Tyndale Kids (April 18, 2011)

TJ and the Time Stumblers
TJ Finkelstein is your average seventh grader trying to survive junior high. Average except for moving from the Midwest to crazy, money-is-no-object Malibu; becoming mortal enemies with the school’s most popular girl; and, oh yeah, and being followed around by two goofball boys from the 23rd century!!! That’s right—Herby and Tuna have traveled back in time to study TJ for a class project. Unfortunately, she is the only one who can see them. And unfortunatelier, their “help” only leads to more mayhem and plenty of side-splitting laughter.

The Dragon Forest
No one has entered the mysterious forest and lived. Ten-year-old Peter might be the Prince of the Kingdom of Illiath, but he feels pretty useless. His father is too busy running the kingdom to have time for his son, and his mother is dead. Now the forces of the evil Lord Caragon threaten war, and only one weapon can save the kingdom: the powerful scales of a dragon. Illiath lies at the edge of a mysterious forest ruled by a fierce Dragon the King has sworn to protect. But what if Peter can best the dragon and bring back the scales?

Martin Boyle already has plenty to worry about. Which is why Martin really doesn’t need this curse hanging over his head.

Martin must find a way to break the curse, but every clue seems to lead to a dead end. And time is running out.
