Instructions Not Supplied is the account of one family’s experience in adopting three children, each of whom turned out to have special needs, and the challenges they have faced along the way. Some of the difficult situations they have faced are simply part of a family life; others are as a direct result of the children's disabilities and difficulties, including autism, attention deficit hyper-activity disorder, foetal alcohol syndrome, attachment disorder and sensory issues. A story of adoption, autism and coming together as a family, this book describes with honesty and humour how the behaviour of the children has often challenged the adults around them. It also explores the process of diagnosis and the difficulty of getting the right support both for the children and their parents, with insights for all parents and teachers of children with complex needs. The book is a unique insight into the twin challenges of adoption and disability, an invaluable read for prospective adopters and adoptive parents as well as natural parents of children with additional support needs. It is equally valuable for practitioners, as it gives an insight into the family life of those parenting such children and how best to support them.

The book features an engaging picture book biography of Ruth Patrick, a pioneering scientist and environmental advocate. It highlights her crucial role in raising awareness about pollution and its dangers. Through vivid illustrations and captivating storytelling, readers are introduced to Patrick's significant contributions to environmental science and her lasting impact on conservation efforts.

Strachopedie představuje abecední přehled všemožných hrůz a běsů. Navštívíte jeskyně na Borneu, kde spolu v černočerné tmě žijí miliony netopýrů, švábů, pavouků a krys. Seznámíte se s příšerami – ať už bájnými, nebo skutečnými. Poznáte šestici smrtících hadů, děsivé pavouky i australský strom, jemuž je radno se obloukem vyhnout. A dozvíte se i spoustu praktických informací, třeba jak se dostat z tekoucího písku, ale také čím postrašit druhé. Naučíte se napsat duchařský příběh, uspořádat seanci, vyrobit falešnou krev anebo obalamutit rodinu, aby si myslela, že u vás doma straší.
