|rating= 4
|genre= Horror
|summary= For three nights every month when the moon is full, children living in a small isolated town who have reached puberty experience 'breaching'. On these nights, their actions are dictated by either passion or violence – they become feral and animalistic abandoning their human nature to run wild and naked in the streets. Beginning, typically at 15 the breach lasts for approximately a year and after, those children become adults. 'When We Were Animals' follows Lumen Fowler's life growing up in the town expressing her desire to be different and avoid the town's rite of passage into adulthood. Lumen is determined not to be overcome by the moon and control her own destiny; after all her mother didn't 'breach' so neither will she. But slowly one by one her peers breach and she's left behind struggling to grow up, becoming more and more aware of her dark wild side.

|title= Lulu and the Chocolate Wedding
|rating= 5
|genre= Emerging Readers
|summary= Unusual, quirky children's books can be hit or miss, but this one is a definite hit. Told in cartoon strip form, with illustrations reminiscent of the brilliant ''Raymond Briggs'', it mixes the real world with dreamy fantasies that have a touch of [[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll and Sir John Tenniel]] to them.
