Book excerpt: Differences are gorgeously illustrated in a heartwarming picture book about a colorless peacock who learns to love himself in a jungle full of color. Mo has always felt a little different. While all the other peacocks grew bright, bold, beautiful feathers in rich greens and vibrant blues, Mo's feathers grew in a snowy white. And even though Mo's friends try to include him in their playtime, Mo doesn't like to be reminded that he's different from his friends. But when a storm threatens to ruin the group's annual celebration, Mo must learn to stand tall, strut his stuff, and shake his brilliantly glowing tail feathers--in a way only he can--to help his friends and set things right. From debut author Sita Singh, and brought to life by Stephanie Fizer Coleman, comes a story about finding strength in the things that make us different, and beauty in all its forms.

Book excerpt: In her entertaining and edifying New York Times bestseller, acclaimed author Francine Prose invites you to sit by her side and take a guided tour of the tools and tricks of the masters to discover why their work has endured. Written with passion, humour and wisdom, Reading Like a Writer will inspire readers to return to literature with a fresh eye and an eager heart – to take pleasure in the long and magnificent sentences of Philip Roth and the breathtaking paragraphs of Isaac Babel; to look to John le Carré for a lesson in how to advance plot through dialogue and to Flannery O’ Connor for the cunning use of the telling detail; to be inspired by Emily Brontë ’ s structural nuance and Charles Dickens’ s deceptively simple narrative techniques. Most importantly, Prose cautions readers to slow down and pay attention to words, the raw material out of which all literature is crafted, and reminds us that good writing comes out of good reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wicked shaman traps a golden eagle and disguises her as a phoenix. She is to be a pawn in his villainous scheme to swindle the townsfolk out of their money, but will he succeed? 'The Phoenix & The Peacock' is an atheist short story for teenagers. They will enjoy the use of rhyme, the emotive plot and the inclusion of some remarkable birds as metaphors. It is also subtly educational. Not only does it introduce the philosophies of both science and humanism but, through the comfortable medium of exciting fiction, it gently warns of the dangers of ultra-religious cults. The book's goal is to be light, engaging and thought-provoking; to succeed in conveying a message where a long prescriptive factual tome would surely bore and fail. At the end there is a 'Did You Know?' section full of interesting scientific facts related to the story, including an explanation of Darwin's Theory of Evolution. 11+ years
