Great Lakes untamed. [videorecording] / by McIntyre Media,distributor.;
In winter, Great Lakes animals must deal with extreme temperatures. Divers explore the lakebed where a colossal ice sheet once ground into North America's bedrock, leaving five giant lakes when it melted. Each year the ice returns, challenging life. A powerful jet stream dip creates huge ice storms, the world's largest freshwater waves, and lake effect snow. Life has adapted. Otters frolic beneath Lake Huron's ice surface; giant freshwater cod sing and mate in the frigid waters; ravens outwit bald eagles and wolves, feeding on a deer; snow provides insulation for new-born black bears; the huge paws of a Canadian lynx help it move in deep snow; and the ultra-violet fur of flying squirrels deters predators. But some creatures are suffering due to the shorter, warmer winters. A rare wolverine is threatened by the warming climate and Great Lakes moose are declining in numbers. Ice and snow created North America's Great Lakes and its species have evolved to survive the harsh elements. In this warming world, the future of life in the Great Lakes will be shaped by one species - us.E.DVD.

All that's bright and gone : a novel / by Nellums, Eliza,author.;
"There's plenty about the grown-up world that six-year-old Aoife doesn't understand. Like what happened to her big brother Theo and why her mama is in the hospital instead of home where she belongs. Uncle Donny says she just needs to be patient, but Aoife's sure her mama won't be able to come home until Aoife learns what really happened to her brother. The trouble is, no one wants to talk about Theo because he was murdered. But by whom? With her imaginary friend Teddy by her side and the detecting skills of her nosy next-door neighbor, Aoife sets out to uncover the truth about her family. But as her search takes her from the banks of Theo's secret hideout by the river to the rooftops overlooking Detroit, Aoife will learn that some secrets can't stay hidden forever and sometimes the pain we bury is the biggest secret of them all. Driven by Aoife's childlike sincerity and colored by her vivid imagination, All That's Bright and Gone illuminates the unshakeable bond between families-- and the lengths we'll go to bring our loved ones home."-- Dust jacket flap.
