Claude Kinane, E. Brooke Nicholls and Charles Barrett rented a cottage on the Olinda Creek on the edge of Mt Evelyn, Lilydale and Mooroolbark between 1903 and 1907. The three men dubbed their cottage ''Walden Hut'' and called themselves ''The woodlanders''. Their writings appeared in detail in the New Idea. The aim of this book is to detail their place in the contexts of their initial obeisance to Thoreau; of their interactions with other Australian naturalists, particularly in Victoria; of their writings; and of their efforts to inspire the coming generations. In doing so, themes pertaining to nature writing in general are addressed. -- (p.4-5)

"A crash site memorial for a daughter is disturbed by road workers, a son goes missing after an earthquake, a husband struggles with his wife going into dementia care, grandparents meet-up with a grandchild they lost contact with when his parents divorced, a late-in-life relationship is broken apart when his health declines, a couple who lease out their basement flat discover a former tenant has been linked to a murder ...Each of Karen Phillips’ stories is like the glass houses in the title story – small pieces, some opaque and some translucent, that offer glimpses of ordinary families whose lives are coming apart, sometimes in ways imperceptible to the outside eye. Memories of a kinder past are one way to pull things back together and simple humanity is another, but sometimes the answer is where you least expect it."--Publisher information.

Mom taught me many valuable lessons, some of them having to do with daily tasks, some about relating to others, some about being self-determined and others just for fun. She was one of the most efficient and independent people I have ever known. She set the example for me about living and ultimately about dying. In her final years, she presented a strong front as that same woman who instructed us, disciplined us, and cared for us when we were young, began to lose her memory. This proud and capable woman was a victim of Alzheimer''s. The tables turned and this strong, independent woman was forced to become dependent in her final years.

If any single, universal truth binds the brotherhood of man, it is this: Kids love hitting targets. Or at least aiming for them. The video game industry owes its existence to this reality - but the virtual world pales in comparison to the satisfying real-life THONK! of a palpable hit. Celebrate that shoot-''em-up energy with Coin Blasters, a collection of competitive table-top target games in a book. The coin blasters themselves are sturdy plastic chutes we''ve painstakingly custom-molded to hold a coin steady and upright on its edge. With a simple flick of a finger, and a smidgen of practice, anyone can send that coin zooming with surprising speed and accuracy straight at the target. And what targets! The book is full of awesome paper engineering, resulting in a wide array of games. Take slap shots at a hockey goalie, shoot baskets at the Hot Shot Blaster Hoop, knock the teeth out of a monster''s mouth, flick a nickel field foal, and rescue pennies from a well-protected, uber-fortified, piggy bank prison. Ten different games test your coin-blasting mastery and let you dominate the kitchen table. Now that''s how you manage your money.

Altogether it''s an irresistible invitation to self-expression. Turns out the only thing cooler than doodling on white is doodling in white.

This book is crammed with questions you''ve never thought of before. Amazingly, you already know all the right answers. That''s because every question on every page is about you. And nobody is a bigger expert on you than you. What About You? features 20 different surveys for tween girls to take and share with friends. Subjects range from food to fashion to friendship to the monumental Love, Crushes, & Stuff. Some of the questions are seriously thought-provoking, some are just plain silly, and all of them center on the most spellbinding subject in the world: you. The book itself is a functional three-ring binder, with a generous notepad of response forms mounted on the inside back cover. Writing on the response forms, not the book pages, means the same survey can be taken over and over again, by you, by your friends, by your family -- basically, anyone who is willing to share too much information. And using the translucent, glittery, bendy pencil makes answering the wacky questions even more fun... like that''s even possible.

This collection of 30 confidence-building quizzes includes a 70-page notepad and a stylish pen to jot down answers and compare results with friends. Full color. Consumable.

Offers the information you need to make your phone your own. This title includes more than 100 stickers and sticky back jewels to add sparkle with minimum effect.
