From the first 17th- century Spanish missions to Johnson Space Center''s mission control, no other state exemplifies the independent spirit of the frontier more than Texas. It''s the largest state in the continental US, hosting 11 different distinct ecological regions, from desert valleys to wooded mountain slopes. Explore the brush country of the Rio Grande and step among the yucca and cacti of the south Texan desert. Walk through the dusty forts and settlements of the Big Bend and ride horseback through a ranch larger than all of Rhode Island. See the Lone Star State in this photographic tribute of everything from the High Plains to the Gulf Coast.

It''s the core of American power and the seat of its history. Washington DC lies along the Potomac River and under the warm Southern air, among green parks peppered with pink Japanese cherry blossom trees. DC''s skyline is low and sprawling, its architecture a mix of neoclassical, gothic, modern, and Georgian revival styles. The broad and open National Mall has played host to political protests and presidential inaugurations alike. The Bill of Rights, the Constitution, and thousands of other important American documents live within the thick walls of the National Archive. Step into the hub of America''s past, present, and future, in the photographic tribute to the nation''s capitol.

The girls of the Science Squad are back, and they`re in the middle of the biggest mystery yet! When Sue`s Aunt Rose invites the three girls to visit her on Vancouver Island for the last week of summer vacation, it seems like the trip will be a nice break. Nicole, Gina, and Sue are eager to explore the old-growth forests near Tofino, go mountain biking, and maybe even try surfing. But Rose has just inherited 50 hectares of forested land from her uncle, a renowned smuggler and notorious practical joker. When Rose`s new friend, Tyler, starts acting suspiciously, the girls begin to think there`s more at stake than just an old cabin in the middle of the woods. Using their knowledge of science, the girls reveal a series of clues in the mysterious will. But can they solve the puzzle of the smuggler`s secret before it`s too late? Tanya Lloyd Kyi and the Canadian Association of Girls in Science (CAGIS) team up to deliver the second book in the Science Squad Adventure series.
