A Dingo Ate My Math Book presents ingenious, unusual, and beautiful nuggets of mathematics with a distinctly Australian flavor. It focuses, for example, on Australians' love of sports and gambling, and on Melbourne's iconic, mathematically inspired architecture. Written in a playful and humorous style, the book offers mathematical entertainment as well as a glimpse of Australian culture for the mathematically curious of all ages. This collection of engaging stories was extracted from the Maths Masters column that ran from 2007 to 2014 in Australia's Age newspaper. The maths masters in question are Burkard Polster and Marty Ross, two (immigrant) Aussie mathematicians, who each week would write about math in the news, providing a new look at old favorites, mathematical history, quirks of school mathematics—whatever took their fancy. All articles were written for a very general audience, with the intention of being as inviting as possible and assuming a minimum of mathematical background.

Philip Andrews arrives on the mission field with outwardly impeccable credentials. He's a preacher's kid and a lifelong evangelical Protestant who has been recruited to teach the seventh and eighth grade children of missionaries in the Philippines. What none of the missionaries who welcome him to Ilusan know is that he's also been expelled from Bible college for his relationship with the daughter of a prominent evangelist. Despite his shoulder-length hair, which causes him to be mistaken for both a woman and Jesus before he's been at the mission center for twenty-four hours, Philip's easy-going charm and skill at speaking "evangelicalese" soon win him a following, especially among the school children. But is Philip a bad seed, a wolf in sheep's clothing? Or is he an earnest seeker simply trying to find his way? Before this hilarious novel, which one evangelical literary agent said would never be published, reaches its shocking conclusion, every missionary at Ilusan and Philip himself will have to answer that question.

Two years after losing his baby brother, 13-year-old Caleb only wants a home that feels warm and friendly, not cold and vacant, and a mother who will be there for him. But just as he starts to recover from his grief, a strange man tries to kill Caleb too, plunging him into a desperate search for answers. The strangeness, however, just gets deeper. Ethereal lights beckon Caleb down a twisted path, leading—at last— to the most bizarre sight of all: a purple monster from his early childhood nightmares. Even crazier, the thing wants to be his friend. The monster tells Caleb that the true enemy, if unopposed, will destroy both of their worlds. The monster wants Caleb to join him on an epic quest. Caleb initially resists the warning, but his recent brush with death forces him to reconsider. Soon he finds himself in an alien world that is equal parts wonder and peril, in which the real and the imaginary become hard to tell apart. Can Caleb trust the monster? Is Caleb losing his mind? What will happen to Earth if the mission fails? The Ghosts of Chimera is a YA fantasy novel. If you enjoy haunting suspense, magical realism, and characters that stay with you after the book is done, you will love this book by L.E. Henderson. Download this book today
