A mesmerising new story and instant classic from the beloved author of the best-selling Very Cranky Bear books. Fancy Pants Tower is the biggest, shiniest building in the city. And Wolfred operates the lift. Each day he silently observes the extraordinary things he sees as he passes between the floors of the tower. To his boss, Wolfred isn't important enough to notice. But Wolfred notices everything - big or small, normal or very, very strange ... Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel meets Helen Oxenbury's The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig in this hilariously oddball tale of Wolfred, an endearing elevator operator and writer, and the strange building he works in.

The Essential Guide for Managing Leadership Turnovers A leadership transition can be a time of high vulnerability for a nonprofit organization. On the other hand, an executive turnover offers unique opportunities for renewal and fresh thinking. Managing Executive Transitions shows how this state of transition can give board and staff members a chance to put things back together in new and creative ways—to discard some old pieces and to bring in fresh elements. Nonprofit boards and executive directors will find practical advice on how to manage leadership turnovers in ways that can heighten mission impact while avoiding potential downsides. Author Tim Wolfred recommends a transformational process of three phases: Prepare, Pivot, and Thrive. In the Prepare phase board members, staff, volunteers, and funders engage in an efficient process for updating the agency's strategic directions and crafting a profile of the skills needed in the next executive. In the Pivot phase a search ensues, conducted by a board reinvigorated and excited about the agency's future impact. In the Thrive phase the board engages the newly hired executive as a leadership partner and gives him or her clear performance priorities derived from the strategic directions. Engaging case studies and hands-on tools such as planning agendas, timelines, sample letters, and communication tips will smooth the transition to new executive leadership.

One of TIME’s 100 Best Fantasy Books of All Time Winner of the L.A. Times Ray Bradbury Prize Finalist for the 2019 National Book Award The New York Times Bestseller Named a Best Book of 2019 by The Wall Street Journal, TIME, NPR, GQ, Vogue, and The Washington Post "A fantasy world as well-realized as anything Tolkien made." --Neil Gaiman "Gripping, action-packed....The literary equivalent of a Marvel Comics universe." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times The epic novel from the Man Booker Prize-winning author of A Brief History of Seven Killings In the stunning first novel in Marlon James's Dark Star trilogy, myth, fantasy, and history come together to explore what happens when a mercenary is hired to find a missing child. Tracker is known far and wide for his skills as a hunter: "He has a nose," people say. Engaged to track down a mysterious boy who disappeared three years earlier, Tracker breaks his own rule of always working alone when he finds himself part of a group that comes together to search for the boy. The band is a hodgepodge, full of unusual characters with secrets of their own, including a shape-shifting man-animal known as Leopard. As Tracker follows the boy's scent--from one ancient city to another; into dense forests and across deep rivers--he and the band are set upon by creatures intent on destroying them. As he struggles to survive, Tracker starts to wonder: Who, really, is this boy? Why has he been missing for so long? Why do so many people want to keep Tracker from finding him? And perhaps the most important questions of all: Who is telling the truth, and who is lying? Drawing from African history and mythology and his own rich imagination, Marlon James has written a novel unlike anything that's come before it: a saga of breathtaking adventure that's also an ambitious, involving read. Defying categorization and full of unforgettable characters, Black Leopard, Red Wolf is both surprising and profound as it explores the fundamentals of truth, the limits of power, and our need to understand them both.

Undying Love Mystery Sealed in the Great Beyond DREAMSTAR — Ghostly Call A ship’s bell faintly sounded in the distance. In this direction, David looked up higher toward the large Magellan Cloud and its entrance guard, the Tarantula Star. For several seconds, a deadly quiet engulfed the drifting, mysterious clouds. Then he saw it. The mariner’s vessel… sailing into the large cloud formation. David knew the ghostly figure garbed in hooded white, positioned at the helm. The spirit beckoned, waiting. — Rendezvous above the Southern Cross, Ch. 15 A courageous leap up into the night sky to answer a ghostly call of his deceased grandfather — an Army casualty of the Vietnam War — leads to frightening and supernatural events for David Raymond Stone. Reality and recurring dreams have become almost indistinguishable as David wrestles with his tormented thoughts about honoring a war-slain grandfather whose name is etched on a menacing black Wall, while trying to unravel a forgotten mystery. Having reached a pivotal point in life as sudden, blossoming love delights his senses and captivates his heart, David grows more perplexed as his grandfather’s spirit carries him to seafaring venues revealing a mariner’s means, a brass key perhaps fitting a wooden box, and a long-lost letter — all seemingly connected to Polaris. Painting starry constellations to win a possible art scholarship, and hoping for a chance with ethereal beauty Rachel, are at the highest rung while David copes with life-threatening, dangerous odds at school. Still, to complicate David’s struggles further, the mysterious ghost continues to pursue him — an entity that he had never seen, or before known — yet appears to be somehow, like him. DREAMSTAR Ghostly Call connects mystery and generational love with real war history, changing a family’s life by the loss of their beloved relative, a patriotic young Army soldier who served in the Vietnam War. Jonathan David Stone was that brave solider, doing his duty, as ordered by his country, when killed in action. This book is meant to hold sacred all the brave American men and women [tragically so many young like this story’s symbolic spirit] who sacrificed and served in a “senseless war” — and looks to God for solace and guidance in healing. In connecting with his grandfather’s spirit and the North Star, David Raymond Stone may just find it’s only the beginning of finding the eternal key to all that should be known, and held forever, sacred.
