1945 was a hard time to be a child in Japan. Many had seen their cities destroyed by US bombers. Food, fuel and materials were in short supply. Yet spirits remained high.
In April 1945, Yoko Moriwaki started high school in Hiroshima, excited to be a prestigious 'Kenjo' girl and full of duty towards her parents, school and country. But the country was falling apart and in four months time her city would become the target for the first atomic bomb ever used as a weapon.
In her diary, Yoko provides an account of that time — when conditions were so poor that children as young as twelve were required to work in industry; when fierce battles raged in the Pacific and children like Yoko believed victory was near.
With additions by Yoko's relatives and fellow students, and an introduction by award-winning author Paul Ham,
Yoko's Diary
not only shows us the hopes, beliefs and daily life of a young girl in wartime Japan, it is a touching account of the consequences of the first nuclear bombing of a city.

When Winter — an Atlantic bottlenose dolphin — was just three months old, she was rescued from a crab trap off the east coast of Florida, her tail seriously damaged. She was rushed to Clearwater Marine Aquarium where she was cared for by a special team around the clock.
It wasn’t clear that Winter would survive but to everyone’s amazement, she did. Eventually, Winter’s tail fell off, which caused her to compensate by swimming with a side-to-side motion like a fish instead of an up-and-down motion like a dolphin. Over time, it was apparent that she was seriously damaging her spine.
Then something amazing happened: a team of experts from a renowned company that makes prosthetics for humans heard about Winter and decided to help. Now Winter is learning how to use a prosthetic tail and her odds for living the normal life of a dolphin are looking great — Winter is thriving and using her new tail with great command.
Winter is an inspiration to everyone, especially to children around the globe who face challenges themselves. With gorgeous photographs and an unbelievable story,
Winter’s Tail
promises to inspire and delight.

Lisa and Sol board the luxury ship St Louis in Hamburg, Germany on 13 May 1939.
They are Jewish, as are almost all of the passengers on board; although war has not been officially declared in Europe, the Nazis have been persecuting Jews for years. The
St Louis
' German captain Gustav Schroeder is determined to see his passengers to safety.
They set sail for Cuba and the atmosphere on the ship is optimistic, but as they learn that Hitler's propaganda has turned the country against them, the mood changes to despair.
Based on the true story of the last refugee ship to leave Germany in 1939 — the
St. Louis
— this powerful book tells the story of two of its passengers Lisa and Sol, who were children on board the ship. They were among the lucky ones to survive.
A powerful true story from the bestselling author of
The Diary of Laura's Twin
and
Hiding Edith

The truth about the assault on Gallipoli is finally being told
— in an action-packed graphic novel format!
Gallipoli: The Landing
takes the events of 25 April 1915 and presents them in a full-colour comic that's both action-packed and historically accurate. Rather than a botched attack planned by indifferent British generals, the Gallipoli campaign was carefully thought out and included an amphibious attack on the beach by Anzac officers.
Hugh Dolan and Mal Gardiner bring the real story to life, describing the lead-up and the attack on Gallipoli in detail — from both sides of the fighting. Including biographies of all the key military figures as well as detail about the preparations for the landing itself,
Gallipoli: The Landing
dispels many myths associated with the Gallipoli campaign and establishes some of the reasons why the campaign in the Dardanelles eventually failed.
