Touched by the Sun
Author: Carly Simon
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 0374721718
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
The instant New York Times bestseller | Named one of the ten best books of 2019 by People magazine A chance encounter at a summer party on Martha’s Vineyard blossomed into an improbable but enduring friendship. Carly Simon and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis made an unlikely pair—Carly, a free and artistic spirit still reeling from her recent divorce, searching for meaning, new love, and an anchor; and Jackie, one of the most celebrated, meticulous, unknowable women in American history. Nonetheless, over the next decade their lives merged in inextricable and complex ways, and they forged a connection deeper than either could ever have foreseen. The time they spent together—lingering lunches and creative collaborations, nights out on the town and movie dates—brought a welcome lightness and comfort to their days, but their conversations often veered into more profound territory as they helped each other navigate the shifting waters of life lived, publicly, in the wake of great love and great loss. An intimate, vulnerable, and insightful portrait of the bond that grew between two iconic and starkly different American women, Carly Simon’s Touched by the Sun is a chronicle, in loving detail, of the late friendship she and Jackie shared. It is a meditation on the ways someone can unexpectedly enter our lives and change its course, as well as a celebration of kinship in all its many forms. "In Touched by the Sun, Simon reveals an easy-going, playful side of [Jackie] that most people never saw — sneaking a smoke during intermission at the opera, frolicking in the ocean off the Vineyard . . . The woman who would later edit several of Simon’s children’s books was 'just fun to be around.'" —Juliet Pennington, The Boston Globe

The Sun Is Kind of a Big Deal
Author: Nick Seluk
Publisher: Scholastic Inc.
ISBN: 1338166980
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
A hilarious nonfiction picture book from the New York Times bestselling author and creator of Awkward Yeti. Oh hey, guess what? The Sun never stops working to keep things on Earth running smoothly. (That's why it's been Employee of the Month for 4.5 billion years.) So why does the Sun get to be the center of attention? Because it's our solar system's very own star! This funny and factual picture book from Awkward Yeti creator Nick Seluk explains every part of the Sun's big job: keeping our solar system together, giving Earth day and night, keeping us warm, and more. In fact, the Sun does so much for us that we wouldn't be alive without it. That's kind of a big deal. Each spread features bite-sized text and comic-style art with sidebars sprinkled throughout. Anthropomorphized planets (and Pluto) chime in with commentary as readers learn about the Sun. For instance, Mars found someone's rover. Earth wants the Sun to do more stuff for it. And Jupiter just wants the Sun's autograph. Funny, smart, and accessible, The Sun Is Kind of a Big Deal is a must-have!

Book Description
"Narain Khan was 25 when he left his family in India to fight in the Great War. Dreaming of being a successful chef in Europe, his fate was to be different to what he hoped it would be. Cruelly cut down by shrapnel in the no-man's land of the Western Front, his nightmare was only beginning. Set upon by a pack of crazed, feral vampires, he awoke into an eternal night as a sentient vampire, able to move in society, and feed without killing the host: but eternally imprisoned, never to see the sun again. Now 90 years later, Narain has reached a crossroads: The recent death of his long-term partner and food source, his growing attraction to a microbiologist who has a link to his past and a discovery that will affect all vampires, the re-emergence of two ghosts from his past and a new, terrifying breed of Vampire, Boris, will all test his belief in himself and draw him into a climactic struggle against the monsters without and within. For to touch the sun, you have to avoid being burned up in its fury"--Back cover.
