The romantic minimalist : simple homes with soul / by Bartlett, Atlanta,author.; Coote, Dave,author.;
In this interiors book, design duo Atlanta Bartlett and Dave Coote explore a new type of minimalism. The emphasis is on appreciating the imperfect, encouraging self-expression and never compromising on comfort. This new minimalism has romance and nostalgia at its heart. It celebrates the plain and simple things in life; loves old, time-worn treasures; shuns materialism in favour of sustainability and creates a home to soothe the soul. The book includes photographed case studies of homes, alongside chapters on topics ranging from colour usage and storage, to sustainability and sourcing found objects from nature. This is the perfect manual for curating elegant and soothing living spaces.

Are we there yet? : how humans find their way / by Birmingham, Maria.; Shannon, Drew,1988-;
Includes bibliographical references and index."From finding food, water and shelter to traveling for commerce, trade and eventually exploring the world, humans have always had to find their way from one place to another. Are We There Yet? examines the evolution of how we navigate the world. Our earliest ancestors relied on built-in navigation systems in our brains and followed clues like star patterns and animal behavior. Then came the invention of maps, faster transportation and eventually technology, like satellites and GPS. And from the depths of the ocean to faraway planets, there's still plenty of exploring to do. Where will we go next?"--

Gordie's skate / by Waiser, Bill,1953-; Franson, Leanne.;
"Set in Saskatchewan during the Great Depression, this is the story of hockey legend Gordie Howe and his first experience with skating. Times were hard for five-year-old Gordie and his family in the 1930s. One day, a neighbour, desperate for some money, sold Mrs. Howe a bag of meager possessions. Inside was something wonderful: an old pair of men's hockey skates. Even though they were several sizes too large, Gordie and his sister pounced on them. At first, she and Gordie tried skating on just one foot... then holding hands to keep their balance. Eventually, his sister abandoned her skate, and Gordie grabbed it. He never looked back!"--
