Pigheaded. Batty. Bullheaded. When humans want to insult the
intelligence of another person, they often compare them to an
animal. But animals are smart. Really, really smart. There are
animals that use tools. Others that can solve complex problems.
Some have excellent memories. A few can even talk to us! With
animals having such mighty minds, the question is: who has the best
brainpower of them all? That's for you to decide! Full of
fascinating facts throughout in a fun "battle of the minds" format,
The Battle of the Brains includes a glossary and links to sources
and activities at the end, making it the perfect read for any
curious mind.
Come on, you know you'd look glamorous and powerful in black...that
lighting candles and calling spirits would give you an aura of
mystery...that life would be better if only you could turn your
history teacher into a jiggling mound of orange (or maybe lime)
Jell-O. Well, this book is here to tell you that wearing black
clothing and threatening people with hexes and curses won't make
you a Witch. In fact, neither will joining a coven or being
initiated. What "Teen Witch" will show you is that how you live,
how you deal with others, and how you incorporate Wiccan laws into
your life determines whether or not you are a true Witch. This
handbook presents everything from the Wiccan principles of belief,
traditions, symbols, holidays and rituals, to spells for homework
and dating.

Laughter is the best medicine, so give yourself a healthy dose of fun and silliness with Monster Doctor: Slime Crime. The third in a spectacularly slimy series of monster adventures written and illustrated by John Kelly that will have you roaring with laughter.
Ten years after Alex and Aaron Stowe brought peace to Quill and
Artime, their younger twin sisters journey beyond Artime in the
sixth novel in the New York Times bestselling sequel series to The
Unwanteds, which Kirkus Reviews called "The Hunger Games meets
Harry Potter." The Revinir is getting desperate. Following her
dramatic abduction of Fifer and Thisbe, the dragon woman traps the
twins in an isolated, crumbling palace and surrounds them with four
killer dragons in an attempt to coerce them to join her side. Hope
finally arrives when Dev sneaks into the castle and the threesome
reunites, hatching a plan against the Revinir so devious, so
horrifying, that it just might work. But when it comes time to act,
Thisbe struggles to confront her deepest fears about her inner
levels of good and evil and, to her own dismay, questions if she's
really been on the right side all along. In Artime, Rohan and Queen
Maiven join forces with Aaron, Florence, and the others to discover
the truth of what happened to the twins. But when Fifer sends a
devastating message that challenges everything they believe in,
Rohan attempts to handle the situation on his own...with disastrous
results.

If there really is alien life elsewhere in the Universe, then it's
reasonable to ask why we haven't seen it. Surely planet Earth must
have been visited by aliens, if they exist. Does that mean that
alien life doesn't exist? This book uses our knowledge of the
universe, some simple maths and a little bit of intelligent
speculation to take a sober look at the chances of our actually
meeting alien life. After all, we will only meet up if both of us
are in the right place at the right time. The Universe is a big
place - and it has been around for a long time. Perhaps we were
"out" when they visited us? This is a wonderful non-fiction book
which offers deep insights to inquiring minds in a way that is
simple yet not patronising. Light-hearted, stimulating and
entertaining, this book will answer at least some of the questions
that a curious child wants to know the answers to.

he is ready to do what needs to be done to save the dreamers and
the dreamed . . . even if it takes him far from his family and the
boy he loves. Jordan Hennessy knows she will not survive if the
dreaming fails. So she plunges into a dark underworld in order to
find an object that may sustain her. Carmen Farooq-Lane is afraid
of the dreamers -- which is why she's agreed to hunt them down. The
