Sinopse

Cody And The Frack-Attack Pack
Whoever Thought Stopping Fracking Could Be So Doggone Fun?
Things are getting pretty "ruff" in old Timberton tonight...
Chesapuke NRG has targeted Timberton for its next round of foolhardy fracking. Their Heads of Business have dispatched the nefarious (and very warty) Chinny Finster (and his rotten henchmen) to convince the townsfolk to lease their land for their mineral rights. Chinny is planning one hell of a show (a razzmatazzy town meeting) to do just that.
But Cody, a frisky chocolate lab, and his pack of canine crusaders, have no intention of letting this environmental degradation defile their home. Now they must fight Chesapuke's propaganda machine with one of their own. Upon hearing of Chinny's upcoming sales presentation, our mutley crew whips up a sobering dose of counterprogramming for the audience. It's corporate propaganda vs community pupaganda! It's the brazen display of unconditional love needed to remind people their home is worth fighting for!
Over twenty-five handcrafted illustrations bring captivating visual accompaniment to the story's often surreal beats. In addition to a thorough Glossary and Bibliography, there are seven "Hard-as-a-Brick" Reality Essays to help Readers gain a deeper understanding of environmental issues (fracking, climate gentrification, lead poisoning, etc.).

    Stalking the Great Killer is the story of Arkansas's struggle to control tuberculosis, and how the state became a model in its treatment of the disease. 
     
     
     
    To place the story of tuberculosis in Arkansas in historical perspective, the authors trace the origins of the disease. Arkansas suffered some of the worst ravages of the disease, and the authors argue that many of the improvements in the state's medical infrastructure grew out of the desperate need to control it. 
     
     
     
    In the early twentieth century, Arkansas established a sanatorium and thirty years later, the segregated Black sanitorium. These institutions helped slow the disease but at a cost: removed from families and communities, patients suffered from the isolation. Joseph Bates saw this when he delivered an uncle to the sanitorium in the 1940s. In the 1960s, Bates, now a physician, and his colleague Paul Reagan overcame a resistant medical-political system to develop a new approach to treating the disease. 
     
     
     
    In the age of Covid-19, this history offers valuable lessons about community involvement in public health, the potential efficacy of public-private partnerships, and the importance of leadership in the battle to eradicate disease.
