Book Description
When a little girl feels like the pain of the world is too much, she builds a tough-skinned rhino suit to protect herself. When one little girl sees litter in the streets, an animal without shelter, and the pain of a parent, the weight of the world feels like too much to bear. She feels everything so deeply, it makes her want to hide. One day, when the tenderness and pain of the world feel like they are more than she can handle, she has a grand idea. She decides to build a rhino suit to keep herself safe. Inside the rhino’s armor, the pain of the world is easy for the girl to ignore—but the beauty and joy that the world has to offer are hidden from her, too. And soon, she finds that the rhino suit blocks off her ability to help. Maybe living without thick skin is worth the risk ... With soft and emotive illustrations and a story that will open hearts, The Rhino Suit is about moving from fear to courageousness, from brokenness to wholeness, and from feeling shut down to letting all of life in.

ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
“From Its Hollywood-esque opening scene to the final battle with everything on the line. Psychic Suit is a fresh take on a genre gone relatively stale and formulaic. Songspire Publishing found a diamond in the rough.” - Independent Review After years in the shadows, Nick Fletcher and The Circle burst into the light with a devastating terror attack on New York City. The sky is painted red with their vengeance as screams envelop the air. The weapon they used is unlike any other, powered by a rare and sacred metal from space called Psychanium. One problem. Nearly all the Psychanium is in the hands of The Psychics, a race of “advanced humans” some of whom are blessed with abilities beyond imagination. Questions abound about how The Circle, a terrorist organization got its hands on the most guarded metal in the world. Those questions are directed at Isazisi Irving, The Red Cyan Psychic Suit and leader of Providence, an international intelligence organization tasked with handling existential and extraterrestrial threats, and Versia, The Cyan Psychic Suit, another prominent Psychic now under fire for The Circle’s attack. Unfortunately, they aren't the only ones affected. Caitlyn, the depressed, suicidal, alcoholic of a Psychic. Will her powers be able to sustain her as she seeks to help her Psychic brothers and sisters in the fight, or will her mental state crack under the weight of this new challenge? Jake, the calm, collected Psychic who is swift like the wind, and light on his feet, yet who fights his own inner battles, will he be of help in the fight? Reese, can she keep Isazisi in line while he hides secret after secret, or will he go off the deep end chasing revenge against the Circle for more than just New York? Jasmine, will her code and ethics allow her to do what it takes to vanquish the Circle, or will she stand by her morals? Issac, the mysterious and powerful Psychic suit, seemingly aloof in his dealings with the world, will he see fit to assist his Psychic brethren in this generation's greatest fight? Isazisi and Versia know New York will not be the last attack, but with all the scrutiny mounting, can they group the Psychics together and man an effective counterattack? Nick Fletcher is a man willing to do whatever it takes to achieve The Circle’s goals, and the Psychics must band together to stop him before he burns everything to the ground. Are they going to sit around and let him? Not a chance.

Don't Panic
Author: Neil Gaiman
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504056280
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
The #1 New York Times–bestselling author’s “hilarious . . . idiosyncratic . . . delightful” and definitive companion to a global phenomenon (Publishers Weekly). Douglas Adams’s “six-part trilogy,” The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy grew from a blip of a notion into an ever-expanding multimedia universe that amassed an unprecedented cult of followers and became an international sensation. As a young journalist, Neil Gaiman was given complete access to Adams’s life, times, gossip, unpublished outtakes, and files (and became privy to his writing process, insecurities, disillusionments, challenges, and triumphs). The resulting volume illuminates the unique, funny, dramatic, and improbable chronicle of an idea, an incredibly tall man, and a mind-boggling success story. In Don’t Panic, Gaiman celebrates everything Hitchhiker: the original radio play, the books, comics, video and computer games, films, television series, record albums, stage musicals, one-man shows, the Great One himself, and towels. And as Douglas Adams himself attested: “It’s all absolutely devastatingly true—except the bits that are lies.” Updated several times in the thirty years since its original publication, Don’t Panic is available for the first time in digital form. Part biography, part tell-all parody, part pop-culture history, part guide to a guide, Don’t Panic “deserves as much cult success as the Hitchhiker’s books themselves” (Time Out).
