Вэнди Масс – лучшие книги

Вы держите в руках необычную книжку-шкатулку. Похожую шкатулку, разве что чуть побольше размером, получил и герой книги, мальчик по имени Джереми. Между прочим, посылка пришла к нему из прошлого. Не верите, что такое бывает? Оказывается, бывает! Джереми вместе со своей верной подругой Лиззи начинает искать ключи от заветной шкатулки, и на этом пути ребят ждёт множество приключений. Откроет ли Джереми шкатулку? Что он найдёт внутри? И в чём кроется настоящий смысл жизни?

Однажды ночью в маленьком городке Мартинвилле появляется загадочная библиотека — в шкафчике, который охраняет рыжий кот. Пятиклассник Эван берет из шкафчика пару книг — и вся его жизнь меняется. Эван и его лучший друг Рейф быстро догадываются, что одна из старых книг связана с пожаром, о котором взрослые почему-то не хотят говорить. Мальчики начинают собственное расследование. Сумеют ли они пролить свет на давнюю тайну? Теперь от этого зависит будущее целого города.

And as streams of light fan out behind the darkened sun like the wings of a butterfly, I realize that I never saw real beauty until now.

At Moon Shadow, an isolated campground, thousands have gathered to catch a glimpse of a rare and extraordinary total eclipse of the sun. It's also where three lives are about to be changed forever:

Ally likes the simple things in life--labyrinths, star-gazing, and comet-hunting. Her home, the Moon Shadow campground, is a part of who she is, and she refuses to imagine it any other way.

Popular and gorgeous (everybody says so), Bree is a future homecoming queen for sure. Bree wears her beauty like a suit of armor. But what is she trying to hide?

Overweight and awkward, Jack is used to spending a lot of time alone. But when opportunity knocks, he finds himself in situations he never would have imagined and making friends in the most unexpected situations.

Told from three distinct voices and perspectives, Wendy Mass weaves an intricate and compelling story about strangers coming together, unlikely friendships, and finding one's place in the universe.

Everyone thinks I named my cat Mango because of his orange eyes, but that's not the case. I named him Mango because the sounds of his purrs and his wheezes and his meows are all various shades of yellow-orange...

Thirteen-year-old Mia Winchell appears to be the most normal kid in her family. Her younger brother, Zack, keeps a chart of all the McDonald's hamburgers he's eaten in his lifetime. Her older sister, Beth, dyes her hair a different color every week and might be a witch. But Mia knows she is far from ordinary.

She is keeping something from everyone who knows her: the fact that sounds, numbers, and letters have color for her. When trouble in school finally convinces Mia to reveal her secret, she feels like a freak. Her family and friends have trouble relating to her as she embarks on an intense journey of self-discovery. By the time she realizes she has isolated herself from all the people who care about her, it is almost too late. She has to lose something very special in order to find herself.

There are two sides to every story -- even fairy tales. A he said/she said series with a prince and princess twist.

Rapunzel is having the ultimate bad day. She's been stolen from home by an evil witch, locked in an incredibly high tower, and doesn't even have a decent brush for her hair. Prince Benjamin is in a pretty uncomfortable situation himself. His father wants him to be more kingly, his mother wants him to never leave her sight, and his cousin wants to get him into as much trouble as possible. Plus, there's the little matter of prearranged marriages. . . . Both Rapunzel and Prince Benjamin are trapped--in very different ways. It's only when their paths cross, that things really start to change.

Robin has a bad habit of getting into trouble, and a better habit of getting out of it (barely). He lives on an isolated outpost in the middle of nowhere and has no idea why his parents disappeared years ago. Then a strange delivery arrives at his doorstep, and the past is suddenly very present.
Marian was raised to be a very powerless girl in a very powerful family. But that hasn't stopped her from making her own adventures and trespassing in some places her parents definitely don't want her to see. She has no idea what life would be like outside of her home, until a mysterious invitation forces her to leave everything behind.
Robin and Marian have lived very different lives in very different places. Their paths should never, ever cross, but before they know it, they are thrown together on a quest that requires legendary bravery, quick-witted escapes, and the ability to get along with each other.
The sky's no longer the limit on what Robin and Marian can do, as long as they manage to do it together.
