Dust jacket price $6.95 is unclipped. Blue endpapers. Michel Legrand and noted poet and children's author George Mendoza have collaborated on this charming story about one of Legrand's most memorable boyhood friends. Young Michel, a student of music at the Paris Conservatory, rescues a tiny bird from a storm and decides to give him a home. But it soon becomes apparent to Madame Footy, Michel's ill tempered housekeeper, that he is devoting more time to that filthy creature than to his composition for the conservatory. Indeed, looking after the mischievous bird, One-Note, is no small task. When he is not provoking Robespierre, their lazy dog, One-Note is teasing Madame Footy's spoiled cats, Jacques and Claude. But Michel is finally rewarded for his kindness and concern: it is OneNote's unusual staccato song that inspires Michel's composition, the beautiful Fantasia.

What happens to the people when a factory closes up and moves away? What happens to the community? What happens to the families of the men who lose their jobs? How does it affect you? Consider Henry Burns, fork-lift operator at Baker Company for twenty-five years, looking forward to retirement. One day the paralyzing news breaks: Baker Plant is being closed down. Now he is not only faced with the frustrating need to find new employment in late middle age, but he will lose his pension by a margin of months. Otto Mueller, a salaried employee in a responsible position, expected better treatment. After devoting thirty-three and a half years to Baker Company, he was not permitted to work a crucial three months longer, even without pay, at another branch. He, too, lost his pension. An extension of only three weeks would have saved him four thousand dollars in taxes. This was denied him also. Every year thousands of workers have their jobs and their futures plucked from them by dispassionate corporate decisions to relocate. The effects on employees, particularly the middle-aged, is devastating. This book is an indictment of society's indifference to the influence of social and economic anxieties on the mental and physical health of its members. Fully 50% of the men included in the Baker Company study were beset by ulcers, arthritis, hypertension requiring hospitalization, alcoholism, depression requiring medical help precipitated by the Baker closing. Of Baker's seven salesmen, three died during closing. This book is a cogent sociological study. It is also a skillful, compassionate narrative more readable than many novels.

Impossible Crime, Locked Room Murders by Robert Adey, #1242. Children's book author Lyon Wentworth and his wife, Bea, investigate a murder from the vantage of a hot-air balloon in this charming seaside thriller. For Lyon Wentworth's birthday, his wife, Bea, gives him something a custom wicker basket made to fit his prized hot-air balloon. In return, Lyon gives Bea what she wants more than anything a promise to end his career as an amateur sleuth and stop risking his neck to solve impossible murders. But promises are hard to keep, and Lyon will be caught up in another mystery before his feet touch the ground. Lyon is cruising over Long Island Sound when he sees his friend Tom's private plane spewing black smoke. Before he can radio the coast guard, the plane crashes and is swallowed by the waves. Tom was an expert pilot, and Lyon is certain that he wouldn't have made a fatal error. Perhaps the plane was tampered with . . . But when a phone call from Tom comes after his supposed death, Lyon realizes this murder has taken the leap from improbable to impossible. Richard Forrest's Lyon and Bea Wentworth Mysteries are some of the most intelligent thrillers ever written. As witty and urbane as Dashiell Hammett's Nick and Nora Charles, the Wentworths approach homicide with effortless style. Book.
