So many unexpected technological revolutions start happening at the same time that it’s hard for Myr and her friends to come to grips with them. When word of the inventions gets out, vultures gather—wanting the tech for themselves. Some of those people will kill to get what they want…

A never-before-published poem for children by the Nobel laureateIn the beginning there were just waveshammering at the obstacles . . .So begins a lovely, thought-provoking poem that Joseph Brodsky wrote in 1995. It is about the first discoverers of America -- fish, birds, then man. But it is also about a land that even today is full of secrets waiting to be discovered. Illustrated in collage and gouache by Vladimir Radunsky, this poem is, finally, a celebration of our world -- a world open to possibilities.
