AGENT CODY BANKS (Special Edition DVD) [2003]
directed by Harald Zwart. Condition: NEW (still shrink-wrapped) Warner DVD. Special Edition. Content: This is a wish-fulfillment adventure for James Bond wannabes who are still too young to shave. Just in time for puberty's curtain call, Malcolm in the Middle's Frankie Muniz stars in the title role as a 15-year-old recruit to the CIA's youth-agent program, who gets what millions of men desire: a face full of Angie Harmon's cleavage. (It's just for laughs; the sexy Law & Order alumnus plays Cody's CIA handler, but you've got to admit this Bond Girl with a boy thing is a bit perverse.) Otherwise, the movie's a low-rent Bond clone from the director of One Night at McCool's, with a pair of twisted villains (Ian McShane, Arnold Vosloo) threatening to unleash stolen "Nanobot" technology that can ruin everyone's day. It's barely fun enough to be worthwhile, but the best gag (at 007's expense) is buried in the soundtrack, when a CIA receptionist announces, "Will the owner of a silver Aston Martin please report to security... you are parked in a handicapped zone." So much for respecting your elders! [1copy available]

BEAUTY: A Retelling of the Story of Beauty & The Beast
by Robin McKinley. Michael Deas cover art. Condition: UNREAD 1993 HarperTrophy Trade Paperback, first printing. Light edge wear with tanning to page edges. Content: This much-loved retelling of the classic French tale Beauty and the Beast elicits the familiar magical charm, but is more believable and complex than the traditional story. In this version, Beauty is not as beautiful as her older sisters, who are both lovely and kind. Here, in fact, Beauty has no confidence in her appearance but takes pride in her own intelligence, her love of learning and books, and her talent in riding. She is the most competent of the three sisters, which proves essential when they are forced to retire to the country because of their father's financial ruin. The plot follows that of the renowned legend: Beauty selflessly agrees to inhabit the Beast's castle to spare her father's life. Beauty's gradual acceptance of the Beast and the couple's deepening trust and affection are amplified in novel form. Robin McKinley's writing has the flavor of another century, and Beauty heightens the authenticity as a reliable and competent narrator. [1 copy available]

While returning from a trip to India, Alec's ship is wrecked in a storm, leaving he and the Black as the only survivors, washed up on a small, deserted island. For nineteen days they must survive in that desolate place, and in this time a strong bond is formed between the boy and the wild Arab horse. Once Alec and the Black are rescued by a passing ship, the story takes a different turn. Back in New York, Alec asks a neighbor if he might stable the Black in the old barn on his property. As it turns out, Henry Dailey is a former racehorse trainer, and he immediately recognizes the Black's potential for speed. Thus, man and boy pair up in order to train the spirited horse, hoping to harness his energy and turn him into a competitive runner. The 1979 movie was directed by Carroll Ballard and starred Mickey Rooney, Terry Reno, Teri Garr, Hoyt Axton and Michael Higgins. There was also a TV series in the 60s also starring Mickey Rooney.

They visit a hatchery, a blacksmith in Volcaneum, and a city built on waterfalls. The boy is most impressed by the Skybax Riders, people who are trained to fly on winged reptiles. Deciding to join them, he goes through their rigorous training program. In the meantime, his father finds a route to the dinosaur underground, a mythic place referred to in old dinosaur tales. He returns to find his son has ``earned his wings,'' but his discoveries are saved for (one assumes) another book. Younger readers, too, will be enticed by the dramatic, full-color illustrations, which include both panoramic sweeps of the utopian cities and detailed sketches of Dinotopian contraptions. While the women are more active than their Victorian counterparts, the adventurers here are still Will and Dad. There was a TV mini-series made of Dinotopia in 2002 (?) directed by Marco Brambilla and starring David Thewlis, Tyron Leitso, Wentworth Miller, Katie Carr, and Jim Carter. [1copy available]

FERNGULLY, THE LAST RAINFOREST (Follow Along DVD)
by 20th Century Fox. Packaged with a handle for easy "toting" for kids. Condition: NEW (shrink-wrapped) 20th Century Fox DVD with handle. Kids captioning in English & Spanish. Content: This edition of the movie encourages reading - the captioning (optional) is colorful and highlights "new" words. Environmentally friendly animated film with a strong message that doesn't club anyone over the head--but it certainly can't be missed.

