    Readers' Favorite 5 star logoLeon Berger

    Tense, authentic, compelling - a tumultuous 24 hours in Beijing, as witnessed by those involved. Each year, howling winds from the Gobi send desert grit swirling into Beijing which then mixes with the existing pollution, causing fluorescent yellow skies and toxic, throat-burning smog. On one such day in March, youthful activists decide to gather in Tiananmen Square right outside the Great Hall of the People where the National Congress is in session. They are understandably fearful of what can happen to protesters in China but none could have predicted the unthinkable scenario and far-reaching climax which takes place during that single 24 hour period.
    • Based on true experience: During his many years in Beijing, the author experienced every aspect of that vast city, including the climatic conditions described.

    My favorite part of the book was definitely Sarah?s companions, all of whom stole the show??it was quite heartwarming to see them forge a strong bond of friendship and loyalty to each other and to Sarah. ? Si Ning Yeoh for?Readers' Favorite?(4 Stars)

    Greystone Valley is a land of wizards, dragons, and warriors ? and one young girl who ends up there quite by accident when her idle wish is granted. Sarah discovers that not everything in the valley is as magic as she might've wished ? especially the nearly illiterate wizard, the mouse-sized dragon, and the warrior who can't stand the sight of blood. Being hunted isn't helping, either. Will Sarah survive this new life of hers, and can she make it home? And, more importantly, will she ever be the same again?

    "...that?s why John Morano?s books are important. He puts us in the minds of some lesser-known, perhaps unloved creatures. The octopus we all know, of course, but how many of us spare daily thoughts for a coelacanth or a petrel?" ? Andrew Sharpless, President of Oceana

    Glyde, Gonzo, and Azul have one thing in common: they?re all flying as flocks of one. Other than his father, Lup?, Glyde has never seen a pure Guadalupe petrel, so when he hears of a similar petrel in danger, he implores his father to join him in a daring rescue attempt. Along the way, Glyde is joined by Gonzo, an endangered ivory-billed woodpecker, Zomis, the last remaining passenger pigeon, and a barred owl who speaks only in Shakespearean English. Meanwhile, after losing his mate and being smuggled out of the shrinking Caatinga, Azul finds himself in the care of a celebrated conservationist. However, not everything is as it seems, and the Spix?s macaw must fight to return to the place he knows best. But with a disappearing habitat and without a mate, can his journey lead him home? The John Morano?Eco-Adventure Series?is back with a fourth installment that asks the question: What does it mean to be home in a changing world? As the climate warms and habitats are lost, will the man-flock help the birds before it's too late, or will these?flocks of one become flocks of none?

      From the author: Please don?t try to learn Tai Chi by rote memorization. That?s the usual way, and it?s a Confucian teaching device for a Confucian age. This book devotes nearly three hundred pages to fresh, original explanations of what Tai Chi is and how it works. You want my advice? Learn Tai Chi. Just however you can. It?s that good. But do yourself a favor and read these pages first. You?ll feel very empowered when you line up for that first lesson, and you?ll stay loose and light all the way through the learning curve. That?s important because you never reach the end of it. Tai Chi is all learning curve.

      "Sometimes it takes a book like Makoona to remind us just what amazing sights are lurking beneath the surface... It brings the ocean and its life to us... reminding us of its value and what needs to be done." ?Kathryn Fuller, President of World Wildlife Fund

      Welcome to the inspiring story of Binti, a female octopus who lives in the Makoona coral reef, and Kemar, a Cambodian boy who fishes the reef. As a mollusk without a shell, Binti believes she's missing something... but the reef is a dangerous place to search for anything, let alone the shell that will make her complete and let her communicate with the spirit-fish. But helped by her friends and a psychedelic octopus who speaks in Grateful Dead lyrics, the search is on. Fifteen-year-old Kemar, a boatperson fleeing the Khmer Rouge, fishes the waters around Makoona where he crosses the path of a strange octopus and befriends both a Vietnam vet and an old American mechanic who claims she was once a world-famous aviatrix. Makoona?will make you laugh out loud as it transports you into the world of the coral reef and takes you on an island adventure that never loses sight of environmental concerns, personal fulfillment, friendship, self-awareness, and the tenets of eco-literature that Morano created in his unforgettable first novel,?A Wing and a Prayer. Don't miss more adventures in Out There, Somewhere (#3) and Flocks of One (#4)!
