When Bells and Mitch, two young space aliens from the planet Exergy, crash-land on Earth, they must apply the engineering design process to get themselves back home. Captivated by the beautiful yellow dandelions near their crash site, Bells and Mitch investigate the dandelions’ life cycle. Observing how the flowers disperse their seeds, they construct a mechanical replica to launch their ship back into space. Showing how nature itself can instruct us in engineering, Hunt and Pantoya take young readers on a journey of discovery and problem solving. The authors worked with early childhood literacy experts and science museums in developing this story that teaches the relationship between science and engineering, explains the design process, and introduces science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts and vocabulary.

Poetry. In her first collection of poetry, Emily Hunt inverts the ordinary: How to bring a new figure close / was like taking a globe, turning it once / and placing it back on its pedestal. Using spare diction and imagery, Hunt imagines a new world "so close to what the world is like" that the reader might feel like a humble visitor to our planet Earth. Though often elegiac, DARK GREEN is alive, inviting its readers to deeply sense this poet's tender and singular investigations. "With incantatory wit, Emily Hunt writes poems that could be stories, or stories that might be poems. DARK GREEN starts with a farewell, but grows in power, depth and range from page to page; like snowflakes or violins, no two poems are the same, but each displays visual acuity married to a gift from a different fairy, the power to reveal under the reader's skin vast pools of hitherto untapped emotion. Reading Emily Hunt's DARK GREEN one feels things one couldn't have before imagined possible."—Kevin Killian "Like Auden's, Emily Hunt's precision and bold intelligence discover what ought to be discovered on a daily basis; her poems say what suffering is and what it does; they say we are all of us in all we do. From DARK GREEN we get a hint at how to register the almost invisible nuances that fuel our spirits, minds and heart."—Dara Wier "Emily Hunt is an accomplished lyricist, quiet ethnographer, and kooky observer of inner turbulences. She's also a remarkable poet who has written a stunning first book. Her poems are spiky, wheeling, and fierce; a voice continuously evolving, speaking directly from her own haunted yet intimate, 2000-now. DARK GREEN is a wonder and a gift."—Peter Gizzi

The Song Cave

Scotland. 1429. Clan Cameron has suffered a devastating attack from their enemies. Nearly every family in the village has lost a loved one, and Eleanor Carmichael and her siblings feel their loss the strongest after both their parents are slain. 
As winter approaches, Eleanor is determined to keep her family safe, but when her brother brings home an injured man he found upon the moors, Eleanor is convinced the stranger is none other than Angus Mackintosh, the fierce warrior they were warned to fear--the man who led the attack upon their village. As Angus’s injuries heal, Eleanor is faced with a decision: will she remain loyal to her clan and the commitment to keep her family safe, or will she shelter the man who may have brought about her village’s devastation? 
Inspired by true events, this is a tale of courage and forgiveness, and of allowing your heart to live and to love again.

Our heroes dive deep into Earth?s Pacific Ocean to solve a problem: how can they protect their home city on Exergy? Could the creatures living in the Pacific Ocean--who use camouflage to hide from predators--hold the answer? Join Bells and Mitch as they use the principles of the engineering design process to ask, imagine, plan, create, and improve their ingenious solution in Book Two of the Engineering Everything series.

Emily was in a restaurant, having lunch with her father - the next thing she remembers is waking up, naked, in a strange hotel room, next to a man she did not know. She suspected she had been drugged, raped and later found out she had been filmed without her consent. What happened to her that night could have happened to anyone. What came next happens to far too many victims, as failures by the police, the UK's Crown Prosecution Service and other parts of the system, led to Emily doubting she would ever find justice. Six years after her attack, Emily is an adviser to the UK Government on sexual violence. Part memoir and part investigation, Emily shines a light on the fault lines of a system and a society that is failing rape victims. We Need To Talk looks at how rape is a mainstream, everyday problem deeply damaging victims, their families, their workplaces and the economy.
