Book excerpt: Ben and his sisters had no idea that two teenagers trespassed onto their property. The intruders were mesmerized when they saw Bens younger sister ordering the birds and ducks to fly her to the pond. These flying creatures grabbed her clothes with their beaks and bills and elevated her high up in the air. Could this place be haunted? the teens wondered. How do the children get these animals to obey them? How was this girl able to get the birds and ducks to lift her up into the air and fly away with her? After having sworn the children to secrecy, Uncle Dave showed them his underground laboratories. He explained how snow, rain, and hail are formed. The siblings had fun playing in the labs. They made snow people in the Snow Lab and they experienced zero gravity in the Zero Gravity Lab. The intruders discovered the secret labs and managed to sneak in. They almost froze in the Snow Lab and nearly drowned when a storm developed in the Ocean Lab. Why is there snow, a beach, an ocean, and a real tropical rain forest in Uncle Daves basement? The answer to these questions, plus many educational and moral lessons can all be discovered in this unique place called Magic Farm.

Download or read book Harvey Potter s Balloon Farm written by Jerdine Nolen and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1994-04-29 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harvey Potter was a very strange fellow indeed. He was a farmer, but he didn't farm like my daddy did. He farmed a genuine, U.S. Government Inspected Balloon Farm. So begins this enchanting original tall tale. Set in the rural south and populated with a truly unforgettable cast of characters--including, if you look very carefully, a rabbit, a Tyrannosaurus rex, a cat, a chicken, a cow, and a pig hidden in each remarkable illustration--this is a book that is filled with wonderful impossibilities and magical imagination. Told in the great tradition of summer nights and front porch yarns, Harvey Potter's Balloon Farm will lift your spirit right off the ground, just as it does Harvey Potter. Harvey Potter was a very strange fellow indeed. He was a farmer but not like any farmer you've ever met. He didn't grow corn, okra, or tomatoes. Harvey Potter grew balloons. No one knew exactly how he did it, but with the help of the light of a full moon, one friendly child catches a peek of just how Harvey Potter does it. And keeps some magic for herself. "This is the best sort of fantasy imaginative, inventive, and believable. Harvey Potter is a wonder he's the owner of a genuine U.S. Government Inspected Balloon farm. And Nolen's tale about this man, narrated by the African-American girl who learns balloon-farming magic from him, is equally wondrous.... This title should sail onto every library shelf. May Nolen grow a bumper crop of books." School Library Journal. "Downright glorious." Publishers Weekly(starred review).

Book 3: Halloween Is the Time to Say I Love You When Jessye first met Reese, her fierce attraction to him set her mind and heart spinning. At the time, she was a wealthy high school senior who, on the surface, had everything she could want: a happy family life, a rich and handsome boyfriend, and a solid plan for her future. Reese was a community college student and the drummer in a local rock band. Their chance meeting stoked a desire in Jessye unlike anything she had ever felt before, and it churned her mind with questions. Should she stay on the path already chosen for her? Fulfill everyone’s expectations but her own? Or leap in a different direction and risk everything to be with Reese? But while Jessye hesitated, the time for decision making slipped away. Soon, life tore her and Reese in different directions, and she never saw him again. Now, seven years have passed. Jessye’s life hasn’t worked out the way she’d anticipated. She’s at a low point and has all but given up on her dreams for the future. She’s never forgotten Reese, but has never held out much hope for reconnecting with him, either. So, she’s shocked to run into him one day and learn he’s back in town to play one of the biggest shows of his career. Reese has transformed his passion for music into a successful living, and he’s performing as part of the celebrity wedding celebration currently taking Hillingham Hollow by storm. Even more surprising, Reese is single and still interested in Jessye. But Jessye’s grim circumstances have changed her. She’s anxious and wary, reluctant to believe in anything or anyone anymore, including Reese. Reese says he doesn’t mind. He likes a challenge. Jessye has serious doubts, but Reese’s determination is difficult to ignore. Seeing her again seems to have rekindled Reese’s longing to make her his—forever. But can he convince Jessye to trust again? To reopen her heart and give him another chance? If ever there were a perfect opportunity to reshape fate, this special weekend might be it. Because in Hillingham Hollow, Halloween Is the Time to Say I Love You. Content advisory for Book 3: Halloween Is the Time to Say I Love You: This story contains sexual references and sensual kissing. ____________________________ SERIES DESCRIPTION: Welcome to Hillingham Hollow, Texas, the wholesome Houston suburb where romance abounds, and magic is rumored to be in the air… Twenty-year-old Autumn Joy Alejandro is getting married. Somehow, the former Hillingham Hollow High homecoming queen and recent Harvest Festival Pumpkin Princess has managed to land one of the world’s most eligible bachelors, twenty-eight-year-old Gothic rock singer Corvin Covarrubias. When the tall, dark, and extraordinarily handsome star escorts his new bride-to-be back to the suburbs for their highly publicized wedding, all of Hillingham Hollow is immediately entranced. Autumn Joy is sweet and friendly, known for her almost angelic levels of kindness and generosity. Corvin is just the opposite, a worldly international celebrity with a dour image and devilish reputation, rumored to be a real-life vampire. The unusual pair captures the locals’ imaginations, and soon speculations about their alliance are swirling. According to many hopeful Hillingham singles, the “marriage of light and darkness” taking place in the heart of their community will be a charmed event, guaranteeing every guest their own happily-ever-after. Follow along as the weekend’s Halloween carnival extravaganza unfolds, and passion ignites throughout the ’burbs. Some couples will reunite after years apart, while others will meet for the very first time.

This board book edition is perfect for little hands. Every book needs you to turn the pages. But not every book needs you to tap it, shake it, jiggle it, or even blow it a kiss. Innovative and timeless, Tap the Magic Tree asks you to help one lonely tree change with the seasons. Now that’s interactive—and magical! It begins with a bare brown tree. But tap that tree, turn the page, and one bright green leaf has sprouted! Tap again—one, two, three, four—and four more leaves have grown on the next page. Pat, clap, wiggle, jiggle, and see blossoms bloom, apples grow, and the leaves swirl away with the autumn breeze. The collage-and-watercolor art evokes the bright simplicity of Lois Ehlert and Eric Carle and the interactive concept will delight fans of Pat the Bunny. Combining a playful spirit and a sense of wonder about nature, Christie Matheson has created a new modern classic that is a winner in every season—and every story time! And don't miss the follow-up, Touch the Brightest Star!
