and saving lives, theTitanic is explored and explained in
fascinating detail with intricate cutaway scenes and
cross-sections. ?? Meet the captain, crew, and passengers from all
walks of life who lost their lives or survived the sinking.

wreck.?? Whether you're a history buff or simply seeking help for a

Dedicated to the 70th anniversary of World War II's D-Day this
commemorative edition of Heroic Histories series is packed with
information and activities to explore the past in a fun way
Includes colourful and humorous illustrations that are age
appropriate and quirky.
It's difficult to be separated from those we love, and sometimes it's
hard to feel connected when we can't be together in person.
This board book helps fill that need to connect, with a simple message:
I'm still here, even though I'm not right there beside you. A series of
scenarios depicts a narrator employing various forms of
communication—from video calls and letters to dolphin-messengers and
skywriting—to say a simple "hello" to someone far away.
Exploring the idea of connecting over distance, whether it's through a
pane of glass or across a continent, this book delivers its earnest
message in a lighthearted way, engaging children's imaginations in
thinking of delightful new ways to say "hello." The book will remind
them that they are loved by those they can't always see. Instead of
emphasizing what we can't do when we're apart, this book takes a
positive view and makes a game out of finding new ways we can
communicate.
Reassuring and imaginative, this board book fills a growing need to
reach out and connect with one another.
Hello from Here features:
- Timely Topic: Current events have made distanced greetings
a near-universal fact of life
- Timeless Appeal: There are always circumstances that
separate loved ones, and there is always a need for books that help
bridge that separation
- Encourages Creativity: Imaginative means of communication
are mixed with more typical methods, engaging children in the story and
inviting them to add their own ideas on how to stay connected
