Heads have been seen rolling down suburban streets without their bodies. Please do NOT purchase this book if you do not want people to see you chasing your own head. It will be embarrassing. However, if you don’t mind being completely grossed out one minute and laughing your head off the next, please read on ...Praise for Four Small Stones“I would read ANYTHING this man wrote.” That’s what Mr La Rue said. Plus he didn’t just read Four Small Stones, he had a little nap and then read all the way through to book 8, Final Straw! Pretty impressive.Other 5 out of 5 star reviews for the Urban Hunters series ...“Mad writing skills you’ve got.” Jessica B, Publisher, BooksATrueStory“From the first page to last, you'll be hooked. This story is probably one of the best new young adult books out there. It's a great start to a great series!”JB Cacdac, Singapore Review of BooksOverview of Four Small Stones ...Billy’s gotta find some girls. The problem is he’s an Aborigine from the Australian bush and all he’s got to wear is a loincloth. Not a good look in the city. And what’s worse, he’s never even seen a girl before. Could life get anymore difficult? Why yes it could. Billy could fall in love ...But first he has to survive two devious older brothers and a couple of initiations to prove his manhood. Great.More praise ...“Taaffe's series is a wonderful action series for boys and girls who don't mind a little grit in their stories.” Tammy and Alex Dewhurst, Canada“I have just finished reading the first three in this series and they were the funniest books I have ever read in my entire life! By the time I had finished Four Small Stones I had tears rolling down my cheeks I was laughing so hard. I couldn't wait to read Tribal Scarring and Walkabout and they were both just as good if not better. Can't wait for number 4.” Wendy and Andres, UK“While written for a younger age bracket, adult humour has been included. However it has been written in such a way that what seems like a funny incident to a younger audience, holds an underlying meaning for the adults. I highly recommend this series to everybody who is interested in reading a beautifully written story.” Pinky Pollock, Australian Book ReviewURBAN HUNTERS is laugh-out-loud, gut-churning, heart-wrenching storytelling at its best. Unlike anything you’ve ever read, in typical Taaffe fashion. Hilarious as usual. Always surprising.

Sherpa's Adventure: Saving the Future
Lori Costew
2013 Silver Medal Award Winner with Readers Favorite! The year is 2310. It's been a strange Sweet Sixteen for Sherpa. First Lillian, her mother and Ruler of the Western World, was able to slip a surprise birthday party past her. Then Lillian revealed a secret government laboratory Sherpa's never even heard of, one that is working on a time travel gadget she has also never heard of. Now to top it off, she is given this gadget called a Reality Tracking Device (RTD) for use in travelling back and forth in time. Why? Well, the secrets are only just beginning to reveal themselves...and the next one is a doozy. Turns out that rather than being appointed Chancellor of Positivity, Sherpa's greatest dream, she is instead tasked with saving the earth's future from General Aveel, the evil dictator bent on destroying the world peace. Saving the world is not easy, so she practices by traveling on "hops" to help famous people such as Amelia Earhart, Gustave Eiffel, and Neil Armstrong- when they were kids- avoid making mistakes which would change the course of history. Sherpa gradually uncovers the RTD's power... and finds herself growing up in the process. When a hop lands her in the year 2013, she joins forces with Emma and Jose and the adventures really begin. Journeying down the Road of Life, barely escaping from transfiguring Hubots, and saving Pineville Middle School from negativity and bullying gives them the practice they need to stop General Aveel's heinous plot before it's too late--and hopefully before the inventor of the RTD, the brilliant -and gorgeous- Dr. Troy Lichtenstein has a girlfriend! A highly entertaining and thrilling look at a potential future for humankind, Lori Costew's debut is a hilarious and insightful adventure filled with thought provoking insight, one that shows how damaging bullying and negativity are and how they keep us all from realizing our true potential. Today's kids are tomorrow's leaders; they are highly connected and have an idealistic spirit. Sherpa's Adventure: Saving the Future demonstrates the importance of being part of something bigger than yourself. Come ride the wave with Sherpa! Reviews: "This is a thrilling, insightful, and hilarious look into the future. Every page draws you more and more into Sherpa's adventure and the world of 2310. A book for all adventure lovers and space travelers of the future."--Lara Robinson, actress, The Knowing "...delightfully well-written novel. The dialogue is appealing, the plotline flows nicely to the story's conclusion, and readers of all ages will appreciate the message that good decisions make for good lives."--Rated 5 Stars: Readers Favorite
