Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Would you rather have one Santa or thirteen? Can You imagine having thirteen Santa Clauses? In Iceland, that is the case; for nearly two weeks, from December 11th through the 24th, children wake up each morning with a present or surprise. Icelandic children receive a visit from thirteen Yule Lads or Jólasveinar, as they are called in Icelandic, each night starting December 11th. The Yule Lads then leave in descending order starting on December 25th. Children leave their shoes on their windowsill each night, and the Yule Lads leave them a present. I wonder if the children's feet get bigger during Christmas. What a magical parade. Can you imagine the expense parents must go through? The story of the Yule Lads did not start so whimsical; instead, it was more foreboding and scarier. The story of the Yule Lads is centuries old. They come from different stories within Norse mythology that have evolved. In this tale, the Lads are now less scary but generate just as much mayhem. I have created an American adaptation to tell their tale.

Book excerpt: From the national bestselling author of Alice comes a familiar story with a dark hook—a tale about Peter Pan and the friend who became his nemesis, a nemesis who may not be the blackhearted villain Peter says he is… There is one version of my story that everyone knows. And then there is the truth. This is how it happened. How I went from being Peter Pan’s first—and favorite—lost boy to his greatest enemy. Peter brought me to his island because there were no rules and no grownups to make us mind. He brought boys from the Other Place to join in the fun, but Peter's idea of fun is sharper than a pirate’s sword. Because it’s never been all fun and games on the island. Our neighbors are pirates and monsters. Our toys are knife and stick and rock—the kinds of playthings that bite. Peter promised we would all be young and happy forever. Peter lies.
