Shortlisted for Illustrator of the Year - British Book Awards 2025From the internationally best-selling author and illustrator, Mariajo Ilustrajo, comes an interactive page-turner of a picture book. Providing a playful, surprising twist on the classic "unexpected guest" premise, the narrative here is flipped, making humans the unexpected guests in a tale told by mice! The mice living happily under the floorboards of a house find their peace is disturbed by some unexpected guests . . . humans! The mice are curious about their guests and set out to investigate. They find weird and wonderful human objects and lots of food, so they decide their guests might not be so bad after all - until our intrepid mouse narrator finds himself caught in a jar! His friends try to save him but get caught too, and they fear the worst, but they're set free from the jar . . . and into a cardboard Mouse Land. The humans aren't so bad after all! But, for the final twist, the mice discover there is one last gue

The first lie made Lily a savior. The second framed Clara for murder.If it weren't for Lily, Clara would still be a total outcast, shunned for her role in an incident that gave her a criminal record and ruined another girl's life. She's spent the past two years trying to escape that night, and ever since Lily Dalton befriended her, she's almost succeeded. After all, Lily's the golden girl of the high school--smart, popular, beloved by all--and as her best friend, Clara's now the bright, hard-working chemistry whiz.But is Lily really just the good-hearted friend who saved Clara from the past? Because lately Lily has been talking about certain classmates and teachers--about wanting revenge. Do you ever think about making them pay? she asks. How would you do it? Lily has to be joking. At least that's what Clara thinks, until she finds a folder that outlines a deadly plan, including detailed steps and a list of targets in their school.Shockingly, there's even more to Lily's plan, and it ha

AI時代來臨，一人公司成為可能！「想創業要投入很多資金嗎？」不用，用AI就能把試錯成本降到最低！「不懂技術，要怎麼快速產出產品？」沒問題，只要會定義問題，AI就能幫你完美執行！「下班創業，真的有可能嗎？」當然可能，用AI快速驗證，創業不再是豪賭，而是低風險實驗！創業不再需要All In豪賭，用一杯咖啡的代價就能啟動AI時代的一人公司，一台電腦、一個周末，就能開啟你的創業路！■現在，是創業「最安全」的時代！過去，創業是少數人的豪賭；現在，是普通人終於「付得起」第一次嘗試的時代。在傳統觀念裡，創業意味著抵押房產、押上積蓄，一次失誤就可能傾家蕩產。但隨著AI的普及，那個悲壯創業的年代已經結束了。現在，技術不再是門檻，人力不再是負擔，最昂貴的執行成本已被AI降到最低。｜如果你賠得起「一杯咖啡」，你就賠得起一次創業。這是歷史上第一次一般人能以近乎零的成本，在週末驗證腦中的商業點子。就算失敗了，也不是跌入深淵，而是取得通往正確道路的資訊。因為試錯成本極低，你擁有了「不斷重來」的權利。當失敗不再致命，創業便成了史上最安全的一場智力遊戲。■為什麼愈努力的創業者愈容易失敗？當AI的產出速度已超越人類極限，「執行力」早已不再是你的護城河。你是否每天忙著趕進度、修細節，卻離商業成功越來越遠？在AI時代，最可怕的不是不努力，而是用勞力思維去對接科技浪潮。如果你還在親力親為每一項瑣事，你不是在創業，而是在加速透支生命。｜現在，你需要一場「低成本」的決策革命。這本書將成為你的救贖方案：創業不再需要押上身家，更不需傾家蕩產。透過極速試錯，你在週末就能排除錯誤路徑。因此別再用忙碌掩飾決策的失能。讓AI負責執行，你負責定義問題。不用賭上人生，只靠「下對決定」就能贏得未來。■AI創業家想的和你不一樣！傳統創業最讓人恐懼的，莫過於傾家蕩產的風險。但AI創業家的邏輯完全不同：他們拒絕 All-in，主張以最低成本進行極速試錯。如果一個想法不值得一杯咖啡的代價，就不值得投入生命。透過快速排除錯誤路徑，他們不賭命、不梭哈，卻能比任何人都更快撞見正確的商機。｜當一般人還在思考如何「增加人力」，AI創業家已經在練習如何「定義問題」。這群不靠勞力、不靠融資，卻能創造極高產值的「新創業族群」，不追求規模龐大的團隊，而是追求極致精簡的「一人公司」；他們不研發技術，而是運用AI穩定執行，將自己的時間保留給最有價值的「決策

