Time-traveling twins chase time's greatest villain--and a shocking family mystery--to Ancient Egypt in this high stakes, hilarious, and action-packed thrill ride from #1 bestselling author James Patterson.



Orphans Pew and Basket Church managed to escape (barely) the clutches of time's greatest villain and dash his hopes of world domination (he didn't take too kindly to that). Even more shocking than discovering they can travel through time (and have a mission to protect it)? It turns out the Church family treasure their enigmatic time-traveling parents left behind is actually a long-lost, much-wished for relative.



The twins follow clues and riddles to Ancient Egypt--and land right in the middle of a deadly power struggle between Cleopatra and her brother, Ptolemy. To save their new friends and preserve history, the twins will need to solve riddles and thwart the dastardly Pirate Macaulay's evil plans. If they manage to survive, they just might find the one treasure more precious and elusive to them than anything: family.



Adventure, mystery, history, and humor collide in this rollicking, rip-roaring caper from the world's favorite storyteller.

When Mona the Mouse stumbles across the wondrous world of the Heartwood Hotel in the middle of a storm, she desperately hopes they'll let her stay. As it turns out, Mona is precisely the maid they need at the grandest hotel in Fernwood Forest, where animals come from far and wide for safety, luxury, and comfort. But the Heartwood Hotel is not all acorn soufflé and soft moss-lined beds. Danger lurks, and as it approaches, Mona finds that this hotel is more than a warm place to spend the night. It might also be a home.

A brave mouse, a covetous rat, a wishful serving girl, and a princess named Pea come together in Kate DiCamillo's Newbery Medal–winning tale.

Welcome to the story of Despereaux Tilling, a mouse who is in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea. It is also the story of a rat called Roscuro, who lives in the darkness and covets a world filled with light. And it is the story of Miggery Sow, a slow-witted serving girl who harbors a simple, impossible wish. These three characters are about to embark on a journey that will lead them down into a horrible dungeon, up into a glittering castle, and, ultimately, into each other's lives. What happens then? As Kate DiCamillo would say: Reader, it is your destiny to find out. 
With black-and-white illustrations and a refreshed cover by Timothy Basil Ering.

Gwen has a destiny to fulfill, but no one will tell her what it is.
She's only recently learned that she is the Ruby, the final member of the time-traveling Circle of Twelve, and since then nothing has been going right. She suspects the founder of the Circle, Count Saint-German, is up to something nefarious, but nobody will believe her. And she's just learned that her charming time-traveling partner, Gideon, has probably been using her all along.
Emerald Green is the stunning conclusion to Kerstin Gier's Ruby Red Trilogy, picking up where Sapphire Blue left off, reaching new heights of intrigue and romance as Gwen finally uncovers the secrets of the time-traveling society and learns her fate.

Stella: Ranch Patrol is a new Dogs with a Purpose adventure from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Dog's Purpose, W. Bruce Cameron!

Some dogs were born to lend a helping hand (or paw!)

Stella, a corgi puppy, is one of them. With her natural herding instincts and big attitude, Mateo thinks she’ll be the perfect new addition to his family’s ranch!

But Mateo’s family isn’t convinced. They wanted a big, tough livestock guardian dog, not this tiny creature! She’s more likely to become lunch for the coyotes than to help run the ranch. And it doesn’t matter anyway; Mateo’s father, Werner, has decided to sell the ranch. 

To save their home, Stella and Mateo must prove that even the smallest and youngest members of a family can make the biggest difference. Can they rise to the challenge?

Stella: Ranch Patrol is another fun, heartwarming Dogs with a Purpose adventure that will introduce young readers to the hard work of herding dogs.

Gwyneth must now unearth the mystery of why her mother would lie about her birth date to ward off suspicion about her ability, brush up on her history, and work with Gideon—the time traveler from a similarly gifted family that passes the gene through its male line, and whose presence becomes, in time, less insufferable and more essential.

Kerstin Gier's Ruby Red is young adult novel full of fantasy and romance.

Solve the clues. Face your fears. Survive the Trials.



All Alice Liddell wants is to escape her Normal life in Oxford and find the parents who abandoned her ten years ago. But she gets more than she bargained for when her older sister Charlotte is arrested for having the infamous Wonder Gene--the key to unlocking the curious Wonderland Reality.



