Lavender Pearl's wealthy parents disappear while on an expedition to Egypt in 1907. When Scotland Yard fails to apprehend any suspects, the 13-year-old heiress to a tea fortune appears next in line to vanish. Lavender and her governess, Miss Eliza Fitzmitten, hire up-and-comer detective, Archer Marbury, and his associate Lord Shadforth, to find the Pearl parents. Will Marbury and Lord Shadforth find them before the young ladies are whisked off to scavenge seaweed and hunt for the elusive giant glowing seahorse with Lavender's uncle, marine scientist Dr. S.J. Whirly, and his ship's shady captain and crew? Or will this be an expedition from which they, too, do not return? This is the first book in a mystery series set in Edwardian England. REVIEWS A Case of Considerable Consequence by Tina Koenig is the first in a new mystery series and it's a great start. Set in Edwardian England and Cairo, it's an action-packed story that will excite all readers as it takes them on a fun yet tense hunt for Lavender's family and the truth. The characters are wonderfully introduced in this first book, developed in a way that means we get to know who they are and they are likable. Our main protagonist is a spunky girl, full of adventure and determined to find the truth but her journey is fraught with danger. We meet a wide range of people, from cool detectives to evil captains, and it's kind of like a good vs. bad story but with very different characters to those we normally see in this type of story. Ms. Koenig has clearly done her homework on the different places and the era the story is set in and her writing draws you in with its plot twists and suspense. A fun story for young adults, and I look forward to reading the next Lavender Pearl mystery story. - Reviewed by Anne-Marie Reynolds for Readers' Favorite In A Case of Considerable Consequence, Tina Koenig gives us an action-packed, surprise-filled young adult mystery featuring talented teenager Lavender Pearl, the women's rights activist Eliza Fitzmitten, and super sleuth investigators Archer Marbury and Lord William Shadforth. This first installment provides much, and it promises more. Each well-written chapter moves at a good pace, unveiling the inner motivations and interconnected workings of the characters who may present a threat to Lavender and be implicated in the disappearance of her parents. From a near lion attack to a near accident with a driverless carriage; to the financial woes of Lavender's uncle, his ship's captain, and her parents' business partner; to smuggling, counterfeiting, kidnapping, and intended murder; to a secret marriage, deceptions, and disguises, this book has it all. - Reviewed by Kimberlee J Benart for Readers' Favorite Lavender Pearl is an appealing young protagonist equipped with intelligence, adventures, and a variety of experiences. It's a well-organized story that revolves around positive themes of patience, courage, instinct, just retribution, and the viler ones which are deception, double-dealing, and greed. It is both fast-paced and thrilling, but not lacking in reflective, internal moments for dialogues and the use of the characters' memories for recalling past events that fill in pertinent details of the story. The book's chapters are just the right length to hold young readers' attention and encourage them to read all the way through to the end. Author Tina Koenig expertly blends simple contemporary language that can be followed by young readers and enables them to appreciate some historical elements that are similarly found in our present times, thus connecting the past with the present. This book is an overall good novel to recommend for young adults between the ages of 12 and 18 who like cozy mysteries, adventures, unexpected revelations, ingenuity, and cliffhangers.- Reviewed by Carmen Tenorio for Readers' Favorite

"...Breathtaking skill ... interesting dialogue, a carefully constructed story, and an appealing message. Bixby should be better known." -Gary WestfahlJerome Bixby (1923-1998) was a highly regarded professional science fiction magazine editor and writer remembered for his "yeoman work in raising the standards of the science fiction action story, whose own stories, though few, are much sought after by discriminating readers." (Science Fiction Stories, 1953). Mirror, Mirror, the first collection of Jerome Bixby's science fiction in nearly fifty years, showcases the best work from this motion picture and television writer's journeyman years as a pulp magazine writer.It features four stories made immortal by their adaptation for Star Trek and The Twilight Zone. Elements from two of these stories, "One-Way Street" and "Mirror, Mirror," were woven into Bixby's Hugo Award winning Star Trek episode, which gave birth to the evil mirror universe populated by sinister facsimiles of Kirk, Spock, the crew of the Enterprise, and the entire Federation. Another, "Cargo to Calisto", became the basis for the Star Trek episode "By Any Other Name". Meanwhile, "It's a Good Life" won immortality as an episode of the The Twilight Zone. Plus eleven more irresistible science fictional masterpieces from the pen of Jerome Bixby.Mirror, Mirror was edited, and is personally introduced, by his son, screenwriter and producer Emerson Bixby.

