After discovering that a renegade Proxy's shady dealings are messing with citizens' brain chemistry, he vows to extinguish the threat. But when he tracks Liv down, there's one problem: her memories are gone. Can Adrian bring himself to condemn her for crimes she doesn't remember?

Narrated by Junior Nyong'O.An inspiring and accessible picture book biography of the beloved naturalist, broadcaster, and documentarian David Attenborough stunningly illustrated by a Caldecott Honoree. As a boy, David loved exploring the wild places near his home in England, collecting fossils, rocks, and newts. When he grew older, he got a job in television, where he had an idea for a new kind of show: He would travel to wild places all over the world to film animals in their natural habitats. Over the span of seven decades, David's innovative documentaries have been treasured by millions of people. But as time went on, he noticed the wild places he loved were shrinking. What could David do to help? What could we all do? This is the story of David Attenborough. It's also the story of our planet, which has changed rapidly over the course of one person's lifetime, and a clarion call for us to do our part to bring back the wild places and protect the creatures who call Earth home.Pre-K to 3.- Subjects: Children's audiobooks.; Biographies.; Attenborough, David, 1926-; Naturalists; Television personalities;

- Goodbye : a first conversation about grief / by Madison, Megan,author.; Nyong'O, Junior,narrator.; Roxas, Isabel,illustrator.(CARDINAL)400908; Playaway Products, LLC,issuing body.(CARDINAL)868990;
Narrated by Junior Nyong'O.A picture book edition of the board book about grief, offering adults the opportunity to begin important conversations with young children in an informed, safe, and supported way. Developed by experts in the fields of early childhood and activism against injustice, this topic-driven picture book offers clear, concrete language and compelling imagery to introduce the concept of grief. This book aims to normalize the topic of death by discussing what it means and how it feels to experience loss. It centers around several questions that arise about grief and honest, simple ways to answer them. While young children are avid observers and questioners of their world, adults often shut down or postpone conversations on complicated topics because it's hard to know where to begin. Research shows that talking about tough issues from the age of two not only helps children understand what they see, but also increases self-awareness, self-esteem, and allows them to recognize and confront things that are unfair, like discrimination and prejudice.Pre-K to K.- Subjects: Children's audiobooks.; Grief in children;
