Jeffrey Turner, the author and illustrator of the witty and wonderful Who Broke the Vase? returns with a story about a rabbit who believes he can be anything he imagines. But when he meets a bat hanging upside down from a tree, he finds out he’s not the only one who thinks that way! This clever tale is a little bit Duck Rabbit mixed with a little bit of Not a Box, two bestselling books about imagination and make-believe. This fresh and original, boldly illustrated story also acts as an interactive game with a new animal mask and animal sound on every page.

In an era of cynicism and divisiveness, the tale of this young angel who refused to give up hope combined with the simple act of a young father doing what he ought to do—standing by his ailing daughter through thick and thin—set the social-media world into a whirlwind of positivity. Their inspirational story made the sports world (and the celebrity world alongside it) sit up and smile at the ESPYs. It grabbed the attention of audiences far outside of sports, too, on the Today Show and Good Morning America, and in the pages of People magazine, US Weekly, and more. Everyone seemed to want to know one thing: How did this dad and his little girl find a way to smile through the pain, and to keep fighting even when everything seemed to be going against them? The news media fell in love with the message and told the story the best they could in sound bites and interview clips, and yet the millions of readers and viewers who watched it all unfold in real time are still hungering for more. To Devon Still and his daughter, this wasn’t just a story. This was their test. This was their faith on the line. And this book is their chance to show the world just how powerful faith can be. It’s their chance to show people there’s always reason for hope—and to give them some actionable steps they can take to better their own lives, right now.

The ultimate battle starts now! For four thousand years, creatus have hidden their existence, believing their strength and diet would frighten humans into hunting them to extinction. But now a faction of militaristic creatus has a weapon, a breed of creatus so fierce that its legacy of death and destruction has fed nightmares for millennia. Unwilling to be a pawn, Vev moved her family so the youngest members won’t be a danger to humans or used by rogue creatus. But she’s lonely. Her heart belongs to a man who shattered it. As much as she wants to mend her heart and be with Arthur again, she must train the young creatus. Wanting to see Arthur and prove she can move on, Vev sneaks into town only to learn of the new threat. With the strange venom running through her blood, Vev alone has the power to stop the new breed—by creating an army of creatus capable of protecting humans from annihilation. But sometimes you can’t control what you create. What readers are saying about the Creatus series: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This story is completely unique, and is definitely not generic sex and vampires. In fact, I think Creatus will redefine the paranormal genre. Creatus has intrigue, suspense, romance, and tremendous depth." – Goodreads (Creatus) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This book could easily classify itself as romance / mystery / suspense / thriller... I'm not a big Twilight fan, but I did enjoy the first movie... I found Creatus reminding me somewhat of Twilight, but with actors I loved." -- New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Linda S. Prather (Creatus) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "There are twists and turns in the rogue plot that started in the first book, Creatus, along with revelations…" – New York Times bestselling author Jaime Rush (Creatus Rogue) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "One of my favorite things about this book and the series in general is that it's written in a way that feels entirely plausible. The explanations and the science all make sense. We could very well have a race of people called Creatus blending in with us average humans." – Goodreads (Creatus Talis) The Creatus series is based on the myths you've heard your entire life.
