The Pirates Are Coming!
A hilarious retelling of The Boy Who Cried Wolf, with not one but TWO twists! Tom has a VERY important job; every day he climbs to the top of the hill and watches for pirate ships. But when he rings his bell and shouts "Pirates!" a few too many times - and there's NO pirate ship - the villagers begin to get tired of hiding. So what will happen when the pirates really do show up? Repeated phrases make it fun for young adventurers to join in with the storytelling, and witty, bold artwork by Matt Hunt adds to the excitement, with hilarious things to spot on every rereading. John Condon has been shortlisted for various awards including the LoveReading4Kids Children's Book Awards. Matt Hunt has been nominated for the Kate Greenaway Medal, and his book Stephen Hawking: Little People, Big Dreams was an Amazon bestseller.

While Japan has been on center stage of the world economy for decades, interactions between the Japanese and Westerners continue to be on the rise. Daily communication in both business and social settings is commonplace, and connections through the Internet and mobile media make what felt distant only a few years ago seem familiar. Our cultures and social norms remain vastly different, however, and professionals working in Japan are likely to confront new challenges every day. For example, what are the three biggest challenges for Westerners who go to work in Japan? How can you tell when “yes” might mean “no”? When you are the guest in a taxi, who should sit where? In the fully updat...

The Silent Epidemic
Every year over 50,000 people will die from brain injury. Annually, one million more brain injury survivors will suffer long-term disability. Yet those closest to neurological research aimed at "understanding the brain" say that to date researchers have only scratched the surface.
