Iron Hearted Violet
Author: Kelly Barnhill
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0316215589
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Newbery Medal winner Kelly Barnhill spins a wondrously different kind of fairy-tale: In most fairy tales, princesses are beautiful, dragons are terrifying, and stories are harmless. But this isn't most fairy tales... Princess Violet is plain, reckless, and quite possibly too clever for her own good. Particularly when it comes to telling stories. One day she and her best friend, Demetrius, stumble upon a hidden room and find a peculiar book. A forbidden book. It tells a story of an evil being, called the Nybbas, imprisoned in their world. The story cannot be true--not really. But then the whispers start. Violet and Demetrius, along with an ancient, scarred dragon-the last dragon in existence, in fact-may hold the key to the Nybbas's triumph or its demise. It all depends on how they tell the story. After all, stories make their own rules. Iron Hearted Violet is a story about the power of stories, our belief in them, and how one enchanted tale changed the course of an entire kingdom.

Violet and Daisy
Author: Sarah Miller
Publisher: Schwartz & Wade
ISBN: 059311972X
Category : Young Adult Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
From the author of The Miracle & Tragedy of the Dionne Quintuplets and The Borden Murders comes the absorbing and compulsively readable story of Violet and Daisy Hilton, conjoined twins who were the sensation of the US sideshow circuits in the 1920s and 1930s. On February 5, 1908, Kate Skinner, a 21-year-old unmarried barmaid in Brighton, England, gave birth to twin girls. They each had ten fingers and ten toes, but were joined back to back at the base of the spine. Freaks, monsters--that's what they were called. Mary Hilton, Kate's employer and midwife, adopted Violet and Daisy and promptly began displaying the babies as "Brighton's United Twins." Exhibitions at street fairs, carnivals, and wax museums across England and Scotland followed. At 8 years old, the girls came to the United States, eventually becoming the stars of sideshow, vaudeville, and burlesque circuits in the 1920s and 1930s. In a story loaded with questions about identity and exploitation, Sarah Miller delivers a completely compelling, empathetic portrait of two sisters whose bonds were so sacred that nothing — not even death— would compel Violet and Daisy to break them.

Book Description
There will be no happily ever after for Violet Tavners -- or so she thinks. She has seen her sisters marry for love, but after falling for a man who turned out to be the worst kind of fraud, Violet is determined to never be deceived again. The only way to do that? Never fall in love. Instead, she agrees to consider the idea of marrying a man of her father’s choosing, despite the fact the marriage would be convenient for everyone but her. Owen Ridlington chooses to be known for his exploits in the fight against Napoleon instead of for his title of Viscount of Primrose. He has faced many foes over the last few years, and now he is nearly lulled to sleep while protecting a little inn by the sea. One thing is certain — there is no room in his life for anyone who might be put at risk. He is alone, and he vows it is going to stay that way. Then danger, in the form of an escaped French spy, threatens The Wild Rose Inn and Owen must protect the Tavners family and the town of Southwold at all costs. But as they work to defend the town, will Owen and Violet protect their hearts against their growing attraction, or will they learn that love can always find a way?
