Introducing Stella Hardy, a wise-cracking social worker with a thirst for social justice,
good laksa, and alcohol.
Stella's phone rings. A young African boy, the son of one of her clients, has been murdered in a
dingy back alley. Stella, in her forties and running low on empathy, heads into the night to
comfort the grieving mother. But when she gets there, she makes a discovery that has the
potential to uncover something terrible from her past — something she thought she'd gotten
away with.
Then Stella's neighbour Tania mysteriously vanishes. When Stella learns that Tania is the heir
to a billion-dollar mining empire, Stella realises her glamorous young friend might have had
more up her sleeve than just a perfectly toned arm.
Who is behind her disappearance?
Enlisting the help of her friend, Senior Constable Phuong Nguyen, Stella's investigation draws
her further and further into a dark world of drug dealers, sociopaths, and killers, such as the
enigmatic Mr Funsail, whose name makes even hardened criminals run for cover.
One thing is clear: Stella needs to find answers fast — before the people she's looking for find
her instead.
Set in the bustling, multicultural inner-west of Melbourne, Good Money reveals a daring and
exciting new voice in Australian crime fiction.

From the Nobel Prize winner and best-selling author of Snow and My Name Is Red: a
soaring, panoramic new novel – his first since The Museum of Innocence – telling the
unforgettable tale of an Istanbul street vendor and the love of his life.
Since his boyhood in a poor village in Central Anatolia, Mevlut Karataş has fantasized about
what his life would become. Not getting as far in school as he'd hoped, at the age of twelve, he
comes to Istanbul – 'the center of the world' – and is immediately enthralled both by the city
being demolished and the new one that is fast being built. He follows his father's trade, selling
boza (a traditional Turkish drink) on the street, and hoping to become rich, like other villagers
who have settled the desolate hills outside the booming metropolis. But chance seems to
conspire against him. He spends three years writing love letters to a girl he saw just once at a
wedding, only to elope by mistake with her sister. And though he grows to cherish his wife and
the family they have, his relations all make their fortunes while his own years are spent in a
series of jobs leading nowhere; he is sometimes attracted to the politics of his friends and
intermittently to the lodge of a religious guide. But every evening, without fail, he still wanders
the streets of Istanbul, selling boza and wondering at the 'strangeness' in his mind, the sensation
that makes him feel different from everyone else, until fortune conspires once more to let him
understand at last what it is he has always yearned for.
Told from the perspectives of many beguiling characters, A Strangeness in My Mind is a
modern epic of coming of age in a great city, and a mesmerizing narrative sure to take its place
among Pamuk's finest achievements.

Wyatt needs a job.
A bank job would be nice, or a security van hold-up. As long as he doesn't have to work with
cocky idiots and strung-out meth-heads like the Pepper brothers. That's the sort of
miscalculation that buys you the wrong kind of time.
So he contacts a man who in the past put him on the right kind of heist. And finds himself in
Noosa, stealing a painting for Hannah Sten.
He knows how it's done: case the premises, set up escape routes and failsafes, get in and get out
with the goods unrecognised. Make a good plan; back it up with another. And be very, very
careful.
But who is his client? Who else wants that painting?
Sometimes, being very careful is not enough.

In this poetic and haunting tale set in contemporary Appalachia, New York Times bestselling
author Ron Rash illuminates lives shaped by violence and a powerful connection to the land.
Les, a long-time sheriff just three weeks from retirement, contends with the ravages of crystal
meth and his own duplicity in his small Appalachian town.
Becky, a park ranger with a harrowing past, finds solace amid the lyrical beauty of this patch of
North Carolina.
Enduring the mistakes and tragedies that have indelibly marked them, they are drawn together
by a reverence for the natural world. When an irascible elderly local is accused of poisoning a
trout stream, Les and Becky are plunged into deep and dangerous waters, forced to navigate
currents of disillusionment and betrayal that will force them to question themselves and test
their tentative bond—and threaten to carry them over the edge.
Echoing the heartbreaking beauty of William Faulkner and the spiritual isolation of Carson
McCullers, Above the Waterfall demonstrates once again the prodigious talent of 'one of the
great American authors at work today' (Janet Maslin, New York Times).

