I call them Starlion cubs: Stars because they shine so brightly and cubs because they have lion hearts that are so brave and true, they are prepared to do anything for the animals they love. If you have a Starlion cub as your child, you're the luckiest mom or dad in the world, and this special animal lovers' book, Endangered Species Have Feelings Too, is for you. --Linda Tucker Author, Saving the White Lions; Conservationist; CEO, Global White Lion Protection Trust ***** Alexandra Delis-Abrams' book, Endangered Species Have Feelings Too, is certain to become a "primer" for the new generation of children that will be in tune with the animal world around them and thereby experiencing the joy in celebrating their coexistence with them. It will also inspire that generation to honor and revere the breadth of the life force on our planet. We are facing one of humanities greatest challenges as the natural world continues to be degraded. It will be through sensitive and genuine guidance by people like Alexandra that we will prevail. --Urmas Kaldveer, PhD Executive Director, The Mendocino Institute of Science and History Author, The Others: "The Whale People" a Personal Journey of Discovery, Transformation, and Healing ***** The need to educate future generations of the human impact on the natural world is of monumental global importance--as well as discovering how we learn to cooperate and live together on this precious planet. After reviewing this meaningful and relevant book, Endangered Species Have Feelings Too, I see countless ways this can be utilized in the school environment for compassion training and emotional awareness. I applaud Alexandra Delis-Abrams for teaching children how to imagine standing in the shoes of one of these endangered species, as well as how each person's contribution can make a life-changing difference. This is social-emotional-learning at its best and can be appreciated by children and adults worldwide. --Teri McKenna, LMSW School Social Worker, Hailey Elementary School, Hailey, Idaho ***** My appreciation and kudos to Alexandra Delis-Abrams on her new and unique educational/coloring book, Endangered Species Have Feelings Too. As we try to protect the animals that are endangered on our planet for "seven generations," we must start educating this generation now. The wonderful illustrations by Kim Howard and complimentary short stories by Alexandra get the message across to the children and adults that it is respect for the animal kingdom that is so urgently needed today. --Tewatennietha she sends Evans Elder of the Mohawk Nation Kahnawake, Mohawk Territory, Quebec, Canada ***** First, I like to say congratulations for your book. It is very educational, easy to understand, and I really enjoyed the way each endangered species narrated his natural history, important facts, and threats. Well done! As a biologist, I recognize how important and needed books are like this one! Endangered Species Have Feeling Too brings the readers into the perspective of the different reasons why we have critically endangered animals all around the world. Some of the species you selected were new species for me, so reading your book made me aware of the current status of new species, thanks a lot. --Victor M. Cuevas Forest Ranger, El Yunque National Forest, Puerto Rico

Download or read book Mama s Last Hug Animal Emotions and What They Tell Us about Ourselves written by Frans de Waal and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times best-selling author and primatologist Frans de Waal explores the fascinating world of animal and human emotions. Frans de Waal has spent four decades at the forefront of animal research. Following up on the best-selling Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?, which investigated animal intelligence, Mama’s Last Hug delivers a fascinating exploration of the rich emotional lives of animals. Mama’s Last Hug begins with the death of Mama, a chimpanzee matriarch who formed a deep bond with biologist Jan van Hooff. When Mama was dying, van Hooff took the unusual step of visiting her in her night cage for a last hug. Their goodbyes were filmed and went viral. Millions of people were deeply moved by the way Mama embraced the professor, welcoming him with a big smile while reassuring him by patting his neck, in a gesture often considered typically human but that is in fact common to all primates. This story and others like it form the core of de Waal’s argument, showing that humans are not the only species with the capacity for love, hate, fear, shame, guilt, joy, disgust, and empathy. De Waal discusses facial expressions, the emotions behind human politics, the illusion of free will, animal sentience, and, of course, Mama’s life and death. The message is one of continuity between us and other species, such as the radical proposal that emotions are like organs: we don’t have a single organ that other animals don’t have, and the same is true for our emotions. Mama’s Last Hug opens our hearts and minds to the many ways in which humans and other animals are connected, transforming how we view the living world around us.

After a blissful babyhood being cared for by her loving mother, Pangolina ventures out alone into the forest to become an independent adult, helped along by wise, older animal companions, including a civet and a bat. But one day cruel hunters trap Pangolina, putting her into a cage along with her friends, and bring them to a market to be sold as wild game. Pangolina is especially vulnerable, since her scales are prized by humans who believe they have curative powers. To the rescue comes a small girl who knows that pangolins are friendly fellow creatures who have feelings too, and who convinces her mother to buy Pangolina and set her free. Jane Goodall's many followers and all animal-loving children and adult picture book fans will be riveted by this suspenseful and heartwarming fictional story set in China and including an authoritative informational page about pangolins and suggestions for how to help fight animal trafficking.

