Teenage Steven and his father, Corey, take to the road with a
Bible, an old army tent, and less than the best of intentions.
Tired of being poor, Steven's father is certain that preaching the
Word of the Lord is the easy way to fame and fortune. But just when
they've got their act down pat and the money is rolling in, Steven
and Corey begin to realize that what they'd originally thought of
as a harmless lie is all about avarice and power and, ultimately,
guilt.
" ""Each book includes a reader's guide."

in England than in his San Francisco home with his mother and her
new husband. To raise the money needed to finance his trip to
England, he stages his own kidnapping, but the plan backfires when
someone decides to make the kidnapping a reality. "A common family
situation becomes action-filled drama in Bunting's capable
hands."--"Booklist"

A highly original non-fiction guide on waste and the environment
for a young audience. Your Planet Needs You! is packed with simple
and entertaining ways that kids and their families can reduce,
re-use, recycle, renew and REALLY GET INVOLVED in cleaning up our
planet. Nobody really likes to think about rubbish (pee-ew!). But
whether you know it or not, waste is part of everyone’s lives.
Each year, a single person can create up to a tonne of waste.
That’s the equivalent weight of a small hippo! Where does waste
come from? Where does it end up? And what can we do to help our
planet? Renowned picture book creator Philip Bunting answers all
these questions and more in this entertaining and enlightening look
at how to wallop waste and reduce rubbish. Learn how to start a
compost bin, or how to use an old egg carton to sprout your very
own seedlings. Get tips on cool things you can do with empty tin
cans or an old pair of socks, and discover how long different
things take to decompose – from an apple core to a gumboot to a
plastic bag. With a positive outlook and a generous dollop of
humour, Your Planet Needs You! shows that taking care of our
environment can be both fun and rewarding. You can be the change!
Your planet needs you! For ages 4 and up.

When a strange-looking animal arrives pulling a big suitcase, the
other animals are curious. What on earth could be inside that
suitcase? A teacup? Maybe. A table and chair? Perhaps. A whole home
and hillside with trees? This stranger must be fibbing! But when
the animals break into the suitcase and discover a very special
photograph, they begin to understand what the strange creature has
been through, and together they create a very special welcome
present . . .
Raft down rapids to see raccoons, ski across ice to spot emperor
penguins and dive underwater to explore the coral reef and learn
why discovering animals is SUPER exciting! From the leafy green
canopy of the rainforest, where gibbons communicate by singing, to
the scorching hot desert where one of the world's DEADLIEST
scorpions lives, planet Earth is full of AMAZING animals that are
just waiting to be discovered. Did you know that marine iguanas
sneeze out salty sea water after a big swim? Or that a narwhal's
tusk is actually a very, VERY long tooth? And did you know that
dung beetles are the STRONGEST animals on earth? Explore a
different habitat on every spread, with fun and vibrant
illustrations and fact-filled text for intrepid adventurers who
want to know EVERYTHING about the world we live in. Readers will be
taken all around the globe to discover a world of animals across
rainforests and jungles, rivers and rapids, deserts and ice, and
much more. Do You Love Exploring? is the third book in the
award-winning series by Matt Robertson that includes Do You Love
Bugs? and Do You Love Dinosaurs?
The year is 1868, and fourteen-year-old Alika and his younger
brother, Sulu, are hunting for seals on an ice floe attached to
their island in the Arctic. Suddenly they hear the terrible sound
of the floe breaking free from land. The boys watch with horror as
they start drifting south--away from their home, their family, and
everything they've ever known.
Throughout their six-month-long journey down the Greenland Strait,
the boys face bitter cold, starvation, and vicious polar bears. And
yet, in this moving testament to the bond between brothers, Alika
and Sulu remain hopeful that one day they'll be rescued .""
"Includes a map, a glossary of Inuit words and phrases, "
"and an author's note".""
