Lester was just your average well-loved, housebound house cat. He enjoyed eating, playing with his favourite toys, and looking out the window—watching the other animals play in the grass. He was also a bit of a giant, with long grey hair and big green eyes that looked like olives, and his long fluffy tail twitched when he wanted to play with the animals out the window. Oh, and he had a mysteriously missing ear tip. Then, one day, his pampered lifestyle completely changed, when Lester took the chance to step outside and go on an adventure. So begins Lester’s Great Adventure. But while having the time of his life—encountering the sights and smells of the outside world—Lester gets lost. Disoriented as he runs from a loud noise, he hides under a deck, venturing out only to encounter noisy kids playing hockey on the street, and retreating back under deck. Will Lester find his courage and his way home? Will his owners help to rescue him? And if he does make it home, will he even be happy to see Tess, his owners other cat, who never wants to play with him? Based on a true story, Lester’s Great Adventure follows an ordinary giant house cat who journeys out on an adventure only to find himself lost and unable to find his way home. Written for children aged seven years old and younger, Lester’s Great Adventure shows young readers how sometimes you have to take a chance and be brave, and sometimes we all need a little help to find our way.

With a New Afterword: THE INSIDE STORY OF WHAT WENT WRONG AFTER 2016! David Kaplan of CSN Chicago and ESPN Radio goes behind the scenes with the Cubs and their front office, walking the steps of their captivating rise to becoming 2016 World Series champions On October 12, 2011, Theo Epstein became the new Chicago Cubs president of baseball operations, flipping a switch on the lovable-loser franchise and initiating a plan to accomplish in Chicago what he'd succeeded in as general manager of the Boston Red Sox: ending a World Series drought. It would require a complete team tear-down and turnover, a new farm system foundation of young talent which Epstein and Cubs GM Jed Hoyer gradually added to with gutsy trades and timely signings. After years of rebuilding, Epstein's vision was realized in the form of one of the most exciting and talented teams in baseball, led by heavyweights like Anthony Rizzo and Kris Bryant, as well as visionaries like manager Joe Maddon. Then the challenge became making the success last. Featuring exclusive interviews with Epstein, owner Tom Ricketts, and other team insiders, this is the definitive account of modern baseball on the North Side.
