Book Description
Meet Cyrus Grant, rat shifter. Covered in trash? Check. Getting washed through a sewer in a thunderstorm, fighting for his life? Check. Hunted by a mad scientist and an evil fae? Ugh. Just another day in the life of a rat shifter… All Cyrus wanted to do was find a job so he could stop sleeping on his sister's couch. Getting turned into a rat? Not on his to-do list. Aren't shifters supposed to be lions, bears, and dudes with hairy man chests? Somebody missed the memo. Cyrus must survive the city’s paranormal underbelly, and worse—the brutal world of rats. If he can’t, he’s a dead rat walking. The Chicago Rat Shifter series is a fast-paced, full tilt urban fantasy that proves that the best heroes come in small packages. V2.0

Pages : 177
Book Description
There has been a terrible mistake. Instead of having thirty classrooms side by side, Wayside School is thirty storeys high! (The builder said he was sorry.) Perhaps that's why all sorts of strange and unusual things keep happening – especially in Mrs Jewls's classroom on the very top floor. There's the terrifying Mrs Gorf, who gets an unusually fruity comeuppance; Terrible Todd, who always gets sent home early; and Mauricia, who has a strange ice-cream addiction. Meanwhile, John can only read upside down, and Leslie is determined to sell her own toes. From top to bottom, Wayside is packed with quirky and hilarious characters who are all brought to life in this new edition with delightful illustrations by Aleksei Bitskoff throughout. This is an unmissable, irrepressible story of mixed-up mayhem from Louis Sachar, the bestselling author of Holes.

Rat: How the World's Most Notorious Rodent Clawed Its Way to the Top
Author: Jerry Langton
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1466872020
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
From its origins in the swamps of Southeast Asia to its role in the medieval Black Death to its unshakeable niche in modern urban centers, the rat has incredible evolutionary advantages. Combining biology with history, and social commentary with firsthand experience, Rat dispels the myths and exposes the little-known facts about the ubiquitous rodent. Plague carrier, city vermin, and an out-and-out menace to modern man, the rat, like death and taxes, is a certain fixture in humankind's history. Rats are found in virtually every nook and cranny of the globe and their numbers are ever increasing. Rats are always adapting and they seem to outwit any attempts by humans to wipe them out. What makes the rat such a worthy adversary and how has it risen to the top of the animal kingdom? • Rats have been discovered living in meat lockers. The rats in there simply grew longer hair, fatter bodies, and nested in the carcasses they fed upon. • A female rat can, under good conditions, have well over 100,000 babies in her lifetime. • A rat can fall fifty feet onto pavement and skitter away unharmed. • A rat's jaws can exert a force more than twenty times as powerful as a human's. • The front side of a rat's incisors are as hard as some grades of steel. In Rat: How the World's Most Notorious Rodent Clawed Its Way to the Top, Jerry Langton explores the history, myth, physiology, habits, and psyche of the rat and even speculates on the future of the rat and how they might evolve over the next few hundred years.
