Northward to the Moon

In this beautiful follow-up to the highly acclaimed My One Hundred Adventures, Jane and her family have moved to Canada . . . but not for long. When her stepfather,  Ned, is fired from his job as a high school French teacher (seems he doesn’t speak  French), the family packs up and Jane embarks on a series of new adventures. At first,  she imagines her family as a gang of outlaws, riding on horseback in masks, robbing  trains, and traveling all the way to Mexico. But the reality is different: Setting  off by car, they visit the tribe of Native Americans with whom Ned once lived, head  to Las Vegas in search of Ned’s magician brother, and wind up spending the summer  with his eccentric mother on her ranch out west. As Jane lives through it all—developing  a crush on a ranch hand, reevaluating her relationship with Ned, watching her sister  Maya’s painful growing up—she sees her world, which used to be so safe and secure,  shift in strange and inconvenient ways.From the Hardcover edition.

Literature & Fiction

Stuck in bed with pneumonia, Ivy is delighted when the new neighbours arrive. And they are even better than she could have hoped, for the Halibuts are circus-people! Alfred Halibut is as dreamy and imaginative as Ivy herself, and she feels she has a real friend at last. The Halibuts are so happy in Springfield that they tell the rest of the circus - who move in, too. Soon the town has a snake lady taking her cobra for walks, and a troupe of acrobats whose ambition is to collect garages. The people of Springfield are not happy, and a perfectly polite anti-circus campaign is spreading through the town. Unless Ivy and Alfred can make everybody see sense, Ivy's new friends will be forced to leave - she's not letting that happen without a fight...
