Book Description
Pipi is an average girl from a small town in the early 1980s-a little shy, a bit lonely, and very curious. She loves her home and family but dreams of more. She wants to see the world, and she has a train ticket to get her there. When a chance encounter with an eccentric homeless man puts her on board the Midnight Express, she discovers a world rich with the magic of nature. The Midnight Express is not your normal train-it's more Wild West than modern ones. It has a compartment just for chocolate and a magical museum. And behind a hidden door marked for magicians only, the mysterious stranger awaits. The mysterious stranger is a tall, dark skinned middle-aged man with a long handheld wooden cane, who is wearing a cape and a vest bearing a hodgepodge of various items. He calls himself a wizard and speaks of how imagination and willpower can shape reality and of the dark forces that now threaten the magical community. Fans of Harry Potter and C. S. Lewis's works will delight in this fresh tale of spiritual quest, magic and mystery. Where imagination is magic, nothing happens by chance, and the most curious journey of all is one of self-discovery.

Book Description
First impressions are everything. They dictate whether something stands out, how we engage with it, whether we buy it, and how strongly we feel. In Judge This, the reader travels through a day in the life of renowned designer Chip Kidd as he takes in first impressions of all kinds. We follow this visual journey with Kidd as he encounters and engages with everyday design, breaking down the good, the bad, the absurd and the brilliant as only a designer can. From the design of the paper you read in the morning to the subway ticket machine to the books you browse to the smartphone you use to the packaging for the chocolate bar you buy as an afternoon treat, Kidd will reveal the hidden secrets behind each of the design choices, with a healthy dose of humour, expertise and judgment

Book Description
These unjustly neglected works, among the most enjoyable of Mark Twain's novels, follow Tom, Huck, and Jim as they travel across the Atlantic in a balloon, then down the Mississippi to help solve a mysterious crime. Both with the original illustrations by Dan Beard and A.B. Frost. "Do you reckon Tom Sawyer was satisfied after all them adventures? No, he wasn’t. It only just pisoned him for more." So Huck declares at the start of these once-celebrated but now little-known sequels to his own adventures. Tom, Huck, and Jim set sail to Africa in a futuristic air balloon, where they survive encounters with lions, robbers, and fleas and see some of the world’s greatest wonders.
