"No More Cyber Bullying " Cyber bullying is a serious matter that
can no longer be ignored. Most kids use cyber bullying because they
think that they can get away with it. There are many children who
will not tell their parents or a trusted adult about this abuse.
That's when things get worst and a lot of these children
contemplate suicide. We have lost too many children because of this
horrible epidemic. We need to stand together as a unit to put a
stop to this and say "No More Cyber Bullying " We don't have to
live this way. Parents should talk to their children openly and
children should be free to talk to their parents or someone that
they can trust. There's no reason why anyone should be bullied.

Harry Potter: A History Of Magic is the official book of the exhibition, a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration between Bloomsbury, J.K. Rowling and the brilliant curators of the British Library. It promises to take readers on a fascinating journey through the subjects studied at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry - from Alchemy and Potions classes through to Herbology and Care of Magical Creatures.
Each chapter showcases a treasure trove of artefacts from the British Library and other collections around the world, beside exclusive manuscripts, sketches and illustrations from the Harry Potter archive. There's also a specially commissioned essay for each subject area by an expert, writer or cultural commentator, inspired by the contents of the exhibition - absorbing, insightful and unexpected contributions from Steve Backshall, the Reverend Richard Coles, Owen Davies, Julia Eccleshare, Roger Highfield, Steve Kloves, Lucy Mangan, Anna Pavord and Tim Peake, who offer a personal perspective on their magical theme. Readers will be able to pore over ancient spell books, amazing illuminated scrolls that reveal the secret of the Elixir of Life, vials of dragon's blood, mandrake roots, painted centaurs and a genuine witch's broomstick, in a book that shows J.K. Rowling's magical inventions alongside their cultural and historical forebears.
This is the ultimate gift for Harry Potter fans, curious minds, big imaginations, bibliophiles and readers around the world who missed out on the chance to see the exhibition in person.

THE FIRST BEHIND-THE-SCENES HISTORY OF THE BELOVED GIRL DETECTIVE
"Through the history of Nancy Drew, Rehak sheds light on perhaps
the most successful writing franchise of all time and also the
cultural and historic changes through which it passed. Grab your
flashlights, girls. The mystery of Carolyn Keene is about to
begin." -- Karen Joy Fowler, author of THE JANE AUSTEN BOOK CLUB
* The original proposal for Nancy Drew suggested that her name be
Stella Strong, Nell Cody, Helen Hale, or Diana Dare.
"GIRL SLEUTH is meticulously researched, elegantly written, and
riveting. Melanie Rehak juxtaposes teen sleuth Nancy Drew's
omnipotence with the all-too-real struggles of her creators."
--Susan Kandel, author of NOT A GIRL DETECTIVE
* When Nancy Drew was introduced she wore cloche hats and gloves
whenever she was out in public. In the 50s she changed to sport
dresses and rompers and even -- gasp -- pants.
"Witty, fast-paced, and smart, Girl Sleuth makes the story behind
Nancy Drew as much fun to read as the mystery novels themselves.
It's superb."
--Jean Strouse, author of "Morgan, American Financier"
* Nancy and her boyfriend Ned Nickerson never once kissed, although
in "The Secret of the Old Attic" she does "faint into his strong
arms."
