| Summary/Abstract |
Tenzing Norgay was the son of poor Tibetan immigrants living in Nepal. He longed to see the world but was told he could aspire to be little more than a servant. While Edmund Hillary was a humble beekeeper from New Zealand, who spent his youth dreaming of adventures he could never hope to experience. And Everest was the ultimate adventure. The mountain's peak was the highest point on Earth, stretching beyond the clouds. So dangerous and challenging, Everest had never been successfully climbed and many had died trying. In 1953, Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary joined a team of explorers determined to reach its top. Alone at the top of the world with their oxygen running low, they faced off against the brutal elements and new dangers at every turn. And they were armed with little more than their courage, their determination and a belief in each other. But would that be enough to achieve the impossible, what no man had done before?

| Summary/Abstract |
This is the life story of Ehrich Weiss. If you don't recognize this man's name, that is because the world came to know him as the one and only Harry Houdini. His ability to get out of seemingly impossible situations, along with his knack of dealing with the public and the press, made him a legend in his own time. Some of his most notable escapes, which still cannot be explained, were the Mirror Handcuff Challenge, the Milk Can Escape, the Chinese Water Torture Cell and the Suspended Straitjacket Escape. How did a poor, uneducated boy rise out of poverty and become the greatest illusionist of the 20th century? The story of Houdini's life is not only entertaining, but also educational. His struggles in life and his determination to succeed are a lesson to all.

| Summary/Abstract |
Mowgli wanders away from his village in India and is raised by a pack of wolves until he returns home and meets his mother, Messua. He knows nothing of human language or customs. His father was killed by a tiger, Shere Kahn. Mowgli learns how to speak and captivates Mahala, Budelo’s daughter, with tales of the jungle and his animal friends. While tracking Shere Kahn down to kill him, he and Mahala discover the remains of a lost civilization. When they return and tell of their find, Budelo wants Mowgli to reveal where the treasure is, but he refuses. Budelo convinces the villagers that Mowgli is an infidel and they sentence him to be burned at the stake, but he escapes into the jungle. A pack of villagers chase him, but all except Budelo die.
