The What Do We Know About? series explores the mysterious, the
unknown, and the unexplained. Is there really a mysterious,
blood-sucking creature called the Chupcabra? Early one morning in
1995, a rancher in Humacao, Puerto Rico, found three of his goats
dead. The blood seemed to have been drained from their
bodies. As dozens more farm animals were found dead across
the island, the fear of the so-called Chupacabra -- the "goat
sucker" --Â grew. But was a mysterious cryptid really
responsible for all of these deaths? And if so, where would it go
next? Follow the trail of the Chupacabra in this exciting new
title.

Learn about the life of one of today's most popular musicians in
this Who HQ Now biography about Harry Styles and his exciting
career from One Direction to his Grammy-winning solo performances.
In 2010, Harry Styles was thrust into the spotlight when he
auditioned for X-Factor and was placed in a new band called One
Direction. That band of five young men would go on to place third
in the competition, but their time together wouldn't stop there.
They went on to release five albums and headline four international
tours. When the band went on a break in 2016, Harry Styles decided
to pursue his dream of being a solo artist. Since then, Harry has
released three albums, sold out massive tours, and won a Grammy
award. In addition to his musical success, Harry has also acted in
several blockbuster movies, including Dunkirk and Don't Worry
Darling. In everything that he does, Harry inspires his fans to
"Treat People With Kindness," his slogan that encourages people to
love and respect everyone around them.
Over sixty years after his death in 1931, Vincent d'Indy is still a
much misunderstood and maligned figure in French music. Previous
biographers have left a portrait of the academic figure par
excellence, who turned the seemingly inspired and selfless
inspiration of his master Cesar Franck into a cold and
authoritarian pedagogical system. This new study re-examines the
evidence, reveals a much more psychologically complex and turbulent
character, and finds that d'Indy was a tireless propagandist for a
spiritual revival of French musical civilization. Yet he was fully
aware of the social and intellectual problems of the secular Third
Republic which militated against his Dante-inspired Catholic
humanism, embodied in the work of the Schola Cantorum, the Paris
institution founded by d'Indy to reform the practice of sacred
music. Far from being a pure reactionary, his outlook was in
reality remarkably progressive, manifest in his revivals of early
music, notably Monteverdi's Orfeo, his encouragement of Debussy,
and his willingness to engage - often pugnaciously - with the
latest musical manifestations of Richard Strauss, Stravinsky,
Schoenberg, and Varese. His own compositions likewise contain
passages of astonishingly bold invention and modernistic effects,
all too easily overlooked.
