Books with author Christian Dorion

The world is rich with marvellous forests and amazing communities of plants, animals, fungi and minute creatures that populate them. Learn all about the woods, experience each sound and smell and explore all the hidey-holes and cosy dens of its dwellers with this big and beautiful book all about forests, published in partnership with The Woodland Trust, the largest woodland conservation charity in the UK. Marvel at the peaceful twilight of the deciduous forest, where birds gather twigs, bats shelter in tree trunks and the carpet of fallen leaves becomes small creatures' homes. Spot a bald eagle soaring high up in the winter sky through the towering green giants of the redwood forest. Discover all the noises in the Amazonian rainforest, where most creatures live in the tree canopy together, creating a symphony of sounds. Each forest has something special to offer and is invaluable. Into the Forest is a celebration of trees and wildlife all around the world. Children will find out how trees change colour through seasons, how to plant their own trees and the importance of protecting our forests through sustainability. At the end of the book there's a glossary, full of fun trees with surprising names!

A brief guide to Christianity based on the teachings of the new testament.Some excerpts:"However believing in God today is more relevant than ever. Christianity and the message of Jesus Christ is all about our relationship with the people around us.""Those who believe and imitate Jesus Christ in the showing of love to others essentially are guaranteed their own resurrection and spiritual continuity after death. There is life after death (salvation) for all who follow Jesus Christ in their behavior and treatment of others.""Of course certain things have changed in the last 2000 years. When the new testament was written women 's rights were different to what they are now. Also beliefs in premarital sex and gay rights have changed. So some of the material in the new testament is old fashioned. However this is no reason to dismiss the whole text."
