Richard Panchyk
A broad, structured introduction to New York City’s history, linking people, places, politics, geography, conflict and change. It suits a reader who enjoys learning through chronological chapters and visual material, with optional hands-on activities alongside the historical account.
Edward Humes
A fact-rich investigation of rubbish as a cultural, economic and environmental problem, combining statistics and history with vivid people and practical examples of communities reducing waste.
Jana Curll

Laurie Lee
A vividly remembered village childhood, told through family routines, school, work, local characters and changing rural life. Its interest lies in crafted atmosphere and perspective rather than a complete factual account of Lee’s life.
Miranda Rathjen
A concise historical introduction to the Esselen, combining evidence about their life before European arrival with an account of disease, cultural disruption and changing community identity.
Isabella Hatkoff, Craig Hatkoff, Paula Kahumbu, Isabella and Craig Hatkoff
A true account of Owen, a baby hippo rescued after the 2004 tsunami, and Mzee, an elderly tortoise who becomes his companion. Their shared routines offer a vivid animal-centred story about connection across difference.
Jerome Pohlen
A chronological introduction to LGBT civil-rights history, told through people’s experiences, major struggles and contributions. Its creative activities make the subject participatory, while the historical scope connects earlier activism with more recent events.
