All Charged Up!
Award-winning author-illustrator Don Brown explores the history of electricity in this installment of the Big Ideas That Changed the World series. In 600 BCE, the Greek mathematician Thales observed a seemingly strange phenomenon: amber, when rubbed with a cloth, had the ability to attract lightweight objects like feathers, straw, and leaves. He had unknowingly discovered an electric charge. His experiments wouldn't be picked back up until about 2,000 years later, when another curious mind, inspired by the Greek word for amber (elektron), declared the rubbed object to have an invisible power: electricity. From phones to light bulbs to electric cars, electricity is something we can't live without today. Narrated by Jagadish Chandra Bose, a Bengali pioneer in radio technology from the previous century, All Charged Up! is the fascinating story of both tireless experimentation and accidental discovery, of inspiring human progress and dramatic scientific rivalries. Full of facts and colorful historical figures, this nonfiction graphic novel highlights key inventors and breakthroughs, through the earliest discoveries to the Age of Electricity to today, including: Musschenbroek's Leyden jar, which proved that electricity could be stored; founding father Benjamin Franklin's famous experiment using a kite as a lightning rod (don't try this at home!); a fierce competition between two Italian scientists that resulted in the first battery (and inspired Mary Shelley's Frankenstein); and Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison's War of the Currents; uses of wind and solar energy, and many more. Breaking down concepts like atoms, current, electromagnetism in a kid-friendly, accessible way, acclaimed author-illustrator Don Brown demonstrates how our world became plugged in and connected by electricity. Big Ideas That Changed the World is a graphic novel series that celebrates the hard-won succession of ideas that ultimately changed the world. Humor, drama, and art unite to tell the story of events, discoveries, and ingenuity over time that led humans to come up with a big idea and then make it come true.

Fantastic Journey
Imaginative fiction is a key to our future . . .Beauty, mystery, and adventure are vital to our spirits. Fantastic journeys invite us to search beyond what we see for truth, to dig deeper for courage.The soul of fantasy adventure benefits us on three levels: * The spiritual arena* The wide world of ideas* And the sphere we breathe in Why do the quest and the hero's journey draw us all? What difference does it make? Have you ever wondered how to find the best fantasy adventures for your children, yourself or your friends?We bring up select jewels from the deep and explore mountain troves of fiction with seventy authors to whet your appetite for the riches heaped on untold shores. The inspiring adventures we explore are beacons of extraordinary story. Most of them are lights by contrast, guiding us to enchanting lands of danger in the ocean of fantasy and speculative fiction. Heroes and heroines show us how to identify true gems and sell them not. How to discern enemies, friends, and endless possibilities with our inner eye, and to touch and to taste the truths of life in realms near and far.Take a deep breath before our first plunge into the sea of fantasy. And we will discover that which is the wealth of souls. ExcerptDiscover the Irresistible Beauty of Truth in FantasyWho does not wish that at least one moment in a beautiful epic fantasy were true? But some of those moments are true, and some of those places. The mystery of beauty, and sacrifice, the brave call of loyalty, and the torch of true relationships make us yearn for something we often cannot name. But we feel it in epic fantasies of courage, perseverance, and friendship that illuminate selflessness. We behold spiritual heights, physical depths, and in far realms we learn to refuse evil and choose good until it influences our adventures in our own sphere. Fantasy relates to deep reality.Some people may say there is little truth in the ocean of fantasy. They claim the very words fantasy fiction are a double negative of reality. Others say that fantasy involves Wicca, witchcraft, magick-at the very least, it means New Age muddled thought. They claim fantasy is not for serious Christians because it does not encourage spirituality and faith. They say idealism or fantasy doesn't apply to real life, and abstract ideas in fantasy rarely touch real things. In truth, real things and the ideals we hold are as closely connected as our body and spirit. Abstract ideals are intertwined in the physical and spiritual in every occurrence in the spatial universe. Every idea we believe, experience, and come to understand moves the breath, blood, and bone we call our body-because ideals first move our heart and spirit.Fantasy mirrors reality, showing the abstract in sharper facets. It casts reality back at us in a thousand reflections, penetrating deeper into our souls at times than any physical blade on this earth.