The railway signal-man of the title tells the narrator of a ghost that has been haunting him. Each spectral appearance precedes a tragic event on the railway on which the signalman works. The signalman's work is at a signal-box in a deep cutting near a tunnel entrance on a lonely stretch of the railway line, and he controls the movements of passing trains. When there is danger, his fellow signalmen alert him by telegraph and alarms. Three times, he receives phantom warnings of danger when his bell rings in a fashion that only he can hear. Each warning is followed by the appearance of the spectre, and then by a terrible accident.

The Hippie Revival Revival is a collection of writings about the spiritual resurgence of the hippie counterculture. Like the original hippies of the 1960's and 70's, Forrest Rivers shares with us his vision for humanity that rests on the core values of peace, unity, and love. Additional themes that are also addressed in these writings include: the sacredness of nature, the use of entheogenic plants for personal insight, the intersection of social revolution and spirituality, and a questioning of the meaning behind "progress". These writings are also something of an homage to those early hippies who dared to dream of a better and more peaceful world. Sit back, enjoy, and allow this book to uplift your soul!

Watch for a video tribute to Lloyd on the @discoversaipan Youtube channel at https: //www.youtube.com/@discoversaipan Born in California on December 28th, 1923, Lloyd Glick was a naive 18-year-old boy watching a movie at a theater in downtown Berkeley on Dec 7 1941, when the movie was interrupted to announce Japan's bombing of Pearl Harbor. A few days after the attack, Lloyd, already an accomplished trumpet player as 2nd Trumpet Chair for the University of California Symphony, took his desire to serve his country, his passion for music, and his dream of attending the prestigious US Naval School of Music, and showed up at the Navy recruiting office in San Francisco. Four months later, with his parents' signed permission, he joined the United States Navy as a way of entering their prestigious Naval School program. That decision would ultimately land him the position of Musician Second Class aboard the USS North Carolina as a member of the ship's band while it participated in the bombings of Saipan, Guam, Palau, Pohnpei, and battles throughout World War II's pivotal Pacific Campaign. From Bugle Boy to Battleship is Lloyd's fascinating account of his two years at sea, as well as his hero's welcome return to visit the islands of Saipan and Guam 70 years later. From Bugle Boy to Battleship includes the actual emails that also tell the story of the unique relationship between Lloyd and his "tour guide" --an author living on Saipan--who became inspired by their correspondence to help Lloyd document his story for this and future generations.

Long ago in the Jurassic age, 150 million years before the present day, a strange and wonderful assortment of dinosaurs lived on Earth. This was tens of millions of years before the time of dinosaur "superstars" like triceratops and tyrannosaurus, but there were plenty of famous, interesting animals alive at that time, too. Stegosaurus was one of these - a bus sized creature with two rows of plates sticking up along its back like the frill on the spine of a legendary dragon. Besides the rows of plates on its back, stegosaurus had big spikes on its tail that look a lot like the barbs on a medieval knight's mace. In this book, you'll learn all about what made this massive giant great--from what they looked like and ate to where they lived and what they did all day.KidCaps is an imprint of BookCaps; each month we are adding more history books (just for kids!) to our library.

This book will help you understand the redemptive story of the Old Testament through six major periods: Creation, Abraham, Sinai, Kings, Exile and Temple, with the first letter of each heading making up the word CASKET. This acronym will enable you to memorize the storyline of the Old Testament and place key events, people and biblical books in their correct time period. The author takes you through each period step by step, explaining the major covenants and highlighting the most important people, events, and biblical themes. As you become familiar with storyline of the Old Testament you will learn that God's redemptive plan is climactically fulfilled in the New Testament with the coming Messiah. The acronym for the entire Bible is CASKET EMPTY, therefore, which points to the empty tomb of Jesus as the beginning of God's new creation, the assurance that death has been defeated, and the guarantee of our resurrection yet to come. Through the acronym CASKET EMPTY you will have a framework for remembering the entire sweep of the Bible with the person and work of Christ at the center.
