Book One. Rae Wilder has problems. Supernatural creatures swarm the earth, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. Stalked by a handsome fairy who claims she is like him, demonkind, Rae thinks maybe it was a mistake breaking the rules by going over the Wall into demon territory. Plunged into a world of dark magics, fierce creatures, and ritual sacrifice, she is charged with a guarding a magical amulet. The changes to her mind and body are startling, but rather than accept her purpose she struggles against who she is destined to be. Throw in a big lust for a vampire who can't keep his hands off her, and life starts to get complicated. Rae is forced to make the ultimate choice: to live and die human, or embrace her birth-right and wield magics that could turn her into something wicked, a force of nature nothing can control. |

"The Story of the Three Bears" (often known today as "Goldilocks and the Three Bears") is a children's story first recorded in narrative form by English author and poet Robert Southey and first published in a volume of his writings in 1837. The same year, writer George Nicol published a version in rhyme based upon Southey's prose tale, with Southey approving the attempt to bring the story more exposure. The story makes extensive use of the literary rule of three, featuring three chairs, three bowls of porridge, three beds, and the three title characters who live in the house. There are also three sequences of the bears discovering in turn that someone has been eating from their porridge, sitting in their chairs, and finally, lying in their beds, at which point is the climax of Goldilocks being discovered. This follows three earlier sequences of Goldilocks trying the bowls of porridge, chairs, and beds successively, each time finding the third "just right". With stunning graphics and handpicked content this book was specifically designed for iPads users. Your kids will love the illustrations. |

**UPDATE** June 28th, 2014. I'm so grateful to my readers who've talked up and shared my book with their freinds! The influx of excitement over this series sure has kept me on my toes. The Unaltered Series is now an International Bestselling series and I couldn't be more thrilled. A new manuscript was uploaded 6/28/2014 with minor changes to punctuation and grammar to make for the best possible enjoyment for my readers. A Diamond In My Pocket is an appealing mix of fantasy, science fiction, paranormal, urban, creatures, magic, and drama that appeals to all ages. Sixteen-year-old Calli Courtnae surprisingly breaks the 100-meter world record at a high school track meet and is whisked off to Montana to train for Olympic tryouts. Upon arriving, however, she finds something totally unexpected. Her fellow athletes are secretive, mysterious, paranoid, uncommonly beautiful--and endowed with the same gift of superhuman speed she now exhibits. The truth, she learns, is she's the latest person to develop a rare DNA alteration, giving her unnatural speed. The facility will provide her safety while she adjusts to her new world, one that includes delivering packages for high profile clients. When three fellow Runners are kidnapped by a clan of terrorist Healers, Calli is assigned to the team that must deliver a rare magical diamond in exchange for the hostages. She is just beginning to accept her new world when it's turned upside-down by a mysterious woman who privately gives Calli the real diamond, while the team leader is given a decoy. Almost immediately the magical diamond in Calli's pocket unleashes a startling range of supernatural powers and mind-reading abilities within her. Calli discovers a traitor in their midst and sees the tragic future of her companions. She also learns one of the boys ridiculously views her as his soul-mate because of a vision he'd been shown. While she knows her powers derive from the secret diamond in her possession, her companions do not, and Calli dreads the fast-approaching day when they will discover the truth--the day she hands the diamond over to the terrorists and parts with her powers. Readers who enjoy teen fantasy, paranormal, science fiction, and action and fantasy adventure will like A Diamond in My Pocket, book one in The Unaltered Series. Many readers say the romance in the book is similar to Divergent by Veronica Roth. The fast-pace and action feels like The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, and readers especially respond well to the underdog rising up and succeeding, as in Harry Potter by J. K. Rowling. What readers are saying: "The last time I remember reading a book this suspenseful is when I read The Hunger Games series a couple years ago." - JohnstonLife (Amazon) "I am a high school English teacher and am always looking for books to recommend to my students. This book goes to the top of the list!" - Robynne Leighe (Amazon) "Lorena Angell has the formula for young adults and oldsters like me." Gary R. Casebeer "Montessorian, Retired" "Great story, similar to the Percy Jackson series only with a female lead." -Amazon Customer "I was swept away on a journey of mysteries and powers and young love. I feel the books are ageless even if it focuses on teenagers." - L. Fuqua (Amazon) "I felt like it was a cross between Hunger Games & some Harry Potter. I have been recommending it to all the teens I coach & to some open minded adults. I couldn't put it down, the twists & turns keep you turning the pages. I loved the fantasy world it took me to, & how the real world blended." - Beth (Amazon) |

Quando Katniss urla "Mi offro volontaria, mi offro volontaria come tributo!" sa di aver appena firmato la sua condanna a morte. È il giorno dell'estrazione dei partecipanti agli Hunger Games, un reality show organizzato ogni anno da Capitol City con una sola regola: uccidi o muori. Ognuno dei Distretti deve sorteggiare un ragazzo e una ragazza tra i 12 e i 18 anni che verrà gettato nell'Arena a combattere fino alla morte. Ne sopravvive uno solo, il più bravo, il più forte, ma anche quello che si conquista il pubblico, gli sponsor, l'audience. Katniss appartiene al Distretto 12, quello dei minatori, quello che gli Hunger Games li ha vinti solo due volte in 73 edizioni, e sa di aver poche possibilità di farcela. Ma si è offerta al posto di sua sorella minore e farà di tutto per tornare da lei. Da quando è nata ha lottato per vivere e lo farà anche questa volta. Nella sua squadra c'è anche Peeta, un ragazzo gentile che però non ha la stoffa per farcela. Lui è determinato a mantenere integri i propri sentimenti e dichiara davanti alle telecamere di essere innamorato di Katniss. Ma negli Hunger Games non esistono gli amici, non esistono gli affetti, non c'è spazio per l'amore. Bisogna saper scegliere e, soprattutto, per vincere bisogna saper perdere, rinunciare a tutto ciò che ti rende Uomo. |

Little Red Riding Hood is a remarkable classic fairy tale. In the 19th century two separate German versions were retold to Jacob Grimm and his younger brother Wilhelm Grimm, known as the Brothers Grimm, the first by Jeanette Hassenpflug (1791-1860) and the second by Marie Hassenpflug (1788ñ1856). The brothers turned the first version to the main body of the story and the second into a sequel of it. It is about a girl called Little Red Riding Hood, after the red hooded cape or cloak she wears. The girl walks through the woods to deliver food to her sick grandmother. A wolf wants to eat the girl but is afraid to do so in public. He approaches little red riding hood and she naively tells him where she is going. He suggests the girl pick some flowers, which she does. In the meantime, he goes to the grandmother's house and gains entry by pretending to be the girl. He swallows the grandmother whole, and waits for the girl, disguised as the grandmother. With stunning graphics and handpicked content this book was specifically designed for iPads users. Your kids will love the illustrations. |

In the spring of 2000, Fumiko Ishioka, the curator of a small Holocaust education centre for children in Tokyo, received a shipment from the Auschwitz museum. Among the items she received was an empty suitcase with the words “Hana Brady, May 16, 1931, Orphan” written on it. Fumiko and the children at the centre took it upon themselves to find out what became of Hana. The heartbreaking story they uncovered of a brave young girl killed in the Holocaust and survived only by her brother, George, was captured in Karen Levine’s book Hana's Suitcase, first published in 2002. The response to Hana's story has been overwhelming. Hana's Suitcase Anniversary Album has over 60 new pages with all new photographs and videos, a song written in tribute to Hana's story, art from children around the world and letters from author Karen Levine, Hana’s brother George Brady, and Fumiko Ishioka, updating us on the book's impact on their lives. |
