Disaster: Recovery is a down-to-earth book that explains how you and your family can cope during and particularly after disasters such as floods, bushfires and typhoons that can and do happen (not just may happen) around the world at any time. It is one thing to survive the initial impact of a disaster. It's quite another to survive the subsequent fallout. Water and electricity may fail, phones may stop working, roads may be impassable, food and fuel stores often run out of supplies. Medical help may be unobtainable as emergency services must scale priorities. This globally applicable book explains the whys and hows of surviving those vital first few weeks following a major disaster, and includes advice on the basics of being prepared. This is a book virtually every Australian home should have on the shelf.

Australia today is facing a health crisis such as we have never seen before. Rates of cancer, obesity, diabetes, asthma, ADHD and behavioural disorders in our children are all alarmingly high. What is happening and what can we do to safeguard our own health and the health of our children? Our diets must be part of the problem and fixing our diets must be a large part of the solution. The use of food additives in our everyday foods has increased so rapidly over the past 50 years that it is getting difficult to find foods which are additive free. Although most food additives are safe, there are many which are known to be harmful. Additive Alert will tell you quickly and easily which ones you need to avoid and why.

Although Sydney is very well provided with parks, bushland, beaches and open spaces, a great deal of this - including all National Parks and virtually all beaches - is off-limits to our four-legged friends, even when leashed. Gathering information on where and when dogs can be taken and walked has been notoriously (amongst dog owners) time-consuming, and so most Sydneysiders and Sydney visitors restrict their dog walking and playing to a very few favourite local spots. Local author and dog lover Catherine Proctor gathers all that information into a single, compact and very popular book - now in its 4th edition. Now dog-owners can choose from a wide variety of dog-friendly areas right across Sydney, and ensure that their dog can be a part of even more family outings!

Zed is a zombie stripped of all basic zombie urges. The virus that has swept the world has had little effect on our poor hero. He is mocked at Zombie School, ignored by zombie society and feared by the living. You see, Zed is a vegetarian zombie; the only one of his kind. However he is also cursed with cleverness. He knows that the zombie diet of humans can only last so long...What happens to the zombie species when the last human is caught and consumed? Zed's quest becomes clear, but not so simple. He must do all he can to change the minds, habits and diets of his fellow zombies if they are to thrive on Earth. Zed the Vegetarian Zombie is an exciting story of being an individual, doing the best with what you're given and believing you can change the world. It also covers topics of vegetarianism, resource, scarcity, our connection with the environment and standing up for what you believe in. It is written and illustrated by a primary school teacher with an addiction to picture storybooks and a New York Times bestselling author.
