For fans of Cheryl Strayed, the gripping story of a biologist's human-powered journey from the Pacific Northwest to the Arctic to rediscover her love of birds, nature, and adventure. During graduate school, as she conducted experiments on the peculiarly misshapen beaks of chickadees, ornithologist Caroline Van Hemert began to feel stifled in the isolated, sterile environment of the lab. Worried that she was losing her passion for the scientific research she once loved, she was compelled to experience wildness again, to be guided by the sounds of birds and to follow the trails of animals. In March of 2012, she and her husband set off on a 4,000-mile wilderness journey from the Pacific rainforest to the Alaskan Arctic, traveling by rowboat, ski, foot, raft, and canoe. Together, they survived harrowing dangers while also experiencing incredible moments of joy and grace -- migrating birds silhouetted against the moon, the steamy breath of caribou, and the bond that comes from sharing such experiences. A unique blend of science, adventure, and personal narrative, The Sun is a Compass explores the bounds of the physical body and the tenuousness of life in the company of the creatures who make their homes in the wildest places left in North America. Inspiring and beautifully written, this love letter to nature is a lyrical testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Winner of the 2019 Banff Mountain Book Competition: Adventure Travel

This is the second collection of stories about Bruno, an imaginative boy with a humorous personality.

In The Adventures of Caroline and the Time Machine, Vol. 1 of the series, Caroline traveled through time to find her parents after they had been helplessly sent into the future by a lightning strike to the mysterious time machine that Auntie Ann had given Charles. Caroline cleverly figured out how to operate the time machine and followed clues that reunited her with her parents...only to have all their hopes shattered by an unfortunate turn of events. A dragon had stolen the precious machine and flown away with it toward a distant island. Now, in Vol. 2, The Adventures of Caroline and the Emerald Dragon, you can follow Caroline as she and her parents embark on an epic journey across the Sea of Seahorses to the Emerald Isle. They are searching for the Emerald Dragon so that they can retrieve the time machine. Without it, they can never return to the past. Will they succeed? Let's find out...shall we?
