A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER
Keo Felker Lazarus (1913-1993) was an American writer remembered for her Young Adult novels, of which the “Gismo” series (comprised of The Gismo, The Gismonauts, and Message from Monaal) was but a small part. She also wrote fantasy, historical, and western books and picture-books for younger readers, such as The Billy Goat in the Chili Patch, A Totem for Ti-Jacques, and Rattlesnake Run.
The Gismo and its sequels are not well known beyond a generation of American school kids who found them in their school classrooms and libraries. They were published for the educational market and were designed to be read by 4th to 8th grade readers in the 1970s and 1980s. (Am I dating myself if I admit to reading The Gismo in school?) I don’t think any copies were sold commercially. That doesn’t stop them from being exciting, fun books which hold up exceptionally well to this day.
Enjoy!

ABOUT THE SERIES
Over the last few years, our MEGAPACK® ebook series has grown to be our most popular endeavor. (Maybe it helps that we sometimes offer them as premiums to our mailing list!) One question we keep getting asked is, “Who’s the editor?”
The MEGAPACK® ebook series (except where specifically credited) are a group effort. Everyone at Wildside works on them. This includes John Betancourt (me), Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Shawn Garrett, Helen McGee, Bonner Menking, Sam Cooper, Helen McGee and many of Wildside’s authors…who often suggest stories to include (and not just their own!)

Unfortunately, as hard as we try, a few typos do slip through. We update our ebooks periodically, so make sure you have the current version (or download a fresh copy if it’s been sitting in your ebook reader for months.) It may have already been updated.
