“The murderer is with us—on the train now . . .”
Just after midnight, the famous Orient Express is stopped in its tracks by a snowdrift. By morning, the millionaire Samuel Edward Ratchett lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. Without a shred of doubt, one of his fellow passengers is the murderer.
Isolated by the storm, detective Hercule Poirot must find the killer among a dozen of the dead man’s enemies, before the murderer decides to strike again.

Poems of family, friends, and place: the Midwest, the rolling Virginia countryside and Israel. Endorsements follow: "Lynne Cohn provides a fresh voice in contemporary poetry. She explores what it means to be a young American Jewish woman in the last decades of the 20th century. Her poetry takes her readers from the rolling hills of Virginia farmlands to the rugged landscapes of the Middle East." -Jane Elkington Wohl, Ph.D. "'We know so much that we have begun to forget,' Lynne Cohn concludes in After The Bombs. Hers is the generation unshielded from the news. 'Where does one walk after a bombing?' the poem asks. Perhaps into the intense focus of the living moment--'as if you were a newborn.../as if the only thing I could focus on/was trying not to drop you.' Gathering up the present. Claiming it and her own life through these poems." -Myra Sklarew

Great writing, great story-telling is alive and well in the mid-Atlantic. Twenty-seven great writers from Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. share their lives, their experiences and their imaginations. Common themes abound - relationships between mothers and daughters, men and women, and the pain of adolescence - but writing styles and subject matter are as diverse as the population and geography of these mid-Atlantic states. Of interest, three stories share a common, albeit somewhat exotic setting: the contemporary high school.

WHO: The Balloon Galloon. WHAT: The eater of lost balloons. WHERE: Jackson Hole, Wyomimg. WHEN: 24/7/365. WHY: Somebody's got to do it. 
The Balloon Galloon is the first book to: 1) present a children's fantasy character for one of life's most enduring mysteries: the inability of children to hold onto their balloons and suffer their losses gracefully; and 2) help parents comfort a child who has just lost a balloon, namely: "There it goes! The balloon is off to the Balloon Galloon and Jackson Hole. And remember what Ping says in the book: 'Be brave. Don't cry. There will always be a brighter day. There will always be another balloon.'" 
STORY SYNOPSIS: Children all over the world are losing their balloons to a mysterious faraway force. Not satisfied with his usual quota of lost balloons, and mistakenly fearing an impending shortage, the Galloon is luring children's balloons to his lair in Jackson Hole, stockpiling them for the impending shortage to come. Ping happens upon the scene, confronts the Galloon and, using a combination of reason and pressure -- pin pressure to be exact (popping some balloons) -- convinces the Galloon to return the balloons to their rightful owners: the children of the world! 
The Balloon Galloon is a Picture Book for kids 2-8. Illustrated by Joan C. Waites.

Nine stories, each with chapters, describe the adventures of a six-(almost)-seven year-old boy growing up in West Virginia and Ohio in the 1950s. As in the first book, Little Ned is at the center of things trying to make sense of the world around him. Mysteries abound: Is friend Urshy a little witch like she says? Is Santa real? Where are the coal miners? Why haven't they come home? Is first grade for dumb kids like Billy Smith says? Why is Laura such a tattle-tale? Why don't Mother and Daddy believe in ghosts? In the process of answering his questions, Little Ned (and the reader) come to a better understanding of what life has to offer.
