Based on a real-life adventure holiday, this book will delight young and old alike. Mudpoo is a happy, curious, five-year-old boy. Mudpoo, Harry, his loyal dog (who has been known to talk to Mudpoo), Gus the talking Kombi van, and the likeable Captain Pete, embark on a journey that leads them to many (true) exciting Aussie adventures where they learn about Australian wildlife and animals, strange and different creatures, scary forests, and all kinds of wonderful new adventures. Each book in this series contains ten different and exciting stories. This whole series is designed and illustrated to ensure that even reluctant readers find the great adventures very easy to read.
Captain Pete, his son, Mudpoo and Mudpoo's talking dog Harry once again have a great time working with the environment and getting rid of the awful, mean pirates who want to kill all the rabbits and export our sacred, protected animals to the overseas blackmarket -- another winner!
This is the fourth book in the Mudpoo Adventure series where children and animals make clever environmental choices that adults, often blinded by greed, are unable to understand. Mudpoo and the Secret of the Rainforest makes an important statement in the climate change debate. It allows the reader to become pro-active by gaining knowledge of how to purchase 'Certified Sustainable Palm Oil' products and more! It makes strong connections to the Melbourne Zoo, orangutans and the 'Don't Palm Us Off' campaign where readers can get involved. The book is aimed at young readers in the 7-11 age group who are environmentally aware and want to make a difference. It raises awareness about the destruction of rainforests and the impact that we have in relation to purchasing products that contain non-certified palm oil. The story also refers to a 'secret recipe' which is made from a live endo-spore; 'bacillus amyloliquefaciens' which in 'real-life' is currently being set up as a research project by Prof. Peter Dart from Queensland University to determine if it will reduce the methane output from cows when added to their hay. If it works it will be a 'huge' breakthrough and can have an enormous impact to reduce methane emissions from cows in Australia and globally (if the University of QLD research is successful). It might also stop mould growing on hay and reduce hayshed fires. This book contains 'real' links to help solve 'Climate Change Issues' and allows the reader to become part of the solution. Overall my goal is to link a creative humorous light-hearted story using real issues and real locations with a powerful message and real science that allows the readers to be proactive to make their own choices to reduce their impact on 'climate change'. It will create discussions to engage, encourage and empower young people to do more research and allow them to find their own voice to make a difference for the future.
Following the brilliant success of the first book in this great new Australian series The (True) Adventures of Mudpoo, this second book follows close on its heels. These books are especially designed and illustrated to ensure that all children, even reluctant readers, find these great adventures very easy to read. In this book, another very exciting (true) Mudpoo adventure, Captain Pete, Mudpoo, and Harry the talking dog, travel in Gus the talking Kombi van to the magical Iluka World Heritage Nature Reserve. Aside from ten fantastic adventures, the book also contains a message for our kids about the importance of protecting this beautiful reserve for future generations.

Crack young horseman Peter Klein left home at the age of sixteen and plunged head first into the rough and tumble world of champion gallopers, top trainers and racing personalities. Join Klein in the ride of his life as he tells how it was growing up in racing stables working for the top trainers in the seventies including Tommy Smith, Bart Cummings and Geoff Murphy.
"Is Peter Klein Australia's answer to Dick Francis? As with Francis, Klein knows the territory intimately with his autobiography of racing life, A Strapper's Tale, selling out within months. He turns out to be a dab hand at crime fiction, too. Klein is a natural writer. This is a cracking yarn, written in an action-packed, unpretentious style, underscored vividly by the author's detailed knowledge of the racing world." THE AGE Pick of the Week John Punter, professional gambler and amateur private investigator, has seen his fair share of crime and shady dealings, both on the race track and off it. So when the daughter of a bookmaker friend is abducted, following hot on the heels of a gruesome murder after an abduction-gone-wrong, Punter's offer of help is gladly accepted. But then, just when everything seems to be going right, a local trainer hits a run of unusual bad luck and a young jockey dies under suspicious circumstances. With the help of a journalist friend, Kate, Punter begins to put the pieces together, and finds himself drawn into a tangled web of underworld crimes that are much more sinister than he had anticipated...
Religious beliefs and institutions continue to be the cause of many problems around the world. Over the last 100,00+ years humankind has gone through three different phases in trying to understand and explain how things came to be: The Magical, The Religious and now The Scientific. Is it now time to dispense with mythology and superstitions as a way to live our lives and fully embrace the scientific method? This book incisively scrutinises religions, refuting their claims by assessing the evidence from cosmology, evolutionary biology, theology, philosophy, morality and the scientific method. The analysis is sprinkled throughout with humour and quotes to keep the reader engaged from start to finish.
The novel, "The Dancing Valkyrie," by Adirondack author Peter Klein, is the story of a young woman, Mary Hoffman, who is a librarian by day and who works nights as an erotic dancer at a topless club in Schenectady, NY. While on a hike in the wilds of the Adirondack Mountains of northern New York, Mary Hoffman falls under the spell of a very rich woman who turns her into a vampire. The novel follows her rapid acclimation into being what she was born to be - a vampire with a lust for both blood and sex, and draws to a conclusion when she meets a vampire who lives to kill other vampires - and whose name is Van Helsing. In an odd way, this is a coming of age story. Mary adjusts to what she has become and tries to carry on the life she led before becoming a vampire. She makes friends with some humans and feels an obligation to protect them from humans and other vampires. She doesn't see herself as evil. Rather she sees being a vampire as a gift she needs to learn how to wisely use.
Comprising four one-act comic vaudevilles and four short stories adapted for the stage by Michael Frayn, The Sneeze introduces readers to a less familiar selection of work by one of the greatest precursors of modern drama. First published in 1989, this reissue includes The Sneeze; The Alien Corn; The Bear; The Evils of Tobacco; The Inspector-General; Swan Song; The Prospect, and Plots. Michael Frayn's translations of Chekhov's work marry the expertise of the translator with the innate understanding of a master dramatist and are widely regarded as the truest, most authentic renderings of Chekhov's work: 'His keen imaginative sympathy with the great Russian dramatist extends beyond translation . . . But translation is an art at which he excels.' Spectator
