Sinopse

Young readers, meet Francis of Assisi—the world's most famous Saint
Travel back in time and over the sea to a city in Umbria in the heart of Italy in 1182. There you'll meet Francesco Bernardone—better known as Saint Francis of Assisi.
But who was Francis? He was a Saint, that's for sure—but he was also a soldier and a rebel. He was a man who loved peace and preached to animals but was unafraid to stand up for what was right, take care of lepers, challenge the rich, and defend the poor.
Tim Ladwig's beautiful illustrations will transport you into Francis's world and open your eyes and your heart to the inspiring life of the world's most famous saint.

Anarchism and Other Essays

Emma Goldman

"Goldman was an admirer of Nietzsche and in many ways represents a model of a superior individual who is capable of rising above the herd instincts of the masses and embracing confrontation with danger. She never hesitated to countenance both the ire of public authorities and the scorn of public opinion. As contemporary anarchists have fallen into the mundane habit of politically correct conformity, a full examination of Goldman's thought suggests the need for a new anarchism that reflects the martial spirit of which Goldman was an exemplary.  Emma Goldman is often depicted in current academic discourse, and the "Left" in particular, as a role model for feminists and a champion of the proletariat. Keith Preston however in reviewing each chapter of Goldman's most famous work "Anarchism and Other Essays" reveals that Emma Goldman often expressed ideas which many of her present day admirers will find surprising and unsettling. He highlights the fact that Emma Goldman distrusted the proletariat, wrote disdainfully of the early feminists who were her contemporaries, and expressed scepticism of women's suffrage."

Award-winning Hilary McKay brings the childhood of Victorian heroine Grace Darling to life in this heartfelt reimagining of her life up to and including the Forfarshire shipwreck. 
Grace Darling nearly drowned when she was eight years old, leaving her with a fear of boats and the sea. But it’s a fear she has to overcome as the daughter of a lighthouse keeper, living on the Longstone Rock with her parents, four brothers, three sisters and her beloved dog, Happy. 
Losses at sea bring shadows to an otherwise idyllic childhood, but everything Grace learns growing up on the coast is put to the test in 1838, when The Forfarshire is wrecked on the Harcar Rock, and she has to row out through the storm to the rescue. 
Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8. 
This bestseller is not just a story of survival, but a testament to a young girl's self-reliance and self-esteem. Set in Europe, this historical fiction is a perfect blend of adventure and family themes. 
For fans of Robin Stevens (Death Sets Sail), Katherine Rundell (The Explorer), Natasha Farrant (Voyage of the Sparrowhawk), Rhian Tracey (I, Spy), and Elisa Paganelli (The House with Chicken Legs).

Lenny's big brother, Brandon, has been persuaded to take Lenny and his friends to a safari park to prove what how responsible he is. But when things increasingly get out of control and they're get trapped in the car in the lions' enclosure with a claustrophobic three-legged gazelle this seems impossible.
