"Hey, Pirate. What are you doing in my sandbox?" "I'm not a pirate. I'm the captain of a ship." What is Captain doing in Dragon's sandbox? He is moping. Because he's lost his ship. "Oh, no! I'll help you find it! Come on!" "Where are we going?" "To my cave! I know I have a map somewhere."Armed with a (toy watch) compass, a (paper-towel tube) telescope, and a (hand-drawn) map, Dragon and Captain set off on a great adventure. Dragon is a boy in pajamas and a dragon robe. Captain is a boy with a three-sided hat. But as the boys' imaginations take over, we see them as they see themselves and the backyard as the boys see it: a dark forest, a craggy cliff, and the immense sea. Illustrated like a comic book, this book is a fantasy-filled graphic novel for the picture book set. Young readers will be enchanted with—and parents will appreciate—the creative backyard play, in which the boys use the simplest found items and the backyard features to create an elaborate adventure. Can Dragon and Captain find the lost ship before lunch?

(Paper Back Cover) Captain Otway Burns and his ship Snap Dragon explores the legends, facts, and misguided information of Captain Otway Burns' life. As a native son of southeastern North Carolina he was a merchant sea Captain, highly successful War of 1812 Privateer, noted businessman, and an inventive ship builder. Later in life Burns was a strong state legislator, but like most of his life, his service to his state and country was controversial. Myth and fact have merged since Captain Burns' death in 1850. Using fragments of information along with long forgotten documents, compiled with material gained from newly located direct descendents, this book attempts to capture a more accurate description of Captain Burns and his adventurous life. If you enjoy good stories of Tall Ship Naval battles, or are intrigued with local legends, this book is for you.

Since bursting onto the scene in the mid ‘70s, the pop duo Captain and Tennille have long defined the sparkling, optimistic idea of everlasting love, both in their music and through their image as a happy and, seemingly, unbreakable couple. They were an irresistible pair to millions of fans all over the world, further underscored by the rousing “yes, we can!” gospel of their biggest hit, “Love Will Keep Us Together.” But underneath the image was an entirely different story that the fans never saw: a woman who fought a lonely struggle against the controlling and often bizarre behavior of her emotionally inaccessible husband. Toni Tennille: A Memoir is a visceral account of Toni Tennille’s life from her childhood in the segregated South to her thrilling rise to fame in the world of pop music to where she is now: no longer one-half of a famed couple, but a stronger woman for all she has experienced—both the good and the bad. Toni hopes that her story will help anyone who feels trapped in a toxic relationship realize that it is never too late to break away from it.

At last, her eagerly awaited sequel has arrived—and with it comes an epic battle between humans and dragons. The kingdom of Goredd: a world where humans and dragons share life with an uneasy balance, and those few who are both human and dragon must hide the truth. Seraphina is one of these, part girl, part dragon, who is reluctantly drawn into the politics of her world.

Right man... right time... Captain Liam O'Dare finds himself talking with a sea dragon. Not just any sea dragon, but the lord of them all, Skelaroth. The sea dragon brings information and a request to aid in Liam's decades-long quest to bring the pirate Fisk to justice. Not only is Fisk a murderer many times over, but now he's stolen a dangerous artifact that could unbalance the entire world. It must be retrieved at any cost. With the mighty sea dragon trailing the wake of his ship, Liam sets out on the pirate's trail. Right woman... right man... Lady Rivka of the Black Dragon Clan, Jinn warrior and huntress, sets out after the pirate, but she's not a sailor and she needs a cunning seaman with a fast ship to follow where Fisk has gone. Landing on Liam's ship in her compact black dragon form surprises him, but there's no other way but to reveal her shapeshifting secret. She gives him the information she has and he agrees to have her help on his quest. Liam is stunned by the dragon who turns into one of the most compelling women he's ever seen. She is fierce and no-nonsense when it comes to her quest. He likes that and knows he can work with her. But can he resist the temptation of her? He's been true to the memory of his late wife for a very long time, but Rivka gets under his skin from almost the first moment he becomes aware of her amazing secret ability to shift from dragon to woman and back again.

In the final battle, it will take all three of them - plus the help of a mysterious virkin friend. Will they prevail? Will Liam find his justice and the missing artifact? And will Liam and Rivka have a chance at a future of love and joy? Or, will it all turn to fiery dragon ash before their very eyes?
