THE WINNER OF a National Book Award, a Newbery Honor, and countless other awards has written her richest, most spirited book yet, filled with characters that readers will love, and never forget.
Jane is 12 years old, and she is ready for adventures, to move beyond the world of her siblings and single mother and their house by the sea, and step into the "know-not what." And, over the summer, adventures do seem to find Jane, whether it's a thrilling ride in a hot-air balloon, the appearances of a slew of possible fathers, or a weird new friendship with a preacher and psychic wannabe. Most important, there's Jane's discovery of what lies at the heart of all great adventures: that it's not what happens to you that matters, but what you learn about yourself.
And don't miss Polly Horvath's Northward to the Moon, the sequel to My One Hundred Adventures.

Paddy, der kleine Pirat
Paddy, der kleine Pirat, lebt mit seinen Freunden, der Schildkröte Kröte und dem Papagei Bo, auf einer kleinen Insel. Ihre Zeit vertreiben sie sich mit Spielen rund um das Piratenhaus. Doch plötzlich wird die idyllische Dreisamkeit von einer einfallenden Piratengang gestört. Die wollen Paddys Insel einnehmen und dort ihre Schätze vergraben. Aber Paddy weiß sich zu helfen: Er erinnert die Eroberer daran, dass sich Piraten auf gar keinen Fall selbst überfallen dürfen. Die anderen bezweifeln, dass er ein richtiger Pirat ist. Sie stellen ihn auf die Probe. Hat er eine Augenklappe? Ein Schiff? Eine Piratenflagge? Und einen Schatz? Letzteres fehlt Paddy leider noch - zum eigenen Bedauern. Also macht sich der mutige kleine Pirat gemeinsam mit Kröte auf die Suche nach einem Schatz - und entdeckt dabei Dinge, die viel wertvoller sind als Gold ...
Talk about out of the frying pan, into the fire! I was pretty sure that my freaky stepsister and that freaky field guide of hers would ruin my life. But now it looks like they're going to ruin all of Florida, too! Okay, maybe that's not fair. Maybe all these stupid giants would be waking up anyway, but if it wasn't for her and that book, I'd be home playing video games and this would be someone else's giant problem!
It's supposed to be a happy day at the Magic Kingdom - the teenage holographic hosts have returned. But things go very wrong when a sudden lightning storm disrupts the celebration, and Amanda's mysterious sister, Jez, disappears. The only clue is the sighting of a wild monkey in the Magic Kingdom during the storm. The mystery deepens as Finn is contacted by Wayne, an old man he hasn't heard from in months. Wayne tells Finn that there's trouble at the Animal Kingdom: the evil Overtakers have gained control of one of the computer servers that will be used to operate Daylight Holographic Imaging there. That means if any of the holographic hosts fall asleep, they will go into comas - permanently. Filled with action and brimming with the same meticulous detail as The Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark (also available in audio from Brilliance Audio), this second audiobook in the series - Disney at Dawn - is the result of hands-on research behind the scenes at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park. Younger and older listeners alike will get a glimpse into a second Disney kingdom. The wild rides have only just begun, and the clock is ticking. How long can the teens keep themselves awake in their quest to find their friend - and what happens if they fail?
