Lewis Carroll’s timeless tale of imagination and adventure gets a refreshed look for the next generation in this stunning middle grade novel. When Alice follows a rabbit down its rabbit hole, she enters a fantastical new world full of strange and nonsensical creatures. There Alice stumbles from one predicament to the next— drinking potions that make her shrink and grow, inviting herself to a tea party with the Mad Hatter, speaking to a disappearing Cheshire Cat, and playing croquet with a Queen of Hearts who is a little too eager to behead her opponents—as life in Wonderland gets curiouser and curiouser.

A wealthy man and his valet race against time to circumnavigate the world in eighty days in one of Jules Verne’s best known tales—now with an arresting new look! Phileas Fogg has always been a quiet, orderly, and predicable English gentleman who reads the newspaper, visits the Reform Club, and dines at exactly the same time each day. But this routine is abandoned when he wagers his fortune in an outlandish bet that he can travel around the entire world in eighty days. Fogg sets off immediately to prove his point, accompanied by his new valet, Passepartout, whose job is turning out to be quite different from the tranquil position he expected. As the pair travels by boat, train, carriage, and elephant from one country to the next, Fogg’s meticulous planning maps out their route. But not even he can anticipate every delay and danger along the way. And unbeknownst to him, the trip is being shadowed by Detective Fix, who is convinced Fogg is a bank robber running from justice. With the clock counting down, the only thing that’s certain is that this trip will end in either glory or ruin.

"We that are true lovers run into strange capers..." Banished from Duke Senior's court, young Rosalind flees to the Forest of Arden along with Duke Senior's daughter, her cousin Celia. Disguised as the handsome Ganymede and simple shepherdess Aliena, the two hide from her cruel uncle and hope for a new life. Nearby, the dashing Orlando is also seeking shelter in the forest, far from his malicious brother Oliver and the feud that began with a wrestling match but has escalated into a plot against his life. Heartbroken at being away from his beloved Rosalind, he encounters 'Ganymede', who promises to cure Orlando with love lessons. Meanwhile, local shepherdess Phoebe also has her eye on Ganymede, despite the advances of smitten shepherd Silvius. As the hopes and dreams of the group entangle with one another, can everyone get what they truly want? As You Like It is Shakespeare's brilliant gender swapping, fake dating, classic comedy of errors in which four young lovers seek refuge and redemption in the Forest of Arden. STAGED is a beautifully designed, six-part collection of Shakespeare's most beloved works and the archetypes that they popularised, celebrating the genius of the Bard and the tropes that remain present in best-selling YA titles to this day.
