  How to Live on 24 Hours a Day

  Written at the height of the early twentieth century, How to Live on 24 Hours a Day remains one of the clearest and most quietly demanding books ever written about time, attention, and personal responsibility. 
  Arnold Bennett begins with a simple, unavoidable truth: every person—regardless of status, wealth, or circumstance—is granted the same twenty-four hours each day. What distinguishes a fulfilled life from a diminished one, he argues, is not how we work, but how we use the hours that remain once work is done. 
  With calm authority and practical insight, Bennett challenges the habit of surrendering evenings to fatigue, distraction, or idle routine. He urges listeners to reclaim their non-working hours for thought, learning, reflection, and deliberate self-development—without abandoning ordinary life or demanding drastic change. His guidance is measured, humane, and realistic, rooted in the belief that steady mental discipline, practiced daily, transforms existence more reliably than bursts of ambition. 
  Narrated with clarity and restraint by LaVel Lane, this audiobook offers a timeless meditation on living deliberately within the constraints of modern life. Free of slogans or hype, How to Live on 24 Hours a Day speaks directly to anyone who has ever felt busy yet unfulfilled—and quietly insists that a richer life is already within reach.

  Atomic Days - The Untold Story...

  Once home to the United States's largest plutonium production site, the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Washington State is laced with 56 million gallons of radioactive waste. The threat of an explosive accident at Hanford is all too real—an event that could be more catastrophic than Chernobyl. 
   
    
   
  The EPA designated Hanford the most toxic place in America; it is also the most expensive environmental clean-up job the world has ever seen, with a $677 billion price tag that keeps growing. Huge underground tanks, well past their life expectancy and full of boiling radioactive gunk, are leaking, infecting groundwater supplies and threatening the Columbia River. 
   
   
   
  Whistleblowers are now speaking out, hoping their pleas can help bring attention to the dire situation at Hanford. Aside from a few feisty community groups and handful of Indigenous activists, there is very little public scrutiny of the clean-up process, which is managed by the Department of Energy and carried out by contractors with shoddy track records, like Bechtel. In the context of renewed support for atomic power as a means of combating climate change, Atomic Days provides a much-needed refutation of the myths of nuclear technology—from weapons to electricity—and shines a spotlight on the ravages of Hanford and its threat to communities, workers, and the global environment.

  Katie the Koala Is Special Too is a gentle, heart‑warming children’s story about self‑belief, individuality, and discovering what makes each of us special. When Katie the koala wakes up feeling unhappy, she begins to compare herself to the other animals around her. She can’t fly like Gary the galah, jump like Kathy the kangaroo, swim like Peggy the platypus, run fast like Eddie the emu, or look as colourful as Peter the peacock. Feeling sad and unimportant, Katie believes she isn’t good at anything at all.  
  Everything changes when a small but wise lady beetle helps Katie see the truth: every animal is different, and every animal has their own special strengths. Through gentle conversation and simple examples, Katie learns that koalas are clever, capable, and excellent climbers—and that being different is what makes her special.  
  Written in clear, engaging language and featuring familiar Australian animals, this story encourages young readers to embrace their unique abilities, appreciate others, and develop confidence and self‑esteem. Katie the Koala Is Special Too is ideal for early childhood readers and classroom discussions about wellbeing, inclusion, and celebrating individuality.
