Synopsis The Swap by : Antony Moore

Ever have a moment you wish you could undo? A wickedly brilliant tale of revenge, mystery, and fate, Antony Moore’s The Swap is at once a gripping thriller and a hilarious black comedy—a book for anyone who’s ever wondered what could have been. . . . Harvey Briscow—smoker, drinker, comic-shop owner—is facing another school reunion back in Cornwall. Having spent the last two decades second-guessing himself, Harvey isn’t thrilled at the prospect of showing his classmates the mess he’s made of his life. But this is Harvey’s twentieth reunion, a milestone that all but guarantees that Charles “Bleeder” Odd—the freakish reject who made off with Harvey’s now-priceless Superman One comic in a school-yard swap—will be in attendance. But when Harvey returns to Cornwall, hoping to retrieve his comic, he’s met with more than a few surprises. . . . Bleeder is now dazzlingly successful—and quite content to watch Harvey squirm, refusing to acknowledge their long-ago trade. And Harvey—fueled by drink and the promise of a beautiful woman—soon makes a fateful choice, one he instantly wishes he could undo. A dead body and an enraged husband further complicate matters . . . but there’s a silver lining in this strange chain of events: suddenly one bad swap is the least of Harvey’s regrets. . . .

Synopsis Girl' to Boys' School Swap Tales 2 by : Glynis Dunnit

Boy bully seeking order, discipline sent to co-ed liberal school, finds a unit within it where rules are rigidly enforced, commits to join them, finds her place; as a well-disciplined schoolgirl! Much fun is had by the 'boys', at 'her' expense! Grown-up girls subvert a boys school, take it over, force hated boy cousin into a the girlie role mapped out for the ringleader, recreate the school games of their youth. Ineffectual patronising young Schoolmaster puts down a young girl's acting; she has her revenge through hypnosis to first feminise the class bully, then takes his place, and has him take her's, and then puts both of them through some very salutary humiliation and punishments to make the change permanent. Headmistress forced to employ a schoolmaster by the Chairwoman of the Governors, when she'd have preferred all her teachers to be women; the 'gels' oblige and feminise, then cane him, leading to some very interesting and penetrating liaisons amongst the pupils and staff!

Synopsis The Art of the Swap by : Kristine Asselin

Freaky Friday meets Downton Abbey in this middle grade mystery that features a modern day twelve-year-old switching bodies with a Gilded Age heiress in order to solve a famous art heist. Hannah Jordan lives in a museum…well, sort of. She is the daughter of the caretaker for mansion-turned-museum The Elms in Newport, Rhode Island. Hannah’s captivated by stories of The Elms’s original occupants, especially Maggie Dunlap, the tween heiress subject of a painting that went missing during a legendary art heist in 1905. But when a mysterious mirror allows Hannah and Maggie to switch places in time, suddenly Hannah is racing to stop the heist from happening, while Maggie gets an introduction to iPhones, soccer (which girls can play!), and freedoms like exploring without supervision. Not to mention the best invention of all: sweatpants (so long, corsets!). As the hours tick away toward the art heist, something’s not adding up. Can the girls work together against time—and across it—to set things right? Or will their temporary swap become a permanent trade?

Synopsis Folk Songs of the Southern Appalachians as Sung by Jean Ritchie by : Jean Ritchie

This new edition has faithfully retained all seventy-seven line scores of the songs and added four new ones, Loving Hannah, Lovin' Henry, Her Mantle So Green, and The Reckless and Rambling Boy. The original headnotes and photographs tell the history of the song as well as how it became a part of the family's life. Chords are indicated for accompaniment; however, music notation and the printed word can present only a reasonable facsimile of any actual song.
