City girl hates the cottage. But she hasn’t tried the pie yet. Minnow is bitter, because she's spending the summer with elderly relatives in the middle of nowhere. As the season progresses, however, she learns to appreciate the loons, the lake, and the wisdom of her three quirky cabinmates. Will Minnow swim all the way to Picnic Island, or will she give up before achieving her goal? What is the reason for her great-aunt’s silence? And why did her neighbor’s house catch on fire? During her stay, Minnow performs rowboat ballet, meets a boisterous friend her own age, and contemplates life from a boulder she calls her own. Change is happening on Birch Lake, and some people aren’t ready for it. "The Summer of the Purple Paddle was both a sad and lovely summer, but it was more lovely than sad." A cherished classic, this second edition of That Silent Summer—first published in 1999 by Scholastic Canada—is sure to delight a new generation of middle-grade readers. If you like books with endearing characters and a nostalgic feel, you’ll love Elaine Medline’s poignant multigenerational novel. "This is a thoughtful, sweet summer story. . . The beauties of the natural world and of family affection shine through the doom of development and loss, and human eccentricity is quietly celebrated." A Guide to Canadian Children's Books ". . . quirky, engaging, lovely. . . Medline has the knack of sparking interest with oblique but loaded comments, giving perspective not just on the maturing Minnow, but also on the narrator herself, who learns and grows as much as Minnow over the course of the summer." Toronto Star ". . . a compelling tale. . ." Ottawa Citizen

Over the past 20 years dramatic declines have taken place in UK insect populations. Eventually, such declines must have knock-on effects for other animals, especially high profile groups such as birds and mammals. This authoritative, yet accessible account details the current state of the wildlife in Britain and Ireland and offers an insight into the outlook for the future. Written by a team of the country's leading experts, it appraises the changes that have occurred in a wide range of wildlife species and their habitats and outlines urgent priorities for conservation. It includes chapters on each of the vertebrate and major invertebrate groups, with the insects covered in particular depth. Also considered are the factors that drive environmental change and the contribution at local and government level to national and international wildlife conservation. Essential reading for anyone who is interested in, and concerned about, UK wildlife.

**THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER** "An unforgettable—and Hollywood-bound—new thriller... A mix of Hitchcockian suspense, Agatha Christie plotting, and Greek tragedy." —Entertainment Weekly The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband—and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive. Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London. Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....

Lee Mandelo's debut Summer Sons is a sweltering, queer Southern Gothic that crosses Appalachian street racing with academic intrigue, all haunted by a hungry ghost. Andrew and Eddie did everything together, best friends bonded more deeply than brothers, until Eddie left Andrew behind to start his graduate program at Vanderbilt. Six months later, only days before Andrew was to join him in Nashville, Eddie dies of an apparent suicide. He leaves Andrew a horrible inheritance: a roommate he doesn’t know, friends he never asked for, and a gruesome phantom that hungers for him. As Andrew searches for the truth of Eddie’s death, he uncovers the lies and secrets left behind by the person he trusted most, discovering a family history soaked in blood and death. Whirling between the backstabbing academic world where Eddie spent his days and the circle of hot boys, fast cars, and hard drugs that ruled Eddie’s nights, the walls Andrew has built against the world begin to crumble. And there is something awful lurking, waiting for those walls to fall. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