One day, Alice said, 'Eric Lane wants to take me to—'
For the first time, her mother attended, standing still.
Eric was brought to the house, and Eric and Alice were married before there was time to say
'knife'. How did it happen? She tried to trace it back. She was watching her mother performing
for Eric, and then (she always paused here in her mind), somehow, she woke up married and in
another house.
Internationally acclaimed for her five brilliant novels, Elizabeth Harrower is also the author of a
small body of short fiction. A Few Days in the Country brings together for the first time her
stories published in Australian journals in the 1960s and 1970s, along with those from her
archives—including 'Alice', published for the first time earlier this year in the New Yorker.
Essential reading for Harrower fans, these finely turned pieces show a broader range than the
novels, ranging from caustic satires to gentler explorations of friendship.

'Cracking another country's cipher is an undercover fight to the death . . . '
Hidden deep in the mountains, the recruits at 'Unit 701', China's secret services, operate in a
dark, shadowy world. There is the 'wind-listener', a blind surveillance officer who can hear
sounds from miles away; the beautiful, unstable maths genius who meets a violent end; the old
man who deciphers codes in his dreams; the spy who recounts a dangerous mission from
beyond the grave.
In this story of conspiracies, geniuses, revolutionaries and terrible moral choices, people
sacrifice everything for a world of secrets - until, ultimately, it destroys them.

When a husband convinces his wife to join him in a tryst with another woman, there are
unintended consequences . . .
As a divorce lawyer for Manhattan's elite, David Greenfield is privy to the intimate, dirty
details of failed marriages. He knows he's lucky to be married to Blair—a Barnard dean and the
mother of their college-age daughter, a woman he loves more today than when they tied the
knot.
But when seductive photographer Jean Coin asks David to be her lover for six weeks until she
leaves for Timbuktu, David is tempted, reasoning that 'it's not cheating if your wife's there.' A
one-night threesome would relieve the pressure of monogamy without wrecking their marriage.
What harm could come of fulfilling his longtime sexual fantasy?

The New York Times bestselling author of the seductive Mackenzies series once again sweeps
readers away with two Mackenzies novellas together for the first time.
When Lady Louisa Scranton of the decadent Scottish Mackenzie family is accused of murder,
Detective Inspector Lloyd Fellows of Scotland Yard, vows to clear her name. He's already
shared kisses with Lady Louisa, and not only is he convinced of her innocence, he's falling for
her. And while he may be the only hope of restoring her family's honor, he intrigues Louisa in a
way that may be even more scandalous than murder.
Scandal follows Rose Barclay, young widow of the Duke of Southdown, wherever she goes.
And now she's been kicked out of her rightful home. But the dashing Scot Steven McBride—a
decorated soldier who is notorious for heavy gambling and womanizing during his leave time—
comes up with a ruse to foil the journalists and save Rose's inheritance. But Rose will have to
go along with his very scandalous proposal.

'They flew into each other's arms - It was too pathetic for the feelings of Sophia and myself We fainted Alternately on a Sofa'
This sparkling collection of Austen's early writings - some penned when she was just eleven
years old - is playful, subversive and shot through with wit. Here are bawdy sketches, short
tales, imagined letters and miniature histories in which vain, egotistical men forget their own
wives, drunken young women slander and poison their competition, and one woman accepts
two marriage proposals for fear of causing offence. Also featured is the novella 'Lady Susan',
telling of an adulterous aristocrat who manipulates and deceives those around her for personal
gain. Delighting in nonsense and wordplay, these riotous pieces reveal Austen's dark, anarchic
young imagination.

'Erewhon is a place with a strong respect for the past, its forebears and the way they eked an
honest living from the land, working with the weather and rivers.
'With no beginning and no end, the cycle of life in the high country continues as it always has.
These soaring mountains and cavernous valleys look the same as when Butler and others
explored on horseback 150 years ago – only the seasons change.'
The legendary Erewhon Station is a 13,500-hectare property at the headwaters of the Rangitata
River, Canterbury. Nestled within the majestic Southern Alps, and neighbouring the equally
historic Mesopotamia and Mount Potts stations, this fabled New Zealand high country served as
the backdrop for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.
Erewhon is New Zealand's true home of the working horse, and a station that brings its past into
the present – most 'tractor work' is done with a team of Clydesdales and all stock work,
including the traditional autumn muster, is carried out on horseback or on foot.
Seasons of Erewhon at once captures the spirit of history as well as the distinctive story of
enterprise and isolation through the current lease holders: the laconic Colin Drummond and his
effervescent partner Erin Cassie. Writer Yvonne Martin and photographer David Hallett follow
the couple and their crew as they work this harsh land throughout the seasons, capturing the
station's wild, dramatic and ever-changing natural environment.

