BOOK BIRTHDAYS
Happy book birthday to Ammi-Joan Paquette‘s ELF IN THE HOUSE. From the description: “The anticipatory excitement of Christmas Eve builds in a festive way in this follow-up to the much-loved GHOST IN THE HOUSE.” This is a book you will definitely want to have on your holiday shelf.
Penny Parker Klostermann’s A COOKED-UP FAIRY TALE released on Sept. 5. This fun fractured fairy tale is about an aspiring chef who mistakenly turns story ingredients into delectable dishes. The publisher says, “Uh-oh! In the magical land of fairy tales, William doesn’t quite fit in. He’d rather poach pears than pursue princesses, and he values gnocchi over knighthood.”
And Caroline Starr Rose’s RIDE ON, WILL CODY! A LEGEND OF THE PONY EXPRESS releases Oct. 1. Here’s the description: “As legend has it, before he was America’s most beloved Wild West showman, young Will ‘Buffalo Bill’ Cody rode for the Pony Express. This lively, lyrical, and action-packed story tells of Will’s famous twenty-one hour journey through Wyoming, where he rode close to 300 miles on twenty-one horses! The trip was said to be the third-longest ride in Pony Express history. Whether truth or myth, Will Cody’s account helped ensure that the story of the Pony Express lived on.”
