Grasshopper Jungle
Grasshopper Jungle is smart, cool and laconic contemporary young adult fiction. I read somewhere that human beings are genetically predisposed to record history. We believe it will prevent us from doing stupid things in the future. This is my history. There are things in here: Babies with two heads, insects as big as electric guitars, God, the devil, limbless warriors, rocket ships, sex, diving bells, theft, wars, monsters, internal combustion engines, love, cigarettes, joy, bomb shelters, pizza, and cruelty. Just like it’s always been.

The Grasshopper's Run
Just as the invasion begins, an ambitious and vicious Japanese officer orders the massacre of a village of the Ao Naga tribe. Among those killed is Uti, grandson of the eldest Ao chief. Gojen is his best friend, and on hearing the news of Uti's death he is unable to stay in school in Calcutta and so returns to the ancestral home, where he embarks on a gruelling journey of revenge. As the war unfolds and Gojen finds himself ever more embroiled in the battles and struggles for survival, it soon becomes clear that he is fighting for more than his homeland and the memory of his dead friend.

Field Guide to the Grasshoppers of Great Britain and Ireland
The go-to guide for identifying grasshoppers and related species that occur in the British isles. Grasshoppers and their allies draw attention to themselves not only by their active movements but also by their bright colours and song. This brand new beautifully illustrated field guide covers the 70 or so species of grasshoppers, cockroaches, stick insects, earwigs and praying mantids that may be encountered in the British countryside. A comprehensive introduction covers life history and field techniques, and is followed by detailed species accounts that include important identification details, along with information on food, habitat, conservation status and range, supplemented with distribution maps, sonograms and life history charts. Together with stunning photographs and Richard Lewington's exceptional artwork, this book is set to become the definitive guide to the orthoptera of the British Isles.
