NOW OPTIONED FOR TELEVISION! A heartwarming, clever, and memorable mystery by Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Amy Vansant. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "One of the best surprise ending I have read.." The relationships between young and old, sprinkling of romance, small-town warmth, and the cast of unforgettable characters will make Pineapple Port Mysteries your new favorite series! Charlotte Morgan isn't your average Pineapple Port 55+ community neighbor. She's 26 years old—adopted by a whole neighborhood of retirees as a child. She's had an unusual upbringing—pickleball instead of proms, golf carts instead of gossip. Well, that's not true. Pineapple Port has tons of gossip. Her unusual upbringing has left Charlotte an oddball among her peers, but she's lucky—she has Mariska and Darla, her late grandmother's neighbors, to love and watch over her. Still, lately, she's been feeling restless. Something's missing. Is it the human skeleton buried in her garden? Nope. She just found that. In an instant, she goes from lonely and bored to trapped in a web of lies. Her neighbors are acting squirrelly, there's a corpse in her garden and a handsome pawnbroker is hovering in the yard...Does he know the dead woman? And could she have invented a worst way to make a first impression? Charlotte's found-family is ready to help her solve the mystery…but there's a problem... She's starting to think one of them might be this cold case's killer... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman is huge right now, and if you like that you will love Pineapple LIes. Personally, I have to say I enjoyed this even more." - author Tommy Ueland Throughout the series, you find killers, crazy ex-girlfriends, loving dogs, romance, treasure hunts, government operatives, FBI agents, danger... and a cast of characters almost as funny as they are loving, supportive and brave.

"This remarkable set of essays defines the role of imagination in general education, arts education, aesthetics, literature, and the social and multicultural context.... The author argues for schools to be restructured as places where students reach out for meanings and where the previously silenced or unheard may have a voice. She invites readers to develop processes to enhance and cultivate their own visions through the application of imagination and the arts. Releasing the Imagination should be required reading for all educators, particularly those in teacher education, and for general and academic readers." —Choice "Maxine Greene, with her customary eloquence, makes an impassioned argument for using the arts as a tool for opening minds and for breaking down the barriers to imagining the realities of worlds other than our own familiar cultures.... There is a strong rhythm to the thoughts, the arguments, and the entire sequence of essays presented here." —American Journal of Education "Releasing the Imagination gives us a vivid portrait of the possibilities of human experience and education's role in its realization. It is a welcome corrective to current pressures for educational conformity." —Elliot W. Eisner, professor of education and art, Stanford University "Releasing the Imagination challenges all the cant and cliché littering the field of education today. It breaks through the routine, the frozen, the numbing, the unexamined; it shocks the reader into new awareness." —William Ayers, associate professor, College of Education, University of Illinois, Chicago