Thousands of homes were damaged or destroyed when more than 14,000 earthquakes and
aftershocks hit Canterbury following the devastating quakes in September 2010 and February
2011. For many homeowners the task of repairing or rebuilding their home has only just begun,
or worse, is still to come. But amidst the continuing upheaval, progress has been made — as the
homes featured in this book attest. Ranging from restored heritage homes to brand-new
contemporary dwellings on recovered sites, they are living spaces made beautiful once again.
As well as providing their owners with renewed comfort and a sense of security, they offer a
glimpse of the innovative responses that have emerged as people piece their homes back
together or build afresh.

Crikey, the world according to Clarkson's been a funny old place of late . . .
For a while, Jeremy could be found in his normal position as the tallest man on British
television but, more recently, he appears to have been usurped by a pretend elephant.
But on paper the real Jeremy remains at the helm. That's as it should be. For nearly thirty
years he has been fearlessly leading the charge as one the best comic writers in the country.
And in 2015, he shows no sign of slowing down.
So, whether it's pondering
if Jesus might have been better off being born in New Zealand why reflexive pronoun abuse is
the worst thing in the world how Pam Ayres's head trumps Gordon Gecko's underpants or what
a television presenter with time on his hands gets up to Jeremy is still trying to make sense of
all the big stuff.
Circumstances change. Nothing's forever. But As I Was Saying provides glorious proof that
Jeremy remains as funny, puzzled, excitable, outspoken, insightful and thought-provoking as
ever. As if you ever doubted it . . .

Island Home
Winton, Tim
$45.00 (Miscell H/B) Hamish Hamilton 256pp
23 September 2015 9781926428741 Carton Qty:

'I grew up on the world's largest island.'
This apparently simple fact is the starting point for Tim Winton's beautiful, evocative and
sometimes provocative memoir of how this unique landscape has shaped him and his writing.
For over thirty years, Winton has written novels in which the natural world is as much a living
presence as any character. What is true of his work is also true of his life: from boyhood, his
relationship with the world around him – rockpools, seacaves, scrub and swamp – was as vital
as any other connection. Camping in hidden inlets of the south-east, walking in the high rocky
desert fringe, diving at Ningaloo Reef, bobbing in the sea between sets, Winton has felt the
place seep into him, with its rhythms, its dangers, its strange sustenance, and learned to see
landscape as a living process.
Island Home is the story of how that relationship with the Australian landscape came to be, and
how it has determined his ideas, his writing and his life. It is also a passionate exhortation for
all of us to feel the ground beneath our feet. Much more powerfully than a political idea, or an
economy, Australia is a physical entity. Where we are defines who we are, in ways we too often
forget to our detriment, and the country's.
Wise, rhapsodic, exalted – Island Home is not just a brilliant, moving insight into the life and
art of one of our finest writers, but a compelling investigation into the way our country makes
us who we are.

Qty: 1
From journalist, activist, and international icon Gloria Steinem comes her first book in twenty
years, an all-new memoir of a lifetime of listening and learning from people, traveling America
and the world.
Gloria Steinem had an itinerant childhood. Every fall, her father would pack the family into the
car and they would drive across the country, in search of their next adventure. The seeds were
planted: Steinem would spend much of her life on the road, as a journalist, organizer, activist,
and speaker. In vivid stories that span an entire career, Steinem writes about her time on the
campaign trail, from Bobby Kennedy to Hillary Clinton; her early exposure to social activism
in India; organizing ground-up movements in America; the taxi drivers who were 'vectors of
modern myths' and the airline stewardesses who embraced feminism; and the infinite contrasts,
the 'surrealism in everyday life' that Steinem encountered as she traveled back and forth across
the country. With the unique perspective of one of the greatest feminist icons of the 20th and
21st centuries, here is an inspiring, profound, enlightening memoir of one woman's life-long
journey.

