Sixteen-year-old Khetiwe has a natural talent for swimming. When she is given a scholarship to a prestigious Johannesburg private school, she immediately bumps up against Farrah, the swimming captain, who sees her as competition.
As “the poor girl”, Khetiwe is already struggling to fit in, but Farrah sets out to make her life unbearable. When the two girls clash over Aidan – Farrah’s exboyfriend – Farrah becomes even more unhinged. The constant bullying is starting to seriously affect Khetiwe, but when she tries to defend herself, things turn out even worse...
A realistic portrayal of teenage angst with a cast of believable, authentic characters.

mice a world of terror and heroic adventure. As the rats seek to
summon the demon hordes and bring about the end of the world, the
Deptford Mice must confront treacherous enemies and ancient magic
in a battle to save London and the world from eternal darkness.

Industrial and agricultural greenhouse gas emissions are rapidly
warming Earth’s climate, unleashing rising seas, ocean
acidification, melting permafrost, powerful storms, wildfires,
floods, deadly heat waves, droughts, tsunamis, food shortages,
reduced nutritional levels in crops, and armed conflict over
shrinking water supplies. Billions of people will become climate
refugees. Hotter temperatures will allow tropical diseases to
spread into temperate regions. Higher levels of CO2, allergens,
dust, and other particulate matter will impair our physical and
mental health and even reduce our cognitive abilities. Climate
change disproportionately affects the world’s poor. It also harms
Nature, and could ultimately trigger a sixth mass extinction. In
Escaping Nature, Orrin H. Pilkey and his coauthors offer concrete
suggestions for how to respond to the threats posed by global
climate change. They argue that, while we wait for the world’s
governments to get serious about mitigating climate change, we can
adapt to a hotter world through technological innovations,
behavioral changes, nature-based solutions, political changes, and
education.

"As departments...scramble to decolonize their curriculum, Givens
illuminates a longstanding counter-canon in predominantly black
schools and colleges." -Boston Review "Informative and
inspiring...An homage to the achievement of an often-forgotten
racial pioneer." -Glenn C. Altschuler, Florida Courier "A
long-overdue labor of love and analysis...that would make Woodson,
the ever-rigorous teacher, proud." -Randal Maurice Jelks, Los
Angeles Review of Books "Fascinating, and groundbreaking. Givens
restores Carter G. Woodson, one of the most important educators and
intellectuals of the twentieth century, to his rightful place
alongside figures like W. E. B. Du Bois and Ida B. Wells." -Imani
Perry, author of May We Forever Stand: A History of the Black
National Anthem Black education was subversive from its inception.
African Americans pursued education through clandestine means,
often in defiance of law and custom, even under threat of violence.
They developed what Jarvis Givens calls a tradition of "fugitive
pedagogy"-a theory and practice of Black education epitomized by
Carter G. Woodson-groundbreaking historian, founder of Black
History Month, and legendary educator under Jim Crow. Givens shows
that Woodson succeeded because of the world of Black teachers to
which he belonged. Fugitive Pedagogy chronicles his ambitious
efforts to fight what he called the "mis-education of the Negro" by
helping teachers and students to see themselves and their mission
as set apart from an anti-Black world. Teachers, students,
families, and communities worked together, using Woodson's
materials and methods as they fought for power in schools. Forged
in slavery and honed under Jim Crow, the vision of the Black
experience Woodson articulated so passionately and effectively
remains essential for teachers and students today.

being there for someone when they are at their most vulnerable, and
brings to life a pure and poignant friendship that children will
never forget.

This book provides a comprehensive biblical and theological survey
of the people of God in the Old and New Testaments, offering
insights for today's transformed and ethnically diverse church.
Jarvis Williams explains that God's people have always been
intended to be a diverse community. From Genesis to Revelation, God
has intended to restore humanity's vertical relationship with God,
humanity's horizontal relationship with one another, and the entire
creation through Jesus. Through Jesus, both Jew and gentile are
reconciled to God and together make up a transformed people.
Williams then applies his biblical and theological analysis to
selected aspects of the current conversation about race, racism,
and ethnicity, explaining what it means to be the church in today's
multiethnic context. He argues that the church should demonstrate
redemptive kingdom diversity, for it has been transformed into a
new community that is filled with many diverse ethnic communities.

grave in Greyfriar's Kirkyard, Edinburgh, has been popular from

everyone's dog' and gave Bobby the Freedom of the City of
Edinburgh); William Brodie, the sculptor of the famous statue;
Edinburgh's shocking health record; Bobby's Edinburgh; Bobby's
breed - why the name? The book is illustrated with drawings and
photographs and relevant objects from the collections of National
Museums Scotland and its Scottish Life Archive. An eight-page
activity section includes: Dog issues - true or false? How well do
you know your dog? Wordsearch. Follow in Bobby's pawprints.
Greyfriars Bobby is the latest title in the Scotties series of
activity books for young readers. Each contains a wealth of
interesting facts, stimulating activities, a list of websites and
suggestions for places to visit.
