There can only be one
night a year when a broom will go in search of a witch, when mermaids
might swim in a bathtub and when a house party can get a little too
batty. Here are three strange stories about that one spooky night!
Polar bear cub Kallik
and her brother, Taqqiq, live in a cozy den nestled into the side of a
snowy hill. Their mother, Nisa, tells them stories of the great world
beyond their little den: stories of other bears, endless snow, and
flecks of ice in the sky called stars. Kallik and Taqqiq can't wait to
explore everything, though Nisa says they're still too little to venture
out. But when the two cubs sneak out one day, they discover some
startling new things about life in the wild and make a new friend--whose
life may be in danger!
FAMILY, FRIENDS, BOYS...DENTAL DRAMA?! A true story
Raina just wants to be a normal sixth grader. But one night after Girls Scouts she trips and falls, severely injuring her two front teeth. What follows is a long and frustrating journey with on-again, off-again braces, surgery, embarrassing headgear, and even a retainer with fake teeth attached(!). And on top of all that, there's still more to deal with: a major earthquake, boy confusion, and friends who turn out to be not so friendly. Raina's story takes us from middle school to high school, where she discovers her artistic voice, finds out what true friendship really means, and where she can finally...smile.