Following the News of the World phone-hacking scandal, Rupert Murdoch said his greatest
regret was that he had let his father down. Popular history views Sir Keith Murdoch (1885–
1952) as a fearless war correspondent, author of a brave, censor-evading letter that led to the
evacuation of the Anzac force from Gallipoli; and a principled journalist and dedicated family
man who left a single provincial newspaper to Rupert on his death. This benign reputation is
unsurprising: the two previously published biographies of Keith were Murdoch family
commissions.
But is there another side to the story of Keith's success and the origins of News Corporation?
Before Rupert is an unflinching prequel to the saga of the Murdoch family's rise to power.
Historian Tom Roberts draws on an unparalleled range of interviews, correspondence and
archival sources to trace the genesis of the family's involvement with the newspaper industry
and their influence. Before Rupert explores how Keith Murdoch ruthlessly navigated a network
of connections and exploited the hidden intersection of press and power to gain ultimate control
over Australia's media and political landscapes.
With controversial revelations – of secret engagements, World War I propaganda operations,
and the sensationalising of a schoolgirl's murder leading to the execution of an innocent man –
this book shows how by Rupert's birth a pattern for the ruthless exercise of power through an
expanding media chain had been set, a course that is still followed to this day.
The Devil is a Black Dog: stories from the Middle East and beyond

'I don't regret anything, really. I never wanted to live a sensible life … I didn't want a
sensible death either.'
War-torn Africa, a Middle East in crisis, and post-Soviet Eastern Europe form the backdrop to
the stories told in The Devil Is a Black Dog — stories based on the extraordinary experiences of
acclaimed photojournalist Sándor Jászberényi. From Cairo to the Gaza Strip, from Benghazi to
Budapest, his characters contemplate the meaning of home, love, family, and friendship in the
face of brutality.
Immersed in the societies he reports on and heedless in the face of war and revolution,
Jászberényi observes mothers, martyrs, soldiers, and lovers who must confront the extremes of
contemporary experience. In spare, evocative prose, he combines fact and fiction to create a
profoundly true portrait of the humanity behind the headlines.

Hurd, Douglas

21 October 2015 9780141979410 Carton
Qty: 1
In September 2015 Queen Elizabeth II becomes Britain's longest-reigning monarch. During her
long lifetime Britain and the world have changed beyond recognition, yet throughout she has
stood steadfast as a lasting emblem of stability, continuity and public service.
Historian and senior politician Douglas Hurd has seen the Queen at close quarters, as Home
Secretary and then on overseas expeditions as Foreign Secretary. Here he considers the life and
role of Britain's most greatly admired monarch, who, inheriting a deep sense of duty from her
father George VI, has weathered national and family crises, seen the end of an Empire and
heard voices raised in favour of the break-up of the United Kingdom.
Hurd creates an arresting portrait of a woman deeply conservative by nature yet possessing a
ready acceptance of modern life and the awareness that, for things to stay the same, they must
change.
With a foreword by Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.
World War One: A History in 100 Stories

21 October 2015 9780143799986 Carton
Qty: 1
There has been no shortage of heroic stories over the course of the Anzac Centenary: stories of
courage and sacrifice, fortitude and endurance, mateship and resolve. But a hundred years on,
there is a need for other stories as well – the stories too often marginalised in favour of nationbuilding narratives.
World War One: a history in 100 stories remembers not just the men and women who lost their
lives during the battles of WWI, but those who returned home as well: the gassed, the crippled,
the insane – all those irreparably damaged by war.
Drawn from a unique collection of sources, including repatriation files, these heartbreaking and
deeply personal stories reveal a broken and suffering generation – gentle men driven to
violence, mothers sent insane with grief, the hopelessness of rehabilitation and the quiet,
pervasive sadness of loss. They also retrieve a fragile kind of courage from the pain and
devastation of a conflict that changed the world.
This is an unflinching and remarkable social history. It is an act of remembering in the face of
forgetting. Telling the truth about war requires its own kind of courage.
The Fine Cotton Fiasco: The True Story of a Bogus Horse, a

The incredible tale of the Fine Cotton Affair
The plan was simple enough. Buy a horse of limited ability, swap it over before a race with a
horse almost identical to it but with greater talent and speed, and sit back and make millions.
But it all went pear-shaped when the ringer became injured . . .
On 21 August 1984 the Eagle Farm racetrack in Brisbane was full to bursting. Forget the
Melbourne Cup; this was the race that really stopped the nation – a novice handicap, the field a
collection of try-hards, the rugged and the buggered. In the preceding hours and days there had
been a massive betting plunge on a mediocre horse even for this field, the nine-year-old Fine
Cotton. Across Australia, thousands of punters who believed they had the tip of the century
held their breath . . .
Journalist and humorist Peter Hoysted – a.k.a. Jack the Insider – turns his uniquely satirical eye
to Australian racing's most infamous ring-in. The Fine Cotton Fiasco is the true story of a
desperate Sydney gangster, corrupt police, a foolhardy trainer, a dodgy used-car salesman, a
bucket of henna hair dye, an unsuspecting horse (two, actually), and a 'colourful racing identity'
who saw it all coming and made a fortune for himself while everyone else did their dough.

