"Milly and big sister Becca are members of the Midnight Club. And tonight is Milly's first outing! At exactly midnight, Milly wakes her sister. With Becca leading the way, they tiptoe along the shadowy hall and down the creaky stairs. There's so much adventure to be had in the middle of the night! They sit in Dad's big chair, dip into his jar of jellybeans, try on Mom's coat. One moment they're frightened by a shadow that looks like a monster, and the next, they're making shadow play of their own. A scratch at the back door has Milly's heart going boom bump boom, but it's just the president of the Midnight Club, their cat Oliver, who leads the way to more shenanigans. Eventually her big sister gets tired(!) but before they head back upstairs, Milly remembers the most important rule--The Midnight Club has to be a secret--and they put back dad's jar of jellybeans and hang up mom's coat. Then Milly, now comfortable in the midnight house and feeling bolder, leads the way back to their room, satisfied with her adventure, and with the secret of the Midnight Club safe inside her. Although the girls may have left a clue or two about their midnight expedition"--

"After her grandfather's death, a young girl explores her Baba Bazorg's house. As the girl wanders through the house, almost idly, her Baba Bazorg's house stands in for the man himself, with each object she describes standing as a touchstone to a memory, and each memory serving as a window into the relationship between the child and her grandfather. As she looks through its rooms, the things she sees and the object she touches bring to life memories of the man she knew, and also the man she didn't know."--Provided by publisher.

"Finn is awakened in the night by something rustling around inside their head. It isn't heavy like a worry, it doesn't swirl like a fear, and it certainly isn't shaped like a question. It's something much more exciting--an idea! Finn can't wait to share it, and they do, at school, with their best friend Sima. Sharing energizes the idea. Then the more Finn thinks about it, the more the idea grows, and by the end of the day the idea is huge and amazing. But not everyone is excited about Finn's idea, and, in a heart-stopping moment, a bully knocks it to the ground. Devastated, Finn begins to doubt their idea, and the more Finn doubts it, the smaller it becomes. Only when it has faded away to almost nothing, does Finn suddenly realize that the idea is actually exactly the way it should be! Confidence renewed, Finn shares the idea with the other kids, who in turn add their thoughts. And as the idea grows, even the bully has a change of heart, offering his own thought to the mix. As the story closes, the idea blossoms and flows across the page, taking wing in rich, glorious color. Sharing has made it bigger, better and more beautiful. Now who knows what this idea will become and where it will go!"--
