Mrs Noah sang to the children when they woke in the morning. She
sang as she worked in the garden, growing flowers and growing food.
She sang lullabies at night to help the children sail into sleep
"If you want to learn to sing," Mrs Noah tells the children, "first
you must learn how to listen. Close your eyes, tight shut, and open
your ears, wide, wide." At first the children hear only silence,
then birds call, bees hum - and they hear the song of the garden.
That night, Mr Noah makes a surprise present for the family so that
they can all sleep together out in the garden. Then, at dawn
there's the best surprise of all - the magical sound of the dawn
chorus, led by the phoenix. On a joyful new day, Mrs Noah's
birthday, there is birdsong in the garden and a future full of
shared song for Mr and Mrs Noah and the children.

Pebble-hunting is a pleasant hobby that makes little demand upon one's patience and still less upon one's physical energy. (You may even enjoy the hunt from the luxurious sloth of a deck chair). One of the true delights of the pebble-seeker is to read the stories in the stones - to determine whence and by what means they came to be there. We must always bear in mind that a pebble is a transient thing. It is in the half-way stage of a long existence . . .
This is a spirited guide to the simple pleasure of pebble spotting. Clarence Ellis is a charming, knowledgeable and witty guide to everything you didn't know there was to know about pebbles. He ruminates on what a pebble actually is, before showing us how they are formed, advising on the best pebble-spotting grounds in the UK, helping to identify individual stones, and giving tips onthe necessary kit. You'll know your chert from your schist, your onyx from your agate and will be on your guard for artificial intruders before you know it. Understanding the humble pebble makes a trip to the beach, lake-side or river bank simply that little bit more fascinating.
A handy illustrated guide to identifying pebbles is included on the reverse of the book jacket.
From the smallest seeds to the tallest trees, this beautiful children's
guide is a must-have for any budding botanist or plant lover.
We can't live without plants. We need them for food, shelter, even the
air we breathe, yet we know surprisingly little about them. Why do
thistles bristle with spines? How do some plants trap and eat insects?
Did you know there are trees more than 5,000 years old? Trees, Leaves,
Flowers & Seeds explores the mysterious world of plants to find the
answers to these and many more questions.
This picture-packed encyclopedia shows a wonderful variety of plants,
from fantastic ferns to spiky cacti. It explores the diverse habitats
of plants, herbs and spices that make our food tasty, and even how
astronuats grow plants in space. It also takes a fun, more sideways
look at some truly weird and wonderful plants, including leaves that
are home to frogs, orchids that look like parrots, and seeds that spin
like helicopters.
So open this fascinating ebook and find out more about the amazing
world of trees, leaves, flowers, and seeds.
