The Knitting Witch: A Spellbinding Tale of Magic and Mischief
by Norma KassirerEloise meets Coraline in this spellbinding tale by the beloved author of Magic Elizabeth."Extreme brattiness meets extreme witchiness in this merrily plotted tale."—Kirkus Reviews "A thoroughly enjoyable throwback that gives readers a playful push towards gratitude."—Booklist &“ . . . reads like a bedtime story and will have kids giggling at Ivy Lou&’s outrageous behavior.&” —Avi, Newbery Award-winning author of Crispin: The Cross of Lead Ivy Lou seems to have it all—except friends. So when a witch appears and knits up some magical playmates, Ivy Lou&’s parents hire her. Things quickly worsen as Ivy Lou finds her new friends, parents, and fancy house disappearing, leaving her captive in the witch&’s hastily knit Horrid Little Hut. The witch has her own motives—to groom Ivy Lou to be a witch&’s child. Ivy Lou, who turns out to be terrible at making potions, casting spells, and riding on a broomstick, has met her match. Even her threat of Tantrum Number Three, to turn herself inside out, doesn&’t faze this witch. Finally, as the witch is out on her nightly broomstick rounds, a terrified Ivy Lou, enchanted knitting needles in hand, has only until midnight to unknit the Horrid Little Hut and restore the life she knew. Will Ivy Lou manage to get back home, or is she doomed to become a witch&’s child forever? Crafted with Kassirer&’s timeless prose, and brought to life with exquisite illustrations by Mark Richardson, The Knitting Witch will entangle readers in the threads of this magical yarn! MORE PRAISE FOR THE KNITTING WITCH &“With a poet&’s command of imagery and a mastery of narrative, Kassirer offers a fully imagined world in The Knitting Witch that you won't soon forget." —Geoffrey Gatza, author of The Albatross Around the Neck of Albert Ross ". . . Norma Kassirer spins a tale of the mysterious passed off as truth and truth masquerading as fiction, matched ink for ink with Mark Richardson's fantastical drawings, which will catch the fancy of every spellbound reader." —Edric Mesmer, Poetry Cataloger, University at Buffalo

The Korea & Her Neighbours
by Isabella BirdIn Korea and Her Neighbours, written in two volumes between 1894 and 1897, Isabella Bird documents one of the most critical and interesting periods of Korean history. Violently torn from centuries of seclusion, this fragile nation awoke to find itself confronted on all sides by an array of powerful, ambitious, and aggressive countries clamoring for commercial and political concessions - a rivalry which, at this time, made Korea the battlefield of the first Sino-Japanese war. In the midst of political turmoil and international intrigue, the author offers an extraordinarily accurate description of almost every facet of the country covering such topics as the climate, geography, the living conditions of the people, the structure of government, indigenous religions, customs, and foreign trade treaties. Included is a chilling description of the assassination of Korea's queen, and an account of Isabella Bird's undaunted travels in Manchuria, China, and Russia, where she reported on the military tension at the Korean borders.
