Earth's wild music : celebrating and defending the songs of the natural world / by Moore, Kathleen Dean,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."In her newest collection, Moore selects essays that celebrate the music of the natural world as a reminder of what can be taken from us-the yowl of wolves, tick of barnacles, laughter of children, shriek of falling mountains. Alongside these selections are brand new essays born from the sorrow and iniquity of this new age of extinction, all bearing witness to the glories of this world and the sins against it. Each group of essays moves, as Moore herself has been moved, from celebration to lamentation to bewilderment to the determination to act. In Earth's Wild Music, Moore reminds us that whatever is left of the planet after its pillaging is the world in which those who remain must live. Whatever genetic song-lines, whatever fragments of whale-squeal and shattered harmonies are left, that's what evolution will have to work with. Music is the shivering urgency and exuberance of life on-going. In a time of terrible silencing, Moore asks, who will forgive us if we do not save the songs?"--

Emiko / by Uegaki, Chieri,author.;
"A fresh and charming YA romance, Emiko is a modern-day, Japanese-Canadian twist on Emma that will have readers giggling, swooning and kicking their feet as our proud yet sweet Austenian heroine discovers there's more to love than meets the eye. Self-declared matchmaking genius Emiko Kimori has already found success by helping her aunt find true love, so when the new girl in town becomes her new BFF, its only natural for Emiko to help set her up for social success with a suitable love match. Emiko lives with her Ojiichan in a small town on BC's Sunshine Coast surrounded by friends and neighbors, including her childhood friend Kenzo Sanada, who wants her to spend less time meddling in every else's love lives. But Emiko can so clearly see who belongs together, even when her targets don't know it themselves. She simply has to meddle -- for the sake of true love! As for her own romantic life though ... who has time for that? Emiko is far too busy with her matchmaking schemes, volunteering, her bustling social life and making plans for after graduation. Plans she will absolutely decide on soon. Definitely. Maybe? But when Emiko ends up falling for the very last person she expects, she finds herself caught in the tangled web of her own love matches! For the first time, instead of arranging from afar, Emiko has to figure out what it means to be in love herself, and that friendship and romance are more complicated than she ever imagined."--
