Download or read book Eliza Berry A Second Chance written by Daniella Colombo and published by Pluto Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-09 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Should a young girl save her father at the cost of trillions of fathers? Eliza, a tormented thirteen-year-old, lives in the near future in a city called Cresco. After her dad disappears down a wormhole, she’s catapulted into the intrigues of an incredible, unfamiliar alien world on Earth. Realising that everything she once knew was a lie, and with her emerging but unreliable special powers, Eliza teams up with her new friends, TrueBias, Yardley and Zeno, and sets out on a quest to save her father. She soon discovers that it’s not only her dad who is in mortal danger, but so is the survival of the whole galaxy. She has to protect the precious Luxlumen stone from the Viscorpus race. But even if she secures the stone, as the only bargaining tool, does she use it to save her father or the galaxy? How can she save them both? A note from Daniella. Choosing an appropriate book for your child, or even for yourself, can be challenge, and with so many on offer, sometimes making the right choice is a lucky dip! The Look Inside feature is excellent, as it gives you the opportunity to see the style of writing, and the initial direction of the story. It is important to highlight that this book is written in British-English and has not been ‘translated’ into American-English; therefore, for younger readers, there may be some confusion with language, such as: Lift = Elevator Flat = Apartment Pavement = Sidewalk I thought I would also add some further information to help you with your choice. Eliza Berry–A Second Chance does not contain any foul language, drug use/misuse, and there is no reference to sex or any sexual scenes or associated language. The story does however contain fight scenes, which although are not heavily graphic, and some are quite comical, sometimes Eliza and her pals are in real danger, and there are descriptions of being strangled and held by the throat or hair, and other characters being hurt. We assume one character is dragged into outer space, but this is not confirmed. This is a light science fiction novel for children from the age of 10 upwards. Eliza Berry, the main character, is a girl of little confidence and, as much as this is a story is about adventure and discovery, it is also a story of how Eliza transforms from an individual with low self-esteem and poor self-worth. As many 13-year-olds, she is struggling to find her place in the world, and this story, I’d like to think, takes us on a journey where Eliza learns to love and accept herself for her uniqueness. Accepting who we are is an important part of growing up, and I touch on the themes of domestic violence, low self-esteem, love, family, feelings of abandonment, isolation, fear, friendship, trust, acceptance and honesty. All of us are special and unique, and we all have a superpower. It’s just hard sometimes to find it!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A world of possibilities opens up for Joy Harkness when she sets out on a journey that's going to show her the importance of friendship, love, and what makes a house a home Coming-of-age can happen at any age. Joy Harkness had built a university career and a safe life in New York, protected and insulated from the intrusions and involvements of other people. When offered a position at Amherst College, she impulsively leaves the city, and along with generations of material belongings, she packs her equally heavy emotional baggage. A tumbledown Victorian house proves an unlikely choice for a woman whose family heirlooms have been boxed away for years. Nevertheless, this white elephant becomes the home that changes Joy forever. As the restoration begins to take shape, so does her outlook on life, and the choices she makes over paint chips, wallpaper samples, and floorboards are reflected in her connection to the co-workers who become friends and friendships that deepen. A brilliant, quirky, town fixture of a handyman guides the renovation of the house and sparks Joy's interest to encourage his personal and professional growth. Amid the half-wanted attention of the campus's single, middle-aged men, known as "the Coyotes,"and the legitimate dramas of her close-knit community, Joy learns that the key to the affection of family and friends is being worthy of it, and most important, that second chances are waiting to be discovered within us all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taylor Edwards family might not be that close - everyone is a little too busy and overscheduled, but for the most part, they get along just fine. Then Taylor's dad gets some devastating news, and her parents decide that the family will spend on last summer together at their old lake house in the Pcocono Mountains. Crammed into a place much smaller than they are used to, they begin to get to know each other again, but as the summer progresses they're more aware than ever that they're battling a ticking clock. And as Taylor tries to deal with the drama at home, she is faced with the fact that the friends she thought she'd left behind haven't actually gone anywhere. Her former summer best friend is still living across the lake and still as mad with Taylor as she was five years ago, and her first boyfriend has moved in next door… but he's much cuter at seventeen than he was at twelve. Can one summer be enough time to get a second chance - with family, friends, and love?
