Sinopsis

When inventive Corin tweaks his grandfather’s drilling rig into a transparent soil core viewer, he and his friend Ayla unveil a hidden universe beneath their feet. Lowering their high-tech capsule, they witness earthworms aerating loam, clay layers preserving ancient pollen, and gravel beds channeling groundwater. Using homemade tensiometers and litmus strips, they chart moisture and pH—revealing how soil governs which plants thrive. When nearby construction begins to compact precious topsoil, Corin and Ayla present their stunning footage at a town council meeting, inspiring new protections. “Journey Under Soil” invites readers ages 5–10 to explore the dynamic world beneath each seed, stream, and soul.

    When young fans think of football, names like Messi, Ronaldo, Bellingham, Salah, Haaland, and Mbappé often come to mind. But there's an incredible story right here in our own backyard.  
    The Goals That Changed Australia by David Weiner isn’t a tale of fantasy, conjured up in imagination or played out on a PlayStation screen. This real-life adventure shares the incredible journey of Australia’s national teams, blending the stories of our Matildas and the Socceroos and their biggest stars into one compelling narrative. 
    Designed for readers from upper primary to teenage years – and maybe even their parents, it offers a fresh and engaging perspective on our football heritage. 
    With moments like Cortnee Vine’s and John Aloisi’s iconic penalties as its cornerstone, the book takes young fans on an exhilarating ride through the highs and lows of Australian football from 2006 to 2023, culminating in the home FIFA Women's World Cup that stopped a nation. It’s a celebration of our unique identity on the world stage—not just as a men’s or women’s team, but as a united football family. 
    This is Australian football's story, told for the first time in a way that young fans can connect with—a tale of resilience, pride, and the love of the game that runs deep in our veins, that aims to inspire the next generation to cheer for the green and gold with the same enthusiasm as they do for the world's biggest stars. 
    Suitable for readers from upper primary school.

    The Cosmic Express - The Jungle...

    In a glass-roofed New York of 2432, where climate is controlled and breakfast arrives at the push of a button, Eric Stokes-Harding makes his living writing about savage jungles and fearless men. His readers crave danger from a safe distance. He and his new wife crave something more. They are tired of comfort. Tired of safety. Tired of living under glass. 
    When a revolutionary device called the Cosmic Express offers the impossible—instant transport by converting matter into radiant energy—they see their chance. Venus, still wrapped in rain and primordial forest, promises everything civilization has erased. No crowds. No machines. No waiting for permission to live. They will build fires with their hands. Hunt their food. Sleep beneath alien trees. They will become the heroes Eric invents on the page. 
    What they find instead is mud that swallows their steps, rain that never stops, and a jungle that does not care about romance. Tools must be made before sunset. Shelter must stand before the storm strengthens. And somewhere in the dark, something large is moving. 
    Jack Williamson delivers a sharp, ironic adventure that feels startlingly modern. Beneath the humor lies a pointed question: what happens when the fantasy of “natural life” collides with the actual demands of survival? The Cosmic Express moves quickly, but its landing is unforgettable. 
    Jack Williamson (1908–2006) began publishing in the late 1920s and became one of the defining architects of American science fiction. His work appeared in magazines such as Amazing Stories, Astounding, and Wonder Stories. He later wrote landmark novels including The Legion of Time and the Legion of Space series, and he continued publishing fiction for decades. The Cosmic Express showcases his early blend of speculative science, satire, and brisk storytelling—qualities that would shape a career spanning nearly eighty years.
