Switch! The Lost Kingdoms of Karibu
Karen Prince
Genre: Fantasy
FREE for a limited time
A fantasy adventure about magic, friendship and bravery, but also about bad judgement, rascally witches and thoroughly irresponsible adults.
Trouble is brewing in the secret African rift valley of Karibu and Gogo Maya, the witch, and her leopard are about to make matters worse. Of all the dubious magic tricks they know, they choose a risky ‘switch’ they’ve been working on, to escape from somebody lurking in the forest. Unfortunately they overshoot, switching right out of Karibu and drawing an ordinary Zimbabwean boy into the mess they leave behind them. The whole disaster that followed might have been averted if another boy had not gone and sucked up what was left of the witch’s power, leaving her too weak to switch back again. CPR, the daft boy called it. He should know better than to risk kissing a witch
If you had to choose between Joe’s two best friends or his cousin, Ethan, to lead an adventure into the bush to rescue him, Ethan would be the last one you’d pick because, well … he’s useless that way. Yet the witch’s leopard inexplicably starts issuing plans right into his head. Apparently he’s Joe’s best hope because he has absorbed some of the witch’s questionable magic powers. Powers which might come in handy if he ever learns how to wield them, and if he can endure the painful backlash he suffers every time he tries.
In a world that quite literally defies belief, where magic seeps into the drinking water for anyone to use or abuse, and the terrain is impossible to navigate without help from extremely risky sources, this is the tale of Ethan’s struggle to reach his cousin, Joe, before he falls into the wrong hands and gets himself killed.

Growing into a Farm: Before the Walden Effect (Modern Simplicity)
Anna Hess
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs
FREE for a limited time
“This is a love story in three parts about how I ended up with much more than I bargained for, and grew beyond the person I thought I’d be.”
Anna Hess spent her early childhood chasing ornery cows back into the barn, eating all the strawberries before they got ripe so she didn’t have to share them, and climbing sap-riddled pine trees.The reality of farm life seemed to be summed up in one word — bliss.So when her back-to-the-lander parents threw in the towel and moved the family to a nearby town, Anna resolved to save her pennies and find a farm of her own, one that she would never have to leave.
A couple of decades later, Anna had bought the property, but soon realized she couldn’t make her dreams come true alone.When a friend set her up with a potential mate, Anna went along grudgingly.”To be honest, at the time I was still pretty sure that a farm and a man were incompatible,” Anna wrote, “and given the choice I leaned toward the farm.”Little did she know that the best partnership was a threesome — a man, a woman, and a farm.
Full of photos, this book serves as a preface to the popular homesteading blog, Walden Effect.

Tales From The Glades Of Ballymore
Bob Brooks
Genre: Children’s eBooks
FREE for a limited time
Transport yourself and your children back to a simpler time
Remember when responsibilities and worries were few? Everyone was so kind and the world seemed magical. Tales From The Glades Of Ballymore can take you there. Welcome to Ballymore, a community of animals who live by the “Golden Rule”.
You are most welcome to join the them as they help each other through their many adventures — big and small.
There is Bartholomew, the wise old owl, who watches over everyone including:
Branna Bluebird – the brave, spunky messenger; Wilde and Wilder Weasel – the mischievous, unofficial security guards; Finn Frog – whose middle name is “Adventure”; Grenby – the eccentric, weather forecasting groundhog; The Chipmunks – who seem to attract trouble wherever they go; The “Pond Creature”; and many more.
This is a heartwarming, humorous, and adventurous book of intertwined tales that the whole family can enjoy together. The book is intended for parents to read to their younger children. It is also intended to be read alone by children eight and older but can be appreciated by anyone still young at heart. The classic tales are enhanced by beautiful full-color illustrations.
The setting is deep in the Irish countryside surrounding a large pond in the year of 1891. The lovable animal residents have the ability to speak and have created a self-sustaining community that has existed for many years. The success of the community is rooted in the caring and sharing they extend to each other.
The world can be a harsh and hectic place for children. It can be for us all. One of my intents in writing this book is that it provides a small respite – a place of softness. Let children enjoy their childhood and not grow up too soon. And when they do grow up, let’s leave some pieces of softness in their hearts for the future benefit of all.
