🛒 A Cloud Called Bhura
Age Range: 8+
Amni wakes up one morning to find the sky taken over by a huge brown cloud. Even as she and her friends start to discover more, their city of Mumbai starts reeling from the changes the cloud brings to the weather. Bhura Cloudus (as the media calls it) causes scalding rain to fall, makes birds flee the city, and suffocates every living thing. As chaos continues to build and the climate changes brought by Bhura become disastrous, there are several questions on everyone’s mind: What will the powerful politician, Mota Bhai, do now? Can the scientist twins Vidisha and Bidisha find a solution? What about superstar Pavan Kumar and the amazing cloud-sucking machine? Will Bhura ever be driven away—or is it already too late? Thought-provoking, funny, and inspiring, A Cloud Called Bhura is about changing global climate and the havoc it can cause—as well as the forces of friendship, trust, and community that give hope and help counter this deadly threat to humanity.

🛒 The Bonkers! Pack
Age Range: 8+
This Bonkers! pack includes all three audiobooks in Patrick Carman’s Bonkers series, a quirky, creepy, and hilarious adventure that’s perfect for fans of Lemony Snicket and Goosebumps. In the town of Nevermind, strange is just part of everyday life, and Barker Mifflin, the town’s eleven-year-old survivalist, is always ready for catastrophe. In The Terror in Jenny’s Armpit (Book 1), Barker and his friends, Jenny Kim and Fen Stenson, face an increasingly bizarre mystery when something strange grows in Jenny’s armpit—so big she needs a wheelbarrow to carry it! Their journey leads them to abandoned labs, the discovery of Snerbs, and a secret that might just eat the entire planet. In Attack of the Forty-Foot Chicken (Book 2), school’s out, but things are anything but calm. Barker’s summer job at McFadden Farm quickly turns chaotic as he encounters Supreme Commander McJerry, his secretive sister Megan, and a barn hiding something terrifying. As Barker pieces together a forty-foot-tall mystery, he faces challenges even his meticulous prepping couldn’t prepare him for. The chaos continues in Escape from the Dungeons of Snerbville (Book 3), where Barker literally falls into trouble—riding a forty-foot chicken straight into the depths of Snerbville. With help from Tilda Huxley, a Barbie-sized ally created by a scientific mishap, Barker uncovers long-hidden secrets about Colossal Chemistry while evading ferocious creatures and a shrinking fate of his own. Packed with laugh-out-loud moments, eerie twists, and unforgettable characters, this collection brings the wonderfully weird world of Nevermind to life in three exciting audiobooks. Perfect for listeners who love quirky adventures and hilarity in equal measure!
🛒 The Giants of Science Pack
Age Range: 8+
Discover the lives and groundbreaking achievements of three scientific giants in this captivating Giants of Science collection, each card vividly exploring their unique contributions to the world. Albert Einstein, known for his iconic wild hair and sharp wit, revolutionized our understanding of the universe through his imaginative 'thought experiments' and groundbreaking theories that overturned Newtonian physics. This card explores his journey from a curious young thinker to one of the most celebrated scientists in history, set against the backdrop of the turbulent 20th century. Leonardo da Vinci, the quintessential Renaissance genius, used observation and experimentation to push the boundaries of art and science. His notebooks are packed with visionary ideas that bridged the medieval and modern worlds, and this card reveals how his insatiable curiosity and innovative thinking forever changed the way we approach scientific discovery. Marie Curie, a trailblazing physicist and chemist, defied societal limitations to unlock the mysteries of radioactivity. Her incredible achievements in atomic physics, her partnership with her husband, and her struggle to balance work and family make her story one of resilience and brilliance. This card highlights both her scientific breakthroughs and the lasting legacy of her work in shaping the modern world. Together, this pack of three provides an inspiring look at the lives of three extraordinary individuals whose curiosity, innovation, and determination continue to influence the way we see and understand the world.
