The Unknown Zone
A powerful, gripping and passionate award winning young adult novel of land rights, Maori spirituality, coming-of-age and love. The Unknown Zone begins with the story of fifteen-year-old Hemi Ratana who, traumatised by a humiliating incident, climbs a giant kauri on the Coromandel Peninsula in a do-or-die test of courage. High in the head branches of the kauri, Hemi finds a human skeleton. Around its neck is a key on a chain. What does the key unlock? Nearly 160 years earlier, on the West Coast of the South Island, a group of sealers from Australia is taken captive by Ngai Tahu marauders. In a desperate bid for survival one of these captives joins up with another Maori group and they all journey to the eastern Coromandel. These two stories intertwine in a exciting plot-driven adventure story that won the Best First Book Award in the 2006 New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards.

Whatever Happened to Inclusion?
Law, policy, and practice in the United States has long held that students with disabilities - including those with intellectual disabilities - have the right to a free and appropriate public education, in a non-restrictive environment.

The book then describes the changes that must be made in teacher preparation programs, policy, funding, and local schools to make the inclusion of students with intellectual disabilities a reality.
