  In 1919, six adventurous Brownies—Lulu, Minnie, Lottie, Agatha, Bernadette, and Beryl—discover an old lantern in Ashdown Forest with a cryptic riddle etched into its base: "Seek where the raven guards the past, beneath the stones where shadows last." Following clues to a raven-haunted monolith and a hidden stone circle, they unearth an 1859 surveyor’s journal and smuggler’s treasure. The journal leads them to a legendary healing spring, where they witness its miraculous properties first hand. Their findings attract local historians, revealing the lantern’s ties to forest wardens and Napoleonic-era smugglers. Celebrated as junior historians, the girls return their discoveries to the village museum, proud to have preserved a piece of Sussex’s past. As they gather around their campfire, the restored lantern’s glow reminds them that the forest still holds secrets waiting to be uncovered—and their next adventure is just beginning.

  "So wherever I am, there's always Pooh, There's always Pooh and Me." Filled with gentle humor and playful rhythms, this delightful collection of poetry captures the simple joys, adventure, and heartfelt innocence of a child's tender years. Christopher Robin, Winnie the Pooh, and all of their friends show that there is still much magic to be found in the world, even in the simplest things. This poetry for children covers a wide range of subjects and emotions. Do not be misled by the title of the book, as A. A. Milne states in his introduction "the name of the book doesn’t mean that this is us being six all the time, but that it is about as far as we’ve got at present". As always, Mr. Milne's poetry has rhymes with meter and rhythm that are pleasing to both children and adults.

  The Crawlers - When Humanity...

  Philip K. Dick

  They were born near the radiation lab—soft, crawling, half-human things that no one wanted to claim as children. At first there were only a few, then dozens, then enough that cars began running over them on lonely highways and farmers started moving away in fear. Ernest Gretry is sent from Washington to quietly “take care of the problem,” but when he sees the creatures up close—building, learning, forming a colony—he realizes the real threat isn’t simply that they exist, but how fast they are changing. They don’t walk. They don’t speak. But they think. And they build. 
  What begins as a cleanup operation turns into a moral nightmare as parents must decide whether to hand over their own mutated children, towns collapse under anxiety and silence, and the crawlers continue to grow their underground city—spreading, tunneling, preparing. The story starts as body horror and ends as something closer to cosmic inevitability. If humanity hoped to contain the mutants, it may already be too late… because the crawlers have plans of their own. 
  “The Crawlers” is classic Philip K. Dick: a brutal, thought-provoking collision of science fiction, paranoia, and social commentary written long before most readers were ready to face its ideas. Dick asks the hard question beneath every “invasion” story—what if the new species isn’t invading… what if it’s replacing us? 
  Philip K. Dick (1928–1982) reshaped science fiction by treating it as a laboratory for what-ifs about identity, perception, government power, and the fragile nature of reality. His novels and stories became the foundation for films like Blade Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report, The Adjustment Bureau, and A Scanner Darkly. His work has been adapted into TV series, taught in universities, and debated by philosophers and futurists.

  Russian Folk Fairy Tales is a wonderful collection of the most famous Russian fairy tales. The "Russian skazki" ("skazatz" means to tell) are the mass of folk-tales distributed widely throughout all the Russias. Handed down, by constant repetition, from generation to generation, a possession common to peasant's hut and Prince's palace from a time when history did not exist, they are to-day, from Archangel to the Black Sea, and from Siberia to the Baltic, almost as much a part of the life of the people as the language itself.

  Mammalogy - Mammals: Exploring...

  Mammals, the dominant group of warm-blooded vertebrates on Earth today, have a deep evolutionary history that stretches back over 300 million years. Their origins can be traced to the synapsids, a group of amniotes that first appeared in the late Carboniferous period. These early synapsids were distinct from reptiles and birds, possessing a single temporal fenestra, an opening in the skull that allowed for stronger jaw muscles. Over millions of years, synapsids diversified into a variety of forms, some of which gave rise to the therapsids, the direct ancestors of modern mammals. 
  During the Permian period, therapsids became the dominant terrestrial vertebrates, developing more advanced characteristics such as differentiated teeth, a more upright posture, and improved metabolic efficiency. However, the Permian-Triassic extinction event, the most severe mass extinction in Earth's history, led to a significant decline in their diversity. Those that survived continued to evolve, giving rise to cynodonts, a subgroup of therapsids that displayed increasingly mammal-like features. Cynodonts had more complex teeth, enhanced jaw mechanics, and possibly even fur, adaptations that would later define true mammals.
