This madcap comedy-adventure series is completely hectic – and also heart-warming, ridiculously funny and wildly addictive! One day, Joshie is eating breakfast when a fancy robot thingy arrives in a box. The cool thing? It's actually an incredibly sophisticated droid. The not-so-cool thing? It's programmed to babysit Joshie while his mum is at work (which is ALL THE TIME). Joshie has scared off a LOT of babysitters, but that's only because he DOESN'T NEED A BABYSITTER. And he has big plans to get rid of this one too. But he's not counting on Droid Dude being kinda fun – or all the whole new level of sticky, icky messes you can get into when your babysitter has an off switch! An irrepressible and assured debut from hot new talent Joshie Lefers. Views: 11

Andrew is fifteen years old. He's been sent to stay with his grandmother for the summer while his parents finish their divorce, but the summer's up and he's still stuck up in Wisconsin. And his best and only friend is a monster.
Shadow lives under a gazebo in the park. She has a body made of spare parts, she seems to be omnipotent, and she likes to play chess. Andrew doesn't tell anybody about Shadow. Nobody listens to him anyway.
Andrew's Uncle Paul comes to town. Andrew didn't know he had an Uncle Paul. Paul knows about Shadow. Paul knows lots of things. Some of them are things he shouldn't know; some of them are things no one should know. And he's interested in teaching.
Unfortunately, Paul isn't stopping by just to say hello. He's being pursued, by people interested in his secrets. People interested in Shadow. And soon, people interested in Andrew.
"If you’re into urban paranormal/magic realism stories a la Dresden Files, but with a stronger human touch, I wholeheartedly recommend you pick up White Rabbit Society by Brendan Detzner."
