"An octopus gets a big surprise when he chooses to pick on a tiny fish in the ocean"--
This sexy, explosive novel features three twenty-something women, one hot rich guy, two mega movie stars, and a devastating murder.
For most of us, the story of mammal evolution starts after the asteroid impact that killed the dinosaurs, but over the last 20 years scientists have uncovered new fossils and used new technologies that have upended this story. In Beasts Before Us, palaeontologist Elsa Panciroli charts the emergence of the mammal lineage, Synapsida, beginning at their murky split from the reptiles in the Carboniferous period, over three-hundred million years ago. They made the world theirs long before the rise of dinosaurs. Travelling forward into the Permian and then Triassic periods, we learn how our ancient mammal ancestors evolved from large hairy beasts with accelerating metabolisms to exploit miniaturisation, which was key to unlocking the traits that define mammals as we now know them. Elsa criss-crosses the globe to explore the sites where discoveries are being made and meet the people who make them. In Scotland, she traverses the desert dunes of prehistoric Moray, where quarry workers unearthed the footprints of Permian creatures from before the time of dinosaurs. In South Africa, she introduces us to animals, once called 'mammal-like reptiles', that gave scientists the first hints that our furry kin evolved from a lineage of egg-laying burrowers. In China, new, complete fossilised skeletons reveal mammals that were gliders, shovel-pawed Jurassic moles, and flat-tailed swimmers. This book radically reframes the narrative of our mammalian ancestors and provides a counterpoint to the stereotypes of mighty dinosaur overlords and cowering little mammals. It turns out the earliest mammals weren't just precursors, they were pioneers.
With the cheeky twist of Jon Klassen’s This Is Not My Hat and the graphic appeal of Mo Willems, Poor Little Guy will leave kids giggling…and begging for rereads! What do you do when you're so tiny that the bigger ocean creatures think you might even taste adorable? An itsy-bitsy, glasses-wearing fish is minding his own business when a playful (and hungry) octopus snatches him right up. Luckily, this poor little guy is not quite as innocent as he seems…and he has a BIG surprise up his sleeve! Told with wit, a wink, and a delightfully dark sense of humor, Poor Little Guy celebrates the very smallest...and all of their giant victories. Hand this cute but mighty book to fans of Bob Shea and Dan Krall.

Something is wrong in Idaho Falls. Bodies are appearing, stripped of their skin and disposed of in public places. There are no witnesses to the murders and no suspects. Brad Vansicle and Jeff 'Tark' Tarkelson are detectives in this small town and they have watched with growing horror as the murders increase in frequency. Unable to find any viable suspects all they can do is document the murders, collect what little evidence there is and wait for the killer to make a mistake. The Regs, a group of friends that eat at the North Highway Café every night, are talking about the day and life in general. Tonight one of The Regs is lost in his own world. He is lost in the horror of what he witnessed the night before; he doesn't know that what he has seen will pull this group of six friends into a terrifying secret. Before last night he was happy in his life. Before last night he was unaware. Now he knows about the dark. The Dark of Light.
