Tarantula Shoes

After moving from Arizona to Kentucky with his parents, his five-year-old twin brother and sister, and his pet tarantula, Fang, an eleven-year-old works creatively to earn the money for a special pair of basketball shoes that will help him feel accepted.

When Jackson is mysteriously, magically transported from his Oregon hometown to an ancient world untouched by modern technology, he wonders how he will survive. Then he meets the leaders of the Timmran people who, impressed by his tales of the future, believe he has magical powers.  Soon he is a crucial part of the Timmran plan to defeat their enemies, the Yakonan. But as the battle progresses, Jackson is not sure if he's on the side of justice-or if he has helped to unleash an evil that only he has the power to stop.

Attack of the Mutant Underwear

New kid. New school. A whole new opportunity. Meet Cody Lee Carson. Birthday: April 1. Past history: doofus, bozo-brain. Now that Cody’s in a new school in a new town, he has a chance to reinvent himself. Through his “New Me” journal, readers follow him through his fifth-grade year—including everything from student council elections, science fairs, crushes, and one disastrous “talent” show. Will he make it through in one piece—without showing his Tweety-Bird underwear again? “This lively and believable record . . . has great appeal. It’s a sort of male companion for Phyllis Reynolds Naylor’s early ‘Alice’ books.”—School Library Journal
