Jennifer Ackerman's well-realised task in this book is to relay just how different and advanced ‘the bird way' truly is. ![]() The last five years have seen what could be described as a revolution in studying bird behaviour, with one scientist suggesting that there are two ways to evolve intelligence: "the mammal way and the bird way". Ornithologists get to dedicate their working lives to such observations and the more they observe avian behaviour, the more complex and clever it is revealed to be. ![]() ![]() The Bird Way by Jennifer Ackerman (Corsair, London, 2020).ĭespite the accent often being on identification, perhaps the real joy of birding is the time it gives for reflection, observing the creatures' behaviour and activities as days and seasons pass. ![]() ![]() ![]() Let the candle burn for a few minutes and then put it out.įor the rest of the year, make sure to give proper care to your plants, and you should have a wonderful garden.

Ann Radcliffe has been called the "Great Enchantress" of her age and this is one of her finest novels. Download cover art Download CD case insert The Romance of the ForestĪ Gothic novel famously mentioned by Jane Austen in "Northanger Abbey" as an inspiration for the romantic ideals and supernatural fears of Catherine. ![]() ![]() It is science fiction with elements of Murakami’s own personal folklore and mythology peppered throughout to remind us, just when everything seems relatively “normal” and “real” that something wholly different and unknown is happening beneath the surface.īut to a Western audience, Murakami’s work is rarely considered science fiction. ![]() In the time between the last train at midnight and the first train at dawn, Murakami guides us into an alternate universe – or, really, a multiverse – that exists in the corners and alleyways of what in daylight was an unassuming and ostensibly understood city. After Dark blends the metaphysical and otherworldly with the gritty realism and familiarity of Tokyo to create an atmosphere that disrupts and entangles the reader’s senses. ![]() After Dark was my introduction to Haruki Murakami’s work, and since then having read nearly his entire catalog – including those novels considered by critics vastly superior like Kafka on the Shore and his most recent masterpiece 1Q84, it remains my unquestionable favorite Murakami. ![]() ![]() The illustrations are fantastic and eye-catching. They would make a good toy to bring along when you’re out with a child because they’re very durable. These board books are sturdy and designed for little hands. This should therefore prove an easy transition for younger readers who will one day graduate to learning about these animals’ full adventures. ![]() It is a pleasant introduction to these characters for young readers and it contains some minor references to the storybooks. The stories are essentially a single-sentence description of what the particular animal likes to do and includes things like: rolling in the mud, climbing trees, or playing with friends. ![]() There is one for Hairy Maclary and others for his sidekicks: the pittery-pattery Zachary Quack Schnitzel von Krumm the dachshund with the very low tum and Slinky Malinki, a prowling, black cat. This collection contains four board books, each with a different central character. While this is enjoyable, it is no match for Lynley Dodd’s original storybooks. The Hairy Maclary and Friends Little Library stars these same beloved characters, but the stories are condensed down to a single sentence and designed for younger readers. The text featured excellent rhymes and delightful and whimsical prose. ![]() The stories were always wonderful reads in that the language was simplistic but extremely well-crafted. Hairy Maclary is a classic character from children’s books. BOOK REVIEW: Hairy Maclary and Friends Little Library by Lynley DoddĬhildren & Teenagers/Picture Books/Baby Books ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She lives in the middle of nowhere, and used to be a nurse, and she can, she tells him, nurse him back to health. Paul has a car crash – the irony – and is rescued from the wreck by Annie Wilkes, his "biggest fan". And then he writes an utterly different novel, Fast Cars, packed full of violence, and swearing, and catharsis. So, he does what any sane writer who wants to write other stories would do: he kills her off, in a book that, at the novel's start, is still unpublished. His main character, the wonderfully named Misery Chastain, is loved by his fans, but not so much by her author. Paul Shelton is a much-loved author of a specific kind of genre fiction: the bodice-ripper. Misery has no supernatural elements, focusing instead on a story that is actually desperately sad, and, to my mind, hugely personal to King. ![]() The books authored by that pseudonym, as I've harped on about before, were nastier in a way than King's traditional output their bad guys were more human, and the books less supernatural. It began life as what would have been the final Richard Bachman book before King killed him off. While I might have my hyperbole hat on, this book deserves it. ![]() |
