Recess is wholly transformed when Omeed holds up an orange and asks one question: "What if this were the world?"Ms. Lee's class had come perilously close to running out of games, but the hunt for the best world gains steam right away. The orange is tasty, but too small to share. A dodgeball world can be punted to outer space by a mean older kid. A maple tree isn't portable enough. Imaginations have never been so alive. But still no perfect world turns up, and the kids' search is leaving a trail of litter and destruction behind them. Maybe there really is only one world that ticks all the boxes, only one world where everyone fits and can get what they need. . . and maybe it's time to treat it a little better.With a cast of big personalities and a hearty helping of witty banter, If This Were the World reads like the very best recess, with a well-earned nod to our planet and the work of protecting it.

A father and son play hide and seek, but the game gets a bit too real when a thunderstorm rolls in.Play is how children make sense of the world, and hide and seek is no exception. Readers of any generation will immediately recognize the negotiations that go on in this family's games: Dad should seek, but shouldn't find his son Ro too fast. Siblings always spill the beans if they see you hide. And no one is as good a finder as Mom. But sometimes you find a hiding place that is really, really hidden. And if a loud storm kicks up outside, seeming to hiss your name, you might wonder if Dad is ever going to find you. Is he even still looking? Sixteen Games of Hide and Seek is an effortlessly funny and gloriously relatable family yarn with an ending like a reassuring hug, as Dad affirms that Ro is never forgotten and always safe. Steve Teare's part-comic, part-painterly illustrations amplify all the humor and warmth of Stephen Barr's story. Youngsters still trying to figure out how much independence they're quite ready for, and the grown-ups supporting that journey, will return to this book often.

As the 1970s began, Shirley Crabtree (Big Daddy) was a semi-retired wrestler, aged 40; the younger Martin Ruane (Giant Haystacks), a down-on-his-luck father of three. Both were living in poverty, scratching out a living in the murky underworld of northern England as nightclub doormen. A decade later, they were two of the most famous faces in Britain, with record-breaking millions tuning in to watch them clash at Wembley. But the glory wouldn’t last forever. Big Daddy vs Giant Haystacks tells a rags-to-riches tale of unlikely fame, family loyalty, tragic death, and a uniquely British pop culture phenomenon. This gripping roller-coaster story features exclusive contributions from the likes of Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart, former British heavyweight champion Tony St. Clair and ‘Superstar’ Mal Sanders.

"The Back of Our Heads" is a fascinating and perplexing book that dives into the complexities of human psychology, memory, and the mind's hidden recesses. Some stories are gruesome and bizarre, while others softly creep up on you and pull you in. The plot has so many twists and turns that can engage a reader. Readers are compelled to continue reading to find out what happens next since the title character is so indulgent The author wonderfully establishes a tapestry of related events and characters in this thought-provoking narrative, allowing readers to explore the depths of consciousness and the mysteries that lay within. The headline of the book, "The Back of Our Heads," is a metaphor for the untapped frontiers of our inner worlds-those thoughts, emotions, and experiences which are frequently hidden from our conscious consciousness. Readers are challenged to confront the quandary of human perception and the elusive nature of reality as they embark on this literary trip. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Back of Our Heads is both modern and readable.