He's shrunken to wee size, however, when Crysta (Samantha Mathis), a fairy of the forest, not only finds him cute but wants him to see the results of his handiwork. They end up battling Hexxus, an evil force imprisoned in a tree, which now wants to destroy all of Ferngully. Robin Williams offers genuine comic relief as a bat named Batty Koda. Agreeable without making much impact, it's a piffle of a film for one that deals with such strong subject matter. The 1992 movie was directed by Bill Kroyer and starred the voices of Tim Curry, Samantha Mathis, Robin Williams, Christian Slater, Robert Pastorelli, Cheech & Chong, and Kathleen Freeman. Fun with a message. [1 copy available]

THE FOURTH WISE MAN
based on the story by Henry Van Dyke. Retold by Susan Summers. Beautiful color illustrations by Jackie Morris. Condition: Gently pre-read, IF at all, Dial Books hardcover (pictorial boards - no DJ), second printing. Bookstore "misplaced" blank book plate loose end page. Decorated end pages. Content: In a short story written in the 1800s, Henry Van Dyke imagined what it would have been like had there been a fourth wise man, one who did not complete the journey to see the baby Jesus in Bethlehem. Summers' retelling, based on Van Dyke's story, introduces Artaban, a Zoroastrian man living in Persia. Artaban sets off to meet his three friends Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar, but he stops along the way to assist a dying man, rescue a child in Herod's Massacre of the Innocents, and save a woman about to be sold into slavery. Artaban misses his chance to worship Jesus, but at the end of his life, he is rewarded for helping the needy: "As often as you did these things for the least of my children, you did them for me." The touching story flows smoothly and eloquently, and the richly colored illustrations capture the book's emotional intensity with careful attention to the setting's place and time. Perfect companion for the made-for-TV family movie of the same name directed by Michael Ray Rhodes and starring Martin Sheen, Alan Arkin (hilarious!), James Farentino, Eileen Brennan, Harold Gould, and Charlie Sheen.

Problem: Light shelf wear to bottom boards with some sort of tag-removal mark bottom loose end page (now covered with a blank bookplate). Tiny indentions front DJ panel. Content: Hachi, an Akita pup, reveres his master and likes nothing more than accompanying Japanese professor Eizaburo Ueno to his morning train and then meeting him in the afternoon. One day the professor dies while at work, yet the faithful Hachi awaits his return at the station every day until his own death some 10 years later. Newman's fictionalized account of this true story adds a young boy, Yasuo, who befriends the dog and the professor and later cares for Hachi during his steadfast vigil at the Shibuya, Japan, train station. Yasuo brings a childhood focus to the poignant story and keeps it from becoming overly depressing, and Kodaira's soft, black-and-white sketches help to break up the chapters for younger readers and add interest to the story. Grades 3 - 5. The story has been Americanized in the 2009 movie Hachi: A Dog's Tale directed by Lasse Hallström and starring Richard Gere, Joan Allen, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, and Jason Alexander.

HARRIET THE SPY (The world's most famous sixth-grade spy)
by Louise Fitzhugh. B&W illustrations by the Author. Condition: UNREAD, but not perfect, 1990 HarperTrophy Trade Paperback, first printing. Pale near-crease front cover with light edge wear. Content: Thirty-two years before it was made into a movie, Harriet the Spy was a groundbreaking book: its unflinchingly honest portrayal of childhood problems and emotions changed children's literature forever. Happily, it has neither dated nor become obsolete and remains one of the best children's novels ever written. The fascinating story is about an intensely curious and intelligent girl, who literally spies on people and writes about them in her secret notebook, trying to make sense of life's absurdities. When her classmates find her notebook and read her painfully blunt comments about them, Harriet finds herself a lonely outcast. Fitzhugh's writing is astonishingly vivid, real and engaging, and Harriet, by no means a typical, loveable heroine, is one of literature's most unforgettable characters. Ages 8 - 12. The 1996 movie was directed by Bronwen Hughes and starred Michelle Trachtenberg, Gregory Smith, Rosie O'Donnell, Eartha Kitt, and Robert Joy. [1 copy available]

