"Never doubt your own strength
Emily has always excelled at sports, and her athletic abilities have given her confidence on and off the courts. So when she starts to drag during her middle-school volleyball season, she assumes it must be the flu. But after a particularly intense game, she finds herself riding in the
back of an ambulance, a paramedic telling her that her life will never be the same.
Adjusting to life with type 1 diabetes isn’t easy. Emily is desperate to prove that she’s just as strong and capable as ever, so she jumps at the opportunity to go on a backcountry ski trip with her dad and her new diabetic alert dog, Molly.
But then a severe winter storm rips through the area, separating Emily from her father. When it becomes clear that no one will come to their rescue before their supplies run out, Emily and Molly must find strength they didn’t know they possessed—and faith in each other—to survive
the harsh wintery conditions and escape the backcountry."

"Encounter in the Dawn by Arthur C. Clarke - A lot of glib fiction has been written about life on other planets, with space ships dropping down among alien races, zap guns decimating the enemy, while Our Hero goes batting off after a Beautiful Princess, who is about to be ravaged by the hairy-nosed glumpfx of Pluto.
But Mr. Clarke, whose book, Exploration of Space, was a Book of-the-Month choice, takes the realistic approach and gets better results than anything by the boom-boom boys.
It was in the last days of the Empire. The tiny ship was far from home, and almost a hundred light-years from the great parent vessel searching through the loosely packed stars at the rim of the Milky Way. But even here it could not escape from the shadow that lay across civilization: beneath that shadow, pausing ever and again in their work to wonder how their distant homes were faring, the scientists of the Galactic Survey still labored at their never-ending task.
The ship held only three occupants, but between them they carried knowledge of many sciences, and the experience of half a lifetime in space. After the long interstellar night, the star ahead was warming their spirits as they dropped down towards its fires. A little more golden, a trifle more brilliant than the sun that now seemed a legend of their childhood. They knew from past experience that the chance of locating planets here was more than ninety per cent, and for the moment they forgot all else in the excitement of discovery"
"A battle for the Overworld is brewing and I need to be there!
I used to be a regular kid, until I got stuck in Minecraft. But you probably know that, right?
Amelia and I are busy decoding the second clue when we get a request from our favourite farting creeper to join the battle. But there’s no way we can make it on time… unless we find a shortcut.
Along the way we meet some forgetful players, fortune-telling endermen and a witch who we highly suspect eats children. Or at least baby villagers.
Oh, and I take a lava bath. I don’t recommend it. But being a chicken in Minecraft can be fun. At least, some of the time!"
"Embark on a breathtaking journey with 'The Sky in July', a tale that weaves the innocence of childhood with the unyielding courage of the human spirit. In the whimsical town of Willow Creek, a group of nine friends transcends the ordinary as they stitch together a dream of reaching the stars.
With echoes of the epic space odyssey of Apollo 13, and inspired by the cosmic intrigue of Carl Sagan's 'Contact,' this story unfolds an adventure that starts in a humble backyard. Here, dreams are the blueprints, and friendship is the fuel for a homemade spacecraft that challenges the very skies.
Witness the wonder of their backyard launch, feel the grip of the cosmos through a tiny porthole, and the strength of bonds that defy gravity. As our young heroes encounter a mysterious sphere that beckons with the pulse of the unknown, they plunge into an odyssey that tests their mettle and ignites their curiosity.
This narrative is a heart's whisper to the dreamers, a song of curiosity to the young at heart, and a testament to the explorer within each soul. The culmination is not merely a mission accomplished, but a silent nod to the moon, a beacon for dreams yet to unfold.
'The Sky in July' is more than a chronicle of a celestial venture; it's a reminder that the universe beckons to those who dare to answer its call. This novel invites you to cast your eyes heavenward and rediscover the joy of dreaming. Here begins a voyage not just through the stratosphere, but into the vastness of our own potential."
"When hungry aliens begin their 'rain' of terror, break out the umbrellas—the aliens can't eat you with an umbrella shoved in their huge mouths.
Looking for yummy human tenders, Admiral Nact-bauk invades the local school. Zack and Zoey lead the counterattack armed with rulers, protractors, and dodge balls.
They might have a chance, if Nact-bauk didn't gulp down the only teacher brave enough to stand up to him. Even worse, he forces Zoey onboard the alien vessel for dinner — along with a bucket of honey-mustard sauce.
Zack will do just about anything to save her. If Principal Blathers won't help, Zack sees no choice but to 'borrow' the principal's car. Chasing the alien saucers, he meets up with a wrinkly WWII hero who thinks he knows the alien's weakness: electric toothbrushes.
Wielding only umbrellas and battery-powered dental weapons, things look grim. Even if the pair manage to rescue Zoey, there's the small matter of escaping a spacecraft soaring faster than a jet fighter.
Can you say, Jetpacks?
Zack & Zoey's Alien Apocalypse is approximately 17,000 words (similar in length to Diary of a Wimpy Kid) and contains scenes of intense action, no cursing or strong language is used."

"Uncover the truth hidden at the heart of a wondrous city in this official Minecraft novel!
Jeremy has never brewed a single potion, but he knows what it's like to be invisible. He lives in the biggest city in the Overworld, surrounded by tall buildings, redstone wonders, and tons of people. So why does he feel so lonely? Why is it so hard to find a friend?
When Jeremy's family meets a family from out in the wilderness, it looks like it's going to be the same old story. The outsiders' kid, Valda, acts like Jeremy is a helpless little baby. Sure, he's never caught a fish or fought a hostile mob, and maybe school only lets him read about crafting and never try it himself. That doesn't mean Valda has to be so rude!
But that's not the only trouble Valda's family has brought with them. They share a terrifying story: A new kind of zombie has appeared, one that can do things no zombie should be able to do-steal resources and work together to terrorize the folks who live outside The City's walls.
To stop them, Jeremy and Valda will need to put aside their differences, team up, and learn from each other's cultures-or the Overworld may never be the same!"

"The Shipshape Miracle by Clifford D. Simak - The castaway was a wanted man—but he didn't know how badly he was wanted!
If Cheviot Sherwood ever had believed in miracles, he believed in them no longer. He had no illusions now. He knew exactly what he faced.
His life would come to an end on this uninhabited backwoods planet and there'd be none to mourn him, none to know. Not, he thought, that there would be any mourners, under any circumstance. Although there were those who would be glad to see him, who would come running if they knew where he might be found.
These were people, very definitely, that Sherwood had no desire to see.
His great, one might say his overwhelming, desire not to see them could account in part for his present situation, since he had taken off from the last planet of record without filing flight plans and lacking clearance.
Since no one knew where he might have headed and since his radio was junk, there was no likelihood at all that anyone would find him—even if they looked, which would be a matter of some doubt. Probably the most that anyone would do would be to send out messages to other planets to place authorities on the alert for him."
