  A.A. Milne's first collection of stories about his son's endearing and not-very-bright toy bear and his friends, "Winnie-the-Pooh" is the original source material for one of children's literature's most enduring and beloved characters. Edward Bear (also known as Winnie) is the simple, easy-going companion to young Christopher Robin. He and his friends (Christopher Robin's other stuffed animals - Eeyore the Donkey, Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga and Baby Roo) are the inhabitants of the imaginary Hundred Acre Wood. We follow Pooh Bear as he tries to extract honey from a beehive, overstays his welcome at Rabbit's house, attempts to find Eeyore's missing tail and hunts for the elusive Heffalump.Sweet-natured, full of sly humor and enhanced with illustrations by the original artist, E.H. Shepard, "Winnie-the-Pooh" has remained a classic of children's literature for decades and the characters have been immortalized in countless screen and television adaptations.The stories are presented here in their original and unabridged form.

  Acclaimed nonfiction writer and Sibert Honor winner Gail Jarrow begins her new series on medical fiascoes with an in-depth look at the bloodiest conflict in U.S. history. The Civil War took the lives of more than 600,000 men. Bullet wounds  
  were deadly, but twice as many soldiers died from disease—pneumonia, diarrhea, typhoid fever, measles, and smallpox. Tens of thousands who survived the war were permanently disabled or disfigured. Yet out of this tragedy came medical  
  progress. Doctors and nurses gained valuable experience treating the injured and sick. Military and medical officials recognized that proper sanitation in camps and hospitals could save lives. Improvements to the ambulance service and hospital  
  system lowered the fatality rate. An expert at blending science and history, Jarrow relies heavily on primary documents—first-person accounts and medical case studies—to reveal the true stories behind the battle against wounds and disease.

  This lively peek into the amazing world of microbes, replete with a kid-pleasing "ick" factor, is chock-full of facts and humor. 
   
   
   
  Microbes are everywhere: outside, indoors, on your body, in your body. In fact, only about half of our bodies' cells are human cells—the rest are microbes. Whether helping people digest their food or using mind-control techniques to lure mice into the path of hungry cats (no, really), microbes form an unseen jungle all around us. Through zany facts and interviews with experts in their fields, aspiring young scientists (or kids who just want to be grossed out) will discover a hidden world in which your health depends on a myriad of microbes, houseflies get zombified by fungi, and termites are saving the planet one fart at a time. This "eww"-worthy treasure trove for kids is an engrossing romp into the microbe drama unfolding where you might least expect it.

  In the final book in the Book Uncle trilogy, Anil faces a dilemma when the city decides to build a solar panel factory on the site of a mangrove forest.  
  Anil loves karate, his friends and the solar power project he has been championing in his community. He doesn’t love having to speak up — as his karate sensei says, best fight, no fight. Still, Anil wishes his classmate Mohan would stop picking on him.  
  Then Anil learns where the city is planning to build a new solar panel factory. More sustainable energy is good news — but this factory will threaten plant and animal species and force the village people who live on the land to move. Maybe staying quiet isn’t an option anymore …  
  A class assignment nudges Anil into action. Now he’s a Young Reporter, so why not ask questions about the factory? With help from his friends Yasmin and Reeni, support from his classmates and neighbors, and the right book picks from Book Uncle, can Anil help the city find a solution that works for everyone? And just how loudly will he have to speak up?  
  A triumphant finale to the Book Uncle trilogy about the power of asking the right questions and listening when change comes to your community.