HAROLD AND THE PURPLE CRAYON (DVD - Complete Series - 2 Disc Set)
by Sony Pictures. Condition: NEW (shink-wrapped) 2004 release of the 2002 Emmy-winning animated TV series. 13 episodes. Content: A purple crayon and abundant creativity lead a toddler named Harold along a path of imagination and discovery that winds through the contemplation of big questions like "where does the rain come from?" while exploring intense feelings like frustration and loneliness. While this Emmy award-winning HBO Family series is based on the concepts and drawings of Crockett Johnson's books, it is not an exacting, faithful re-creation of those books like the Scholastic Video Collection version. Instead, this series embraces Johnson's overarching theme, that children use creativity and imagination to make sense of their feelings and the world around them, and uses that concept as a starting point for a colorfully animated, musically rich series featuring a curious toddler's imaginary nighttime journeys. In each of the thirteen 20-minute episodes, Sharon Stone narrates as a sleepy Harold contemplates something like the sound of the wind or his own loneliness, grabs his purple crayon, and draws a picture that leads him on a journey of discovery. Along the way, Harold gains a whole new perspective on his place in the world and learns some very important lessons about friendship, feelings, and self-worth. This two-DVD set also includes a 16-page activity booklet. Perfect companion to book. Features the voices of Sharon Stone (Narrator) and Connor Matheus (Harold). (Ages 2 to 7) [1 copy available]

A LITTLE PRINCESS
by Frances Hodgson Burnett. Adapted and illustrated by Barbara McClintock. Wonderful turn-of-the-century-type color illustrations. Condition: NEW 2000 H arperCollins hardcover (gilt designs on green boards) and DJ (in mylar jacket), first printing. Content: Not just abridged but retold, this colorfully illustrated, large-format book has a text that's longer than most picture books but considerably shorter than Burnett's beloved novel. McClintock's sensitive illustrations, apparently ink drawings with watercolor washes, will certainly appeal to readers and book buyers of all ages. The period settings and costumes have a charm all their own, and the detailed pictures clearly portray Sara's transformation from privileged child to pauper and back again. Some scenes and dialogue here did not appear in the original book, but they serve to move the plot along more swiftly. The story loses a great deal of subtlety in theme and character development (as well as plot and setting) in its adaptation to picture-book format. Those who love the original will advise children to wait until they're old enough to read it. But children or parents who want a picture-book version will find this a very pretty one. (Ages 4 to 8) The most recent movie version is the 1995 versions directed by Alfonso Cuarón and starring Liesel Matthews, Eleanor Bron, Liam Cunningham, and Rusty Schwimmer. Questions welcome.

MACK MADE MOVIES (Mack Stennett)
by Don Brown. Wonderful color illustrations of early Hollywood by the Author. Condition: NEW 2005 Roaring Brook soft cover, first pritning. Tiny shelf wear. Content: The creator of Uncommon Traveler: Mary Kingsley in Africa (Houghton, 2000) brings young readers a new treat-a picture-book biography of the moviemaker who made the Keystone Kops, Fatty Arbuckle, and Charlie Chaplin household names. Brown begins Mack's story on the burlesque stage, with his subject in costume. "In 1900, twenty-year-old Mack Sennett was a horse's rear end." Despite a disappointing career, Mack continued trying various slapstick routines to little avail or acclaim. In 1909, he landed a job with a movie company, and eventually persuaded a couple of others to help him produce slapstick comedies. The result was Keystone Pictures. Brown illustrates the various gags Mack first brought to audiences, from slipping on banana peels to throwing a pie into someone's face. The cartoon pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations are done in subdued tones that give the book the feel of an old movie. The spreads are full of energy, moving across the page or spotlighting a specific gag. Occasionally, word bubbles are added to the drawings as Mack adds his own comments to the narrative. Brown gives readers just enough detail without making his story too long, supplementing the text with biographical comments and a bibliography in his author's note. For an added bonus, a small dog drawn in the right bottom corner of each spread dances when readers flip the pages. This is a thoroughly enjoyable and accessible introduction to the life of the "King of Comedy" and to the history of early moviemaking in America. [1 copy available]

