A book to encourage parents and kids to talk about their dreams. Right around bedtime, there is a magical moment when real conversations can happen between kids and grownups. It comes after the excitement of the day, when parents were at work and the children were in school. It comes after dinner, when the whole family shares. Just as one is getting tucked in -- but before lights out -- it's story time. Whether your child dreams of being an astronaut or a chef, a sailor or a teacher, Sweet Dreams is a deceptively simple little book for parents to share with their children. Reminiscent of the 1,001 nights (Daddy said, 'That's a pretty sweet dream. Tell me another...') and The Little Prince, Sweet Dreams is engaging, playful, and full of wonder. It encourages parents to talk to their children about dreams -- and vice versa -- in a dialogue that doesn't always happen in this busy day and age. Studies have shown that children need one-on-one interaction with parents on a regular basis, and reading together is a key component in creating strong role models to help kids grow up to be calm, compassionate and successful. Programs such as the NEA's Read Across America actively sponsor programs to bring kids and parents together for story time -- yet there are few books where the father is a central figure, and none on the NEA website. On San Francisco Chronicle's The Poop parenting blog, Kelly Mills called attention to this fact. Though this book was not intended to be a book specifically for fathers, it does have a dad playing a central role. By keeping kids focused on their dreams we help to achieve them. Sweet Dreams will initiate some special conversations between parents and children. And who knows what you will learn about each other? Just ask: What do YOU dream of?

"I need you to help me rescue your father_" With those words, Molly Fyde-and the rest of the known universe-will never be the same. What began as a simple task to retrieve her father's spaceship, has turned into more than Molly bargained for. Setting off to reconnect with her past, she is about to meet it in a way she never expected: Head-on. Her father is alive. Her mother's memories are trapped inside the very ship which bears her name. On the run from her own Navy, Molly and her crew are now tasked with the impossible: Rescue her parents. Save the galaxy. End a war. But before they can attempt such heroics, Molly must first save a friend. One of her crew members is in trouble, their life hanging by a thread. And the only race of people Molly can turn to just happens to be the very aliens she's been raised to fear, trained to meet in battle. Drenard. Homeworld of humanity's sworn enemy. And the next stop for the starship Parsona.

Molly Fyde and the Parsona Rescue

It's been ten years since Molly last set foot on her birth planet, and this isn't how she'd imagined her homecoming. The sky is full of an invading fleet, one powerful enough to threaten the entire galaxy. The new family she has come to rely on -- her crew of alien misfits and runaways -- are scattered in three directions. As they struggle to reunite, events beyond their control seem to be driving more than just them apart: the universe itself may be torn asunder if the bond between these unlikely heroes is broken.

Hugh Howey

Less than sixty kids awaken on a distant planet. The colony ship they arrived on is aflame. The rest of their contingent is dead. They've only received half their training, and they are being asked to conquer an entire planet. Before they can, however, they must first survive each other. In this gritty tale of youths struggling to survive, Hugh Howey fuses the best of young adult fantasy with the piercing social commentary of speculative fiction. The result is a book that begs to be read in a single sitting. An adventurous romp that will leave readers exhausted and begging for more.

Misty: The Proud Cloud

In just a few short weeks, a group of young orphans have come together to form a family. They have united in the most unlikely of alliances, finding strength in the tight bonds of friendship. In their individual cultures, these orphans were seen as children. At best, they were ignored by their elders. At worse, they are treated as nuisances, told what they could and could not do. But no one ever told them they couldn't save the universe. Nobody knew they would ever get the chance . . .

Molly gets kicked out of the Naval Academy and loses the only two things that truly matter: flying in space and her training partner, Cole. A dull future awaits, until her father's old starship-missing for a decade-turns up halfway across the galaxy. Its retrieval launches Molly and Cole on the adventure of a lifetime, one that will have lasting consequences for themselves and billions of others. The simple quest to reconnect with her past ends up forging a new future. And the forgotten family she hoped to uncover becomes one she never foresaw: a band of alien misfits and runaways. Together, they form a new family-the crew of the starship Parsona. --"Molly Fyde and the Parsona Rescue is a fabulous, picaresque adventure featuring one of the most delightful characters I have encountered in recent science fiction. A charming, well-written and beautifully realized story-I loved it!" by Douglas Preston, Author of Blasphemy and co-author of the New York Times Bestselling Pendergast series.