In the skies of World War II Europe, the Eighth Air Force was a defining factor in turning the
tide against the Nazis. In these gripping oral histories, the sacrifice, savagery, and supremacy of
the 'Mighty Eighth' is described by those who experienced it . . . and survived it.
At the outbreak of World War II, America was woefully unprepared for a fight, though Europe
was already years into the battle. Soon, though, America's war machine was rolling out pilots,
engineers, planes, and materials in astounding numbers. It was called the Eighth Air Force—
and it would hit the Nazi juggernaut like a lightning bolt.
Launching a then-groundbreaking campaign of daylight bombing runs, the men of the Eighth
would suffer more casualties than the entire Marine Corps in the Pacific theater. But they would
also prove to be the most effective weapon against the enemy, taking out strategic targets such
as munitions plants and factories that were vital to the German war effort and grinding them to
a halt. In The Mighty Eighth, the men who fought in the greatest air war in human history tell
their stories of courage and camaraderie as only those who were there can tell them.

floor and best friend, snapping iPhone photos of Jimmy Choo in various poses and costumes,
often with added quirky line illustrations as backdrops.
The result? More than one hundred charming and cheeky images chronicling the owner and

'I'm passionate about Australia and how we all live within its vast surroundings. My visual
storytelling is inspired by the everyday people and landscapes I encounter on my adventures'.
In this celebration of Australian landscapes and interiors, photographer Kara Rosenlund
explores the notion of shelter – what do we gather around ourselves to make a home and how
does the landscape shape our living spaces? Kara travelled all over the country to seek out
authentic, appealing and intriguing Australian interiors and documented them in her trademark
honest and poignant style. With a focus on regional and rural Australia, her love of the
'beautiful and tired, rambling and crumbling' ensures this is a book full of character and
emotion. Detailed captions illuminate the stories behind the people and places Kara
encountered.
Cultured Food for Health: A Guide to Healing Yourself with

21 October 2015 9781401947835 Carton
Qty: 1
Donna Schwenk's first book, Cultured Food for Life (2013), told the amazing story of how she
used the probiotic power of fermented foods to heal herself and her family from serious
illness—and it introduced readers to the basics of preparing and using these health-giving
foods. Dr. Christiane Northrup called it 'just what the doctor should be ordering!' Now, Donna
returns to help us take the next steps in transforming our kitchens and our health.
Cultured Food for Health explores the science behind the benefits of cultured foods and shows
how incorporating 'The Trilogy'—kefir, kombucha, and cultured vegetables—into our diet
creates more powerful healing effects than any one of these foods alone, as the different types
of probiotic bacteria work together to create a healthy gut and a truly healthy life. Donna
explains how cultured foods can be used to address specific ailments—from IBS and diabetes
to allergies, colds, and flu—and teaches us, step by step, how to prepare these probiotic foods
and easily incorporate them into a daily routine. In a positive and welcoming voice, she answers
the sorts of questions a cultured-food novice is likely to have (yes, it's really all right to let
vegetables ferment on the bench for three days!) and offers troubleshooting tips and clear
instructions to support even the most uncertain home cook.
By sharing her own story as well as real-life stories from members of her online community,
Donna takes the fear out of fermentation so that all of us can experience the energy, well-being,
and joy available to us when our bodies are working the way they're meant to. Includes a vivid
color insert with images for guidance and inspiration.

