It's cider season and things are busy at Sweet Apple Acres! Unfortunately, Granny has broken her hip and Pinkie Pie is called in to look after the cantankerous elder! Will Pinkie's optimism triumph over Granny's stubbornness?

This book provides a psychological analysis of the famous "forever 27' club, a group of musicians who all died way before their time.

In honor of my older brother, I write this to express how precious life is. Unfortunately, at twenty-seven years young, a beautiful person was taken away from this thing called life way too soon. This book is about understanding that being an addict doesn't mean "you're a bad person." My brother was beyond amazing, intelligent, and such a great big brother to me. Sadly, demons took over his body, and they became too big to fight off. I hope reading this book about my brother's life helps people realize that nobody wakes up and says they want to be an addict. It isn't a choice like others think it is. Maybe the very first time you ever try a drug, but what happens to someone after trying drugs is unbearable and a nightmare that they have to face every day that becomes one giant black demon inside of themselves. I want people to understand that addiction is a mental illness, and it's not what anyone thinks. But, people still judge an addict so quickly. You cannot just simply turn off being an addict, and it's just not as easy as people make it out to be. It has nothing to do about how you grew up, where you live, or what you do for a living. Addiction is the worst thing to watch someone struggle with, and now I have to face a nightmare every day, waking up knowing that my big brother is no longer here. I know that poison cannot reach my brother in heaven anymore, I know he is now safe and free, and I pray he is living the life he always deserved. No one can ever hurt my brother again. I gained faith to write about my brother's life and his story to help maybe someone else struggling as well because mental illness is not talked about nor supported enough, and if you or someone you love have never suffered from drug addiction, consider yourself very thankful.Forever 27, To the Best Big Brother Ever.

This fascinating book uncovers the history behind urban legends and explains how the contemporary iterations of familiar fictional tales provide a window into the modern concerns—and digital advancements—of our society. What do ghost hunting, legend tripping, and legendary monsters have in common with email hoaxes, chain letters, and horror movies? In this follow-up to Libraries Unlimited's Tales, Rumors, and Gossip: Exploring Contemporary Folk Literature in Grades 7–12, author Gail de Vos revisits popular urban legends, and examines the impact of media—online, social, and broadcast—on their current iterations. What Happens Next? Contemporary Urban Legends and Popular Culture traces the evolution of contemporary legends from the tradition of oral storytelling to the sharing of stories on the Internet and TV. The author examines if the popularity of contemporary legends in the media has changed the form, role, and integrity of familiar legends. In addition to revisiting some of the legends highlighted in her first book, de Vos shares new tales in circulation which she sees as a direct result of technological advancements.
