Summary/Abstract |
A yellow plastic duck makes a long perilous journey when he is washed overboard with a crate full of bathtub toys during a storm. In 1992, a crate containing 29000 plastic bathtub toy animals left on a ship from Hong Kong bound for the United States of America. It was washed overboard in a storm. Hundreds of the toys have since been found beached on the Eastern coast of the Gulf of Alaska. Scientists are checking findings and sightings to learn about currents, winds and tides. Using computers they plot the track of the remaining toys. They believe some will go into the Atlantic ocean and ride a course towards the North Pole. Some will sail around the top of the world to the North Atlantic. One lone duck has been found off Washington State, USA. How wonderous it is to be able to float!

Summary/Abstract |
In South Sudan, where Nya lives, many girls have a hard job: fetching water for their families from a remote water hole. The distance on foot is long, and the full water container is heavy. When Nya has to carry her little sister as well as the water, home seems impossibly distant. But reaching a thorn bush a few steps away - that she can do. And the tree after that, and then the next thing in her path...moving toward help and safety a step at a time. In the setting of Linda Sue park's bestseller A Long Walk to Water, and featuring a character who appears in those pages, Nya's Long Walk tells a story of determination, perseverance, and love.

Summary/Abstract |
Sugar has left a bloody trail through human history. Cane, not cotton or tobacco drove the Atlantic slave trade and took the lives of countless Africans who toiled on vast sugar plantations under cruel overseers. And yet the very popularity of sugar gave abolitionists in England the one tool that could finally end the slave trade. This book traces the history of sugar from its origins in New Guinea around 7000 B.C. to its use in the 21st century to produce ethanol.

Summary/Abstract |
John Adams wrote to Thomas Jefferson that the 'real revolution' took plae in the minds of the people, not just a few select leaders. Following this idea, the author relates American independence with war elephants charging at a crumbling fort in India and even the high stakes of gamblers in Scotland.
Provides a thought-provoking account and a new perspective on how America came into being and is packed with dramatic events and battle scenes, archival prints, engravings, maps and portraits.
