Book Description
A stunning new collection of typographic illustrations paired with delightful not-so-nonsense verse. Every animal portrait is made from the letters that spell that animal's name.These ingenious illustrations link letter and image in a totally new way, creating a connection between word and picture that will help improve letter recognition, spelling and design skills. Readers are challenged to find the letters, spell the animal subject, unpuzzle the image, and marvel at the construction of each image. Extra information keeps readers interested: Did you know that the octopus has nine brains? Can you make a portrait of an octopus from the letters of its name? Did you know you could make a swan with just four beautiful letters? If you rearrange the letters of an armadillo, do you still have an armadillo? Discover a world where letters and nature meet. Discover the kooky connections between letter shapes and animal body language. This book is deliciously large, and rich enough in glorious colour and detail to immerse young readers in letter-shape and design.

Book Description
First published in 1980. Psychology is today increasingly diversified, sophisticated, pluralistic, and specialized, and psychologists venture beyond the confines of their narrow subdiscipline only rarely. Yet psychologists with different specialties encounter similar problems, ask similar questions, and share similar concerns. Unfortunately, there are far too few forums for the expression or exploration of what is common in psychology. The series, Crosscurrents in Contemporary Psychology, is intended to serve as such a forum. The purpose of this volume, Comparative Methods in Psychology is to make available to the psychological community thoughtful essays that examine the history, philosophy, theory, methodology, and experimentation representative of major comparative methods. The chapters in this collection are intended to introduce students of psychology to specialized modes of comparison from the perspectives of prominent contributors and to promote mutual discussion among comparativists of issues and concerns common to all types of comparison.

Book Description
What happens when the truth gets lost? Where wild animals and people meet, tragedy can strike, But when a tiny baby is stolen by a dingo, people simply cannot accept such a thing. Prejudice and gossip grip the nation, and the tragedy transforms into a fight for the truth. How did it all go so wrong? This is a true Australian story of innocence, ignorance, and the perils of 'mob thinking'. A beautifully illustrated non-fiction picture book that sensitively explores the collision of wilderness and civilisation, explains a famous miscarriage of justice, and examines the role of the media in history-telling, in an appropriate manner for young readers. "An important story for children about one of Australia's most dramatic miscarriages of justice." --The Hon. Justice Lex Lasry, AM "A modern day fairy tale, cautionary and unforgettable. Essential reading for students of history and the law, young and old." The book forms an excellent cross-curricular resource, ideal for class discussion and activity.
