Book Description
Remember that drum set you bought your nephew for Christmas a few years ago? Your brother does. Aside from being expensive, amusements like drum sets and pianos are hard to carry around with you and take many hours of painful practice to learn. In Me and My Shadows there is a gift that is easy to learn, educational, physically beneficial, and always "right at hand" to provide amusement. It is fueled by your imagination. Buy this book. Give it to your nephew for his birthday. Buy several. Don't neglect your niece. Your relatives will be pleased and excited by this gift that will give endless pleasure and amusement to children of all ages. Where else could you find something this good? It's even a perfect gift to give to yourself! Think of the hours of enjoyment you can have by developing a few simple skills and having the portfolio of characters in this book at your command! Me and My Shadows is now even better with practical paper pastimes to amuse, entertain, and impress- timeless simple treasures for children to remember fondly- and share in turn with their grandchildren. Imagine visiting friends and being an immediate hit with either hand shadow characters or simple practical paper pastimes. Great for scouts, babysitters, or just bonding on rainy afternoons. Be an expert in amusement! Me and My Shadows is much better than a drum set and, for many, will bring back memories of a simpler time when entertainment was in your own hands.

Book Description
For fans of Small Spaces, Coraline, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and James Howe's Bunnicula classics comes the first book in the award-winning, New York Times bestselling Books of Elsewhere series. This house is keeping secrets . . . When eleven-year-old Olive and her parents move into the crumbling mansion on Linden Street and find it filled with mysterious paintings, Olive knows the place is creepy—but it isn’t until she encounters its three talking cats that she realizes there’s something darkly magical afoot. Then Olive finds a pair of antique spectacles in a dusty drawer and discovers the most peculiar thing yet: She can travel inside the house’s spooky paintings to a world that’s strangely quiet . . . and eerily sinister. But in entering Elsewhere, Olive has been ensnared in a mystery darker and more dangerous than she could have imagined, confronting a power that wants to be rid of her by any means necessary. With only the cats and an unusual boy she meets in Elsewhere on her side, it’s up to Olive to save the house from the shadows, before the lights go out for good.
