From now through November 22, Amazon’s offering a selection of 25 Kids’ Books for $1 Each in Kindle format! The selection includes such titles as:

The Remarkable And Very True Story Of Lucy & Snowcap (4.5/5 stars, grade 5 and up)

Set on fictional islands off northeast America in 1787, this story features two twelve-year-old girls from different cultures who must join forces to save themselves, their people, and one special baby.

It’s part historical (based on convicts who were sent to the Americas and Australia) and part fantasy.

Above all, it’s a captivating adventure in the tradition of The Princess Bride with shipwrecks, curses, chases, murder plots, magic (of all kinds), romantic legends, thieves and politicians (sometimes both), a caring schoolteacher and a handsome horse groom, a pair of feisty (sometimes difficult) heroines, and the mysterious power of story-telling at its center!

 

Moose’s Big Idea – Moose and Hildy Series (4.5/5 stars, early reader chapter book, grade 1 and up)

Moose is proud of his big, beautiful antlers.

So when they fall off one autumn, he doesn’t like it one bit. Without them, he looks like any other moose.

Luckily, it’s hunting season, so Moose has to stay inside. He reads, does puzzles, and paints with the materials his best friend, Hildy—a pig—brings him.

Then he gets his BIG IDEA. Why not sell his paintings? Moose exhibits his artwork and even manages to strike up a conversation with a passing hunter, who thinks his art is lovely.

Readers will cheer for Moose as he dupes the hunter and manages to make a buck in this hilarious story about a moose and his loyal porcine friend.

 

The Fisherman and the Turtle (5/5 stars, picture book, grade 1 and up)

In the tale of “The Fisherman and the Turtle,” set during the time of the Aztecs, a fisherman catches a magical turtle who grants wishes in exchange for being released.

The fisherman’s wife nags her husband to ask for increasingly extravagant wishes, and in the end learns that greed is not the road to happiness.

In this beautiful retelling of a classic Scandinavian fairy tale, a poor farmer gives his youngest daughter to a bear in return for the promise of riches.

But the girl does not know the bear is bewitched and it is within her power to change his life.

So she unknowingly changes his fortune, and destines him to an unhappy life in a castle east of the sun and west of the moon.

When she follows him, the adventure really begins.

With rich illustrations from acclaimed artist Michael Hague, this unforgettable tale deftly interweaves elements such as ancient magic, true love, faraway lands, and forest trolls.
