Who could ever imagine that a huge, colorful balloon floating above the town of Katville would bring such menace and terror to the inhabitants? The balloon first appeared one balmy spring day, lazily drifting in the pale blue sky, and rumors had it that there would be rides available. That was exciting news. Cousin Fred, visiting Patty-Cat and Kittle on spring break, and several of their friends, all gathered in Susie's beautiful backyard and talked about coming plans and projects. Billy-Bom-Tom came home to sing in a concert, Al had a solo, Fred was in the orchestra and everyone was looking forward to the concert. Some kittens were first missed at the bat-ball team practice. When it was discovered that they, along with others, were nowhere to be found, the big search began. It was fortunate that a friend, Mrs. Mockingbird, overheard the plot and was able to warn the townspeople and further, to enlist many birds and animals of the forest to also come to their aid. But, part of the news that Mrs. Mockingbird told them concerned the goblins joining the catnappers. Those awful misbehaving folk would be hard to deal with. With Mr. Tom-Cat's organizing ability, Captain Dom-Cat's battle experience, and helpful birds, animals, and fairies, it would be quite a battle.. Won't you join us and hear all about the evil catnappers and the battle in Grants Wood? It's all in the book.

No one had ever heard of the Duke and Duchess of Manx until the whole town of Katville was shaken to its rafters by the news: the Duke and Duchess were coming to town and bringing a theatrical company with them! Every aspiring singer, dancer, and even the pathetically untalented actors were hoping to get a part in the show and become stars! Some of Patty-Cat and Kittle's friends who were away at school or working, were arriving back in town, and had parts in the musical. Cousin Fred returned on spring break and was hired to play in the orchestra. Chester, now working part-time on The Daily Howl, was covering these events. Patty-Cat volunteered to help paint scenery, Susie auditioned and was accepted as a dancer, Al was in the chorus, and Billy-Bom-Tom came home full of glory and a major part in the show. Naturally, whatever attracted the rich and swank also attracted the riffraff who no longer worked for a living but chose to make do with what they could lift from those who had more. Among the undesirables were two cat burglars who planned to lift the Duchess's diamonds. Little Minikin tried to warn her adopted family, but no one understood the warning. The show finally opened, and there was a gala reception at the hotel, The Cat's Pause, where mayhem soon broke out. To find out what happens to the good friends and buddies of Katville, read the book!

Who hasn't dreamed of a fabulous magic flying carpet taking us on journeys in which our every wish comes true? Kittle certainly thought she had found her own magic carpet when Professor Digger talked about Ancient Egypt and said he would take her there. He claimed he had found a portal and through a series of dials and levers, it would transport anyone to anywhere. Kittle insisted Patty-Cat come with her, but Patty-Cat refused. She had entered a baking contest and wouldn't even discuss using a portal which might not even exist. When Kittle says she is going alone, Patty-Cat tells her mother, Angel, who calls her good friend, Mr. Tom-Cat. He agrees to investigate Professor Digger. At the bake-off, Little Minikin, who is psychic, the adopted kitten of the neighbors next door, whispers to Kittle that if she goes with the professor she won't come home again. Meanwhile, many residents of Katville have been invited to a fabulous dinner and scavenger hunt by Mr. Tom-Cat for his adopted son, Billy-Bom-Tom, who had the night off from the rehearsal of the musical, Hanoj. Who wins the bake-off? What about the hair-raising conclusion to the projected trip to Ancient Egypt--is it safe or not? Can Angel stop the proposed trip? The answers to all these pressing questions are found inside this book so you can read all about the exciting events in Katville for yourself.

Excitement is running high at 112 Liver Lane, where Angel, and her two kittens, Patty-Cat and Kittle, are preparing for the holiday season. Cousin Fred and his mother, Sunny, are expected to visit, there's baking to be done, gifts to wrap, a tree to decorate. Of course, first they need to get a tree. A Christmas parade is planned for the residents of Katville. The mayor and dignitaries will attend and friends will be in the parade. Just to prove that few things go smoothly a grinding noise shatters nerves; plaster and dirt fill the air, and ... horror, of horrors, that impish elf, Grimsby appears, creating turmoil and scattering debris everywhere. Fortunately this time he brings a tree and of course it has to be decorated. The annoying resident spider, Miss Wilma Weaver, likes to stir up things, and the two sheep dogs, Hal and Sam, romp through the season, as joyfully and stupid and rambunctious as ever. Two new kittens come to town, one unhappy feisty one and another who was cruelly abandoned. Miss Maisey and Miss Katty-Kat, sisters who live next door at 114 Liver Lane, receive an unexpected but cherished Christmas gift and the animals all gather for the solemn Midnight event. If you are curious as to how the two sisters become kind and happy, (quite an about-face), or if you want to find out how everything ends, or if you just want a good read, try this book.

The Comma Queen returns with a buoyant book about language, love, and the wine-dark sea. In her New York Times bestseller Between You & Me, Mary Norris delighted readers with her irreverent tales of pencils and punctuation in The New Yorker’s celebrated copy department. In Greek to Me, she delivers another wise and funny paean to the art of self-expression, this time filtered through her greatest passion: all things Greek. Greek to Me is a charming account of Norris’s lifelong love affair with words and her solo adventures in the land of olive trees and ouzo. Along the way, Norris explains how the alphabet originated in Greece, makes the case for Athena as a feminist icon, goes searching for the fabled Baths of Aphrodite, and reveals the surprising ways Greek helped form English. Filled with Norris’s memorable encounters with Greek words, Greek gods, Greek wine—and more than a few Greek men—Greek to Me is the Comma Queen’s fresh take on Greece and the exotic yet strangely familiar language that so deeply influences our own.

This book is an in-depth analysis of three of the most crucial years in twentieth-century Italian history, the years 1943-46. After more than two decades of a Fascist regime and a disastrous war experience during which Italy changed sides, these years saw the laying of the political and cultural foundations for what has since become known as Italy's First Republic. Drawing on texts from the literature, film, journalism, and political debate of the period, Antifascisms offers a thorough survey of the personalities and positions that informed the decisions taken in this crucial phase of modern Italian history.

"This new edition of Merriam-Webster's Rhyming Dictionary contains over 71,000 rhyming words, about 16,000 more than the first edition. The additions naturally include words that have come into common use since the earlier book's publication -- words such as busk, blog, out-there, dreadlocked, fearmonger, and jaw-dropper. But most of the book's additions are not actually new to the language. For the first time, most of the two-, three-, four-, and five-word entries found in Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary have been given their own place in this volume's lists of rhyming words."--Preface.
