"Lady-bird, lady-bird, fly away home, The field-mouse has gone to her nest; The daisies have shut up their sleepy red eyes, And the birds and the bees are at rest." Mr. Carlyle, standing outside the nursery door, stayed a moment until the sweet low voice had reached the end of the verse, then, turning the handle very gently, entered the room on tiptoe. Faith looked up with a smile, but with a warning finger held out, while in a lower and more crooning voice she began the next verse: "Lady-bird, lady-bird, fly away home, The glow-worm is lighting her lamp--" "Oh, dear!" as two round blue eyes looked up at her, full of sleepy wickedness, "She is as wide awake when I began! Baby, you are not a nice little girl and I shan't be able to go on loving you if you don't go to sleep soon." The blue eyes, wandering from Faith's reproving face, fell on her father, and with a croon of delight a pair of plump dimpled arms was held out pleadingly. "Dad! Dad!" cooed the baby voice coaxingly, and the arms were not held out in vain. Faith handed over her heavy, lovable burden with a mingled sigh of relief and hopelessness. "This is all wrong, you know, father," with a weary little laugh, "a well brought up baby should be sound asleep by this time-but how is one to make her sleep if she absolutely refuses to?"

This work presents an intriguing character study of Audrey Craven, a pretty little woman with copper-colored hair and the soul of a spoiled child. Though "a good woman," she has a destructive fascination for most men. The writer, throughout the work, entertains the readers by emphasizing relationships and emotions in Audrey's life.

A dead body. An exclusive community. Was it really an accident? When Sudanese teenager Arol Chol turns up dead at the foot of the prestigious Chilton Hill, local journalist Audrey Lord is first on the scene. Chilton Hill’s wealthy residents believe Arol was robbing one of the residents before he fell from the cliff at the bottom of their property. At the authorities’ request, Audrey agrees to report it as an accident - for now. But Aro was popular and an excellent student. There was no reason for him to rob one of the well-secured residents — certainly not on his own. As Audrey digs deeper, she discovers not everyone was happy with Aro’s plan to move to the Peninsula. From the Chilton Hill residents to members of his old community and even those inside his own family, it seems everyone has an axe to grind. As Audrey investigates and race relations run high, she finds herself torn between the inflammatory views of the wealthy residents, Aro’s grieving family, and the South Sudanese community. She wants to give Aro’s family answers, but if she’s wrong, it will cost her career and leave a killer on the loose. Nobody will be safe. Perfect for readers of Sally Rigby, Robert Galbraith, Faith Martin, Joy Ellis, and Bill Kitson.

This book explores how mental illness is portrayed in 21st-century young adult fiction and how selected works can help teachers, librarians, and mental health professionals to more effectively address the needs of students combating mental illness. Mental Illness in Young Adult Literature: Exploring Real Struggles through Fictional Characters highlights American young adult literature published since the year 2000 that features characters grappling with mental illness. Chapters focus on mental disorders identified by the most recent Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, and OCD. Each chapter begins with a description of a mental illness that includes its prevalence, demographic trends, symptoms, related disorders, and treatment options before examining a selection of young adult texts in depth. Analysis of the texts explores how a mental illness manifests for a particular character, how that character perceives him- or herself and is perceived by others, and what treatment or support he or she receives. The connections between mental illness and race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and identity are examined, and relevant research from education, psychology, and adolescent health is thoroughly integrated. Each chapter also provides a list of additional readings. An appendix offers strategies for integrating young adult literature into health curricula and other programs.
