To the Moon!: The True Story of the American Heroes on the Apollo 8 Spaceship
The exciting and inspiring true story of Apollo 8, the first manned American spaceship to break free of the Earth's orbit and reach the moon, by the best-selling author of Apollo 13. What's more exciting that spaceships and astronauts? How about a spaceship carrying the first astronauts ever to see the moon first hand-on Christmas! In 1968, with the American people still reeling from the explosion of Apollo 1 a year earlier, and amid rumors that the Russian cosmonauts were getting ready to circumnavigate the moon, NASA decided to take a bold step. They wanted to win the space race against Russia and hold true to President Kennedy's promise to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade. So they took a risk and, a few days before Christmas, sent Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders to the moon! TO THE MOON tells the story of these three brave men, the frantic rush to get their rocket ready, and the journey that gave the American people-and the world-a new look at the planet we live on and the corner of space we inhabit. Filled with the science and training required to put a person into space, and every detail of what it's like to live in a spaceship for days on end (including what happens when astronauts need to use the bathroom), TO THE MOON! is sure to leave kids clamoring for a spot on the next mission to outerspace. **Contact Customer Service for Additional Material**

"One of the new tiger cubs has escaped from the reserve!" When a tiger cub escapes from a nature reserve near Neel's island village, the rangers and villagers hurry to find her before the cub's anxious mother follows suit and endangers them all. Mr. Gupta, a rich newcomer to the island, is also searching-he wants to sell the cub's body parts on the black market. Neel and his sister, Rupa, resolve to find the cub first and bring her back to the reserve where she belongs. The hunt for the cub interrupts Neel's preparations for an exam to win a prestigious scholarship at a boarding school far from home. Neel doesn't mind-he dreads the exam and would rather stay on his beloved island in the Sunderbans of West Bengal with his family and friends. But through his encounter with the cub, Neil learns that sometimes you have to take risks to preserve what you love. And sometimes you have to sacrifice the present for the chance to improve the future.

Audiobook
Evie's older sister Cilla is gone. Their parents sent her away to a strict boarding school after she got pregnant during her junior year of high school-because getting pregnant is not something the Morgan girls are supposed to do. They're supposed to go to church and eat fish on Fridays. They're supposed to be good little Catholics. But Evie can't believe her parents could be that cruel, and she doesn't understand why Cilla isn't responding to her almost daily letters-letters about the school play she didn't get cast in, the distance that's growing between her best friends, and the possibility that she's developing some decidedly un-Catholic feelings about the new girl in her class. So when the other kids at school find out about her crush, Evie sets out to find her sister, convinced that Cilla is the only one who can tell her if she should follow her heart and risk getting kicked out of her family, too, or if should start questioning her family and her faith...
