The friends *are about to go on another adventure*, this time to break out of the pirate’s jail and to return back to rescue everyone else.

*Steve knows climbing the world’s biggest mountain will be hard, but he has no idea just how hard it will be...
*
Adventurous Noob Steve is joined by his troop of friends- sweet Bailey, competitive Zach and goofy Cameron on a quest to climb the world’s largest mountain. After a previous mountain climbing effort the group completed successfully, they were given the coordinates to an even bigger mountain to climb as a reward.
The adventure loving pack begins their journey in the nether, *climbing a mountain spanning from the nether to the overworld*. In their travels, they will encounter strange, friendly zombie pigmen whose intentions seem questionable, a fabled dangerous, blood thirsty dragon, and* husks – bizarre zombies who can survive in daylight*. Finally, when they reach the top of the mountain, all they have to do is touch the tip. Easy peasy right?* Until they realize that they might have spoken too soon…*
World’s Biggest Mountain will entertain children but also adults, making it a perfect pick for a family read. Hilarious and unique, this book will have you turning pages until the very end.
As brave hearted Alex and level headed Steve persevere in their fight against an evil wizard and his enchanted zombies, they *slowly make it up the mountain where the wizard seems to have set up his lai*r. Alex and Steve are “semi zombies” - they still behave like humans but lack the strength to fight like they used to before they were bitten.
After killing off half of the zombie warriors, they find themselves in a compromising position – captured by the enchanted zombies and thrown in a cell made of ice. Despite their best attempt to escape, they find themselves thrown in yet another cold cell. The wizard makes an appearance, imploring them to join his army and offering human-hood back to the duo if they join his team.
After Alex sees Steve’s despondence over being a zombie, she kindly passes him 2 golden apples that will make him human again. His new found strength allows him to punch an escape hole, but by the time he tries to get Alex out it is too late. *Steve disappears, not to be heard from again.
*
Now Alex is alone with the wizard and it’s time to make a deal with the devil. Like Steve, Alex wants to be human again. And falsely pledging to join the wizard’s army seems to be her only salvation. The wizard warms up to Alex and asks her if he can bring a friend or family member for help. That’s when she springs to action – asking the wizard to invite her friend and his sister to help prepare for the army, and* that’s when things start to get exciting.*
A powerful story with messages about loyalty, triumph in the face of adversity and goodhearted affection between friends, Snowed In will have the whole family on the edge of their seat.
*Power is in the wand of the beholder…*
Steadfast, young Zombie Alex has been kidnapped by a powerful but evil wizard. Rather than get rid of her, the wizard has a different plan: *to recruit her to serve as a powerful general in his army. *Although the idea of befriending the vile wizard turns her stomach, Alex is forced to play along and comply with his wishes.
Luckily, Alex was able to request that her friend, and the wizard’s sister, a witch, be transported to the wizard’s kingdom to help her prepare for the army. Little does he know, however, that Alex and the witch have been conspiring to defeat the wizard. It turns out that the witch’s brother has a major weakness – *and it’s up to Alex to take advantage of this weak spot before it’s too late*.
What is the wizard’s weakness? What will become of the witch? Will Alex be able to defeat the wizard in time? You’ll have to read Wanderful Adventure to find out!
Wanderful Adventure is a fanciful story that will be a roaring good time for any young fan of Minecraft – even those who don’t like to read!
*In a world turned upside down by enchantment, is magic always a bad thing?*
Plucky young Zombie Alex finds herself in another adventure after reuniting with good-natured friend Steve. They are accompanied by the mysterious Antonio, another human turned zombie in their mission to save the Overworld.
Fighting zombies all the way, Alex finds time to teach Steve and Antonio some of the magic she picked up from the time she spent with her friend the witch and an evil wizard who had captured her. Steve shrugs off the magic lessons, *wondering if magic could possibly be a good thing. *Antonio however, takes a keen interest in learning the spells and picks up Alex’s lessons quickly.
After a harsh battle with even more zombies,* Antonio seems to have disappeared*. Worried that he is in harm’s way, Alex goes back to try to locate him, only to face a new and daunting surprise. Why is Antonio so enamored with magic? Can magic only be a bad thing? Will Steven and Alex ever meet again? Time will tell when you read “Tragic Magic.”
Tragic Magic is an endearing children’s book that will have any child jumping for joy as they read, even the ones who don’t like to.
The barbershop is where the magic happens. Boys go in as lumps of clay and, with princely robes draped around their shoulders, a dab of cool shaving cream on their foreheads, and a slow, steady cut, they become royalty. That crisp yet subtle line makes boys sharper, more visible, more aware of every great thing that could happen to them when they look good: lesser grades turn into As; girls take notice; even a mother's hug gets a little tighter. Everyone notices. A fresh cut makes boys fly. This rhythmic, read-aloud title is an unbridled celebration of the self-esteem, confidence, and swagger boys feel when they leave the barber's chair-a tradition that places on their heads a figurative crown, beaming with jewels, that confirms their brilliance and worth and helps them not only love and accept themselves but also take a giant step toward caring how they present themselves to the world. The fresh cuts. That's where it all begins. Crown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut is a high-spirited, engaging salute to the beautiful, raw, assured humanity of black boys and how they see themselves when they approve of their reflections in the mirror.
*When you set foot in an abandoned village, it can be quite a shock to realize you aren't quite alone...*
Good news! Fun-loving, adventure-finding Steve is going on vacation! Bad news – *it's with the school!* Not only will Steve have to endure the snore-worthy teachings of Mr. Notch, he also has to contend with Donnie Buggs – *the meanest school bully around*. Steve is heartened when his lady wolf Bob is able to go on vacation with them though – perhaps Buggs will be less likely to be so rotten with a full grown wolf staring him down.
But, suddenly, Bob has gone missing, and it's up to Dork Steve and his loyal friend Alex to hunt her down. As much as he would like to avoid to go, Steve knows that Bob has gone missing in a creepy abandoned village not too far from the camp site. Little do Steve and Alex know that someone – or something – is also in the village... and they have a bone to pick.
Abandoned Village is a page turning adventure that will engage any reader – whether they enjoy reading as a pastime or not. Just in time for the holidays, this book is a great read for children and an excellent way to spend the holiday vacation – on the edge of their seats!
