Brothers in Arms is the remarkable true story of an orphaned bear
cub who grew into a World War ll hero alongside his brothers in
arms from award-winning author Susan Hood and star illustrator
Jamie Green. Perfect for fans of Finding Winnie. Wojtek was just an
orphaned bear cub (yes, an actual wild bear!) when a group of
teenaged Polish soldiers, many of whom were orphans themselves,
took him into their ranks during World War ll. Wojtek quickly
became a beloved and important member of the Polish II Corps.
Together with his brothers in arms, Wojtek helped his friends turn
the tide of World War II. This incredible true story teaches young
readers about the history of World War II while also underscoring
the life-changing power of teamwork and the enduring bonds of
friendship and love in the face of adversity. The picture book
includes extensively researched back matter based on interviews
with the soldiers and their descendants, photographs, additional
resources, further reading, and more!
All I am is a fisherman. That's all I'm guilty of, Your Honour. On
31 May 2010 eleven holdalls were discovered along the shore near
Freshwater on the Isle of Wight; when opened they contained GBP53m
worth of cocaine - the biggest haul ever found in UK waters. A
local fishing crew was accused of waiting in the Channel for the
bags to be thrown from a passing cargo ship in an operation
allegedly masterminded by a local scaffolder. The Freshwater Five
is a true story that cuts to the heart of the British judicial
system. Did five men really attempt one of the world's biggest drug
smuggling operations - or were they simply in the wrong place, at
the wrong time? Why did the police hastily alter key surveillance
statements, why were logs blacked out or mysteriously left empty -
and why was crucial evidence never disclosed at trial? All five men
fiercely denied the allegations, but a jury rejected their version
of the events. This is the story of what actually happened as told
by the skipper of the crew. It's a story that reveals the human
misery of brutal prison sentences and a story that leaves the
reader with one question: Does the British legal system really
dispense justice?

There are evil people in the world, and they do evil things to
innocent children. Pastor Butch Gregory is on a fatal collision
course with such evil people. Pastor Butch's life is a happy one,
filled with church meetings, sermon preparation, and leading a
congregation he loves. His life is forever changed when
unimaginable tragedy comes to a little girl from his church named
Tamara. Pastor Butch feels a supernatural call from God to do
something about it, so he sets out on a sprawling adventure to find
and rescue her before it is too late. He is not alone in his
odyssey. Through what can only be called divine intervention,
Pastor Butch finds himself partnered with Amber Smith and Wyoming
Wallace. Amber knows her way around the streets and is dogged in
her pursuit of Tamara. Wyoming is a rough and tumble Iraq War
veteran who wants nothing to do with God, but is nevertheless
drafted into the search. Each of them have their own painful pasts
that tie together with different aspects in their search for the
missing girl. The three of them piece together clues across the
American West in their race against time. The Little Girl Waits to
be saved. Will they find her in time, and at what cost?
