She’s too old to play Grandma’s silly games!

Written and illustrated by Lizzy Stewart, Nora’s grandma’s garden becomes a paradise filled by fluttering wings, a deep and dangerous jungle, and even a polar fishing pond. The wonderfully independent Nora, accompanied by her best friend Jeff the Giraffe, gradually discovers the fun of imagining in this instant classic. This magical picture book about imagination and play will spark the interest of every child.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom the Booker Prize winner and national bestselling author, reflections on gardening, art, literature, and life Penelope Lively takes up her key themes of time and memory, and her lifelong passions for art, literature, and gardening in this philosophical and poetic memoir. From the courtyards of her childhood home in Cairo to a family cottage in Somerset, to her own gardens in Oxford and London, Lively conducts an expert tour, taking us from Eden to Sissinghurst and into her own backyard, traversing the lives of writers like Virginia Woolf and Philip Larkin while imparting her own sly and spare wisdom. "Her body of work proves that certain themes never go out of fashion," writes the New York Times Book Review, as true of this beautiful volume as of the rest of the Lively canon. Now in her eighty-fourth year, Lively muses, "To garden is to elide past, present, and future; it is a defiance of time."

The sisters begin to wonder if Ana really is haunting them, trying to send them a message—and what exactly she’s trying to say. In a stunning follow-up to her National Book Award–longlisted novel All the Wind in the World, Samantha Mabry weaves an aching, magical novel that is one part family drama, one part ghost story, and one part love story.
