The Forest has reached its time of reckoning, and it seems as though all hope to save the kingdoms may be lost forever.Unless, of course, King Felix, Queen Eleonora, and their multi-species army are able to stop the Controllers before they destroy the Higher Spirits once and for all, prompting the entire Forest to fall into complete and utter ruin. But will they succeed before the Forest descends entirely into darkness?

The Gift of Bravery is the story of how an ordinary man was transformed into an extraordinary spy and of the brilliant contributions he made to his nation that arose from his courageous acts in the face of danger.Get to know Eli Cohen—the best spy Israel has ever known—in the first illustrated book about his life. A heroic secret agent who rose to prominence in the Syrian government using a disguised identity, Eli risked his life to save his nation. Thanks in part to the contributions of Eli, Israel won the Six-Day War in 1967.Growing up in Egypt in the 1920s and 1930s, young Eli was bullied and discriminated against for being Jewish. He dreamed of helping build a state where he and his family and friends could thrive and prosper, safe from the historical hatred and persecution of Jewish people. During World War Two, Eli worked covertly inside Egypt to weaken the enemies of his people by destroying hostile military outposts. Under a cloud of suspicion, he moved to Israel, where he married, started a family, and took a civilian job. But the days of Eli's sweet, peaceful life at home in Tel Aviv would be short lived. With a growing threat from Syria on the northeastern border, the Mossad recruited Eli to spy for them (1961—1965) because of his bravery and flawless Arabic accent.

"…A well written interesting children's book, but its adventures are so wonderful and so quaintly told that many a parent who would buy the book as a Christmas present for his children would be beguiled into reading it for his own amusement…" -Sacramento Bee, 1890sBaron Trump's Marvellous Underground Journey by INGERSOLL LOCKWOOD, with illustrations by Charles Howard Johnson, is a mixture of travel adventure, science fiction, and fantasy. Published in 1893, it became one of Lockwood's most popular works together with his other children's book The Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump and His Wonderful Dog Bulger, published in 1890. In 2017, when almost all the news deals with the Trump presidency, The Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump drew attention due to its uncanny connections with President Trump and his family. The book's main character, Baron Trump, is a wealthy boy with abnormal strength living in Castle Trump, and just like President Donald Trump, is of German heritage. What makes the story even more remarkable is that Baron Trump is guided by "the master of all masters," a man named "Don," to start his voyage to Russia. Even stranger, in Lockwood's final novel, The Last President (1896), New York City fears the collapse of the republic in 1900 after the transition of presidential power and Americans protest a corrupt election process. Are these books a bizarre coincidence or are they prophetic? Let the reader decide.
