The world of Nightmares, Sirens, Wizards and Demons at Arkwell Academy is wondrous and strange, yet so human and well-drawn that you get the feeling you might stumble into it by accident if you go out wandering too late. The Nightmare Affair is whimsical and wild.” —Kendare Blake, author of Anna Dressed in Blood

978-0-7653-3211-0July 2014

“When I was eleven, my father, my two best friends, and I found scattered human bones in a

Michigan sand dune.”* An impressive and assured first novel based on an incident from the author’s childhood

* Middle grade historical fiction that explores themes of Native American culture, ecology, and conservation

“Julia Mary Gibson’s quiet masterpiece is an effortless alloy of magic and science… I fell as much in love with Violet Blake’s multi-talented, multi-racial, generous, loving, crazy-flawed family as with Violet herself, teetering on the edge of childhood and maturity just as the Midwest teeters on the edge of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Violet’s world swallowed me whole.” —Elizabeth Wein, New York Times bestselling author of Code Name Verity

NOT FINAL COVER


978-0-7653-3327-8June 2014

Praise for Cartboy and the Time Capsule:

“Campbell’s debut is fast and funny and dotted with drawings, labeled pictures, and goofy timelines. Hal’s authentic voice and realistic twelve-year-old sense of humor will hook Wimpy Kid fans.” —Kirkus Reviews

In the tradition of Diary of a Wimpy Kid comes this laugh-out-loud sequel to Cartboy and the

Time Capsule

“Sure, this sad-sack path blazed by Jeff Kinney’s Wimpy Kid is familiar ground, but Hal treads it well, and readers will find it easy to spend time with him.” —Horn Book Magazine

“Perfect middle-grade fantasy, lots of action, lots of battles, lots of icky monsters, lots of fun.” —Bonnie Kunzel, Librarian
