Book Description
While on a vacation in the Lake District, England, Florence Hamilton meets Lance Ramsey, and immediately events take a mysterious turn. To her astonishment, Florence's second-hand camera takes photos of events - some serene and some shockingly disturbing - that are radically different from the scene before her. The mystery intensifies when Lance shows Florence a remote, uninhabited house deep in the countryside. As the initial attraction between Florence and Lance matures and as further mysterious events follow, disparate in nature and dispersed geographically, the two start to question both if there is a larger connection between these events, and if the nature of time is beyond a linear understanding.

Book Description
Lovable monster siblings Natalie and Alphonse are back with big plans in a second surprisingly touching tale in which Natalie is ready to learn how to read. Natalie and Alphonse REALLY like books. Picture books with Dad, scary stories with Mom, and especially stories they remember or make up themselves. So when it’s time for Natalie to learn to read, she thinks it will be exciting — she can have all the stories in the world now, and even read them to Alphonse. But when Natalie gets her first reading book, the letters look like squiggles and it isn’t even a good story; it’s just about a cat that can sit. “I do not like books anymore!” Natalie declares. But she still wants to make up stories. With Alphonse’s help, can she find a way to turn a love of telling stories into a love of reading stories? With her one-of-a-kind voice and wonderfully droll artwork, Daisy Hirst captures the familiar frustration of struggling to learn something new — and the particular pride that comes when you finally succeed.
