Georgette Heyer, bestselling Queen of Regency Romance, invites readers to an extraordinary Gothic tale of love, mystery, and intrigue.A surprising invitationKate Malvern is rescued from penury by her aunt Minerva, who brings her to stay at Staplewood. But the household is strange and strained--Kate's uncle lives in his own private wing, and her handsome, moody cousin Torquil lives in another.A dark family secretAs bizarre events unfold and Kate begins to question the reasons for her aunt's unexpected generosity, she has no one to confide in but her cousin Philip. Sympathetic though he may appear, will he tell her what she most needs to know... before it's too late?Praise for Cousin Kate: "Miss Heyer serves up a very different sort of tale in the same period setting, nothing less than a full-fledged Gothic. And a very expert job she does of it, too, complete with a remote and forbidding country house, screams in the night, dark hints of something best left unmentioned... nicely leavened with wit, romance, and wonderful period slang."--Publishers Weekly

Snowshoe Kate and the Hospital Built for Pennies

Snowshoe Kate and the Hospital Built for Pennies

Margi Preus

ABRAMS

Newbery Honor–winner Margi Preus and illustrator Jaime Zollars shed light on a trailblazing doctor known as the “Angel on Snowshoes” in this picture book biography Dr. Kate Pelham Newcomb (or “Dr. Kate,” as she was known to her patients) was a doctor in rural northern Wisconsin during the early 1900s, a time when very few women practiced medicine. Because the nearest hospital was over two hours away and the snowy roads were often impassable, Dr. Kate frequently traveled many miles by snowmobile or snowplow in order to reach her patients, which lead to her nickname, the “Angel on Snowshoes.” In her years as a doctor, she delivered an astonishing 4,000 babies, and those same children later played a key role in the “Million Penny Parade,” a massive grassroots fundraiser inspired by Dr. Kate’s lifelong efforts to build a hospital in her community. Dr. Kate’s dreams of being able to better serve her community finally came to fruition in 1954 when Lakeland Memorial Hospital opened—with Dr. Kate serving as chief of staff. From Newbery Honor–winning author Margi Preus and illustrator Jaime Zollars, this picture book biography celebrates a woman who defied gender expectations and dedicated her life to helping the farthest reaches of her community. Includes author’s note, illustrator’s note, and bibliography.
