined and proper dogs. G is for grandmother (who's also your aunt and your sister). L is for Lottery-otherwise known as the redneck retirement plan. And V is for the velvet Elvis painting that probably hangs in your trailer. This'll be hotter than a mess of collard greens on the back burner of a $4 stove! And because we know how difficult the alphabet can be for those rednecks, we have several extra usages of the letters in the alphabet.
