Sputnik's guide to life on Earth / by Cottrell Boyce, Frank,author.(CARDINAL)343156;
Ages 8-12.The Blythes are a big, warm, rambunctious family who live on a small farm and sometimes foster children. Now Prez has come to live with them. But, though he seems cheerful and helpful, he never says a word. Then one day Prez answers the door to someone claiming to be his relative. This small, loud stranger carries a backpack, walks with a swagger and goes by the name of Sputnik. As Prez dithers on the doorstep, Sputnik strolls right past him and introduces himself to everyone in the household. Prez is amazed at the response. The family pat Sputnik on the head, call him a good boy and drop food into his mouth. It seems they all think Sputnik is a dog. It's only Prez who thinks otherwise. But Prez soon finds himself having to defend the family from the chaos and danger unleashed by Sputnik, as household items come to life - like a TV remote that fast-forwards people: 'Anyone can do it, it's just that people don't read the instructions properly'; and a toy lightsaber that entertains guests at a children's party, until one of them is nearly decapitated by it -- and Prez is going to have to use his voice to explain himself.530LAccelerated ReaderAccelerated Reader ARCILIP Carnegie Medal Shortlist, 2017School Library Journal's Best Books, 2017

The language of climate politics : fossil-fuel propaganda and how to fight it / by Guenther, Genevieve,author.(CARDINAL)895739;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction : why words matter in climate politics -- Alarmist -- Cost -- Growth -- "India and China" -- Innovation -- Resilience -- After words : walking the talk."The Language of Climate Politics dismantles fossil-fuel propaganda and offers new strategies for climate communication. It argues that partisans on the right and the left often repeat the same fossil-fuel talking points and that this repetition produces a centrist consensus upholding the status quo. The book uncovers the falsehoods of this centrist consensus using rhetorical and ideological analyses of the terms that dominate current climate-change discourse: we, alarmist, cost, growth, "India and China," innovation, and resilience. It discusses climate change, climate science, and climate denial, as well as the recent history of American climate politics, climate economics, international climate negotiations, climate policy in China, carbon capture and storage (CCS), carbon dioxide removal (CDR), climate disinformation campaigns, fossil-fuel subsidies, climate psychology, anti-racism, and climate justice. Finally it provides a new vocabulary for climate activism and offers guidance on initiating conversations about the climate crisis that can move people to take climate action"--

If I understood you, would I have this look on my face? [large print] my adventures in the art and science of relating and communicating / by Alda, Alan,1936-author.(CARDINAL)273282;
Relating : it's the cake -- Theater games with engineers -- The heart and head of communication -- The mirror exercise -- Observation games -- Making it clear and vivid -- Reading minds : Helen Riess and Matt Lerner -- Teams -- Total listening starts with where they are -- Listening, from the boardroom to the bedroom -- Training doctors to have more empathy -- My life as a lab rat -- Working alone on building empathy -- Dark empathy -- Reading the mind of the reader -- Teaching and the flame challenge -- Emotion makes it memorable -- Story and the brain -- Commonality -- Jargon and the curse of knowledge -- The improvisation of daily life."In his wry and wise voice, Alda reflects on moments of miscommunication in his own life, when an absence of understanding resulted in problems both big and small. He guides us through his discoveries, showing how communication can be improved through learning to relate to the other person: listening with our eyes, looking for clues in another's face, using the power of a compelling story, avoiding jargon, and reading another person so well that you become "in sync" with them, and know what they are thinking and feeling--especially when you're talking about the hard stuff. Drawing on improvisation training, theater, and storytelling techniques from a life of acting, and with insights from recent scientific studies, Alda describes ways we can build empathy, nurture our innate mind-reading abilities, and improve the way we relate and talk with others. Exploring empathy-boosting games and exercises, If I Understood You is a funny, thought-provoking guide that can be used by all of us, in every aspect of our lives--with our friends, lovers, and families, with our doctors, in business settings, and beyond"--Goodreads.com.
