From the author of the bestselling memoir Wild Game comes a riveting novel about Cape Cod, complicated families, and long-buried secrets—for fans of the New York Times bestsellers The Paper Palace and Ask Again, Yes.

Ken and Abby Gardner lost their mother when they were small and they have been haunted by her absence ever since. Their father, Adam, a brilliant oceanographer, raised them mostly on his own in his remote home on Cape Cod, where the attachment between Ken and Abby deepened into something complicated—and as adults their relationship is strained. Now, years later, the siblings’ lives are still deeply entwined. Ken is a successful businessman with political ambitions and a picture-perfect family and Abby is a talented visual artist who depends on her brother’s goodwill, in part because he owns the studio where she lives and works.

As the novel opens, Adam is approaching his seventieth birthday, staring down his mortality and fading relevance. He has always managed his bipolar disorder with medication, but he’s determined to make one last scientific breakthrough and so he has secretly stopped taking his pills, which he knows will infuriate his children. Meanwhile, Abby and Ken are both harboring secrets of their own, and there is a new person on the periphery of the family—Steph, who doesn’t make her connection known. As Adam grows more attuned to the frequencies of the deep sea and less so to the people around him, Ken and Abby each plan the elaborate gifts they will present to their father on his birthday, jostling for primacy in this small family unit.

Set in the fraught summer of 2016, and drawing on the biblical tale of Cain and Abel, Little Monsters is an absorbing, sharply observed family story by a writer who knows Cape Cod inside and out—its Edenic lushness and its snakes.

It is easy to read and understand the English prose. Highly recommended.
Format: Hardcover
I am not conversant with Ancient Greek, but I decided to read this book. The prose is easy to read and understand. It uses the type of English phrasing that we would use in ordinary conversation. I found this difficult book easy to read and I value that. I don't know whether it is better or worse than any other translation of Thucydides, but I enjoyed it. Thucydides emerges as an analytical historian with a strong moral point of view and trenchant criticisms of the Athenians and their leadership. This book continues the modern trend of making classical texts easier to read by using plain English. It is much appreciated.

Reading is KEY to success!!! We love this book and many others similar to it!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
LOVE IT!!! We are readers in my house. Reading is KEY to success!!! I posted some pictures of sample pages. I like to see sample pages before ordering a book. I will go to Google and search. Wish Amazon/the sellers would post sample pages of the books on here to make it eaiser!! My son loves these kid friendly creepy stories.. we have ordered approximately 90 books to read over the summer, several are kid friendly scary stories, they're hard to find, though... We also purchased a bunch of the Geographic kids books to learn about animals, plants, solar system and volcanoes.... I can't wait to dig into them. Reading is key to success and hopefully my two will learn a good bit of info over the summer.

New Favorite!
Format: Paperback
My 1st grader loved this one! We really enjoyed the way the story unfolds to point out that there is really nothing "normal" about anyone. We're all different, but we also have similarities, and everyone can be friends. It's also an encouraging story for anyone who might be moving to a new city and going to a new school.
