The sparkly cover with its shiny stars and the pleasant interior illustrations add kid friendliness. And Sam is the one who has to lead the charge, even though it upends her world. When the magic of the island starts draining away, threating the unicorns, one of the darkest of his secrets proves to be responsible for a monstrous manifestation on the island must be confronted. It's home to unicorns and other magical creatures, and Sam is gung-ho to pitch right in and help out! But her uncle hasn't shared all his secrets. Sam now knows her uncle's big secret-he's the caretaker of a magical island off the coast that's shielded by magical mist to keep it safe from discovery. ![]() ![]() It's more than just an introduction-the new friendship, the discoveries, and the baby unicorn are a solid story-but readers might feel when then finish it that they were just getting started, and will want the next book right away!" And now I have read the next book, Secret Beneath the Sand (March 8th 2022, Andrews McMeel Publishing). and can say once again that young readers will want the 3rd book straight away too! In my review of Unicorn Island: The Secret of Lost Luck, the first book in Donna Galanti's series for elementary school readers, I said: "This is very much a "book 1," introducing the characters and setting the stage for the series. ![]()

Unlike the fairy tale world of a Regency romance, this book deals with the harsh realities facing Napoleonic war veterans and the lurid circumstances of sex trafficking in Regency London. This book reminded me a good deal of Anne Perry’s Victorian murder mysteries, albeit set at an earlier period in history. ![]() With the aid of his well-to-do society friend Lord Grenville, Lacey begins an investigation that unearths murder, conspiracy, and a sinister man with the ability to influence the highest eschelons of society. When he comes to the rescue of an old gentleman beating on the door of a fancy townhouse, he learns that the man’s daughter was mysteriously abducted two months prior. ![]() Injured and dismissed from his regiment with half pay, Captain Gabriel Lacey is trying to eke out a tolerable life in London. ![]() ![]() Peppered with mind-stretching language exercises, the narrative first unravels how babies learn to talk and how people make sense of speech. If Pinker is right, the origins of language go much further back than 30,000 years ago (the date most commonly given in textbooks)-perhaps to Homo habilis, who lived 2.5 million years ago, or even eons earlier. In this exciting synthesis-an entertaining, totally accessible study that will regale language lovers and challenge professionals in many disciplines-Pinker builds a bridge between ``innatists'' like MIT linguist Noam Chomsky, who hold that infants are biologically programmed for language, and ``social interactionists'' who contend that they acquire it largely from the environment. To Pinker, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology psycholinguist, the explanation for this miracle is that language is an instinct, an evolutionary adaptation that is partly ``hard-wired'' into the brain and partly learned. A three-year-old toddler is ``a grammatical genius''-master of most constructions, obeying adult rules of language. ![]() ![]() ![]() As Holmes sets to work with his unique forensic methods, behind the murder a tangled skein of love, religion, and revenge gradually unwinds, taking us from the streets of London to the Utah Territory, and back again.Īs Nicholas Daly's Introduction describes, out of this gripping tale grew the Holmes and Watson stories that would make Conan Doyle the best-paid author of his time. Through Watson we learn a little about the eccentric figure who is his new room-mate at 221B Baker Street, before they encounter their first case: an American visitor to the city has been killed in an empty house off the Brixton Road, and the only clue the police have is the mysterious word 'Rache', scrawled in blood-red letters on the wall. We meet two of the most famous characters in modern literary history: the consulting detective Sherlock Holmes and John Watson, an army doctor home on sick leave, for the first time. In Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet a popular cultural phenomenon is born. 'There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life.'
