When her parents split up and she moves to a different town, Emma is skeptical of everything new, including the stuffed polar bear her mom gives her. She names the bear Ralph (as in upchuck) and tosses him aside. But when Ralph comes to life and helps Emma with her experiments and inventions, could this unlikely friendship be just what Emma needs to give change a chance? A hilarious and heartwarming story inspired by such classics as Calvin and Hobbes, Corduroy and Knuffle Bunny.



As the half-blood son of a Greek god, Percy Jackson has newly discovered powers he can't control, a destiny he doesn't want, and a mythology textbook's worth of monsters on his trail. When Zeus's master lightning bolt is stolen, and Percy becomes the prime suspect, he has to find and return the bolt to prove his innocence and prevent a war between the gods. But to succeed in his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the thief. He must travel to the Underworld and back, solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend, and come to terms with the father who abandoned him.
