A Reliable Wife by Robert Goolrick
He placed a notice in a Chicago paper, an advertisement for a "reliable wife." She responded, saying that she was "a simple, honest woman." She was, of course, anything but honest, and the only simple thing about her was her single-minded determination to marry this man and then kill him, slowly and carefully, leaving herself a wealthy widow. What Chatherine Land did not realize was that the enigmatic and lonely Ralph Truitt had a plan of his own.
Karen's Favorite Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr. /John Archanbault
Countless children-- and their parents-- can joyfully recite the familiar words of this beloved alphabet chant. The perfect pairing of Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault's lively rhymes, and Caldecott Honor artist Lois Ehlert's bright, bold, cheerful pictures made Chicka Chicka Boom Boom an instant hit and a perennial favorite. "A told B, and B told C, 'I'll meet you at the top of the coconut tree.'" -Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

The Brick Layer by Noah Boyd
Someone gives you a dangerous puzzle to solve, one that may kill you or someone else, and you're about to fail... And there is no other option. No one who can help. No one but the Bricklayer.
