What you say (and how you say it) has the power to change the
world. Democracy gives you that power. Democracy is people power.
But does democracy really matter? How does it work? And what
exactly is democracy, anyway?! Get set to speak up and learn how
you can create positive change in your corner of the world.
Democracy! is full of fascinating and engaging information about
democracy, and provides young readers with easily digestible
information about the importance of their voice. It is filled with
handy tips on how to engage in community discussions, from
petitions to peaceful protests, and explains the history of
democracy in a funny and positive way.
This charming concertina book follows the journey of a little
submersible on a voyage beneath the waves, down into the deep dark
ocean and back again. Folding out to nearly 2.5 metres, children
can look at all the different things the sub sees on its way, as it
travels past a shipwreck, through a coral reef, near to a pod of
orcas hunting for their lunch, close to a leatherback turtle
feasting on jellyfish, and past some rather strange deep-sea fish.
Playful text guides the journey, providing a fun shared experience
and a conversation starter for parents and young children. The
reverse side of the concertina features spot illustrations picked
out from the main scene, with more expansive information about
submarines, ocean life and the dangers it is facing.
Father To Son, A Guide To Growing Up In A Difficult World is a no
nonsense book which is targeted primarily to young men who are not
being raised by their fathers, who need male guidance in their
life, and or, who just cannot find their way to the right path of
manhood. Although it targets the young, many people from age 22 to
82 may find this book to be very helpful. The book addresses the
current issues and problems that our youth have to deal with and
why, from a father to son perspective. It also gives guidance and
direction for those who might need it.

influences guided and inspired her along the way? In this young
readers edition of Kamala Harris's memoir, we learn about the

led her to discover her own sense of self and purpose. The Truths
We Hold traces her journey as she explored the values she holds

and empowering memoir, this book challenges us to become leaders in
our own lives and shows us that with determination and perseverance

Crazy about Wii, Nintendo, X-Box, and PlayStation? Meet the
inventor whose work made them all possible: Ralph Baer, creator of
the first home video game system! Today, the video game industry
keeps growing, with ever more platforms available to fans. But how
did the very first system come about? This picture-book biography
of Ralph Baer, whose family fled Nazi Germany for the US,
introduces kids to a great inventor AND the birth of the first home
console. Using wartime technology, Baer thought outside the box and
transformed the television into a vehicle for gaming; Baer's
invention, the Odyssey, is a precursor to the Atari gaming system.
Today, interactive systems like Wii and PlayStation are descendants
of Ralph's innovative "Brown Box," making this award-winning
inventor the true "Father of Video Games."
