In this first young-adult fantasy novel in a trilogy, Alex London launches a soaring saga about the memories that haunt us, the histories that hunt us, and the bonds of blood between us. The people of Uztar have long looked to the sky with hope and wonder. Nothing in their world is more revered than the birds of prey and no one more honored than the falconers who call them to their fists. Brysen strives to be a great falconer—while his twin sister, Kylee, rejects her ancient gifts for the sport and wishes to be free of falconry. She’s nearly made it out, too, but a war is rolling toward their home in the Six Villages, and no bird or falconer will be safe.Together the twins must journey into the treacherous mountains to trap the Ghost Eagle, the greatest of the Uztari birds and a solitary killer. Brysen goes for the boy he loves and the glory he's long craved, and Kylee to atone for her past and to protect her brother's future. But both are hunted by those who seek one thing: power.Prai

How is Jackie supposed to fit into their chaotic world when she needs to keep her parents’ memory alive by living up to the promise of perfect?But as Jackie spends more time the Walter boys, she begins to wonder if the perfection she’s always worked for isn’t the only way to find love after all.

Paws is tired. He just wants to rest. And to dream about the days when he used to chase rabbits. He still walks with Edward to the park twice a day, but only because Edward needs the fresh air. Until one day, Paws decides he doesn't want to go for another walk. He just wants to lie in Edward's bed. ?Paws has walked and walked. His paws are heavy. Paws doesn't have to walk anymore. Paws doesn't have to do anything anymore.? And Paws falls asleep one last time, leaving Edward to dream of the days when Paws used to chase rabbits. Espen Dekko's gently heartbreaking and heart-lifting story hits the perfect note as it explores death in an accessible, child-friendly, and nonfrightening way.

本書以輕巧幽默的方式，講述 Hedgehog 在冬天來臨前，一心只想占據整片樹籬，不願與任何動物共享。他忙著設立告示牌、加裝鎖頭、築起高高的圍籬，只為確保這裡只屬於自己。相較之下，其他動物彼此協助：蚯蚓和土撥鼠同住地底，負鼠與狐狸共用洞穴，鳥兒和松鼠一起待在橡樹上。大家都在努力找住處，只有 Hedgehog 把所有人拒之門外。然而，固守並沒有帶來真正的安心，反而讓他錯過了溫暖與支持。在冬天越來越近的時刻，他才逐漸明白，孤立無法帶來安全，共享反而能讓生活變得更好。以動物寓言呈現合作與共存的概念輕鬆有趣，適合親子共讀與討論讓孩子思考「保護自己」與「排斥他人」之間的差別Hedgehog is hogging the hedge and won't let the other animals live there. In this humorous political allegory, he learns that it's not a winning strategy.Winter is coming, and the animals need homes. The worms move in with the ground hogs. The possums share a burrow with the foxes. The birds and the squirrels stay in the oak tree together. The hedgehog lives in the hedge . . . all by himself. When other animals come looking for a place to stay, he's NOT interested: it's HIS hedge and everyone else can STAY OUT. He gets busy making signs, putting locks on his door and even building a fence. All he cares about is keeping the other animals out... but he's making a huge mistake. Will the other animals find a h

The perfect picture book for children who have discovered the power of the word "NO"!Ned the knight ALWAYS does exactly what he's told. When his parents ask him to pick up his toys, dig up the cabbages or go to bed on time, he does it all with a smile. And when the dragon swoops into town every night, he always runs inside just as he's asked.But one morning, instead of saying,"yes," he says, "NO!" He will NOT help his dad find his shield, his arrow or his bow, and he will certainly NOT let the butcher go past. That night, he refuses to go inside, and in doing so he confronts the dragon, making a very unlikely friend . .. This rambunctious, rhyming picture book is a brilliantly observed portrait of children's behaviour, with vibrant, detailed illustrations by the enormously talented Kate Hindley.

Gerta knows it is dangerous to watch the wall, to think forbidden thoughts of freedom, yet she can't help herself. She sees the East German soldiers with their guns trained on their own citizens; she, her family, her neighbors and friends are prisoners in their own city.But one day, while on her way to school, Gerta spots her father on a viewing platform on the western side, pantomiming a peculiar dance. Then, when she receives a mysterious drawing, Gerta puts two and two together and concludes that her father wants Gerta and Fritz to tunnel beneath th

What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively.

As years pass by, the "Antichrist Beast System" is slowly "emerging" upon us and around us. But are the true followers of Christ seeing the signs? Sadly, the answer is no. The Bible clearly explains the signs that are to appear on Earth before the Second Coming of the Messiah (Yahusha HaMashiach). In the Book of Matthew, the first thing Christ said to his disciples when they asked for the "sign" of his second coming and the "end of the world" was......"LET NO MAN DECEIVE YOU". In today's world, technology, music, TV programming, religious false doctrines, sexual perversions and convenience seem to be keeping the "Masses" in a state of slumber. This is what Satan wants. For people to be like "Sheeple", easy to capture, easy to "fatten up" and when the time is right, easy to be led to the slaughter. But there is a remnant of the "True Followers" of the Messiah that are waking up. These are the people who seek to endure to the end, worshipping God in "Spirit" and "Truth". But in order for

President Donald J. Trump lays out his professional and personal worldview in this classic work—a firsthand account of the rise of America's foremost deal-maker.';I like thinking big. I always have.To me it's very simple: If you're going to be thinking anyway, you might as well think big.'—Donald J. TrumpHere is Trump in action—how he runs his organization and how he runs his life—as he meets the people he needs to meet, chats with family and friends, clashes with enemies, and challenges conventional thinking. But even a maverick plays by rules, and Trump has formulated time-tested guidelines for success.He isolates the common elements in his greatest accomplishments; he shatters myths; he names names, spells out the zeros, and fully reveals the deal-maker's art. And throughout, Trump talks—really talks—about how he does it. Trump: The Art of the Deal is an unguarded look at the mind of a brilliant entrepreneur—the ultimate read for anyone interested in the man behind the spotlight.Pra

在 Mac and Mac 的世界裡，什麼問題都能被荒唐的想法解決。兩兄弟腦袋空空，常被朋友耍得團團轉，連派都吃不到完整的一份。為了逃避鋪床，他們竟異想天開跑去睡在床下；為了爭一口派，又鬧出一堆笑話。全書採用漫畫風敘事，文字幽默、插圖誇張，讓孩子們讀來哈哈大笑。這種結合打鬧與民間故事元素的創作，也讓讀者在娛樂之餘，重新看見民間故事的創意詮釋。Mac and Mac, who love pie and hate making their beds, are hollow-headed. "See in here? Nothing! Zippo! Nada!" Mac explains. That’s why they get duped by their friend Meatball and fooled out of their fair shares of apple pie. Slapstick humor, puns and wacky fun abound as the empty-headed duo comes up with outlandish solutions for everyday problems, such as sleeping under their beds to avoid ever having to make them again. Written in a comic-book style, this book will have young readers rolling on the floor, and educators rethinking their approaches to folklore.
