In the nearby City of Green Meadow Burrows, there lives a humble guinea pig whose name is Biscuit. At first glance, Biscuit looks like many other guinea pigs. She is small, round and chubby with golden fur that grows in all directions. Her eyes are shiny beads of black. Like all guinea pigs, she eats a vegetarian diet. Her favorite foods are hay, lettuce and all sorts of carrots, whether big or small, orange or yellow, or shredded and chopped. She is neither a genius nor an athlete nor a rock star; she can do nothing to make herself rich and famous. Biscuit is a very ordinary guinea pig, you see. So, you might be left wondering why anyone would take notice of her. Why!? Well, it's because she has accomplished greatness by living her life with a loving heart and good stewardship. How did she do this? Well, let's peek into her world and see what we find!As you accompany Biscuit during her story, you will meet several animal characters, as follows (in the order of their appearance):Coal, the friendly Poodle who prefers to be called a "Goldendoodle";Mr. Scrub Jay, the tame, Western Scrub Jay who lives in Biscuit's garden;Boris, the salad-eating, Russian tortoise;Lily Muttsarella, the Maltepoo dog who plays in dual character roles as Miss Sugar and Police Officer Lily;Spirit, the docile, Ringneck dove;andDaisy, the basket-ball playing, Lesser Sulfur-Crested Cockatoo.Biscuit teaches us that it is more important to be loving than it is to be loved for our importance. In her adventures, she loves everyone and never behaves like a bully; she is honest; she takes a stand against injustice; she is charitable and shares with others; she takes responsibility for her actions; she does her best, even when it's difficult; she remembers to love herself and have fun; and she appreciates and gives thanks to God and everyone who demonstrates kindness. This book offers an alternative to the violent images that bombard today's youth on television, in the movies, in the virtual world of electronic games and in the real world.

The reign of Queen Elizabeth I, which spanned over forty years, was a time of economic stability, with outstanding successes in the fields of maritime exploration and defence. The period also saw a huge expansion in trade, the creation of new industries, a rise in social mobility, urban isation and the development of an extraordinary literary culture. Elizabeth I & Her People explores the stories of those individuals whose achievements brought about these changes in the context of an emerging national identity, as well as giving a fascina ting glimpse into their way of life through accessories and artefacts. The book, which accompanies a major exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, London, features portraits of the Queen and her courtiers, including explorers and sea captains such as Francis Drake and Martin Frobisher, statesmen and soldiers such as William Cecil, Lord Burghley and Christopher Hatton and enchanting portraits of the Queen's female courtiers such as Bess of Hardwick, Countess of Shrewsbury, and Elizabeth Vernon, Countes s of Southampton. However, from the mid - sixteenth - century interest in portraiture broadened, as members of a growing wealthy middle class sought to have their likenesses captured for posterity. The book includes intriguing lesser - known images of Elizabeth an merchants, lawyers, goldsmiths, butchers, calligraphers, playwrights and artists - all of whom contributed to the making of a nation and a new world power.

Filled with humor and wisdom, My Life as an Experiment will immerse you in eye-opening situations and change the way you think about the big issues of our time—from love and work to national politics and breakfast cereal.

Between is a sweeping story rich in Florida history with a cast of memorable characters who battle wild animals, rustlers, Confederate deserters, mosquitoes, starvation, hurricanes, and freezes to carve a kingdom out of the Florida swamp. In this volume, meet young Zech MacIvey, who learns to ride like the wind through the Florida scrub on Ishmael, his marshtackie horse, his dogs, Nip and Tuck, at this side.
