Imbokodo: Women Who Shape Us is a groundbreaking series of books which introduces you to the powerful stories of South African women who have all made their mark and cleared a path for women and girls. These books recognise, acknowledge and honour our heroines and elders from the past and the present. South African women are silent no more on the roles that we have played in advancing our lives as artists, storytellers, writers, politicians and educationists. The title 'Imbokodo' was been chosen as it is a Zulu word that means "rock" and is often used in the saying 'Wathint' Abafazi, Wathint' Imbokodo!', which means "You Strike a Women, You Strike a Rock!" These books were made possible with the support of Biblionef and funding from the National Arts Council. In 10 Curious Inventors, Healers & Creators you will read about the women who shape our world through education, science and maths. You will read about women who became teachers, nurses, social workers, scientists and community workers, overcame obstacles and through their work fought for social change.

This is a book about farm animals, and what happens during one year on a farm.

In January, the cows stay in the barnyard, and the chickens don't lay many eggs. By March, you can tell spring is coming: the barn is filled with baby animals. Month by month, the animals at Maple Hill Farm sense the changing seasons and respond to the changes.

Through gently humorous text and charming illustrations, Alice and Martin Provensen capture one year at their beloved Maple Hill Farm in a way sure to delight city slickers and country folk alike.

What if, at the dawn of the American nation, Army officers plotted successfully to overthrow Congress and enthrone George Washington as King of the United States?

Time has passed, and the year is 1925. Ravaged by more than a century of revolutions, the Union is falling apart. American King Augustine grovels at the feet of the British Empire, begging aid for his bankrupt kingdom. His war against the Republic of Louisiana is a resounding disaster. Repeatedly smashed by the enemy, the starved U.S. Army is fleeing the battlefield.

An evil cult on the loose in the nation's capital of Philadelphia has thrown the city into a hysterical frenzy. Unfortunately for the royals, the cult's main gateway to Hell is hidden somewhere in the palace.

The kingdom is desperate for a warrior saint to deliver it from evil. Americans look to His Royal Highness Crown Prince Johnny Washington-Bourbon as the perfect savior. He flies combat missions and heals with his touch. The people adore him. Sworn enemies put aside their differences to join his crusade.

There's just one problem--twelve-year-old Johnny has far more courage than common sense, and his harebrained schemes to save America are disasters waiting to happen.