In Treasure Yourself, international supermodel Miranda Kerr offers her own view on how her
generation and those following can achieve greater health and happiness. Miranda believes that
one of the most powerful tools to facilitate change is positive affirmation and she has collected
over 100 affirmations from some of the world's most inspirational authors including Louise L.
Hay, Wayne W. Dyer, Deepak Chopra and many more.
The book begins with a lovely parable that teaches that sometimes, challenges and struggles are
exactly what we need in our lives; that we should not see every struggle and challenge as a
negative because just as a caterpillar has to struggle out of its cocoon, it can then open its wings
and fly . . .
I wish to share my inspiration with you, so that you will treasure and believe in yourself, have
faith in your abilities, accept who you are and uncover your own unique gifts. We all have
wings, but it is up to each one of us to have the courage to fly. My hope is that these words and
the affirmations included will help empower you to reach for your dreams even in difficult
times. With action, anything in life is possible'. - Miranda Kerr xxx

'I know this may come as a shock, and you know I'm not fond of using stale one-liners, but:
'reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.' I'm as alive now as I was on the day we
met, except, maybe, more so.'
If the dead could speak, don't you wonder what they would say to those of us they've left
behind? What would they tell us to soothe our sorrow for their loss, calm our fears of what
happens when we die, and fire us up to live the best possible lives we can right now?
In pages filled with wisdom, humor, and, yes, joy, New York Times best-selling author Mike
Dooley explores our most pressing and profound questions about the afterlife—and this life—
from the fresh perspective of those who have made the transition to the next phase. Among the
revelations and insights they share:


We were ready; you are not.
There's no such thing as a devil or hell.
We're sorry for any pain we may have caused.
Your pets are just as crazy, brilliant, and loving here as they were there.
Nothing we say can prepare you for the beauty of the moment you arrive.
You'll learn that our loved ones are not lost to us; that our time on earth is both a school and an
adventure; that, despite all appearances to the contrary, life truly is fair; and that we have it in
us to reshape our own fortunes, starting today.
The Truth: An Uncomfortable Book About Relationships
Strauss Neil
$40.00 (Royal Pb 230x152 Mm) Text 448pp
13 October 2015 9781922147349 Carton Qty:

FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE GAME
Neil Strauss became famous to millions around the world as the author of The Game, a funny
and slyly instructive account of how he transformed himself from a scrawny, insecure nerd into
the ultra-confident, ultra-successful 'pickup artist' known as Style. The book jump-started the
international 'seduction community', and made Strauss a household name—revered or
notorious—among single men and women alike.
But the experience of writing The Game also transformed Strauss into a man who could have
what every man wants: the ability to date or have casual sex with almost every woman he met.
The results were heady, to be sure. But they also conditioned him to view the world as a kind of
constant parade of women, sex and opportunity—with intimacy and long-term commitment
taking a back seat. That is, until he met the woman who forced him to choose between herself
and the parade.
The choice was not only difficult, it was wrenching. It forced him deep into his past, to confront
not only the moral dimensions of his pickup lifestyle, but also a mystery in his childhood that
shaped the man that he became. It sent him into extremes of behaviour that exposed just how
conflicted his life had become. And it made him question everything he knew about himself,
and about the way men and women live with and without each other.
He would never be the same again. Searingly honest, compulsively readable, The Game of Love
may have the same effect on you.
Praise for The Game:
'A narrative of daredevil sexuality.' Guardian
'Touching and witty.' Time Out
'The funniest book I have read this year.' Tony Parsons

Master entrepreneur, original hip-hop mogul, and New York Times bestselling author Russell
Simmons shares the most fundamental key to success—meditation—and guides readers to use
stillness as a powerful tool to access their potential.
In the New York Times bestseller Super Rich, Russell Simmons proved that to be rich is more
than just having money in the bank—wealth is about balance, joy, and conscientious living.
In Success Through Stillness, Simmons shows the connection between inner peace and outward
success through interviews with other successful leaders in various industries, and how learning
to be still has been instrumental in his own career. Simmons attributes his meditation practice
with changing his life for the better and says that there is no 'bad' way to meditate, only
different forms for different people.
In this highly anticipated new book, Russell Simmons guides readers into finding greater clarity
and focus, and explains how to be healthier in both mind and body. Simmons breaks down what
he's learned from masters of meditation into a guide that is accessible to those unfamiliar with
the practice.

Imagine controlling a machine with your mind. Imagine a communication line direct from your
mind to someone else's. Imagine controlling a prosthetic limb with a thought, or 'seeing'
through a camera located miles away.
Once the stuff of science fiction, such remarkable feats are now within the grasp of
neuroscience.
Malcolm Gay tells the fascinating stories of the researchers delving into the intricate workings
of the brain to map the neural signals that make up our thoughts, of the group of brave,
vulnerable patient-volunteers participating in these ground-breaking experiments, and of the
developing technologies that will not only improve lives but potentially revolutionise human
capabilities.
The Brain Electric asks us to rethink our relationship with technology, our bodies, even
consciousness itself—challenging our assumptions about what it means to be human.

