Beschreibung

In "Stories of the Gorilla Country, Narrated for Young People," Paul B. Du Chaillu presents a fascinating exploration of the gorilla's habitat and behavior, intricately woven with personal anecdotes from his travels to Africa. The book is characterized by its vivid descriptions and engaging narrative style, combining adventure writing with scientific observation. Du Chaillu's work stands as a significant contribution to both zoological literature and children's literature of the late 19th century, aiming to educate and enthrall young readers with the wonders of the natural world through the lens of the burgeoning field of anthropology. Paul B. Du Chaillu was a pioneering explorer and anthropologist whose passions were ignited by his early encounters with the natural world in Africa. His groundbreaking expeditions in the 1860s, especially his encounters with gorillas, enriched his understanding of wildlife and human cultures. Du Chaillu's dedication to making the complexities of biology accessible and entertaining for younger audiences illustrates his commitment to education and scientific curiosity. This book is highly recommended for readers who are eager to ignite a sense of wonder about the animal kingdom. "Stories of the Gorilla Country" serves not only as an adventure but also as an essential gateway for younger readers to explore themes of ecology, conservation, and the rich tapestry of life that shares our planet.

    The Avenger by Damon Knight - Karson was creating a superman to fight the weird super-monsters who had invaded Earth. But he was forgetting one tiny thing—like calls to like. 
    Peter Karson was dead. He had been dead for some time now, but the dark blood was still oozing from the crushed ruin of his face, trickling down into his sodden sleeve, and falling, drop by slow drop, from his fingertips. His head was tilted over the back of the chair at a queer, unnatural angle, so that the light made deep pools of shadow where his eyes had been. 
    There was no sound in the room except for the small splashing the blood made as it dropped into the sticky pool on the floor. The great banks of machinery around the walls were silent. I knew that they would never come to life again. 
    I rose and walked over to the window. Outside, the stars were as before: tiny, myriad points of light, infinitely far away. They had not changed, and yet they were suddenly no longer friendly. They were cold and alien. It was I who had changed: something inside me was dead, like the machinery, and like Peter. 
    It was a kind of indefinable emptiness. I do not think it was what Peter called an emotion; and yet it had nothing to do with logic, either. It was just an emptiness—a void that could not be filled by eating or drinking. 
    It was not a longing. I had no desire that things should be otherwise than they were. I did not even wish that Peter were not dead, for reason had told me that he had to die. That was the end of it. 
    But the void was still there, unexplainable and impossible to ignore. For the first time in all my life I had found a problem that I could not solve. Strange, disturbing sensations stirred and whispered within me, nagging, gnawing. And suddenly—something moved on the skin of my cheek. I raised a hand to it, slowly. 
    A tear was trickling down my cheek.

Some of his new teammates— including “loud and obnoxious” home-run slugger Jimmie—are mean to him or to each other. His new coach doesn’t tell the players everything to do like his old coach did. And some of the Manatees seem more interested in goofing off than in working hard. Then Coach Joe makes Luis team captain. Will Luis rise to the challenge? Can he get the Manatees to balance working hard and having fun? Will he help his teammates learn to be friends rather than compete? Baseball Buddies explores the power of working together, what it takes to build a team, and the lasting friendships that form on the baseball field.
