  Ice hockey is perhaps the most unique sport ever created. It is one of the few team sports played on ice, and the athletes that play the game have to train very differently compared to most other sports. Hockey players need to master not only going forwards but going backward as well. 
  No other sport has changed as much as ice hockey has. From the evolution of goalie techniques, the design of the skates, and the materials used to make the sticks, this game has certainly gone through many phases. In this book, Adam Rothstein goes through the history of the game, the rules, his hockey journey, and how you can become a ref, coach, or player. This audiobook was created to grow the sport of hockey.

  On Israel's West Bank, a cat sneaks into a Palestinian house that has been commandeered by two Israeli soldiers. The house seems empty, until the cat realizes that a little boy is hiding beneath the floorboards. 
   
   
   
  Should she help him? After all, she's just a cat. Or is she? 
   
   
   
  It turns out that this cat is not used to thinking about anyone but herself. She was once a regular American girl who only had to deal with normal middle-school problems. 
   
   
   
  But that was before she died and came back to life as a cat, in a place with a whole different set of rules for survival. 
   
   
   
  When the little boy is discovered, the soldiers don't know what to do with him. Where are the child's parents? Why has he been left alone? It is not long before his teacher and classmates come looking for him, and the house is suddenly surrounded by Palestinian villagers throwing rocks, and the sound of Israeli tanks approaching. 
   
   
   
  Not my business, thinks the cat. And then she sees a photograph, and suddenly she understands what happened to the boy's parents, and why they have not returned. And as the soldiers begin to panic, and disaster seems certain, she knows that it is up to her to diffuse the situation. 
   
   
   
  But what can a cat do?

  Nelly's Hospital (1865) is a short story by Louisa May Alcott, written during or shortly after the American Civil War. Nelly, a small soul, starts an hospital for little creatures and animals, inspired by the happenings on the war front, and wants to do some good. 
   
  Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) was an American novelist. She is best known for the novels Little Women, published in 1868, and Little Men. Due to the family's poverty, she began work at an early age as an occasional teacher, seamstress, governess, domestic helper, and writer - her first book was Flower Fables (1854). As she grew older, she developed as both an abolitionist and a feminist. A lesserknown part of her work are the passionate, fiery novels and stories she wrote, usually under the pseudonym A. M. Barnard, such as A Long Fatal Love Chase (1866). Alcott also produced moralistic and wholesome stories for children, and a semi-autobiographical tale Work (1873). In her later life, Alcott became an advocate of women's suffrage and was part of a group of female authors during the Gilded Age to address women's issues in a modern and candid manner. Despite worsening health, Alcott wrote through the rest of her life. 
   
  Lyssa Browne makes her home in Seattle where she works as a voice actor, performs in regional theatre companies, as well as acts for TV and film. Her voice can be heard as many different characters in a variety of video games and audiobooks, and as the narrator of documentaries for the Discovery Channel and others.
