Paperback. Zustand: Good. "THIS JUST IN: Boat Swallowed by Ocean Belch . . . Hungry Plant Snaps . . . Earth Grooves to Loony Tunes." Inspired by wacky tabloid headlines, Nature Shockers is an exposé of nature's wonders, a tantalizing accumulation of scandalously true facts. Author Keltie Thomas digs deep for the dirt on baffling landscapes, dives into the dark secrets of the mysterious deep sea, and breaks through the shell of silence around the world of insects. Special features include "Hoax Busters," which test readers' savvy in separating fact from fiction, and "Fiction vs. Reality," comparing Hollywood special effects with the forces of nature. Greg Hall's eye-catching illustrations and punchy tabloid design make this fun for even reluctant readers. Hall, Greg (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. One of the Olympic Games' most popular winter sports, figure skating's appeal lies in its combination of gymnastic grace, athletic accuracy, and creative expression -- with a healthy dash of personal drama mixed in. A new entry in the How Sports Work series, How Figure Skating Works investigates the slippery science behind the sport. With the same grace and joy as skating itself, the book leaps into all aspects of the sport, from its history and dazzling moves to its most famous competitors. Readers learn how certain ice surfaces can improve a skater's performance; how skates allow skaters to glide, twist, stop, and turn with breathtaking ease; skating's most inventive (and strangest) moves; the stories behind the spectacular costumes; how skaters stave off dizzy spells during their stunning spins; and much, much more. Extras like pop-up factoids, tips for improving moves, a rules-and-regulations section, and a glossary with all the need-to-know terms make any reader a master of the sport. MacEachern, Stephen (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Author Keltie Thomas and illustrator Greg Hall team up to look at hockey in a new way: from the perspective of science. Their book explores the all-important science of explosive moves (the slapshot) and maximizing a player's chance of scoring; the science of speedy, powerful skating; the puck, stick, mask, and other equipment; the properties of ice and how skating surfaces are maintained; and the science of fitness and healing injuries. How Hockey Works includes personal stories from the inspirational (the stunning careers of Bobby Orr and Wayne Gretzky) to the hilarious (the puck's origins as an India rubber ball reshaped by a frustrated rink owner). Informative sidebars, a "Rules and Regs" section, and a glossary help make any reader an expert on the game. From casual to obsessed every hockey fan can find something in How Hockey Works. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This is an important book but we don't have time for its young readers to replace those in power. So read this book and then give grown-ups hell and demand something be done. It's your future that's at stake. -- David Suzuki The Earth's oceans are on the rise. Since 1900, global sea levels have risen steadily each year to a global average of about 8 inches (20cm) today, and they're still rising. By 2100, the sea could climb as much as 14 feet (4.3m) to 32 feet (9.75m). Rising Seas: Flooding, Climate Change and Our New World gives youth an eye-popping view of what the Earth might look like under the rising and falling water levels of climate change. Photographs juxtapose the present-day with that same area's projected future. The shocking images will help them understand the urgency for action. Key issues in today's news will be better understood, such as the 2015 Paris Protocol in which the world agreed to limit temperature increases to 2 degrees Celsius (ideally 1.5 degree). Wuthrich, Belle; W., Kath Boake (illustrator). …

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The New York Times bestselling authors of Act Like a Lady and hosts of the LadyGang podcast share their deepest, darkest, most hilarious secrets-along with confessions submitted by real LadyGang fans-in this laugh-out-loud, cringe-worthy, weirdly inspiring celebration of un-ladylike behavior. "So many of us have this hidden shame floating around our brains with no way to let it out without being judged, and that shit weighs us down." Every lady has a secret. A secret so humiliating, embarrassing, scandalous, or disgraceful that you haven't told a soul-not your closest friends, family, lovers, or doctors. There is so much shame surrounding hiding secrets, and, frankly, enough is enough. The truth is, there is power and freedom in releasing those dirty little secrets out into the big, bad universe. It gives you that same sweet relief as taking off an underwire bra at the end of a long, crappy day. That's why Keltie Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jac Vanek-hosts of the LadyGang podcast-set their secrets free: the good, the bad, and the diarrhea. The LadyGang wanted to offer their large and loyal community a chance to join them in exposing the messy truths of their lives, and so, Lady Secrets was born: confessional essays from the trio themselves and an incredible crowdsourced collection of secrets from other ladies around the world. Secrets ranging from silly little white lies to cringey misadventures to soul-baring truths. And as it turns out, exposing your deepest and darkest helps you realize that we are all way more alike than we could have ever imagined. Everyone seems to have a bizarre body malfunction, a hookup gone terribly wrong, and a soul-crushing experience that haunts them forever. And maybe that elaborate revenge plot you carried out against your cheating ex was actually kind of badass (in spite of being slightly illegal).It's time we stop feeling ashamed of our (un)ladylike habits and own the real, raw, and ridiculous things that make you authentically you.…
