'Light bulbs, sound recordings, air-conditioning, a glass of clean tap water, a wristwatch, a glass lens': these everyday things are the subjects of Johnson's book. In six chapters on glass, cold, sound, clean, time and light he traces the histories of problems and the attempts to solve them - from Galileo's watching a pendulum swing in Pisa cathedral to atomic clocks keeping time in microseconds - and he considers how these scientific innovations have set in motion social change.

One day young Marici wishes for a new friend, and along comes a beautiful goose. Their meeting is part magic, part fable, and part love. Based on an ancient Chinese tale, the poetic text is gloriously illustrated by Caldecott Honor recipient Stephen T. Johnson. Poet Gary Snyder contributes beautiful Chinese calligraphy to make this a book to treasure.

Ali's life becomes more dangerous and exciting when she finds herself, with fellow travellers Mark and Will, racing between a chain of worlds to rescue an imprisoned child.
