Help children draw and think more creatively by inspiring them with interesting and challenging art prompts and questions. Invitation to Draw offers 99 open-ended drawing prompts, each one proposing a question to investigate that encourages children to free associate and problem solve. The perforated pages make it easy to tear out prompts for on-the-go activities or allowing multiple kids to draw at the same time. A blank cake provides the chance to decorate a dream confection, an empty house inspires stories about who lives there, and a grid of triangles supplies the chance to explore abstract art. What might be hiding in that tree? What sort of robot can you design? The possibilities are endless! Drawing prompts inspire and encourage kids to think and draw differently, and sometimes more creatively, than they might when faced with a blank page. By offering constraints such as a pair of eyes or an empty car and asking a question, children begin thinking about the possibilities and answering the question in their heads even before they put pen (or marker or crayon!) to paper. And through the act of drawing and observing the drawing unfold, the brain continues to think and problem solve, opening up all kinds of creative possibilities around that specific idea.

Fairies are real, and they're all around us! Award-winning author-illustrator Phoebe Wahl offers a fanciful and beautifully illustrated peek into the hidden world of fairies, sprites, and other magical creatures. A girl searches for fairies in her backyard and the woods beyond, following little clues and traces of magic. Fairies and other magical creatures can be found on every page, hidden among the flowers, trees and pebbles. But although readers can see them, the girl keeps searching, just one step behind... In the end, it is clear (both to the girl and readers) that there is magic all around, even when it's hidden in plain sight. Phoebe Wahl takes us deep into the world of fairies, and her vibrant, multi-textured woodland scenes are every bit as enchanting as the creatures therein. A gorgeously illustrated paean to imagination and the natural world. "Delightful . . . This gently magical outing will appeal not only to longtime lovers of European folklore, but also to fans of the popular "fairy door" phenomenon."--Kirkus Reviews

In Book 1, Left for Dead, a disaster of unknown origin and proportions wipes out most modern technology, causing self-driving cars to drive into other cars, people and buildings. Cell phones burst into flames, the power grid self destructs, and planes fall from the sky. Book 2, Steps Back follows former prison inmate Asher Latham and his fellow survivors as they try to find a way back to their loved ones and protect the lives of those around them. Asher Latham had been serving a life-sentence for murder in the State Penitentiary when the disaster struck. He and several of his fellow prison inmates somehow managed to not only survive a gas attack meted out by rogue military soldiers intended to kill all the inmates housed in the State Penitentiary, but afterwards, when left for dead, they even managed to break free from their icy tomb. They made a pact to do no harm and to help one another as they journeyed home. Bethany Johnson and her new friend Cooper survived insurmountable odds the day of the event and have managed to gather her family and neighbors and his roommates in his house. Together, they make the most of Cooper and his roommates computer hacking skills, working to find out who caused such a deadly disaster. Preston Raymore and Melinda Bowman had been making their way around town searching for much needed supplies when they were attacked by a murderous lunatic, having survived the attack they find two of his victims alive but they need help.
