Dumbunny is an enchanting picture book starring the only backward bunny you are ever likely to meet. What a perfect book for rabbit lovers; for young children whose abilities or disabilities set them apart; and for anyone who gleefully anticipates the arrival of spring. This rabbit tale is inspired by a friendship that has lasted a lifetime. In the 1960's the author's mother created this story for her youngest daughter and the best friend who lived next door. Since grammar school, the illustrator and the author have remained best friends. They have collaborated to share with you this charming tale of family, of work, of differences and of life's possibilities. The illustrator, Carolyn Crampton, is also the author of a humorous guide to bunnies called "Rabbit Language or Are you going to eat that?"

This 2009 book explores the complex relationship between international trade and poverty reduction through a combination of research papers and contemporary case studies. Written mainly by developing-country authors in consultation with local businesses and communities, the case studies contribute to our understanding of the ways in which low-income communities are dealing with trade as a practical challenge, especially in the Asia-Pacific region where approximately two-thirds of the world's poor live. While making it clear that there is no 'one size fits all' formula, the research and stories highlight a number of necessary preconditions, such as political commitment and cooperation at all levels, if trade is to successfully reduce poverty. Openness to trade, serious commitment to domestic reform, trade-related capacity building, a robust and responsible private sector and access to the markets of developed countries are all identified as powerful tools for building trade-related sustainable development.

Stanley Kubrick directs this chilling adaptation of the Stephen King shocker. Seeking solitude in order to write a novel, Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) takes a job as an off-season caretaker at the remote Overlook Hotel in Colorado. Eager to get started, Jack disregards warnings that the isolation drove a former caretaker mad, and moves into the massive resort with his wife Wendy (Shelley Duvall) and son Danny (Danny Lloyd). But Danny has a supernatural gift which makes him aware of an evil lurking in the hotel, and sure enough, as winter storms cut the hotel off from civilisation, Jack gradually becomes murderously insane.

This collection combines poetry and short stories which focus on all manner of topics, from mother nature, to heritage and crafts. There are many humorous observations of modern life in general and the challenges presented by the Third Age.
