This book introduces the Shang Dynasty, an early stage of Chinese history where civilization began to take a clear and lasting form. It focuses on how people lived, believed, and governed during a time shaped by bronze (¿¿, q¿ngtóng), ritual practices, and emerging social structures.

Through these themes, it shows how early Chinese civilization grew from a mix of belief, power, and innovation. By the end, readers gain a clear understanding of how the Shang Dynasty helped shape the foundations of Chinese history and culture.

In this book, ProMosaik Children introduces 14 Māori fairy tales. The Māori are a people of immigrants who reached today's New Zealand as expert navigators on their canoes coming from Polynesia towards the end of the 13th century. The Classic epoch of Māori culture began around 1500 with the shift of the population to agriculture. The society was organized into tribes. European colonialism began with the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman in 1642, followed by the British Captain James Cook who reached New Zealand in 1769. British colonialism resulted in wars, land conflicts, and mass confiscation of Māori land. Stripped of their economic base and vulnerable to disease, the Māori population plummeted sharply from an estimated 100,000–120,000 at contact to roughly 40,000 by 1900. After the robbery of their land, the introduction of diseases, and the alienation in the cities, the colonial power went a step further, by stealing Māori families their children. Journalist Aaron Smale describes these violations against children’s rights in his article published on al-Jazeera (Smale Aaron: A Quiet Genocide: The Legacy of Stolen indigenous Children) where he interviews the victim Tyrone Marks who was taken to a so-called welfare home when he was six. Years of abuse followed. This phenomenon the journalist calls “childhood incarceration” was the culmination of colonization. Children were abducted to white institutions where they were whipped, sexually abused, and electrocuted. ProMosaik dedicates this book to these victims. Fairy tales are an important aspect of Māori culture, as it is the case of poetry.Howes (1872-1954), a New Zealand author and educator, collected these fairy tales and published them in 1913 in London. The Māori understanding of the development of the universe was expressed in genealogical form. There are fairy tales about the creation of the universe and of the human being and others about morality and cooperation in society.

Bloomsbury presents My Second Impression of You by Michelle I. Mason, read by Kimberly M Wetherell.Perfect for fans of Tweet Cute and Instant Karma, this YA romcom is a heartfelt story about a girl who thinks she knows everything about love — until she relives a day and discovers she had it all wrong.Sixteen-year-old Maggie Scott is a little dramatic. Both in the over-the-top sense and in the involved-in-every-possible-performing-arts-activity sense. Life is just more fun when you're always putting on a show! But apparently her boyfriend, Theo, disagrees, because he unexpectedly dumps her. She's so distressed she breaks her foot, has to be rescued by the most obnoxious boy in school, Carson, and can no longer star in the school play.Now everything is terrible and Maggie doesn't understand where it all went wrong. So when she gets a mysterious text from an unknown number offering her a chance to relive the day when she and Theo met, Maggie can't help clicking (even though she knows what they say about suspicious links and clicking). Suddenly, she finds herself transported from her worst day ever to her best day ever—but on second review, Maggie realizes there are some details she overlooked. Maybe she was so focused on starring in the Maggie show that she didn't pay enough attention. Maybe Maggie doesn't know the people around her as well as she thought—particularly Carson. And maybe her worst day ever isn't quite as terrible as it seems.In this funny and relatable YA romcom, Michelle I. Mason explores how there's always another way of looking at the situations we find ourselves in . . . and sometimes the people we overlook end up being the best ones of all.

The definitive behind-the-scenes history of video games' explosion into the twenty-first century and the war for industry power "A zippy read through a truly deep research job. You won't want to put this one down."-Eddie Adlum, publisher, RePlay Magazine As video games evolve, only the fittest companies survive. Making a blockbuster once cost millions of dollars; now it can cost hundreds of millions, but with a $160 billion market worldwide, the biggest players are willing to bet the bank. Steven L. Kent has been playing video games since Pong and writing about the industry since the Nintendo Entertainment System. In volume 1 of The Ultimate History of Video Games, he chronicled the industry's first thirty years. In volume 2, he narrates gaming's entrance into the twenty-first century, as Nintendo, Sega, Sony, and Microsoft battle to capture the global market. The home console boom of the '90s turned hobby companies like Nintendo and Sega into Hollywood-studio-sized business titans. But by the end of the decade, they would face new, more powerful competitors. In boardrooms on both sides of the Pacific, engineers and executives began, with enormous budgets and total secrecy, to plan the next evolution of home consoles. The PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, and Sega Dreamcast all made radically different bets on what gamers would want. And then, to the shock of the world, Bill Gates announced the development of the one console to beat them all-even if Microsoft had to burn a few billion dollars to do it. In this book, you will learn about the cutthroat environment at Microsoft as rival teams created console systems the day the head of Sega of America told the creator of Sonic the Hedgehog to "f**k off" how "lateral thinking with withered technology" put Nintendo back on top and much more! Gripping and comprehensive, The Ultimate History of Video Games: Volume 2 explores the origins of modern consoles and of the franchises-from Grand Theft Auto and Halo to Call of Duty and Guitar Hero-that would define gaming in the new millennium.

Once upon a time...There were two friends, and together they travelled the cosmos. They thwarted tyrants and defeated monsters, they righted wrongs wherever they went. They explored the distant future and the distant past, new worlds and galaxies, places beyond imagining.But every good story has to come to an end...With no times or places left to explore, all the two friends have now are each other. But maybe that's one voyage too many. Maybe they'll discover things they'd rather have left undisturbed... hidden away in the suffocating, unfeeling, deafening brightness.Once upon a time. Far, far away.

Join the powerful and rather cute Kirby as he gains new abilities in a colorful 3D platforming adventure filled with wonder, wilderness, and Waddle Dees. Kirby has a knack for taking deep breaths, and he gets his due when he arrives in an unfamiliar land and discovers that Waddle Dees are being kidnapped en masse by the Beast Pack. To save his friends, Kirby embarks on a journey with his curious sidekick, Elfilin, whom he meets in the new world. Players can utilize a variety of Kirby's abilities to battle enemies and navigate vibrant 3D worlds. A place where nature and a past civilization have merged, areas filled with platforming challenges await. As you set out to free the Waddle Dees held captive at the goal at the end of each level, it can be helpful to explore every nook and cranny to save as many as possible along the way. The Beast Pack is a bit of a challenge, so Kirby's iconic copy abilities have been given a few additions: Drill and Ranger copy abilities. Drill allows you to dive into the ground and attack enemies from below. And enemies will soon see stars when Kirby uses his Ranger copy ability, which allows him to hit an enemy from afar. Kirby can also bring along a companion on his journey in the form of Bandana Waddle Dee. Players can then unleash a variety of attacks using his spear and can easily jump into two-player co-op play on the same console by sharing a Joy-Con. Kirby and the Forgotten Land also introduces Waddle Dee Town, the central hub of the adventure. The town will develop more and more based on the number of Waddle Dees rescued. Various shops will open, and players will be able to enjoy some of the townspeople's favorite games. Kirby can even help out at the Waddle Dee Café. The wise Waddle Dee can also be found in Waddle Dee Town and will give you helpful tips. By connecting online with a Nintendo Account, it is possible to obtain information based on global player data, such as the total number of Waddle Dees rescued around the world and the most popular copy ability at the current time.