MARY, QUEEN OF FRANCE (Historical Fiction)
by Jean Plaidy. Condition: UNREAD, but not perfect, 2003 Three Rivers Trade Paperback, 4th printing. Problem: pale (very pale) dark spot back cover which blends in with the color of the cover. Content: Legendary historical novelist Jean Plaidy brings to life the story of Princess Mary Tudor, a celebrated beauty and born rebel who would defy the most powerful king in Europe—her older brother. Princess Mary Rose is the youngest sister of Henry VIII, and one of the few people whom he adores unconditionally. Known throughout Europe for her charm and good looks, Mary is the golden child of the Tudor family and is granted her every wish. Except when it comes to marriage. Henry VIII, locked in a political showdown with France, decides to offer up his pampered baby sister to secure peace between the two mighty kingdoms. Innocent, teenage Mary must become the wife of the elderly King Louis, a toothless, ailing man in his sixties. Horrified and furious, Mary has no choice but to sail for France. There she hones her political skills, bides her time, and remains secretly in love with Charles Brandon, the Duke of Suffolk. When King Louis dies, after only two years of marriage, Mary is determined not to be sold into another unhappy union. She must act quickly; if she wants to be with the man she truly loves, she must defy the laws of church and state by marrying without her brother’s permission. Together, Mary and Charles devise a scheme to outwit the most ruthless king in Europe and gain their hearts’ desire, not knowing if it will lead to marital bliss or certain death. This novel details, but is not the source, of Disney's great little 1953 movie about the Tudor-Brandon affair - directed by Ken Annakin and starring the fabulous Glynnis Johns, Richard Todd, and James Robertson Justice. A lovely movie for Young Adults+. [1 copy available]

MR. AND MRS. BO JO JONES
by Ann Head. Condition: UNREAD, but not perfect, 1971 Scholastic paperback, special printing. Light taning to some of the white cover edges and a name top front cover edge. Content: Reviewer: "This is a poignant read about a time gone by. July and Bo Jo are typical teenagers in the 60's when one night together changes their life plans. The story tells how July, Bo Jo and their families deal with an unplanned pregnancy. July tells her story "for whatever it may be worth to some young couple on the brink of the same". July and Bo Jo don't really know each other that well, but they choose to do the "right thing". I first read this book in junior high and that was long ago enough for me, that the word "pregnant" was often whispered in polite company when you were talking about an unmarried woman. Ann Head's book really took me back. As a young teenager reading it the first time, I remember being a little lost because Head wrote so much between the lines. July becomes pregnant in the beginning of the story, but words such as "pregnant", "baby", and "make love" are not memtioned until you are well into the story. I don't think the word sex is ever used. When I began rereading the book, my first thought was "how dated!" But now I realize that Head accurately captured the culture and attitudes of the middle to upper middle class, small southern town, country club society. Like many stories it was contemporary when it was written, now it's a classic which reflects a time gone by. Head's characters are clean and crisp. Even though Head uses the voice of July to tell the story as a warning to other young couples, through the dialogue she manages to convey the feelings of disappointment and turmoil that all of the characters experience, including July's siblings. Even though today our attitude about teenage pregnancy appears much more relaxed, the feelings that Head writes about are still relevant." [Every pre-teen and teen girl should read this book!] The 1971 made-for-TV movie was directed by Robert Day and starred Desi Arnaz, Jr., Christopher Norris, Dan Dailey, Dina Merrill, Tom Bosley, Jessie Royce Landis, Lynn Carlin, and Susan Strasberg.

MY DOG SKIP (Movie Edition)
by Willie Morris. Frankie Muniz and Skip movie still cover art. Condition: NEW 1996 Vintage Books softcover, no printing given. Light tanning to white cover edges. Content: This book is for anyone - male or female - who was ever owned by a dog and will never forget it. This is a true story. In 1943, nine-year-old Morris first met Skip, an English smooth-haired fox terrier puppy who immediately went to sleep in his arms. From that magical moment of connection ("I was an only child, and he now was an only dog") until Morris left home to go to college, boy and dog were inseparable companions. In this sweetly sentimental memoir, the author recalls growing up with Skip in the small, sleepy town of Yazoo, Mississippi. Unlike the other dogs Morris's family had owned, Skip was special. He could play football, running the "Statue of Liberty" play, much to the amazement of spectators ("Look at that dog playin' football!"). With a little assistance from Morris, Skip could drive a car ("Look at that ol' dog drivin' a car!"). He could run the 100-yard dash in 7.8 seconds, a world record for fox terriers. For anyone who has ever loved a dog, Morris's loving tribute will be a delightful read. [1 copy available]
