New Releases by James Solheim

Synopsis coming soon.......

Alex Addleston and Alex Addleston do everything together. They chase Flatt Mountain fireflies. They code secret messages. They collect crawdads named Mr. and Mrs. Sassafras Jorgensen. But when Alex's parents move her family to Kenya, the two friends lose contact with each other. Half a world apart, each Alex still keeps the other close while climbing trees, counting stars, and playing games. One day, just maybe, they will rediscover what it means to be best friends, no matter what.

Warning: Top Secret! You’re probably wondering about this Santa guy. Who is he, and how does he keep track of billions of children around the world? Well, I’ve got the answer. In fact, I’ve got the answer to almost any question about Santa’s secrets you could ask. When Stevie decides that he doesn’t believe in Santa Claus, he’s in for a big surprise! Santa and his elves, eight flying reindeer, and Harry W. Throckmorton the Dancing Cow show Stevie that there’s more to Christmas than he thinks. There’s Gift Fulfillment Centers, a string of satellites called PSSSSSST (Papa Santa’s Super-Secret Satellite Team), and a Spacetime Scruncher. But even more importantly, Stevie discovers that Santa is more than just satellites and science.

"Il mondo visto con gli occhi di una giornalista davvero speciale: una bambina appena nata. Di pagina in pagina si susseguono le tenere e sorprendenti scoperte di un bebè alle prese con le prime immagini, esperienze, persone, suoni e forme presenti nell'immenso mondo circostante. Ogni scoperta diventa uno scoop del suo diario immaginario: le persone crescono! La pappa si può lanciare! I maschi fanno dei rumori strani! Le caviglie sono attaccate ai piedi! Ma per le migliori soffiate la piccola ha a disposizione un'arma segreta: una sorella maggiore che sa tutto, ma proprio tutto del mondo (anche come funzionano i ghiaccioli). Il mondo visto con gli occhi di un bebé ci rivela molte cose che non sappiamo più vedere e ci insegna a 'spolverare' il nostro sguardo da adulti sul mondo."--