Download or read book Endangered Species written by Charles E. Gannon and published by Baen Books. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CAINE RIORDAN RETURNS . . . AND FACES DOWN HIS BIGGEST CHALLENGE YET! Caine Riordan has faced many crises in his unintended career as diplomat, soldier, and first-contact specialist, but none more challenging than the one he faces now. He and twelve of his crew are adrift in uncharted space, so far beyond Earth that the starfield is unrecognizable. And with the controls and computer destroyed, they have no way to calculate their position or call for rescue. Instead, trapped on a derelict alien ship, they have only forty-eight hours before its decaying orbit causes it to burn up in the atmosphere of the strange planet beneath them. It’s a silent and forbidding world of bleak deserts and turbulent seas, without any sign of life and dominated by violent storms. But since the ship's lander is also useless, they've got only one way to reach the surface: flimsy, foam-inflating cargo drop pods never intended for human use, let alone an emergency planet-fall. And even if they live through the fiery plummet from low orbit, they have almost no portable gear with which to survive in an arid alien wilderness. However, those who make it to the surface discover that the dangers they couldn’t see from space are by far the most deadly. A variety of bizarre, carnivorous species roams the barren wastes, desperate for food. Their primary competition? Deeply devolved transgen humans that are as uncommunicative as they are primitive and ferocious. Even more ominous, the world’s blasted cities have telltale signs which indicate its original masters were none other than humanity's most dangerous foe: the Ktor. And worst of all, they may still be here. At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management). About Caine's Mutiny: “This is military Science Fiction the way it’s supposed to be written. . . . All in all, a highly satisfying tale of the Terran Republic that moves the story forward and setting us up for the next chapter, which promises to be interesting at worst and explosive at best.” —SFcrowsnest About Raising Caine: “Raising Caine unveils a lot of thought-provoking ideas, but ultimately this is a space opera adventure. There are space battles, daring emergency landings, desperate quests, hand-to-hand combat, and double-and-triple crosses. It’s an engrossing read. You owe it to yourself to read the two previous books in order. Then enjoy Raising Caine. It’s an intergalactic thrill-ride.” —Fantasy and Science Fiction Book and Audiobook Reviews “This is science-fiction adventure on a grand scale.” —Kirkus “Gannon’s harrowing . . . military space opera (following Trial by Fire) builds well on his established setting . . . Gannon’s signature attention to developing realistic alien worlds makes this installment satisfying.” —Publishers Weekly “[A]n incredibly active book . . . as our protagonists are confronted by the beautiful, terrible, and sometimes lethal variety of the universe and its inhabitants. . . . A whole mess of fun . . . that manages to be scientifically accurate while refraining from excessive wonkiness. Those who value meticulous worldbuilding . . . will certainly have their needs met.” —BN Sci-Fi and Fantasy Blog

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigel Mullet isn't your typical teenager . . . he's a vampire. But unfortunately, when Nigel transformed he didn't become all broody and interesting, and as for super strength and speed . . . well, forget it! Instead he's got acne, a voice that squeaks, a tendency to break out in a rash (not sparkles!) when exposed to the sun, and absolutely no idea how to talk to girls. When a beautiful new girl moves into the neighborhood, Nigel is determined to win her heart but first he's got to figure out how. In the meantime, he writes about her in his diary and composes really bad love poetry that he will recite to her one day, if he can work up the courage to tell her the truth. Can Nigel win the girl and the respect of his family--or is he destined to be a totally lame vampire forever?

Download or read book Storyteller Guitar written by Doug Larson and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every object around us contains the history of all the people and places that brought it here. But rarely is that history explored. In this book, instead of breaking an object apart to reveal those stories, they are told by building the object a guitar named Storyteller from scratch. The text and illustrations reveal the rich lives of the people, places, and projects that breathed life into it. The stories range from people who were pioneers in landscape restoration to those involved with automobile manufacturing. The places include the high arctic, tropical forests, and vertical cliffs of the Niagara Escarpment. The projects include stage plays, laser physics and the establishment of the first Canadian diamond mines. By bringing together these disparate stories in one musical instrument the book makes the argument that art, science, and history are part of everybody’s life.