Dear Tane, I've never prayed to a god, so hope this is okay. If I get it wrong, don't strike me
down with a thunderbolt or anything - I'm just a kid.
Conrad Cooper needs a favour. He's just found out about Tane, the god of the forest, and he's
decided that Tane is the perfect guy to solve his family problems. After all, the more highprofile gods probably have huge waiting lists, right? In return, Conrad will do anything to repay
Tane, no matter how much trouble it causes. But will a Maori god listen to the prayers of a tenyear-old Pakeha boy? And, worse still, does Tane even exist?
Set in 1978 against the Bastion Point occupation, Conrad Cooper's Last Stand is junior fiction
full of humour but with a powerful core. Award-winning author Leonie Agnew has created a
surprising, brave and completely engaging novel for young readers.

journey starts off full of promise, then quickly takes several wrong turns. Gas station
bathrooms, crazed seagulls, a fender bender, and a runaway pig—not exactly Greg Heffley's

Heffleys won't soon forget.

teenhood via school-hood. Sometimes helped by his friends and family, often not helped by
himself!

From Richelle Mead, the #1 internationally bestselling author of Vampire Academy and
Bloodlines, comes a breathtaking new fantasy steeped in Chinese folklore.
For as long as Fei can remember, there has been no sound in her village, where rocky terrain
and frequent avalanches prevent residents from self-sustaining. Fei and her people are at the
mercy of a zip-line that carries food up the treacherous cliffs from Beiguo, a mysterious
faraway kingdom.
When villagers begin to lose their sight, deliveries from the zip-line shrink and many go
hungry. Fei's home, the people she loves, and her entire existence are plunged into crisis, under
threat of darkness and starvation.
But soon Fei is awoken in the night by a searing noise, and sound becomes her weapon.
Richelle Mead takes readers on a triumphant journey from the peak of Fei's jagged-mountain
village to the valley of Beiugo, where a startling truth and an unlikely romance will change her
life forever.

him and his animals—named One, Two, Three, Four and Five—in a snowy blanket. But when

Ducks growing out of bananas?
A mouse catching a cat?
What's wrong with this book?
Yes, there's something strange, something funny and even downright preposterous on every
page of this book But it's not a mistake - it's nonsense! And it's also surrealism. Nonsense lies
at the heart of many beloved nursery rhymes. Children readily accept odd statements like 'the
cow jumped over the moon' and 'the dish ran away with the spoon.' This fanciful bending of
reality is also basic to surrealism.
In this book, nonsense and surrealism combine to spark creativity and imagination. What's
true? What's impossible? What's absolutely absurd? From Eric Carle, creator of the classic, The
Very Hungry Caterpillar, comes a book to make children laugh and think, preparing them for a
lifetime of loving both words and art.

Can anyone be truly herself—or truly in love—in a language that's not her own?
Sixteen-year-old Josie lives her life in translation. She speaks High School, College, Friends,
Boyfriends, Break-ups, and even the language of Beautiful Girls. But none of these is her native
tongue–the only people who speak that are her best friend Stu and her sister Kate. So when
Kate gets engaged to an epically insufferable guy, how can Josie see it as anything but the
mistake of a lifetime? Kate is determined to bend Josie to her will for the wedding; Josie is
determined to break Kate and her fiancé up. As battles are waged over secrets and semantics,
Josie is forced to examine her feelings for the boyfriend who says he loves her, the sister she
loves but doesn't always like, and the best friend who hasn't said a word–at least not in a
language Josie understands.

It's time for the Finger Sport Game and the finger worms are very excited.
The child is invited to become the main character by drawing a face on the tip of his finger and
then joining the scenes by popping it through the die cuts on every page.
Unlike all previous finger worm books in the series, this one has long die cuts across each page
(as opposed to round holes) so that the child can make their finger worm athletes jump over
obstacles, jump into pools, race across the page and even do trampoline routines.
The book ends with a finger worm getting the gold medal at an award ceremony for the best
sports worm.
Hervé Tullet's Let's Play Games books offer a range of thought-provoking concepts and visual
styles. Each book unlocks a child's creative energy in it's own unique way, stimulating thought
and imagination.