Soon, Alice receives a rather cryptic invitation to play for Team Heart in this year's annual--and often deadly--Wonderland Trials. Now she has less than twenty-four hours to find her way into Wonderland where nothing is impossible . . . or what it seems.



The stakes are raised when she discovers players go missing during the Trials each year. Will she and her team solve the clues and find the missing players? Or will betrayal and distrust win, leaving Alice alone in a world of her own? Follow the White Rabbit into this topsy-turvy fantasy where players become prey, a sip of the wrong tea might as well be poison, and a queen's ways do not always lead one where they ought to go.

Step through the looking glass. Slay the Jabberwock. Seek the King.



Alice is not prepared to face what awaits beyond the Tulgey Wood. When she and the rest of Team Heart enter the fourth and final Wonderland Trial, it's up to her to lead them to victory. But this Trial is more than a game. If Alice and the others fail to defeat the Jabberwock and reveal the truth about Wonderland, more than points and fame will be lost.



Chess Shire never believed he'd make it this far. Now he's stuck navigating a Trial he's seen but doesn't remember, all while searching for the brother he left behind. Not everything is as black and white as the game that shares his name. And if Alice discovers his deepest regret? Chess might just lose her too.



Apart, Chess and Alice scour the eight squares of the Heart Trial in search of memories, truth, and an Ivory King who seems more illusion than reality. Will they learn to lead together to face their greatest fears? Or will they remain pawns in a queen's game, never truly seeing the Wonderland they've come to believe in?

The Eighth Story. Nineteen Years Later. Based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Jack Thorne, a play by Jack Thorne.

It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and father of three school-age children.

While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son, Albus, must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: Sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

The playscript for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child was originally released as a "special rehearsal edition" alongside the opening of Jack Thorne's play in London's West End in summer 2016. Based on an original story by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Jack Thorne, the play opened to rapturous reviews from theatergoers and critics alike, while the official playscript became an immediate global bestseller.

A fun, light-hearted, and sweet teen romance, perfect for fans of Kasie West. When her childhood best friend turned enemy arrives back in town after three years, a girl must decide whether to hold onto that grudge or open her heart and finally forgive.

After a recent string of bad luck, Emma's parents send her to live with grandma for the fall semester in their Carlton Landing vacation home. Never mind that she swore never to return.

But during her small-town banishment, she's decided to focus on a few simple things: school work, finishing her novel, and, most importantly, arranging a chance meeting with the cute carpenter next door.

But her plans blow off course when Bryson, her childhood best friend, arrives.

Sure, he's tall and cute and has grown up in a very good way, but three years ago, she promised to hate him forever. She intends to steer clear but soon finds this tiny town won't let her avoid him...or the nagging feeling that she has it all wrong. He was the one to blame for their broken friendship...right?

Is he merely a distraction from her carefully laid plans with the carpenter, or will Bryson convince her to break that promise to herself and finally forgive?

The Golden Hour is a dual-point-of-view, sweet teen romance book with small-town charm, cozy lake vibes, and a nod to Jane Austen. Don't miss out on this fun and sweet romance book for teens, tweens, or anyone.

Gwen's life has been a rollercoaster since she discovered she was the Ruby, the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of Twelve. In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she's been trying to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean.

At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything. Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he's very warm indeed; the next he's freezing cold. Gwen's not sure what's going on there, but she's pretty much destined to find out.

Sapphire Blue is the second book in the Ruby Red Trilogy from Kerstin Gier.

Sometimes, love is messy.

The last thing Morgan wants is to spend one of her final weekends before school starts at a wedding in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere. But that's exactly what she's doing since her favorite childhood babysitter is getting married.

Maybe it won't be so bad-more of a relaxing getaway. But then they introduce her to him.

Will Jameson. Tall. Super cute. And sweet. Or so they say. A younger cousin to the groom, he's also around for the wedding.

But...they've already met. Briefly. When he spilled blue slush all over her at a gas station.

It wasn't a great first impression. And now, the bride and groom are trying to set them up.

It's a good thing Morgan swore off dating. Because there's no way she's interested.

Right?

Kasie West fans will love this sweet teen rom-com with small-town charm and cozy summertime lake vibes. The My Favorite Color novels are dual-point-of-view, clean romance books for teens, tweens, or anyone.
