Why is the Moon Following Me? is a series of fun, short poems for children to familiarize them with the story of early astronomy. Through the eyes of a curious child, we travel through time and encounter the discoveries of seven great thinkers from antiquity to the end of the Renaissance. Astronomy can be intimidating, even to adults, and this book is also for them, as a way to introduce their kids, and themselves, to some important key concepts.
From the bars of New York's East Village to the neon forest of Tokyo's underworld, from the hidden waterfalls of Hawaii to the slums of Mexico City, this is a journey that spans continents and mental states. Driven ever onwards by a savage love, Keelin is searching for her sister, Aisling, who disappeared from her home in Ireland one summer without warning. Her family is devastated, haunted by the loss, with only exotic postcards as hints to her whereabouts. But the postcards have long since dried up and Keelin is determined to track her sister down. And as she visits the places where Aisling has been and encounters the trail of friends and lovers that her sister has left behind, she finds herself being sucked into the dark, erotic world that Aisling inhabits...

Each successive Taliban-like regime turns the year back to zero, as if to begin history again. Unaccustomed to such restrictions, she finds herself imprisoned and pregnant. To survive, she tells the story of her family to her unborn child. What did happen to the two beautiful and vulnerable refugee kids placed in the care of Uncle Mo, in his Malibu ocean house?
Pooka - Most people don't realize that modern day Halloween is derived from an ancient Irish festival that was brought over to the United States by Irish immigrants. Emer Martin's new book is a modern take on an ancient Irish folktale, launching just in time for Halloween. From the old Irish 'Puca, which means 'goblin', a Pooka is a shape-shifter and can take any form it chooses but usually it is seen in the form of a dog, rabbit, goat, goblin or even an old man. Traditionally a Pooka is seen as a dark, sleek horse with a long wild flowing mane and luminescent golden eyes. The central character in Pooka is Orla, a troubled young girl who often creates her own problems. When the mysterious, playful Pooka takes her on a wild ride up to the moon where she meets an even more-troubled witch, they all need to learn the art of cooperation so they can safely make it back to earth.