Syaman Rapongan is a chronicler of his people, the Tao, an Indigenous community who live on Orchid Island near the island of Taiwan. In Eyes of the Sky, he invites readers to learn the ways of this oceanic world--and to learn to see their own worlds anew through a Tao lens. Employing oral storytelling conventions, Eyes of the Sky opens by recounting the history of the Tao, from their mythic origins to the present day. Its first chapter is narrated by a giant trevally, a fish common to the waters around Orchid Island. It then tells the stories of three generations of a single family--father, son, and grandson--exploring the transformation of Tao society through their encounters with Han-Taiwanese modernity. Syaman Rapongan paints a vivid picture of his homeland--its mountains and seas, flora and fauna, climate and ecology--as well as local culture and customs. In describing fishing practices, canoe building, and conversations with friends from his village, he illustrates the Tao's ecolo

無層級領導革命來了！一本最具前瞻性與顛覆性的實施手冊。AI能力躍進、工作模式多樣化、人才流動加劇……傳統的金字塔式管理，再也無法應對快速變化的局勢，重新定義職場領導力，讓員工不再聽命行事，能夠主動出擊！當人工智慧重構產業、混合工作模式成為常態、全球局勢瞬息萬變，企業面臨的真相是：轉型的速度，比規模更重要。數位工具正在改寫職場的遊戲規則，但許多組織仍困在舊有框架中。層層上報、事必躬親……傳統的指揮與管制模式，拖累整個決策流程，早已無法因應下一波的商業挑戰。作者提出突破性觀點：釋放每個員工的「內在執行長」。領導力不該由少數高層壟斷，而是要分散到組織各個層級。本書不只是一種理念或願景，更有明確藍圖及實行框架，為領導者和個人提供全面的工具，真正實踐賦權與自主：※三面向模型：了解企業的三大轉型力量──數位關聯性、人員潛力、領導轉變，以實現協作策略。※賦權的三階段：踏入、邁出或提升，引導主管循序漸進地爲員工找到合適階段，提供更多自主權。※五角星評估模型：評估員工在態度、文化、領導力、人際溝通能力和績效等五個層面的潛力。※4E分散式領導模型：探討四個關鍵主題，包括願景、參與、執行、卓越，有助培養領導技能。※九十天發展路徑圖：一份明確且可衡量的行動計畫，確保快速上手。這些被賦予權力與信任的員工，被稱為職務中的執行長（in-role CEO）。他們在獲得心理安全感和充分支持的環境下，對策略和營運做出實質貢獻，他們不用等待批准，而是主動創新並果敢執行。這不意味著要廢除階級制度，相反地，組織結構依然重要，但要從「管理績效」轉為「支持績效」。主管不再是監督者，而是引導員工的教練。當組織解鎖員工的領導潛力，創新不再是會議室裡的空談，決策更貼近顧客需求，回應更即時靈活，這股隱形力量將能驅動企業持續成長。

繼得獎作品《Bear》之後，創作者 Natalia Shaloshvili 再次以溫暖筆觸帶來本書。這一次，主角Bear為了一塊餅乾，展開一連串「如果……怎麼辦」的擔憂。原本開心吃著餅乾的Bear，忽然想到：要是這是最後一塊呢？沒想到真的如此。他急著出門買餅乾，卻一路擔心錯過公車、迷路、排不到隊，而這些「最糟情況」竟一一發生。當最後一塊餅乾被Duck買走時，Bear幾乎認定世界就要崩塌。然而，Duck溫柔地分享餅乾，也分享另一種看法：即使擔心成真，也未必是壞結局。本書以幽默鋪陳焦慮心情，在笑聲中安放不安，是談論情緒與友誼的理想讀本。Bear finds that even when his wildest (cookie-related!) worries come true, things will be okay. Bear Worries is a funny and comforting story providing a unique take on the topic of excessive worrying. This companion title to Natalia Shaloshvili’s award-winning book Bear is a funny and comforting take on how to cope with constant worrying.

At first, Bear is happily munching his cookie, until a thought creeps in: what if it’s the last cookie? When this turns out to be true, he sets off for the shops – and his worries mount and mount.
