Angus And Sadie

Newbery Medalist Cynthia Voigt presents this charming middle grade novel about two border collie puppies growing up on a farm—a brother and sister who couldn't be more different from each other...or so they think. "Voigt's touch with dogs is as deft as it is with humans," raved The Horn Book. Angus and Sadie are siblings, but that doesn't mean they're the same. Angus is black-and-white and bigger. He is a good, brave, and clever dog—and he likes that. Sadie, on the other hand, is red-and-white and small. She isn't as quick to learn—or to obey. Angus thinks she's scared of everything, but Sadie knows that's not true. She's just different. This heartwarming story of two wonderful border collie siblings growing up on a farm in Maine is perfect for young readers who enjoyed Ann M. Martin’s A Dog’s Life and John Grogan’s Marley books, animal lovers of all ages, and anyone who's ever had—or wondered what it would be like to have—a brother or sister just like themselves, but very, very different.

Cynthia Voigt crafts a novel about discovery, perspective, and the meaning of home—all through the eyes of an affable and worried little mouse. Fredle is an earnest young fellow suddenly cast out of his cozy home behind the kitchen cabinets—into the outside. It's a new world of color and texture and grass and sky. But with all that comes snakes and rain and lawnmowers and raccoons and a different sort of mouse (field mice, they're called) not entirely trustworthy. Do the dangers outweigh the thrill of discovery? Fredle's quest to get back inside soon becomes a wild adventure of predators and allies, of color and sound, of discovery and nostalgia. And, as Fredle himself will come to understand, of freedom.

There are times in our lives when life doesn’t seem to be fair or we’re not sure why things happen the way they do and choices are hard to make. Butterfly Wings is a story about a young girl, named Sadie Kincaid, who found herself in a place that she never expected and had to make a lot of hard choices. But the most important choice that she had to make was whether she would compromise the treasure that God had created in her or if she would stay true to who God created her to be. We all find ourselves in difficult situations and there are lots of things that can and do want to lead us away from who we are created to be. God created each of us to be a unique gift, amazingly designed, for lots of purposes. I pray that you find hope, strength and encouragement to make the right decisions when those hard choices come along. It takes courage to make hard choices but you have a Friend who wants to help you. Jesus is not just an idea. He’s living with you and He walks beside you each and every step you take, no matter where you go. Butterfly Wings is a journey of the heart, a journey of the mind and a journey of the soul. So join Sadie Kincaid as she travels on her own journey through the Old West and see how God helps her make wise decisions and puts her on the journey that was written just for her. Trials become triumphs in God’s hands.

Meet Toaff: a lovable squirrel, and new standout character, searching for a place to call home in this gem of a story by a Newbery Medal-winning author. Toaff is a small squirrel full of big questions. Why must I stay away from the human's house? Why shouldn't I go beyond the pine trees? Why do we fight with the red squirrels across the drive? His sister shrugs--that's just the way things are. His brother bullies--because I said so. And the older squirrels scold--too many questions! Can Toaff really be the only one to wonder why? When a winter storm separates him from his family, Toaff must make his own way in the world. It's a world filled with danger--from foxes and hawks and cats to cars and chainsaws. But also filled with delight--the dizzying scent of apple blossoms, the silvery sound of singing, the joy of leaping so far you're practically flying. Over the course of a year, Toaff will move into (and out of) many different dreys and dens, make some very surprising friends (and a few enemies), and begin to answer his biggest questions--what do I believe and where do I belong?
