Book Description
Ollie’s Treasure is tale of mindfulness for young, developing minds. It’s a story about how simply noticing and taking in what is on offer to our senses can lead to the Holy Grail of treasure — happiness. Ollie’s Treasure takes children on a treasure hunt. Ollie’s grandma sends him a treasure map that promises to lead him to ‘something that will make him happy always’. Of course, Ollie thinks this ‘something’ will be a toy of some sort, but he gets both a rude shock and a big surprise when his treasure turns out to be him! By following his grandmother’s treasure map, he is taken on a journey of his senses, encouraged to notice what he can see, hear, touch, smell and taste. It comes as quite a surprise to him to realise that noticing such things makes him feel happy, and that the key to happiness can be found in his own mind not in material possessions.

Book Description
In the next breath, the voice said, "I'm your wolf, but we're different in spirit." Mentally, I said, "Your wolf is me." It's official, I'm crazy now. Despite my crazy nature, let's pretend I'm not. Would you mind telling me what your name is?” A soft voice replied, "I'm KiKi (Kee Kee) and we're werewolves. There's no human more attractive or stronger than us." With a stutter, I ask, “Will I stay this way, or will I ever be human again?” Totally unprepared, I asked KiKi. What's the best way to prepare to transform into a wolf? KiKi felt like she was hugging me from inside and said, "We're one. Most of the time we're human." “KiKi?” Kiki says, "Yes." The prophecy of a Vampire King who sought total dominance over the mystical creatures of the world has been whispered among the werekind for generations. But when Alexi, a seemingly ordinary human girl, discovers she is gifted with the power of the White Wolf, she must confront a destiny she never expected. With her newfound abilities, Alexi must battle against a team of werewolves led by her mate in order to prove her worth and save her species. But as Alexi grows in power, she must confront the darkness within her own heart that threatens to consume her. Book 1.

Book Description
Britain's answer to Marley and Me-the hilarious and heartwarming international bestseller about learning to live with a troublesome dog. Like many first-time pet owners, London-based novelist Stephen Foster was upbeat as he began his search for a puppy to adopt. How hard can it be to take care of a dog, he thought-read a guidebook or two, buy a few supplies, and get on with it. But all the books and supplies in the world couldn't have prepared him for life with Ollie, a willful and moody adopted dog who quickly demonstrated his displeasure at the notion of being told what to do. Walking Ollie tells the funny and charming story of how a growling, skittish man and his equally growling, skittish dog broke each other in, came to see eye to eye, and decided to become best friends.
