A masterful collection from an important new voice in American fiction, Night Beast is a gorgeously written work of profound originality and vision. These doomed love stories and twisted fairytales explore the lives of women--particularly queer women and mothers--and reveal the monsters lurking in our daily lives: the madness, isolation, betrayals, and regrets that arise as we seek human connection. Through this collection, readers are taken to places where the sun never sets, where cornfields rustle ominously and sleepwalkers prowl the night. In "Weekend," the lead actors of an avant-garde television show begin to confuse their characters' identities with their own; in "Go West, and Grow Up," a young girl living in a car with her mother is forced to shed her innocence too soon; and in "Safekeeping," a woman trapped inside a futuristic safehouse gradually unravels as she waits for her lover, who may never return. With exquisite prose and transfixing imagery, Joffre explores worlds both strange and familiar, homing in on the darker side of humanity. Powerful, unsettling, and wildly imaginative, Night Beast is a mind-bending, genre-hopping debut, a provocative and uncommonly raw examination of relationships and sexuality, trauma and redemption, the meaning of family, and coming-of-age--and growing old--as an outsider.Binding Type: Paperback

A fun , interactive animal book by the amazing Eric Carley.
Format: Board book
My grandson loves to read this book. Even though he's only a year and a half old, he is engaged by pushing the sound button that matches the animal on each page.

Format: Board book
My daughter and I enjoy reading this. She matches the pictures on the pages with those on the buttons. Lots of words she already knows and a good mix of new words. Durable hardback pages.

Who doesn't like Eric Carle books?
Format: Board book
Always been a fan of Eric Carle books. My 10 month old likes the sounds and pictures. He has other similar books, but we like him to see a variety of illustrations. With the pandemic going on, my he is missing out on a lot. One day we will go to the zoo and see real animals, but for now these books will have to do.
