Poor Louie

Publisher: Candlewick Press
ISBN: 0763697117
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 45
Book Description
Poor Louie! Life is perfect for this pup until Mom’s belly starts getting bigger. . . . A funny and touching tale for big siblings from the illustrator of the Bink and Gollie series. Louie’s life is great! A walk on the leash every morning, ice cream on Sundays, snuggling in bed at night with Mom and Dad. Even the playdates with Mom’s friends — despite their little crawling creatures who pull Louie’s ears — aren’t all that bad. But then things get weird: cold food on the floor, no room in the bed, and lots of new stuff coming into the house in pairs — two small beds, two little sweaters, two seats in the stroller. Does that bode double trouble ahead, or could there be a happier surprise in store for Louie? With perfect visual pacing, Tony Fucile takes a familiar story and gives it a comic spin.

The Promise of Elsewhere
Author: Brad Leithauser
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0525564128
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
A comic novel about a Midwestern professor who tries to prop up his failing prospects for happiness by setting out on the Journey of a Lifetime. Louie Hake is forty-three and teaches architectural history at a third-rate college in Michigan. His second marriage is collapsing, and he's facing a potentially disastrous medical diagnosis. In an attempt to fend off what has become a soul-crushing existential crisis, he decides to treat himself to a tour of the world's most breathtaking architectural sites. Perhaps not surprisingly, Louie gets waylaid on his very first stop in Rome--ludicrously, spectacularly so--and fails to reach most of his other destinations. He embarks on a doomed romance with a jilted bride celebrating her ruined marriage plans alone in London. And in the Arctic he finds that turf houses and aluminum sheds don't amount to much of an architectural tradition. But it turns out that there's another sort of architecture there: icebergs the size of cathedrals, bobbing beside a strange and wondrous landscape. It soon becomes clear that Louie's grand journey is less about where his wanderings have taken him and more about where his past encounters with romance have not. Whether pursuing his first wife, or his estranged current wife, or the older woman he kissed just once a quarter-century ago, Louie reveals himself to be endearing, deeply touching, wonderfully ridiculous . . . and destined to find love in all the wrong places.

Five years ago, sixty-two year old Louise Plummer disappeared, leaving family and friends to believe she died. She discovers things have changed. She's changed, too. One by one, she discovers she possesses amazing abilities. A long-time friend urges her to travel to San Francisco. There, a parapsychologist who runs an institute studying paranormal activity might be able to help her learn just how much she has changed and, more importantly, how to control those changes. To protect her loved ones, she assumes a new identity. When an employee at the institute goes to the FBI with videos of her performing unbelievable feats, Agent Grimes becomes involved. He sees her as a major threat to national security and is charged with bringing her in, if possible. If not, then to kill her. She doesn't realize how dangerous coming into contact with her is for those she meets. Nor does she know to what extent the government will go to keep her existence and her abilities a secret.
