They Are Here!
Author: Roland Smith
Publisher: Henry Holt and Company (BYR)
ISBN: 1250762383
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 127
Book Description
From the New York Times-bestselling author, Roland Smith, comes a fascinating, fact-filled resource that explores how humans have introduced—on purpose and by accident—plants and animals to parts of the world where they were previously unknown. . .sometimes with disastrous results. Did you know that brown rats were brought to the United States in the eighteenth century on a ship from England? Or that thousands of exotic pets were released into the Florida Everglades after a hurricane in 1992, leading to today’s booming Burmese python population? All over the country, non-native species from around the world have been introduced to our lands, irrevocably changing the natural balances of their new habitats. This is the story of some of those newcomers, but also of human error and nature gone wild. By looking at thirty different intrusive plants and animals, They Are Here! explores invasive species, their impact on our environment, and the steps we can take to support local ecosystems under threat.

23 Skiddoo: Way back beyond across the stars
Author: Wyman Wicket
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1483450511
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
Altruistic Red Pill Fantasy. We sometimes hear things that cannot be definitively traced to a source. This nurtures a sense of magic all the more, as befuddlement trumps our rational ability to figure out and explain something our senses tell us is there none-the-less. Such phenomena can instill fear-fear of the unknown-and this, in turn, might pry open our souls, our consciousness, our life force, enough for a malevolent force to gain entry; at least this is a premise to be found in 23 Skiddoo.

Make Believe
Author: Kate Ryan
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781925432558
Category : Artists, Dutch
Languages : en
Pages : 87
Book Description
Make Believe: M.C. Escher for Kids (National Gallery of Victoria) is shortlisted in the CBCA Eve Pownall category for information books. It was written to complement the Escher artworks shown at the Gallery but has an ongoing life of its own after the exhibition. The book is well designed with a contents page and photographic representations of the illustrated work at the end. There is quite minimal, well-chosen written text in this sumptuous production. The illustrations do most of the work of communicating the life and art of 20th century Dutchman M.C. Escher. Escher, or Maurits, as he is known in the book, lived in Italy for many years and was inspired by the landscape - built and natural - there. Make Believe is structured as a mixture of biography and art, with interactive activities for children and tangents into geometry and science based on Escher's work. Above all, it is a wonderful exploration and celebration of his art for primary-aged children.
