This book by author D. Pinkwater is for ages 9-12 and takes everyday life and changes it so that it is just odd enough to make it implausible. Highlights include the Fish who Thought it was Drowning, the Mix, Mush, and Microwave vending machine, and the submarine whose name was 'The Flying Piggie'. No morals in these stories! They are pure silliness. This volume contains four books: Borgle, Yobgorgle, The Worms of Kukulima, The Snarkout Boys and the Baconburg Horror.

This book by author W. Isdell is for young adults. Julie hates algebra - until she meets Al, and the Periodic horses and they journey through the Land of Mathematics, where the Orders of Operations are real places and fruits that look like Bohr models grow on chemistrees. Wonderfully written and a joy to read, it's full of math and science basics made fun and accessible.

This series of ten books by author L. Snicket is for ages 9-12. These books tell an unhappy tale about three very unlucky children. Even though the Baudelaire siblings are charming and clever, they lead lives filled with misery and woe. From the very first page of the book in the series when the children are at the beach and receive terrible news, continuing on through the entire story, disaster lurks at their heels. One might say they are magnets for misfortune.
