Sinossi

In "The Boy Scouts of the Geological Survey," Robert Shaler intricately weaves an engaging narrative that marries adventure with scientific exploration. Through the eyes of a group of young scouts, Shaler captures the spirit of curiosity and camaraderie in the natural world, all while grounding the story in the rich context of early 20th-century geology. The prose is both accessible and informative, seamlessly embedding geological principles within thrilling exploits, thus appealing to both young readers and those interested in environmental science. Robert Shaler, a distinguished geologist and educator, brings his extensive knowledge of earth sciences to this work, seamlessly integrating his passion for geology with a love for storytelling. His experiences in the field and his dedication to educating future generations about the wonders of nature undoubtedly influenced his writing. Shaler'Äôs aim was not only to entertain but to inspire a deeper appreciation for geology and the environment among youth, showcasing the intersection of scientific inquiry and adventure. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Boy Scouts of the Geological Survey" to readers of all ages. This book serves as a delightful introduction to geology, making complex concepts relatable through engaging storytelling and vivid descriptions. It is an essential read for young adventurers and budding scientists, encouraging them to explore the world around them with curiosity and respect.

    Distress Signal by Ross Rocklynne - Marooned! On the cold satellite of a dying sun, light-years away from home.... For Rex there was only one escape. But Carl called it murder! 
    The years passed relentlessly, ticked off—one, two three, four—by the big lone planet Worta as it moved with ponderous sureness around the dying red star. Sometimes, in the first year after they were marooned, the two runaway boys, Carl Wyant and Rex Oberling, crawled from the grottoes, chambers and labyrinthine tunnels which the Wortans had driven deep beneath the planet's crust, and with a chill lonesomeness looked out into the vastness of space where the stars brooded. One of those stars, thirty-five light-years away, was Sol, around which swung the planet Earth! They could not think of Earth without a brightness coming to their eyes. 
    Sometimes the younger boy, then seventeen, would whisper, "I wish we'd never left home, Carl." 
    And Carl would say, "But we left. So let's take our medicine like men." 
    Yes, their leaving home, leaving their parents, their friends, their whole world, could not be changed. Yet it seemed to them that their punishment was out of all proportion to their crime. Thinking back on it, Carl Wyant no longer remembered the petty grievance against his parents which made him decide to run away. 
    Mainly, of course, it had been because his father dropped his keys to the interstellar space-ship he had recently requisitioned from the Space Council. Both Carl and his buddy, Rex, the young fellow who lived next door and belonged to the same Scout Troop, had been caught up with the idea of visiting the stars, without parental supervision. To visit the stars! That was a thrilling thought. 
    At first they planned to be gone a month.

    This is the Māori language edition of Tāwhaki: The Deeds of a Demigod. The book recalls the miraculous life of Tāwhaki. Similar to Māui, Tāwhaki was a demigod who possessed mighty powers. Tāwhaki almost died at the hands of his brothers-in-law but was found by his wife Hine-piripiri and revived. This near-death experience revealed Tāwhaki's status as a demigod, and from this point Tāwhaki continued to use his powers and gifts to help those around him in ways no human could. This book explores many of these stories, including those of Tāwhaki restoring sight to his blind grandmother and climbing the heavens to find his wife and child.
