Max is handling his parents' divorce, his new home and school, and a big bully named Nick the only way he knows how: by running away. In his mind, he and his beautiful dog King have thrilling adventures in the woods; they conquer aliens and slay dragons; they embarrass Nick so he never comes near Max again. Then Max happens upon a store called Wishworks, Inc., which promises his wish will come true in real life, "guaranteed." He wishes for a real dog to fulfill all his dreams. And then a real dog named Goldie appears on his doorstep . . . but she may be a little more real than Max expects!

Welcome to the Ark

In a world reeling from the escalating violence of terrorism, war and crime, four brilliant young misfits are thrown together in an experimental group home they dub “The Ark”—part of a private mental hospital in the Adirondack mountains.  Amanda (the linguist), Elijah (apparently autistic), Doug (the mathematician), and Taryn (the poet and mystic), soon discover powers of mind far beyond their extraordinary intellects.  Dreaming versions of the same dream, able to join consciousness first with each other, then with nature, and finally with other brilliant children around the world, they feel a sense of mission they struggle to define.  Perhaps they are here to stop the violence threatening humanity.  But first they must find a way to save themselves.  Welcome to the Ark is the first volume of the Ark Trilogy.  The second is Flight of the Raven.
