This engagingly illustrated book tells in thrilling detail the
story of the Carpathia, the small vessel which saved hundreds of
people from drowing during the sinking of the Titanic. Written and
illustrated by debut Northern Irish artist Flora Delargy, whose
grandfather and great grandfather both worked in the Belfast
Shipyards where the Titanic was built, this exquisitely illustrated
story of quiet bravery tells in rich detail how the little ship
Carpathia saved 705 passengers of the Titanic from the icy waters
of the North Atlantic. 'A visual feast [...] Exquisite artwork
[...] A triumphant debut'- The Observer, Best Picture Books 'A tour
de force - a gripping account [..] spare, well-judged text and
delicate but powerful illustrations'- The Guardian 'I don't often
cry while reading non-fiction, but this powerful story, beautifully
told, brought me to tears [...] one of my books of the year'- Irish
Examiner With the approaching 110-year anniversary of the ship's
sinking, Rescuing Titanic and its story of the Carpathia offers a
fresh perspective on the incident from an author-illustrator
uniquely connected to the story. In the middle of the night, the
Carpathia received a distress call from the sinking Titanic. The
intrepid little ship heroically changed course and headed straight
into the frozen sea to help save as many people as it could. Follow
the Carpathia as it risks everything to navigate remote,
treacherous ice fields in the dark and come to the rescue of
passengers on the world-famous ocean liner. Along the journey, you
will learn all about Morse code, navigation tools, the different
roles of the crew, how the ships found each other, and
by-the-minute details of exactly what happened on this cold and
fateful night. The illustrations set the scene and take the reader
into the frozen eerie night in the North Atlantic. Beautiful
full-bleed illustration and vignettes give great detail about how
everyone on the ship made their own contribution and showed true
bravery. Rescuing Titanic shows that a glimmer of hope can be found
even in great tragedy and that heroes are not always big and
mighty, but can also be small and unassuming. This is the debut
book in the Hidden Histories series, which explores with beautiful
illustrations and vivid details the untold parts of stories we
thought we knew.

Race Cars is a children's book about white privilege created to
help parents and educators facilitate tough conversations about
race, privilege and oppression. Written by a clinical social worker
and child therapist with experience in anti-bias training and
edited by a diversity expert, Race Cars tells the story of 2 best
friends, a white car and a black car, that have different
experiences and face different rules while entering the same race.
Filled with bright, attention-grabbing illustrations, a notes and
activities section at the back helps parents, guardians and
teachers further discuss these issues with children. Why is this
book important? As early as 6 months old, a baby's brain can notice
race-based differences; children ages 2 to 4 can internalise racial
bias and start assigning meaning to race; and 5- to 8-year-olds
begin to place value judgments on similarities and differences. By
age 12, children have a complete set of stereotypes about every
racial, ethnic and religious group in society. Our guidance is
especially crucial during this impressionable time. Race Cars
offers a simple, yet powerful, way to introduce these complicated
themes to our children and is a valuable addition to classroom and
home libraries. "... a great tool for helping young people
understand structural racial inequality-and the importance of
challenging it!" - Margaret A. Hagerman, Associate Professor of
Sociology, Author of White Kids: Growing Up with Privilege in a
Racially Divided America "... can jumpstart important conversations
with children about racism, white privilege, and how to fight
racial injustice in their own lives." - Marianne Celano, New York
Times bestselling co-author of Something Happened in Our Town: A
Child's Story About Racial Injustice
