This excellent book helps adults introduce children to some of the environmental issues that face us today in an age-appropriate way. Playful illustrations of a variety of sea creatures teach children ways humans can help save our ocean friends.
Word spreads across the ocean about a meeting to hatch a plan of defense against fishing trawlers (aka “the monsters”). Brightly colored crabs and lobsters, sea snails, polka-dotted fish, and whales and dolphins rally together and appeal—with a hug and a kiss—to humans to make the right choices when they shop.
The tale concludes with a sweet Sea Shepherd shanty about the brave crews who sailed the seas to protect whales, dolphins, and fish in need. We’re all invited to join these kind individuals and help keep our ocean clean and full of fish.

The 70 scrumptious recipes will help readers prepare spectacular seasonings as well as mainstays for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, so they can stay healthy and satisfied while pampering their delicate digestive systems.

Chef AJ’s love affair with desserts began with the gift of an Easy Bake Oven when she was seven years old. While her passion for creating them has not wavered, her choice of sweeteners changed from sugar to the natural sweetness found in whole foods.
Her outrageously delicious plant-based desserts are gluten-free and sugar-free and contain no added salt or oil. Each of the 150+ recipes have indicators that rate each dessert for sweetness (Subtly Sweet, Nice & Sweet, Superbly Sweet) and fat content (Low-fat, Semi-decadent, Rich & Decadent), allowing you to select just the right treat for the occasion and company.
The full gauntlet of recipes for bars, brownies, cakes, cheesecakes, cobblers, cookies, crisps, cupcakes, ice creams, mousses, muffins, pies, and tarts—many accompanied by mouthwatering photos—can now be enjoyed as “healthy—not guilty—pleasures.”

“I support this book because it demonstrates it is possible to enjoy delicious desserts and still be super healthy. I even use healthful desserts to help people lose weight.

A vertical garden can run the gamut from a simple arrangement of flowers in a large container on a deck to an elaborate display of strawberries and geraniums amid climbing peas and vines of small squash growing up a backyard fence. Any upright structure that can support vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers, whether these plants are in containers or in the ground, can be used in vertical gardening.
Although vertical gardening is of particular interest to apartment dwellers and to city residents with limited yard space, it's also used by suburban and rural gardeners to grow vining plants up supports, so valuable space can be freed up for root crops. Gardening expert Jason Johns offers examples of many types of vertical gardens and gives suggestions for the most appropriate plants to grow vertically. He also gives tips for how to plan a vertical garden to take advantage of sunlight, allow for easy watering and care, and provide protection from wind and insect damage.
Included are many photographs illustrating innovative and creative vertical gardening containers and arrangements.

"Synopsis: A vertical garden can run the gamut from a simple arrangement of flowers in a large container on a deck to an elaborate display of strawberries and geraniums amid climbing peas and vines of small squash growing up a backyard fence. Any upright structure that can support vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers, whether these plants are in containers or in the ground, can be used. Of particular interest to urban dwellers and to city residents with limited yard space or sunlight, growing plants vertically can also be used by suburban and rural gardeners so valuable ground space can be freed up for root crops.
"Gardening expert Jason Johns offers examples of many types of vertical gardens and offers suggestions on which plants to select that thrive when grown vertically. He also gives tips for how to plan a vertical garden to take advantage of sunlight, allow for easy watering and care, and provide protection from wind and insect damage. Included are numerous photographs illustrating innovative and creative vertical gardening structures and arrangements that provide the support plants need to flourish. You'll be able to maximize your yield in minimal space.
"Critique: Illustrated with black-and-white photography throughout, Vertical Gardening is a guide to growing one's own, organic produce and herbs in the smallest of spaces. Chapters discuss how to raise plants that do well in vertical gardens; maintain optimal soil conditions; protect one's garden from wind and insect damage; and much more. An index rounds out this "must-have" for aspiring and hobbyist gardeners who have a limited area to work with. It should be noted for personal reading lists that Vertical Gardening is also available in a Kindle edition."

Gary Collins
Set aside any worries that living off the grid means a life without comfort and convenience or that it will be too challenging for you and your family to handle. Author Gary Collins literally wrote the book on how to transition to a life off the grid. After almost a decade of walking the walk, he's sharing his successes and failures alike so you can live the simple life without missing out on creature comforts.
You'll find a comprehensive rundown of what this unique lifestyle looks like in practice, with complex topics distilled into easy-to-apply lessons:
discover strategies for running a business while remaining mostly unplugged.
explore ways to remain socially and professionally connected.
find out how to make the most of your newfound freedom and decreased cost of living.
learn how to avoid mistakes, expensive errors, and bonehead blunders.
Filled with practical instruction, time-saving tips, and hard-earned wisdom from a man who's been there, done that, this guide is invaluable to anyone considering an off-the-grid lifestyle.
"Gary Collins wrote Living Off The Grid to bring people down to earth to the realities of living with less, making sacrifices, and choosing your priorities wisely. Very sensibly, he suggests buying a small RV, or at the very least renting one to live in while your off-grid home is built. Water is a top priority. Gary provides a kilowatt formula for figuring out how much electricity you will be using and then adding, hopefully, two forms of electrical power to reach your kilowatt goal. Dishwasher? Hot water? TV? Computer? Refrigerator? Stove? You can provide yourself with as many amenities as you like, but you’ll have to power them. Can you afford to add some form of wind power? Not many people will live near enough to a stream to adapt some hydroelectricity.
"Rugged individualists have an appeal all their own. Gary Collins is devoted to his off-grid way of life. He runs a website about it, writes books about it, and answers people’s questions about it. Living Off The Grid is a follow-up to his first book, Going Off The Grid. The first book is about making the move, and this second book is a how-to manual for good planning and what to expect. A place to build should be thoughtfully chosen. How far away from people do you want to go? Or how close? Either way, the author suggests that you tap into the off-grid community, as they will understand your lifestyle and be a generous and helpful resource. I have to admit that I was expecting this book to be more about living like a subsistence farmer, hardscrabble farming the land, and following a team of oxen as they pull your manual plow. I was way off. Living Off The Grid is extremely entertaining, informative, and passionate. I enjoyed it very much." - Reviewed By Java Davis for Readers’ Favorite
