The Beast and the Bethany, 1
Lemony Snicket meets Roald Dahl in this "wickedly funny" (James Ponti, New York Times bestselling author), deliciously macabre, and highly illustrated tale of a hungry beast, a vain immortal man, and a not-so-charming little girl who doesn't know she's about to be eaten. Beauty comes at a price. And no one knows that better than Ebenezer Tweezer, who has stayed beautiful for 511 years. How, you may wonder? Ebenezer simply has to feed the beast in the attic of his mansion. In return for meals of performing monkeys, statues of Winston Churchill, and the occasional cactus, Ebenezer gets potions that keep him young and beautiful, as well as other presents. But the beast grows ever greedier with each meal, and one day he announces that he'd like to eat a nice, juicy child next. Ebenezer has never done anything quite this terrible to hold onto his wonderful life. Still, he finds the absolutely snottiest, naughtiest, and most frankly unpleasant child he can and prepares to feed her to the beast. The child, Bethany, may just be more than Ebenezer bargained for. She's certainly a really rather rude houseguest, but Ebenezer still finds himself wishing she didn't have to be gobbled up after all. Could it be Bethany is less meal-worthy and more...friend-worthy?

The Funny Life of Milo
The Roman Colosseum. The Pyramids of Egypt. The Leaning Tower of Pizza. Multiply their greatness by the grains of sand in the sea, the stars in the sky and the number of cats on the moon, and it would still not describe the splendor of this amazing new work, which may or may not reveal the very meaning of life itself. Second rate author J.S. Holdaway has created a masterpiece out of first rate rubbish in this long awaited addition to The Funny Life of Milo series.In the first book, Milo's mother did not allow him to tell any gross stories. She said, "No way, that's very inappropriate." Lucky for you, there's a sequel! It's kind of strange. The stories are silly. He's a little bit odd. Welcome to The Funny Life of Milo: Gross Stories. And yes, it is gross. But not too gross. Just gross enough to be called "Gross Stories." Unless you're a mom or dad. Then it hopefully falls into some sort of gray area. With colorful illustrations and clever wordplay, this early reader series builds vocabulary in a fun and engaging way. Contains seven gross stories each rated 5 stars by me, the author. Length: 36 pages.
