false 6234429 1 Appealing to boys and girls alike, this beguiling adventure explores classic fantasy themes from a unique young heroine’s perspective. Nine-year-old Emma loses everything she has in a fearsome storm and finds herself alone in the wilderness of the Dunes—an area desolate since the mysterious disappearance of a resort known as the Grand Wenlocke. Finding a friend in Winston, the ghostly bellboy who wanders the Dunes, Emma learns that it has been more than 100 years since the hotel with an unsavory reputation vanished; but, unbeknownst to either of them, the long slumbering resort has just begun to stir. Allying herself with a motley crew of companions—the ghost bellboy, a kindhearted cook, a pirate with a heart of gold, and the imperious young heir to the Wenlocke fortune—Emma soon learns that things are not always as lost as they seem, especially if you have a brave heart and good friends. 6417091 15 7 2009 The Hotel Under the Sand total:10|5:1|4:4|3:5|2:0|1:0| 10 36 39 9 4 0 false false Sat Oct 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Nov 07 20:10:24 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 07 20:12:13 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Aug 27 19:52:45 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 19:56:44 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Tue Oct 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 29 06:44:32 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 29 06:46:22 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Aug 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 15:48:43 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 15:49:21 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jun 05 09:03:34 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 05 09:03:59 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jun 13 10:53:07 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 13 10:53:29 -0700 2009 3 1 false false Mon Jul 06 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun May 03 08:22:32 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 06 04:33:31 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Tue Nov 03 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Tue Oct 27 19:15:44 -0700 2009 Thu Nov 12 15:54:39 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Thu Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Feb 20 08:24:24 -0800 2009 Thu Oct 01 13:06:32 -0700 2009
