Come fly with Captain Ray Lemmon, United Airlines (retired), as he shares the fascinating story of his life and career as an airline pilot and airplane hobbyist.

His wife Margaret, his partner in life and adventure, is a prominent part of the story. (She had a pilots license, too.) Youll feel as if youre right beside him in the cockpit as he tells stories of cross-country flights in small planes and big onesof the pranks airline pilots playof a terror-filled near-disaster over the Pocono Mountains in Tannersville, Pa.and, after Margarets passing, of a series of surprising events that defy explanation but that lead to unexpected revelation and personal enlightenment. Not Flying Alone is the story of a life and an era, vividly and memorably told.

Flying Solo has everything: life decisions, second chances, intrigue, skulduggery, and a hot librarian! I loved it."-Clare Pooley, New York Times bestselling author of The Authenticity Project Smarting from her recently cancelled wedding and about to turn forty, Laurie Sassalyn returns to her Maine hometown of Calcasset to handle the estate of her great-aunt Dot, a spirited adventurer who lived to be ninety-three. Alongside boxes of Polaroids and pottery, a mysterious wooden duck shows up at the bottom of a cedar chest. Laurie's curiosity is piqued, especially after she finds a love letter to the never-married Dot that ends with the line "And anyway, if you're ever desperate, there are always ducks, darling." When the mysterious duck disappears under suspicious circumstances, Laurie feels compelled to figure out why anyone would steal something worth so little -and why Dot kept it hidden away in the first place. Suddenly Laurie finds herself swept up in a righteous caper that has her negotiating with antiques dealers and con artists, going on after-hours dates at the local library, and reconnecting with her oldest friend and her first love . Desperate to uncover her great-aunt's secrets, Laurie must reckon with her own past and her future-and ultimately embrace her own vision of flying solo.

“What happens when a sixth-grade class is left unsupervised for a whole day?...A story that is by turns sad, poignant, and funny . . . absorbing.” —Booklist (starred review) Mr. Fabiano—aka “Mr. Fab”—is popular with his sixth-grade students, but today a substitute is covering his class. Except the substitute never shows up. Instead of reporting the situation, they decide to prove they can run the class by themselves. With a little ingenuity and some careful planning, they might just succeed. But then a fight breaks out between Bastian and Rachel over a classmate, Tommy Feathers, who died six months earlier. Ever since that terrible day, Rachel hasn’t spoken—she communicates only by writing notes. It’s starting to look like the plan is going to fall apart before the bell rings . . . Inventive and uniquely constructed, Flying Solo follows Mr. Fab’s students hour by hour as they tackle the challenges of an unusual school day—and experience a learning opportunity of another kind. “The rich and complex emotional lives within a classroom of unsupervised students boil toward eruption the day an exceptional teacher is absent. . . . A novel that is funny, real, and often moving.” —Kirkus Reviews
