A young Asian boy notices that his eyes look different from his peers' after seeing his friend's drawing of them. After talking to his father, the boy realizes that his eyes rise to the skies and speak to the stars, shine like sunlit rays, and glimpse trails of light from those who came before-in fact, his eyes are like his father's, his agong's, and his little brother's, and they are visionary. Inspired by the men in his family, he recognizes his own power and strength from within. This extraordinary picture book redefines what it means to be truly you.

In the first book in the epic Lamb among the Stars series, author Chris Walley weaves the worlds of science and the spirit, technology and supernatural into something unique in science fiction. Twelve thousand years into the future, the human race has spread across the galaxy to hundreds of terraformed worlds. The effects of the Fall have been diminished by the Great Intervention, and peace and contentment reign under the gentle rule of the Assembly. But suddenly, almost imperceptibly, things begin to change. On the remotest planet of Farholme, Forester Merral D’Avanos hears one simple . . . lie. Slowly a handful of men and women begin to realize that evil has returned and must be fought. What will this mean for a people to whom war and evil are ancient history? Thus begins the epic that has been described as “If C. S. Lewis and Tolkien had written Star Wars.” The Shadow and Night was previously published in two volumes: The Shadow at Evening and The Power of the Night.

Not many people can say their career has placed them center stage at as many historical happenings as Christy Bowe can. Bowe has photographed four presidents throughout their administrations, has captured the horrors of 9/11, and photographed three historical impeachments as well. Today, she is founder of ImageCatcher News Services, and her work can be found in prominent publications such as The New York Times and Rolling Stone. Now she aims her lens at the 46th President of the United States of America, Joe Biden. After being kicked out of Catholic school as a child, Bowe found her passion in capturing human moments in the biggest events. As 'Eyes That Speak' shares snapshots of significant moments in Bowe's career, she recounts the hardships and lessons that came from each, and their influence on her style and her photography. Her passion and warmth come through as she narrates the interactions and personal experiences that have altered her as a human and shaped her philosophy as a photographer. Christy Bowe is a passionate, determined photojournalist who never lost the fire that got her kicked out of Catholic school. 'Eyes That Speak' is a loving retelling of not just her experience as a photojournalist but of the kindness and compassion rampant in even the most competitive and high staked working environment. Her book is a reminder that humans are kinder than we know.

Can you imagine not being able to speak or communicate? The silence, the loneliness, the pain. But, inside you disappear to magical places, and even meet your best friend there. However, most of the time you remain imprisoned within the isolation. Waiting, longing, hoping. Until someone realises your potential and discovers your key, so your unlocking can begin. Now you are free, flying like a wild bird in the open sky. A voice for the voiceless. Jonathan Bryan has severe cerebral palsy, a condition that makes him incapable of voluntary movement or speech. He was locked inside his own mind, aware of the outside world but unable to fully communicate with it until he found a way by using his eyes to laboriously choose individual letters, and through this make his thoughts known. In Eye can Write, we read of his intense passion for life, his mischievous sense of fun, his hopes, his fears and what it's like to be him. This is a powerful book from an incredible young writer whose writing ability defies age or physical disability - a truly inspirational figure. Foreword by Sir Michael Morpurgo A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to Jonathan Bryan's charity, Teach Us Too. http://www.teachustoo.org.uk/
