  Sales Pitch by Philip K. Dick - There are pushy salesmen and then there are PUSHY salesmen who refuse to give up... until they make the sale! 
  Commute ships roared on all sides, as Ed Morris made his way wearily home to Earth at the end of a long hard day at the office. The Ganymede-Terra lanes were choked with exhausted, grim-faced businessmen; Jupiter was in opposition to Earth and the trip was a good two hours. Every few million miles the great flow slowed to a grinding, agonized halt; signal-lights flashed as streams from Mars and Saturn fed into the main traffic-arteries. 
  "Lord," Morris muttered. "How tired can you get?" He locked the autopilot and momentarily turned from the control-board to light a much-needed cigarette. His hands shook. His head swam. It was past six; Sally would be fuming; dinner would be spoiled. The same old thing. Nerve-wracking driving, honking horns and irate drivers zooming past his little ship, furious gesturing, shouting, cursing... 
  And the ads. That was what really did it. He could have stood everything else -- but the ads, the whole long way from Ganymede to Earth. And on Earth, the swarms of sales robots; it was too much. And they were everywhere. 
  He slowed to avoid a fifty-ship smashup. Repair-ships were scurrying around trying to get the debris out of the lane. His audio-speaker wailed as police rockets hurried up. Expertly, Morris raised his ship, cut between two slow-moving commercial transports, zipped momentarily into the unused left lane, and then sped on, the wreck left behind. Horns honked furiously at him; he ignored them.

  "A fun, uplifting adventure woven with heart, wisdom, and a dash of discovery...A must-have for families, educators, and therapists working with neurodivergent children." -The Prairies Book Review  
  This audiobook edition of Aydin Stays Safe was created with accessibility in mind. It includes audio descriptions of the illustrations, allowing listeners to fully experience the story’s visuals through detailed narration that highlights safe versus unsafe exploration. 
  Aydin is a sweet boy who loves adventures, especially when he gets to bring his best friend, Sam. But sometimes his curiosity can be dangerous when he isn't safe.  
  Aydin sees the world differently, and he learns differently, too. He might put things in his mouth to understand them better, like a flower. He loves animals, so he might approach a dog, even when it might not be as friendly as Sam. He loves to watch the cars, bikes, and trucks that pass him by, but it's dangerous to get too close.  
  With the help of his trusty canine companion, and of course, his parents, Aydin learns that adventuring is even more fun when everyone stays safe!  
  Aydin Stays Safe was designed with accessibility in mind. With easy-to-read text and side-by-side illustrations that clearly contrast safe versus unsafe exploration, Aydin Stays Safe makes learning fun and engaging for every reader.  
  When author Z.Z. Özra decided to write a picture book, she didn't have to look far for inspiration. Aydin Stays Safe was created for her son who is autistic with additional needs and the story is based on his past experiences. It is a book that she hopes will help other children like Aydin, understand which types of playful exploration are risky or safe.  
  Join Aydin and Sam the poodle as they learn how to explore the world safely-one adventure at a time.

  Do you know what an endangered species is and why animals become endangered?
  
  Who Will Roar if I Go? will introduce you to 13 animals around the world who have one thing in common: they need your help. With rhyming verse, each animal is sharing a message with you that you will remember for a long time.
  
  The King of the Beasts - that's my claim to fame.
  
  I've got a big crown of hair that's called a mane.
  
  You will meet many animals in Africa: the lion, rhinoceros, and gorilla all have something to tell you.
  
  With black-patchy eyes, I'm chubby and cute.
  
  I'm a lazy bear who chews bamboo shoots.
  
  Next visit snow leopard, elephant, and tiger in Asia, quetzal in South America, panda and salamander in China, red-crowned amazon and blue karner butterflies in North America, and the pangolin in Australia. Their message is simple, but very important for you, the stewards of the earth:
  
  We need you to care and let us live free.
  
  Or there will be no more wild animals to see.
  
  Who Will Roar If I Go? will introduce the basics of endangered species to young children and open up conversations of what we can all do to help.
  
  Will you roar before they go?
