This charming story presents a new way for young children to
understand how to creatively embrace who they are, no matter what
others think. Carla's lunch box is filled with odd delights like
the Olive, Pickle and Green Bean Sandwich, the
Banana-Cottage-Cheese Delight, and the unforgettable Chopped Liver,
Potato Chips, and Cucumber Combo. To Carla, they are delicious and
creative lunches, but her teasing classmates are unconvinced and
abandon her at the lunch table to eat her bizarre sandwiches alone.
One day, however, tables turn when Buster--the worst tease of
all--forgets his lunch on the day of the picnic and Carla
thoughtfully offers him her extra sandwich. Her own spirited nature
helps Carla teach her classmates that "unusual" can actually be
good. Lively illustrations help showcase the book's messages of
acceptance, tolerance, individuality, and creativity, and the funny
plot and authentic dialogue are sure to make this tale a favorite
among elementary school children. Carla's creative sandwich
solutions provide young chefs-to-be with the inspiration to create
sandwich masterpieces of their own.

PV has traditionally been used for electric power in space. Solar
panels on spacecraft are usually the sole source of power to run
the sensors, active heating and cooling, and communications.
Photovoltaics for Space: Key Issues, Missions and Alternative
Technologies provides an overview of the challenges to efficiently
produce solar power in near-Earth space and beyond: the materials
and device architectures that have been developed to surmount these
environmental and mission-specific barriers. The book is organized
in four sections consisting of detailed introductory and background
content as well as a collection of in-depth space environment,
materials processing, technology, and mission overviews by
international experts. This book will detail how to design and
optimize a space power system's performance for power-to-weight
ratio, effectiveness at end of operational life (EOL) compared to
beginning of operational life (BOL), and specific mission
objectives and goals. This book outlines the knowledge required for
practitioners and advanced students interested in learning about
the background, materials, devices, environmental challenges,
missions, and future for photovoltaics for space exploration.
