Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The most unusual baseball facts you'll ever find Behind the game lies a wealth of science, folklore, mathematics, psychology--and a very colorful past. Whether they are die-hard fans or casual spectators, readers will be captivated by this collection of fascinating, little-known facts. For example did you know that the yarn in a single baseball is long enough to reach from the street to the top of the Empire State Building or that in the old days playoff tickets were sold for people to stand in the outfield: fans might move to help the home team but not budge an inch for opposing players. With lots of humorous, colorful illustrations, charts, and graphs, Baseballogy explores such diverse topics as the materials used to make the balls (including fish eyes, once used for the core ), freak injuries (one player was stabbed by a bat ), and the chances of making it to the show (1 in about 14,000 baseball playing kids will get to the big leagues). Entertaining, informative, and highly visual, Baseballogy is the perfect sports book for all kids--especially reluctant boy readers. Martchenko, Michael (illustrator). …

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. FINALIST FOR THE GOVERNOR GENERAL'S LITERARY AWARD FINALIST FOR THE OLA SILVER BIRCH AWARD The literary scavenger hunt of a lifetime, starring an endlessly endearing non-binary tween Zed Watson loves a few things: their name (which they chose themself!), their big rambunctious family, and--oh yeah--monsters. When Zed discovered the mystery surrounding an unpublished novel called The Monster's Castle, they were completely hooked. Now Zed is a member of a small but dedicated legion devoted to finding the long-buried text. When a breakthrough discovery leads Zed to the route that they are sure will take them to the treasure, they know it's time for a road trip. And with the help of their shy, flora-loving neighbour, Gabe, and his sister, Sam, a geologist who is driving back to college in Arizona, Zed and company are soon off on a wild adventure following cryptic clues. But it's not all fun and games. Gabe doesn't like Zed's snacks, Sam is a bossy driver with total command of the ancient Impreza's stereo, and Zed is often misgendered. It's a good thing they also encounter kind strangers, potato-themed dance-offs and lots and lots of ice cream along the way. If Zed and Gabe can combine their strengths, survive Sam's wrath and best the greedy historian who's also hot on the book's trail, they just might find the greatest treasure of all. Co-authored by child-parent duo Basil Sylvester and Kevin Sylvester, this is a vibrant and enormous-hearted story about friendship, identity and belonging. It features illustrations by celebrated author and illustrator Kevin Sylvester, and an Own Voices perspective based on Basil's experience. Sylvester, Kevin (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. For almost 10 years, I spoke to captivated students and professionals about the Lost or Found analogy that covers critical everyday life-changing issues on leadership, relationship, management, and the complexities of dealing with change, personal growth and self-restoration. One of the commonality of concerns raised by those surveyed for this book was why most employees joined their corporations with a high sense of commitment, enthusiasm and satisfaction and over time, lost their motivation and focus and literarily functioned as non-inspired employees driven solely by financial needs and/or dependence? Over the years I observed how some of these professionals took on increasing levels of stress and anxiety over problems they couldn't control. To assist with strategies of addressing stress and change, I began to discuss a concept known as peaceful anxiety. Peaceful Anxiety simply means, If you do not have the ability to change events and situations that impact your life, do not overreact to such situations. As we develop the ability to control our reactions to problems or issues outside our realms of control, we begin to develop a higher sense of peace. In 2002, a set of questions were developed and over 1500 undergraduate and graduate students with professional careers ranging from mid to executive levels were surveyed. My overall findings lead to this book being titled, Are You Lost or Found? Ever Wondered: . The percentages of women who prefer male bosses? . The percentages of men who prefer female bosses? . Why 62% of professionals are Lost? . If you are Lost or Found.…
