A Beguiling Adventure into The World of Fairy. Developed in Ireland in and around the countryside surrounding the family's ancestral town of Tournafulla, County Limerick, Ireland. "Where the Fairy Tree lives on the Magic Road.” Let your imagination take you into the world of real fairies, where it comes alive in the adventures of a New Jersey family caught up in saving their father or becoming lost in a realm of magic. Things just haven't been the same for Harold and Megan since their father mysteriously disappeared. But one night, a ghostly visitor tells Harold that his father is being held captive by a mad gnome named Gagledormius, somewhere in Ireland. To find the lair of the mad gnome. Harold must solve a riddle. Harold loses all hope: he hates puzzles of all kinds. But a magical box that belonged to his father may hold a clue. When Harold relates his strange tale to his family, his mother refuses to believe it and thinks Harold is making up stories to console himself for the loss of his father. But Megan knows there's more to it. Against their mother's wishes, Harold and Megan turn to their classmates for help. But when nobody can solve the riddle, they must convince their mother that their father is in danger. They must travel to Ireland to seek the help of relatives and friends. Little do they know what awaits them on the Emerald Isle: the mad gnome is the enemy of fairy folk. Will they receive any special help from the Mayor of the Leprechauns, as well as a surprise visitor who appears when hope is lost? Will Harold and Megan find their father and rescue him before time runs out? Follow the family across an ocean and into a magical world as they explore their first adventure into the realm of enchantment.

Intrepid international explorer, biologist, and photographer Mark W. Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different scale and a faster tempo. Moffett’s spectacular close-up photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can observe ants in familiar roles; warriors, builders, big-game hunters, and slave owners. We find them creating marketplaces and assembly lines and dealing with issues we think of as uniquely human—including hygiene, recycling, and warfare. Adventures among Ants introduces some of the world’s most awe-inspiring species and offers a startling new perspective on the limits of our own perception. • Ants are world-class road builders, handling traffic problems on thoroughfares that dwarf our highway systems in their complexity • Ants with the largest societies often deploy complicated military tactics • Some ants have evolved from hunter-gatherers into farmers, domesticating other insects and growing crops for food
