Jake’s mum is not like most mums. Say there's a skip in the
street, most mums will pass right by without a second glance. Not
Jake’s mum. “Look at this, Jake!” she'll shout. “We must
have this! We must have this, too! And we simply must have this!”
That’s Jake’s mum for you. She’s a must-have mum. So when
Jake’s mum upcycles every last thing in their flat, Jake begins
to worry that the only thing left to change is . . . him! A
heart-warming story about the unbreakable bond between a mother and
her son, and a little boy who learns that he is perfect just the
way he is.
How Many Hairs On a Grizzly Bear? And Other Big Questions about Numbers
introduces children to a world of fascinating information about the
infinite world of numbers.
Through vibrant, playful illustrations and fact-packed but witty text,
the book explores the answers to questions such as How many leaves on
an oak tree?, How many stars in the Milky Way?, and How many stones in
the Great Pyramid of Giza?, and covers a wide range of subjects,
including animals, the human body, engineering, and Earth and space.
Written by Tracy Turner, the book begins with small, easily observable
numbers before building up to truly gigantic ones, like a nonillion, a
tredecillion, a googol, and even ones too huge for names!
Includes an introduction by Kjartan Poskitt, author of the bestselling
Murderous Math series.

Sona Sharma combats climate change. When Sona learns about the
climate crisis at school and is very worried that no one is doing
enough to combat it, she takes up the challenge herself. But Appa
isn't amused when Sona throws out her baby sister's nappies and
Thatha isn't happy when she tells him to get rid of his
colour-coded plastic files. When Sona learns that many of the
kolams - the traditional art that people draw in front of their
homes to celebrate the winter months and the festival season - are
not organic, she sets out to make some big changes by getting
everyone involved.
