It's Mickey's birthday, and he's sure his friends are throwing him a party. There's just one problem...there are no signs of a party. Have Mickey's friends forgotten all about his big day?

Told from four-year-old Laura's point of view, this story begins in 1871 in a little log cabin on the edge of the Big Woods of Wisconsin. Laura lives in the little house with her pa, her ma, her sisters Mary and Carrie, and their trusty dog, Jack. Pioneer life is sometimes hard for the family, since they must grow or catch all their own food as they get ready for the cold winter. But it is also exciting as Laura and her family celebrate Christmas with homemade toys and treats, do the spring planting, bring in the harvest, and make their first trip into town.

In this workshop, time management expert Laura Vanderkam explains about how broadening our perspective on time will help us be more intentional with the hours we have, and shares the simple, practical steps your team can take to start making time work for them.

Ana da Silva always assumed she’d die young, she just never expected it to be at the hands of Famine, the haunting immortal who once spared her life so many years ago. But if the horseman remembers her at all, he must not care, for when she comes face to face with him for the second time in her life, she’s stabbed and left for dead. Only, she doesn’t quite die.

Emilia Taylor hates me, which is absolutely fine by me, because I don’t particularly care much for her either. Maybe I took things too far, but I decided she was the enemy a long time ago, and she gave me no reason to think differently. At least not until recently. And when she sets her mind to prove me wrong, she goes all in.

When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death.

Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her, and hers towards him.
