I have just killed myself. I meant it to be quick, but when I came
to stick the poison arrow into the vein in my arm, I couldn't, and
the arrow tip went into the thickest part of my leg instead. Maybe,
inside my head, I wanted a little more time. To think. So I am
sitting here under the thin shade of a thorn tree and thinking
about my life and the things that were me - Be, of the Ju/'hoansi
people. Be's story is one of sadness, but it is also a story of
love, courage and dignity. It is told masterfully by Lesley Beake,
award-winning novelist for young people.

The best way to learn any instrument is to have lessons from a
good, experienced teacher. Although the number of such teachers is
constantly growing, the recorder is still frequently taught by
enthusiastic but inexperienced teachers and many players start by
teaching themselves. This series of books sets out to help learners
of all ages in all three situations. Experienced teachers, who may
choose to disregard much of the text as personal demonstration is
always clearer than the written word, will find exercises and fine
tunes a-plenty to support their own mathod at each stage. The less
experienced will benefit from many valuable teaching hints culled
from long experience and may rely on the books to lead to a sound
playing technique and a mastery of simple notation.

Tucker is a streetwise city mouse. He thought he'd seen it all. But
he's never met a cricket before, which really isn't surprising,
because, along with his friend Harry Cat, Tucker lives in the very
heart of New York City--the Times Square subway station. Chester
Cricket never intended to leave his Connecticut meadow. He'd be
there still if he hadn't followed the entrancing aroma of
liverwurst right into someone's picnic basket. Now, like any
tourist in the city, he wants to look around. And he could not have
found two better guides--and friends--than Tucker and Harry. The
trio have many adventures--from taking in the sights and sounds of
Broadway to escaping a smoky fire.
Chester makes a third friend, too. It is a boy, Mario, who rescues
Chester from a dusty corner of the subway station and brings him to
live in the safety of his parents' newsstand. He hopes at first to
keep Chester as a pet, but Mario soon understands that the cricket
is more than that. Because Chester has a hidden talent and no
one--not even Chester himself--realizes that the little country
cricket may just be able to teach even the toughest New Yorkers a
thing or two. "The Cricket in Times Square" is a 1961 Newbery Honor
Book.

FEATURED IN THE NEW YORK TIMES Part of the Ordinary Terrible Things
series, the new and expanded edition of Death Is Stupid is an
invaluable tool for discussing death, exploring grief, and honoring
the life of our loved ones. When someone we love dies, adults often
say things like, "She's in a better place now," or "I know how you
feel." You do not, one little boy thinks after his grandma passes
away. Caught in the swirl of anger, confusion, and fear that
accompanies grief and mourning, he doesn't just think death is
unfair—he thinks death is stupid. It takes him some time, but
when he starts sharing cherished memories of his grandma and
working in her garden, he starts to feel just a little bit better.
Necessary, beautiful, and ultimately reassuring, Death Is Stupid
helps make death a little less scary—for kids and adults. The
Ordinary Terrible Things series shows children who navigate trouble
with their senses on alert and their souls intact. In these stories
of common childhood crises, help may come from family, counselors,
teachers, or dreams—but crucially, it's the children themselves
who find their way to cope and grow.
The story that inspired the new MAJOR MOTION PICTURE
When Winter was a baby, she was rescued from a crab trap, her tail
seriously damaged, and rushed to Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Winter
survived, but eventually her tail fell off. Then Winter received a
prosthetic tail. It was very challenging but now Winter is thriving
and using her new tail with great command. Every year, thousands of
visitors travel to visit Winter who has become an inspiration to
adults and children alike, especially to children who are amputees
themselves. And now Winter's story is soon to be a major motion
picture starring Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd, and Harry Connick
Jr.
