A fresh take on a familiar saying, perfect for the first rainy days of spring. Rattling windows with the roar of a late-winter storm, March shows up like a lion-- wild and messy, muddy and wet. In rhythmic, exuberant text, Newbery Honor-author Marion Dane Bauer conveys the changeable nature of spring weather, as the lion makes way for the lamb—with a huge sneeze!—as the trees and flowers spring into bloom. Full of humor and motion, Caldecott-winning illustrator Emily Arnold McCully's soft watercolors bring the blustering lion and gentle lamb to life. From hail and wet snow to vibrant green fields full of blossoms, the illustrations grow brighter, springing into new life—and hinting and the summer to come. The lively text and paintings illustrate the ways in which we personify spring weather, making this book a perfect introduction to figurative language—and lots of fun to read as well.

Terra Nostra is one of the great masterpieces of modern Latin American fiction. Concerned with nothing less than the history of Spain and of South America, with the Indian Gods and with Christianity, with the birth, the passion, and the death of civilizations, Fuentes's great novel is, indeed, that rare creation--the total work of art. Magnificently translated by Margaret Sayers Peden, Terra Nostra is, as Milan Kundera says in his afterword, "the spreading out of the novel, the exploration of its possibilities, the voyage to the edge of what only a novelist can see and say."

The Lamb Will Slaughter the Lion by Margaret Killjoy pits utopian anarchists against rogue demon deer in this dropkick-in-the-mouth punk fantasy that Alan Moore calls "scary and energetic." Searching for clues about her best friend’s mysterious suicide, Danielle ventures to the squatter, utopian town of Freedom, Iowa, and witnesses a protector spirit — in the form of a blood-red, three-antlered deer — begin to turn on its summoners. She and her new friends have to act fast if they’re going to save the town — or get out alive. “Intelligent and fiercely imagined.” —Alan Moore “A dark story of the human need for power.” —Eileen Gunn “Daring anti-fantasy.”— Nick Mamatas “A unique bite of punk culture.” — Delilah S. Dawson “Important, thought-provoking...thrilling ride.” —Lewis Shiner “Always vivid.”—Tobias Buckell “As relatable as it is harrowing.” —Leanna Renee Hieber “Utterly engrossing...it refuses to let you go.” —Mur Lafferty At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Written by first-time author Bob Curran, 'Heart of a Lamb Courage of a Lion' tells a heart-breaking story of the life of the writer from early years growing up in 60's Dundee to life as an acclaimed amateur fighter and Royal Engineer. Make no mistake; this is a very brave piece to have been written. Whilst many have penned autobiographies, I can think of none that have offered themselves so 'warts and all' as Curran. The Scotsman endured a brutal upbringing at the hands of a violent alcoholic father and suffered more of the same growing up attending tough Catholic schools. Beaten to a pulp by his Dad, teachers and school bullies on a regular basis, the tiny lad not only suffered physical hurt but deep emotional scars that remain to this very day. Around the horrendous treatment came the boxing bug as the bullied youngster joined a local boxing club aged seven and became instantly addicted. Boxing firstly out of the Camperdown ABC before joining the Lochee Boys club, the diminutive lad improved his confidence and well-being as a young fighter weighing not even seven stone (98lbs).There's a highly amusing tale about the young Curran whipping a well-known politician in his time at Lochee. Thirty years or so later the same politician would brag on 'Celebrity Big Brother' about boxing out of Lochee to the writer's obvious irritation. Already a handy fighter and 1970 Scottish youth champion, the teenage Curran enlisted in the Army aged 16 where his boxing career flourished, going 50-2 in his time there. The talented Curran would box the likes of (future pro British champion) George Feeney in a glittering forces career which saw him crowned British bantamweight champion in the 1973 NABC championships. At 18-years-old Bob was offered a pro contract by Dave Boy Green's manager Andy Smith but turned it down with hopes of winning the national ABA's and competing in the Olympics. Curran turned down the lucrative offer but, despite his obvious talent, never achieved either distinction and also never turned professional. Here is where the story really sours and the book starts becoming increasingly hard to read. You'll keep reading though as Bob suffers some spectacular mishaps.The Scottish soldier, still suffering low self-esteem issues and with an under-lying self-loathing, went completely off the rails following the break-up of his brief, and disastrous, first marriage. The marriage ended bitterly and further knocked the young man's spirits as he spiralled into depression. Eventually thrown out of the forces following a destructive episode in Cyprus, Curran was forced to regroup and face up to life away from his beloved 59 Independent Commando squadron. The role of an Army physical training instructor is one he had relished and loved before his marriage break-up. While the book details in depth Curran's days as a champion boxer and Royal Engineer, the remaining thirty-odd years are skipped through in minimal time. The former soldier turned to drugs and heavy drinking in the years after but cleaned up after finding religion. He got married again and had children but nothing is mentioned other than none wanted to be included in the biography. The former fighter was forced into early retirement in 1999 following a work accident left him with a serious back injury. It is an engrossing read which proves amusing, sincere and fascinating.The almost Jekyll-and-Hyde character of Curran leaps out of the pages as a well-intentioned, but emotionally scarred individual, who has an amazing knack of making a bad situation even worse (especially with his sometimes acid tongue). You will laugh and cry at the manner the story is told; very honest with no bravado. He remains however a man of sound morals despite his colourful life. Considering he has faced; a violent upbringing, paedophile attacks, messy relationships, life in the Army, all his amateur fights plus drugs and alcohol abuse, Bob must be commended by dealing with all of the above and never dodges any subject no matter how the situation may reflect him (on a few occasions diabolically so). In closing, a brutal read which deals with many subjects everyone could do with learning more about; especially post-traumatic stress disorder and issues with self-esteem. A highly entertaining book for all but the faint-hearted.

The power of the gospel to transform individual lives has been evident throughout New Testament history. But what of the darkness and poverty that enslave entire nations? Miller builds a powerful, convincing thesis that God's truth can free whole societies from deception and poverty. Excellent study of worldviews!
