"Beautiful. . . . The splintered, humanizing observations that constantly animate this novel . . . are exhilarating" --The New York Times Book Review"Gripping. . . . It unfolds with the whispered, urgent secrecy of the confessional. The writing is terse, taut and very graphic--like a succession of crystal-clear stills from a dramatic film." --The Daily Telegraph"Irresistible.&#160;Reading Don't Move is like opening the hospital room door to find a tiger pacing in the corridor: there's no looking away, no turning back; nothing is more important than what happens next." --Valerie Martin, author of Property

&ldquo;Gripping and beautifully written, Between Earth and Sky tugs at the heart with its dynamic heroine and unique cast of characters.&#160;Though this novel brings alive two historical American eras and settings, the story is&#160;achingly modern, universal and important.&rdquo;&mdash;Karen Harper, New York Times bestselling author of The It Girls &#160; &ldquo;A masterfully written novel about the heart-wrenching clash of two American cultures . . . a fresh and astonishing debut.&rdquo;&mdash;V.S. Alexander, author of The Magdalen Girls and The Taster &#160; &ldquo;A sweeping tale of courage, friendship, and love, Between Earth and Sky held me spellbound. This engrossing novel transports the reader to frontier America, amid the tensions between the White Man, the Natives, and those who longed to bridge the gap in understanding and compassion. Skenandore doesn&rsquo;t miss a beat&mdash;her elegant prose sings, Alma and Harry&rsquo;s story mesmerizes, and the evocative setting feels all too real. I adored this book!&rdquo;&mdash;Heather Webb, author of Last Christmas in Paris: A Novel of WWI

’Given the sharp shift of strategic focus; from the Pacific and Atlantic to the Indian Ocean, this stimulating anthology constitutes a timely endeavour by Harsh V. Pant to provide an insight into India’s enigmatic maritime rise. Nine thoughtful chapters provide a kaleidoscopic and objective view, through Indian and foreign eyes, of the rationale underpinning India’s aspirations for a capable 21st century blue-water navy.’ Admiral Arun Prakash (Retd)  ’An essential guide to an important subject, recommended for generalists and specialists alike. While China and its navy have received much attention in recent years, outside of India the transformation of the Indian navy has gone mostly unnoticed. This volume fulfils a vital role in grounding the reader in the historical, material and cultural context of the Indian navy, and Indian maritime thought by leading Indian and Western authors.’ Patrick Bratton, Hawai`i Pacific University, USA  'The Rise of the Indian Navy is a collection of essays by experts based in India, the United Kingdom and the United States which assesses the remarkable development of Indian naval capabilities in recent years... it is a valuable and well-produced contribution to a subject which is not well understood in the West, or even within India.'

Thought-provoking . . .&#160;An accessible addition to libraries that may function as a springboard for a discussion on positive communication and the importance of listening."&mdash;School LIbrary Journal"Like Ludwig and Barton&rsquo;s previous picture book, The Invisible Boy (2013), which concerns a quiet child, this book has a purpose. It deals with a recognizable problem, offers some points to discuss, and delivers its message lightly." &mdash;Booklist"Sympathetic and most of all, hopeful."&mdash;Publishers Weekly"The ending reflects real life in that Owen still has bouts of talkativeness, though now he does also listen for others' input. . . . Similarly talkative youngsters struggling with social interactions may want to schedule their own laryngitis days." &mdash;Kirkus Reviews&#160;&ldquo;This delightful story shows the beauty and benefits of tuning in and listening to others in compassionate, caring ways&mdash;something we definitely need more of in our chatter-filled world!&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Dr. Michele Borba, bestselling author of UnSelfie: Why Empathetic Kids Succeed in Our All-About-Me WorldA Junior Library Guild Selection

&#8220;D&#8217;Arcy Jenish tells Thompson&#8217;s story in a dramatic and entertaining way that keeps the pages turning. . . . This well-fashioned account should do much to introduce a remarkable Canadian to the public at large.&#8221;&#8212;The Globe and Mail&#8220;His brilliantly evocative Indian Fall . . . established Saskatchewan&#8217;s D&#8217;Arcy Jenish as a fine popular historian. Jenish&#8217;s new book is just as good. . . . Jenish&#8217;s marvellous effort has resurrected Thompson&#8217;s accomplishments as a great explorer and mapmaker.&#8221;&#8212;Winnipeg Free Press&#8220;D&#8217;Arcy Jenish makes the flat statement that David Thompson remains &#8216;one of the most remarkable figures in Canadian history&#8217; and then sets out to demonstrate this view. . . . He skilfully and quickly takes readers into this account in a stirring narrative.&#8221;&#8212;Edmonton Journal
