In BJ Lamberti's fourth installment of her juvenile historical fiction series,Nelson Paige under the Turquoise SkyNelson, his father, and their dog, Ivy, journey to the arid lands of Arizona to visit the cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde and Canyon de Chelly.

Nelson's Kachina doll, a charm of the Hopi people who are descendants of the Anasazi, begins to exhibit magical powers. Nelson is taken backward in time to the era of the cliff dwellers, where he learns the culture and day-to-day activities of Mustard Seed, Big Turtle, and Little Turtle, Anasazi Indians. But will he ever find his way back home? Find out inNelson Paige under the Turquoise Sky.

Nelson Paige and his Grandfather awake at dawn to a sea that is like a gray void emerging out of an expansive black night. Dawn, the third day of their adventure, creeps in with a sliver of salmon-pink sky, and the wind starts to inch upward in the southwest. Ever so quietly Grandfather places his finger into the air, an old-fashioned technique of predicting the weather-but in his estimation dependable. Within hours the wind seems to pick up momentum and begins to blow. The system spins faster and faster. "It's a force-9," assures Grandfather. The sea becomes gray and marbled, and it begins to rise. Lightening flashes across the sky, and he counts the seconds before he hears the thunder. Rain sputters down the steel-colored sky, and the horizon is blotted out by a huge wall of gray water. The ocean belches forth violently during the storm unwanted debris. After the storm subsides, Nelson Paige walks the shore, where discovers an alabaster container dusted by a thousand ocean storms that changes his life forevermore. Nelson Paige Rides a Whale is the third in a series of four historical novels: People of the Forest and Lakes (Iroquois), People of the Plains (Pawnee/Cherokee), People of the Rivers and Sea (Okonogan), and People of the Deserts and Mesas (Navajos). Born in the Midwest, BJ Lamberti lives in California. Her other titles include Nelson Paige and the Treasure Trove and Nelson Paige and the Dream Catcher.

From the publisher of Pipette Magazine, discover a natural wine-soaked memoir about finding your passion—and falling in love. It was Rachel Signer's dream to be that girl: the one smoking hand-rolled cigarettes out the windows of her 19th-century Parisian studio apartment, wearing second-hand Isabel Marant jeans and sipping a glass of Beaujolais redolent of crushed roses with a touch of horse mane. Instead she was an under-appreciated freelance journalist and waitress in New York City, frustrated at always being broke and completely miserable in love. When she tastes her first pétillant-naturel (pét-nat for short), a type of natural wine made with no additives or chemicals, it sets her on a journey of self-discovery, both deeply personal and professional, that leads her to Paris, Italy, Spain, Georgia, and finally deep into the wilds of South Australia and which forces her, in the face of her "Wildman," to ask herself the hard question: can she really handle the unconventional life she claims she wants? Have you ever been sidetracked by something that turned into a career path? Did you ever think you were looking for a certain kind of romantic partner, but fell in love with someone wild, passionate and with a completely different life? For Signer, the discovery of natural wine became an introduction to a larger ethos and philosophy that she had long craved: one rooted in egalitarianism, diversity, organics, environmental concerns, and ancient traditions. In You Had Me at Pét-Nat, as Signer begins to truly understand these revolutionary wine producers upending the industry, their deep commitment to making their wine with integrity and with as little intervention as possible, she is smacked with the realization that unless she faces, head-on, her own issues with commitment, she will not be able to live a life that is as freewheeling, unpredictable, and singular as the wine she loves.
