Описание: A Newbery Medalist and a Caldecott Medalist join forces to give an overscheduled princess a day off -- and a deliciously wicked crocodile a day on. Princess Cora is sick of boring lessons. She's sick of running in circles around the dungeon gym. She's sick, sick, sickof taking three baths a day. And her parents won't let her have a dog. But when she writes to her fairy godmother for help, she doesn't expect that help to come in the form of a crocodile--a crocodile who does not behave properly. With perfectly paced dry comedy, children's book luminaries Laura Amy Schlitz and Brian Floca send Princess Cora on a delightful outdoor adventure -- climbing trees getting dirty having fun -- while her alter ego wreaks utter havoc inside the castle, obliging one pair of royal helicopter parents to reconsider their ways.

Описание: From 2008 Newbery Medalist Laura Amy Schlitz comes an exhilarating adventure -- and a thoroughly original fairy who is a true force of nature. What would happen to a fairy if she lost her wings and could no longer fly? Flory, a young night fairy no taller than an acorn and still becoming accustomed to her wings -- wings as beautiful as those of a luna moth -- is about to find out. What she discovers is that the world is very big and very dangerous. But Flory is fierce and willing to do whatever it takes to survive. If that means telling others what to do -- like Skuggle, a squirrel ruled by his stomach -- so be it. Not every creature, however, is as willing to bend to Flory's demands. Newbery Medal winner Laura Amy Schlitz and world-renowned illustrator and miniaturist Angela Barrett venture into the realm of the illustrated classic -- a classic entirely and exquisitely of their making, and a magnificent adventure.

Описание: WINNER OF A 2013 NEWBERY HONOR Newbery Medalist Laura Amy Schlitz brings her sorcery to a Victorian gothic thriller -- an enthralling, darkly comic tale that would do Dickens proud. The master puppeteer, Gaspare Grisini, is so expert at manipulating his stringed puppets that they appear alive. Clara Wintermute, the only child of a wealthy doctor, is spellbound by Grisini's act and invites him to entertain at her birthday party. Seeing his chance to make a fortune, Grisini accepts and makes a splendidly gaudy entrance with caravan, puppets, and his two orphaned assistants. Lizzie Rose and Parsefall are dazzled by the Wintermute home. Clara seems to have everything they lack -- adoring parents, warmth, and plenty to eat. In fact, Clara's life is shadowed by grief, guilt, and secrets. When Clara vanishes that night, suspicion of kidnapping falls upon the puppeteer and, by association, Lizzie Rose and Parsefall. As they seek to puzzle out Clara's whereabouts, Lizzie and Parse uncover Grisini's criminal past and wake up to his evil intentions. Fleeing London, they find themselves caught in a trap set by Grisini's ancient rival, a witch with a deadly inheritance to shed before it's too late. Newbery Medal winner Laura Amy Schlitz's Victorian gothic is a rich banquet of dark comedy, scorching magic, and the brilliant and bewitching storytelling that is her trademark.
You woke up today. You chose to read this and now you have to choose what you will do with the rest of your day. Will you give in to the temptations of overindulgence that we all face each day?
Whether it is is food, alcohol, drugs, shopping, gambling, social media or some other self-harming behavior, will you choose to do what you were created to do? It's hard to change. We all need HOPE. Fortunately, because God created us for His purposes He will give us the Help, Opportunity, Praise and Encouragement (HOPE) to make the right choices. He will speak to us all, as He did to Linda Larson Schlitz in this book, and tell us how to do it. You only need to open the pages of Speak to Me God I'm Listening and take one day at a time. One step at a time. One verse at a time. Do that 365 times in the next year and you will have such an intimate relationship with your creator that you will change the world around you without even trying. Are you ready to find God's purpose for your life and enjoy the power to carry it out? Then open the book and listen. God will speak to you too.
Linda Larson Schlitz has a master's degree in counseling and has been providing HOPE to others for 43 years since she came to a spiritual awakening through reading the Bible and praying for God to speak to her in a way she could understand. Linda heard God and since then she has been used throughout the world to change lives by her own example of overcoming adversity. She is the recipient of the 2010 Red Cross Hometown Hero Award, the prestigious Athena Award and commendations from past Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin for "being an excellent role model for others to follow," and "contributing to the well-being and quality of life for the citizens of Wisconsin."
ENDORSEMENTS "Addictions go deep. They're not simply behavior choices. Rather, they're a result of our identity--the way we see ourselves. In Speak to Me God I'm Listening, Linda shares her conversations with God that bring about renewed hope and fresh faith. Be ready to see yourself with new eyes and get unstuck in the process. --Kary Oberbrunner, author of Your Secret Name."
