Book excerpt: “Richly imagined and emotionally resonant, Children of the Flying City is a fantasy for young and old alike. This book gave my heart wings.” –Pierce Brown, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising “Children of the Flying City feels, at once, timeless and wondrously, gloriously new.” –Katie Williams, author of Tell the Machine Goodnight Brought to the flying city of Highgate when he was only five years old, orphan Milo Quick has never known another home. Now almost thirteen, Milo survives one daredevil grift at a time, relying only on his wit, speed, and best friends Jules and Dagda. A massive armada has surrounded Highgate’s crumbling armaments. Because behind locked doors—in opulent parlors and pneumatic forests and a master toymaker’s workshop—the once-great flying city protects a powerful secret, hidden away for centuries. A secret that’s about to ignite a war. One small airship, the Halcyon, has slipped through the ominous blockade on a mission to collect Milo—and the rich bounty on his head—before the fighting begins. But the members of the Halcyon’s misfit crew aren’t the only ones chasing Milo Quick. True friendship is worth any risk in this clever, heart-racing adventure from award-winning author and journalist Jason Sheehan. Sheehan weaves together wry narration and multiple points of view to craft a richly imagined tale that is dangerous and surprising, wondrous and joyful.

One night, up on “tar beach,” the rooftop of her family’s Harlem apartment building, her dreams come true. The stars lift her up, and she flies over the city, claiming the buildings and the city as her own. As Cassie learns, anyone can fly. “All you need is somewhere to go you can’t get to any other way. The next thing you know, you’re flying among the stars.”

Award-winning author Cynthia Levinson reveals the inspiring real-life stories of Black and white American kids and Jewish and Arab kids from Israel as they join forces to learn from each other and create remarkable circus performances. Welcome to the world of social circus—a movement that brings kids from different worlds together to perform amazing acts on a professional level! Watch from your seats as we follow the participants of two specific circuses: Circus Harmony in St. Louis, whose participants are inner-city and suburban Black and white kids, and Circus Galilee in Israel, whose participants are Jewish and Arab. The members may be from different demographics, different races, and different religions, but they work together to learn not how to overcome assumptions, animosity, and obstacles, and also to put their trust in the hands of people who may be very different from themselves. Featuring in-depth one-on-one interviews, extensive research, and engaging storytelling, this inspiring book highlights stories of collaboration, compromise, and overcoming obstacles. Includes informational sidebars and photographs throughout.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children, , the tiny buds that God plants in the garden of life, are little miracles waiting to be discovered. Their minds are enriched with creativity and imagination. When given the right direction and the motivation, they can do wonders, which most of us only dream about of. I believe in the powers which these little buds have inside them. The pinnacles some of these children have achieved at such tender ages are remarkable. With self-motivation, meditation techniques and improving some techniques of the mind, they can unlock their hidden potential. This book is full of stories of such kids who have done amazing things in their young age and left the whole world awestruck. Some of them are already great surgeons, musicians, researchers, sports-persons, excelling in the work they do, leaving a trail of their success behind. These children tend to be great motivators and teach us that there is no age when there is a term equivalent to impossible. This book will make you realise the potential of the human mind. If they can do it at such a young age, why can’t we? It’s all the barriers of our mind that we need to break free of and let our inner creativity take control. For this book, I’d like to thanks all these children who have done wonders. They are our biggest motivators. Apart from them, I would like to thank my mother, Mrs. Vinod Jolly. Without her blessings, this would not have been possible. I’m extremely thankful for co-operation and understanding of my work to my wife Mrs. Pooja Jolly. I’m extremely grateful to my friend, Mr. Santa Singh Sethi who is a Numerologist, and is a gold medalist. My special thanks goes to Ms. Japneet Boyal, thanks to her support for editing and creating content for this book. The major source of content for this book has been taken from YouTube videos and various websites where the interviews of these bright minds had been published. The sole purpose of this book is to let the world know the miracles these children are performing
