And, after having frightful nightmares featuring Liu Zhi, his son was ready to go seek for his father. Zheng'd made a promise to his father and he intended to fulfill it. He considers himself a master thief even though he almost gets himself and the others arrested, twice. Lavinia was a girl who wanted to become a doctor, but her efforts were rebuffed by her father. She discovered her peculiarity when examining her younger brother to try curing his nightmares. Her father was not enthusiastic about it, as Lavinia would never know if a person truly deserved having nightmares. Lavinia got coerced into taking away the nightmares of a secret murderer, which she regretted after finding out his true nature. In the better ending of the story, she manages to kill the murderer, then swore off using her ability for good and became a doctor of psychology.

These tales begin on a hungry note and leave on a sad one. But none that will leave you down in the dumps angry. Millard is 87 (though he tells Lilly he is 97 in A Map of Days) now 16 and has lived with Miss Peregrine for a great number of years. An estimated year of birth would be 1924, considering what year the book takes place in. He is one of the few characters who reveal their age to Jacob, the others being Enoch, Horace, Olive and Emma.

Ymeene, born into a family of goshawks, has always felt unaccepted in her environment. She's been afflicted and blessed with the ability to turn into both bird and human. I found the illustrations to be beautiful in this e-book. I would love to see the gold lettering and illustrations in a hardcover. It was then that Ymeene realized her time-looping talent had a use she’d never fully understood—one that would change peculiar society forever, though she couldn’t have known it then. She’d made a safe place for them, a bubble of stalled time, and the peculiars watched in fascination as the normals’ army advanced toward them and then faded away, over and over again, in a three-minute loop.” The Splendid Cannibal - A population of peculiars can regrow limbs at will. A group of hungry cannibals move in next door and are willing to pay. Soon comes a story of greed and loss -though not on the side you'd think. According to Jacob, Millard is a bit of a sycophant when it comes to the rules. He constantly refuses to help with plans and schemes, and he refuses to participate in what the other children view as fun. However, in A Map of Days, Millard willingly decides to come with Jacob and some others on their trip to rescue a peculiar child.
