Astra Publishing House The Mallow Marsh Monster
Book SynopsisIn this second book in the comic-horror The Goolz Next Door series, twelve-year-old Harold and his quirky neighbors contend with a legendary monster that lives in the nearby Mallow Marsh. Immediately picking up where A Bad Night for Bullies left off, Harold is now an official member of the Goolz team, comprised of eccentric horror author Frank Goolz and his daughters Suzie and Ilona (who is also Harold's kinda-sorta girlfriend). A set of twins has come to the Goolz for help in finding their missing mother, whom they believe has been taken by the monster rumored to live in the Mallow Marsh. When the (very real) monster bites Harold, his bizarre symptoms cause him to fear he is transforming into a monster himself. Then Suzie is taken, and it's up to Harold and Ilona to save her, prevent the formation of future marsh monsters, and stop Harold's own frightening transformation.Trade Review"In this second book in the Goolz Next Door series, Harold Bell continues to investigate paranormal activity along with his neighbor, famous horror novelist Frank Goolz, and Frank’s daughters. This spooky tale is delightfully, comically gruesome, and the marsh creates the perfect setting for a monster (or monsters) that slings thick goop wherever they go. It’s a fast-paced read...a lively quick pick for reluctant readers in search of action, and an ending line of 'All hell broke loose' promises even more otherworldly entertainment to come." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's books"Ghislain’s rather unorthodox, yet delightfully fun, mix of characters and their wild adventures makes trite the old adage, 'Nothing ever happens in my town.' With just enough fright and action, he weaves another page-turner for middle-grade readers that will leave them wanting more."—Booklist

Astra Publishing House CATastrophe!: A Story of Patterns
Book SynopsisNine kittens go on an exciting boating adventure that's a (funny) catastrophe in this playful picture book that demonstrates the key math concept of patterns. A crew of hungry kittens and their captain head to the lake to catch some dinner, but the fish have surprises in store for them. Even before the cats encounter the fish, they run into trouble. What happens when confused kitties paddle every which way? Or when they all lean in the same direction? A pattern is needed to avoid a catastrophe! Patterns are the foundation on which math is built. Using strong rhythm, clever wordplay, and countable characters, CATastrophe! is a fun read-aloud that also shows what patterns can do. Helpful backmatter will deepen readers' understanding and challenge them to find more patterns in this book and in our world. There's also much to find in the illustrations-including a dragonfly and worm that each appear twenty times.Trade Review"Stephens deftly incorporates the concepts of patterns and pattern cores into her simple tale and includes an enjoyable explanatory page at the close as well as integrated seek-and-find challenges. Harney's bright, energy-filled cartoons are a great match and maintain a fine balance of cute, color, comedy...and cats. Playfulness makes repeated reads a must for fans of cats or calculation." -Kirkus Reviews "A great read-aloud and a strong pick for early math collections." -Booklist
