A delectable picture book about midnight snacks, nocturnal creatures and unexpected generosity, inspired by lunch carts that were the predecessors…
of today’s food trucks and diners. For fans of The Night Gardener.Noses sniff the air as mouthwatering smells waft down city streets, luring growling bellies to the Night Owl. Inside this elegant, horse-drawn establishment, a feathery cook works the grill, serving up tasty dishes for shift-workers and operagoers alike: a mince pie for Fox, a ham sandwich for Badger and puddings for little Possums. Mouse, a poor street sweeper, watches as the line of customers swells, ever hopeful that someone will drop a morsel of food — but Owl’s cooking is far too delicious for more than a crumb to be found. As the evening’s service winds down, weary Owl spots trembling Mouse. Has he found his own night lunch, or will he invite this small sweeper inside for a midnight feast for two? From the imagination of two acclaimed picture book creators, together for the first time, this dreamlike picture book is a magical ode to Victorian lunch wagons. Evoking the sounds, sights, smells and tastes of the city at night, Night Lunch reveals how empathy and kindness as well as dignity and gratitude can be found — and savored — in the most unexpected places.Available copies:

The frigid swells off the coast of Antarctica buffer Team Cousteau's kayaks as they weave through the icy water. They're…
losing daylight, and at risk of failing their fieldwork assignment. But Cruz Coronado's thoughts are elsewhere. Nebula is closing in, and time is running out. The evasive explorer spy is still out there. And in his gut, Cruz knows his final mission will have deadly consequences. In The Forbidden Island, the electrifying seventh and final book in the Explorer Academy series, Cruz wonders if fortune really does favor the brave. After all, his mother's hologram rejected the latest piece of the cipher, grinding his progress to a dismal halt. On top of that, terrifying truths keep bubbling to the surface. But in a journey that has taken him to all seven continents, Cruz isn't ready to give up, and neither are his closest friends, Lani, Emmett, and Sailor. In fact, Cruz is prepared to risk everything he loves to recover the cell-regeneration formula and continue his mother's legacy. As Cruz follows his path to the most otherworldly destination yet, a final showdown erupts when a familiar face appears, changing his life forever
