Book excerpt: Now a Netflix film starring Florence Pugh: In this “old-school page turner” (Stephen King, New York Times Book Review) by the bestselling author of Room, an English nurse is brought to a small Irish village to observe what appears to be a miracle—a girl said to have survived without food for months—and soon finds herself fighting to save the child's life. Tourists flock to the cabin of eleven-year-old Anna O'Donnell, who believes herself to be living off manna from heaven, and a journalist is sent to cover the sensation. Lib Wright, a veteran of Florence Nightingale's Crimean campaign, is hired to keep watch over the girl. Written with all the propulsive tension that made Room a huge bestseller, The Wonder works beautifully on many levels -- a tale of two strangers who transform each other's lives, a powerful psychological thriller, and a story of love pitted against evil. Acclaim for The Wonder: "Deliciously gothic.... Dark and vivid, with complicated characters, this is a novel that lodges itself deep" (USA Today, 3/4 stars) "Heartbreaking and transcendent"(New York Times) "A fable as lean and discomfiting as Anna's dwindling body.... Donoghue keeps us riveted" (Chicago Tribune) "Donoghue poses powerful questions about faith and belief" (Newsday)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word "science" carries a suggestion sufficient to render a book so labeled taboo to the average reader. But here is a book of genuine science which the most timid may read with delight; for perhaps Fabre never shows his greatness more than through the simplicity of his diction. In this work he imparts great facts about things which are familiar to the sight, but not to the understanding, of most of us. Light, sound, electricity, the locomotive, extinct volcanoes, condensation and evaporation, prehistoric animals, grafting and the sea -- these and many other subjects are dealt with in a simple narrative style as thrilling as the most exciting novel, only with this difference: how infinitely richer we are when we turn the last page of this book, and how infinitely more the world means to us. Fabre opens our eyes."Full of fascination and models of scientific method." -- Times"The patience and the nicety of M. Fabre?s observations are indeed amazing. His eyes see, and they see magical marvels.'' -- Daily Express

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second book in a four-book series exploring the elements, Wonders of Nature: Natural Phenomena in Science and Myth, looks at the wonder of air from both a scientific and mythical perspective. Intended for teachers and librarians to use with students in intermediate and middle school grades, the book looks at natural phenomena that occurs in the air around us—such as rainbows, snow, tornadoes, lightning, and thunder—through ancient myth, and details the explanations of modern-day science. With this interdisciplinary approach, students will be encouraged to appreciate the magic in both myth and science, and to understand the commonality of human experience with nature over time. Each book contains eight myths, each from a different culture, and accompanying scientific explanation to use with students. Included are bibliographies; recommended Web sites; ideas for field trips, student projects, discussion, and activities; and illustrations and diagrams that will enhance student interest. Grades 4-8.
