Set during and after World War II, Curtis Anderson, is frequently joined by his three friends from Roosevelt School in suspenseful adventures in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Encumbered with wearing heavy thick lensed glasses, and carrying a negative reputation with his classmates, his challenge is to prove that leadership and integrity are built by positive experiences. Beginning with a solo ninety-mile bicycle trip as a twelve year old, he is joined in the following years by his friends rafting and ski jumping. Another solo trip in a home made canoe takes him into a forest fire in Canada. In his sophomore year in high school, the four boys find themselves trapped in an iron mine tunnel. Finally, entering their senior year in high school, they meet an Amish family and are confronted with a different way of life. Rebuilding an old Peogeot Bicycle together with Luke Miller, and the big Mt. Zion Road Race brings the five boys to a fork in the road. Mr. Miller tells the boys, “We hold to the belief of humility. Competition has a way of promoting pride.” Luke will not ride his bike in the race. Will the only ten speed bicycle in northern Michigan enter the race? Is sports competition the glory of self? Curtis Anderson encounters

Wes Anderson's beloved films announce themselves through a singular aesthetic - one that seems too vivid, unique, and meticulously constructed to possibly be real. Not so - in Accidentally Wes Anderson, Wally Koval collects the world's most Anderson-like sites in all their faded grandeur and pop-pastel colours, telling the story behind each stranger than-fiction-location. Based on the viral online phenomenon and community of the same name, Accidentally Wes Anderson celebrates the unique aesthetic that millions of Anderson fans love - capturing the symmetrical, the atypical, the unexpected, the vibrantly patterned, and distinctively coloured in arresting photographs from around the world. Authorised by Wes Anderson himself, and appealing to the millions who love his films, this book is also for fans of Cabin Porn and Van Life - and avid travellers and aspiring adventurers of all kinds.

Luckily, Jasper Dash and his friends Katie Mulligan and Lily Gefelty are around to save the day. Sure, Lily Gefelty is just an average twelve-year-old girl. But her dad—a normal-enough-seeming guy—just so happens to work for an evil genius who plans to unleash an army of extremely cranky, stilt-walking, laser-beam-eyed whales upon the world. Lucky for Lily, her two best friends are anything but average. Both of them are famous for their adventures. Jasper Dash, Boy Technonaut, invents gadgets; Katie Mulligan spends her spare time fighting off zombies and were-goats. Surely they’ll know what to do. And if they don’t?
