KINGFISHER • JULY 2013 JUVENILE NONFICTION / LANGUAGE ARTS

CREATED & ILLUSTRATED BY SIMON BASHER, WRITTEN BY MARY BUDZIK Basher Basics: Creative Writing

Simon Basher’s science titles have been a hit with all readers. This book puts his fresh spin on creative writing instruction.

From the bestselling illustrator whose friendly take on science has revolutionized our understanding of everything from the periodic table to the universe, comes a fresh take on creative writing as only Basher can do it. Meet Plot, one of the many 'Schemers and Dreamers' who keeps a story running and its events moving in the right order; Atmosphere, known as a 'Scene Setter' because her job entails filling a scene with suspense, drama, or comedy; a cast of 'Heroes and Villains' including Protagonist and Narrator; and chatty, talkative Wordsmiths like Dialogue to name one in particular. Basher Basics: Creative Writing is a persuasive guide that includes tons of detail on the building blocks of narrative and what makes creative writing work.

Simon Basher is the creator and illustrator of more than ten

best-selling concept books for children including The Periodic

Table, Physics, Biology, Astronomy, Math, and Punctuation.

Based in London and Tokyo and specializing in “graphic

surrealism”, Basher's original artwork is regularly exhibited

and sold in the UK, Europe, the US and the Asia. Find out

KINGFISHER • JULY 2013 JUVENILE NONFICTION / MATHEMATICS

BY MUKUL PATEL, ILLUSTRATED BY SUPRIYA SAHAI We've Got Your Number

An entertaining and informative guide on how math shapes the world.

Numbers are all around us. They can explain where electricity comes from, why we look like our parents, why moons revolve around planets, and why it's so hard to win the lottery. Arranged in thematic chapters that are easy for the non-mathematical mind to navigate and understand, We've Got Your Number investigates all aspects of math and numbers. As an added bonus, each chapter also contains concise and accessible mathematical fun facts in one of four forms: Good at Sums, which profiles great mathematicians; Try This at Home, entertaining number games and puzzles; What's Your Problem?, common real-life math challenges like calculating the size of Earth; and What's In a Number? a fact-file "biography" filled with iconic numbers such as zero, 1, 3, "unlucky" 13 and 1 million.

Mukul Patel worked for DK for some years, developing and

editing science & technology titles. He developed the content,

including animations in liaison with designers, for the Maths

section of the DK Encyclopedia of Science II CD-ROM. He was

the consultant/contributing editor on Scientific American's

How Things Work Today (Marshall Edns) and has also

written technology articles for NASDAQ magazine.

BY SEAN CALLERY Life Cycles: Forest

With clear text and punchy photographs, this is a captivating introduction to habitats and ecosystems of rivers.

This series reveals the life cycles of eleven animals which link together to create three different food chains. At the end of the book a simple overview helps readers understand how the three food chains interact to create a food web-the perfect first introduction to this core science concept. The world’s forests are rich habitats that support an incredible diversity of life from the smallest insects to amazing predators at the top of the food chain such as the tiger and the red-tailed hawk. This book explores how eleven of these creatures—from temperate forests in Asia, North America, and southern Africa—link together to create three food chains. The combination of bright design, clear structure, and appealing wildlife makes this a great introduction to life in forests around the world.

Sean Callery is an elementary school teacher in addition to

The beautiful photography, and age-appropriate writing make this the perfect introduction to understanding the delicate balance of life in a river ecosystem.

This series reveals the life cycles of eleven animals in a particular habitat which link together to create three food chains. At the end, a simple overview helps readers understand how the three food chains interact to create a food web.

Because the environment of the desert makes resources scarce, the animals that live here are intimately interconnected. This book explores three food chains in three of the globe’s driest regions: the Kalahari in Africa, the Australian Outback, and the US Mojave Desert. With a clear explanation of each lifecycle, the book also color-codes the foodchains for easy navigation. From the smallest inhabitants like the termite right through to the predators like the Jackal, young readers will thoroughly understand how each animal is critical for sustaining the desert ecosystem...

Each book in this essential series reveals the life cycles of ten animals in a particular habitat which link together to create three food chains. At the end of the book a simple overview helps readers understand how the three food chains interact to create a food web- the perfect first introduction to this core science concept. The unique challenges of living in the world’s highest places require special adaptations to survive and thrive, from the lowest animals on the food chain like the mosquito and the earwig, right through fascinating top level predators like the elusive snow leopard and the wolverine. This title examines three food chains in the globe’s highest regions: the Andes of South America, the Rockies in North America, and the Himalaya of Asia.
