****As a child in an upper-middle-class family, Potter sketched flowers, dead animals 
and live lizards, insects and rodents that she brought home. "Rabbits were caught, 
tamed, sketched, painted" by young Beatrix and her brother, Bertram. In 1893, while 
traveling with her pet rabbit, Peter Piper, and seeking unusual fungi with self-taught 
mycologist Charles McIntosh, Potter jotted an illustrated note "about a disobedient 
young rabbit called 'Peter' " to an ailing child friend and sketched Peter's nemesis, 
a McIntosh–look-alike farmer called Mr. McGregor, creating "two fictional characters 
that one day would be world-famous."

****In May 1957 an advertisement in the Personal Column of The Times caught Elephant Bill's eye. 
Butlin's Ltd offered £1,000 in cash for the immediate safe transport of the largest elephant in captivity 
from Butlin's Ayr, Scotland, to Butlin's, Filey, Yorkshire.

Intrigued, he volunteered his services, as did 3,500 other people; and not long after, he found himself 
engaged as elephant consultant, with very ill-defined duties, to help Mr Willie Wilson of Glasgow 
transport the elephant.

He begins his new book - and alas his last one, for Elephant Bill died in August 1958 - with a fascinating 
account of this journey, which was made the more hazardous by the fact that Big Charlie, the tusker, was 
on 'musth' - a condition which others underrated - and that the demands of publicity ran counter to those 
of aerial management.

****Blaze is the story of Clayton Blaisdell, Jr. -- of the crimes committed against him 
and the crimes he commits, including his last, the kidnapping of a baby heir worth 
millions. Blaze has been a slow thinker since childhood, when his father threw him 
down the stairs -- and then threw him down again. After escaping an abusive institution 
for boys when he was a teenager, Blaze hooks up with George, a seasoned criminal 
who thinks he has all the answers. But then George is killed, and Blaze, though 
haunted by his partner, is on his own.

****The story is divided into three epochs, "Spring," "Summer"and "Autumn" three great 
passions in a man's life belonging respectively to his youth, his maturity and his middle age. 
Of the three women who successively inspire these three passions, the first might almost 
have been his mother, the second was of suitable age to be his wife, and the third could easily 
been his daughter. Such is the substance of "The Dark Flower," a curiously interesting and 
probing study of man's passions and woman's weakness.

****Shipman makes a good case that Mata Hari was a naïve, innocent scapegoat for a 
demoralized French military that had endured heavy losses and mutinous troops, and 
that she was also the victim of a hypocritical, rigidly moralistic patriarchy offended by her 
shameless sexuality. Shipman offers an engrossing biography of an unusual woman for 
whom, she says, the truth was whatever she wanted it to be

just hang around long enough to become an essential reference book as our two young boys grow up."

****Fascinating and extraordinary, thrilling and poignant, My Judy Garland Life will 
speak to anyone who has ever nursed an obsession or held a candle to a star. 
Judy Garland has been an important figure in Susie Boyt's life since she was 
three years old, comforting, inspiring and at times disturbing her. In this unique book, 
Boyt travels deep into the underworld of hero worship, reviewing through the prism of 
Judy our understanding of rescue, consolation, love, grief and fame. What does it mean 
to adore someone you don't know? What is the proper husbandry of a twenty-first 
century obsession?

****Joanna Lumley was born in India and grew up in England and the Far East. She started 
out modeling for Jean Muir and soon went on to become one of Britain's best-loved actresses. 
In 1995, Joanna was awarded with an OBE shortly after making the documentary film Girl Friday.
Patsy Stone in Absolutely Fabulous; Purdey in The New Avengers; Bond Girl in On Her Majesty's 
Secret Service; Sapphire in Sapphire and Steel; a castaway in Girl Friday; actress; model; writer; 
campaigner; inventor; TV presenter and journalist: Joanna Lumley has played many roles in her 
lifetime, but rarely had the opportunity to reveal her true self. Intimate, funny, intriguing and moving, 
No Room for Secrets is a more surprising and revealing autobiography than any sensational 'kiss 
and tell' memoir you will ever read. Inside you will find the real Joanna Lumley.

****Clare and her brother are used to strange animals as their father is a zoo vet. 
When he gets the chance to join an expedition in an unexplored part of the Mexican 
Jungle they are very excited even before theyarrive, but nothing could prepare them 
for this new world, and the strange creatures in it.
“The shape had stopped behind the curtain of water. A vague, shadowy shape—part human, part lizard. 
A huge arm reached forward, and a single claw penetrated the waterfall and pointed, glistening, 
at the children.” Deep in a remote jungle in Mexico, something unearthly is stirring, disturbed by a party of 
zoologists. Ben and Claire Swift, who are there with their father, are the only ones who realize the incredible 
danger that threatens them all. An edge–of–the–seat thriller, lightened by the realistic, often very funny 
exchanges of its young hero and heroine.

****Set against the backdrop of the 1848 Revolution, this is the story of 
young lawyer Frederic Moreau's infatuation with the demurely exotic 
Madame Arnoux. This ironic depiction of uneventful lives in a troubled 
period of European history is considered one of the greatest novels 
of the 19th century.

****'Rita fell down the stairs at twenty-two minutes past midnight.' Robin Cooper, 
author of the TIMEWASTER LETTERS and RETURN OF THE TIMEWASTER 
LETTERS, turns his hand to diary writing in this hilarious new novel. All the 
absurdity, bad luck and boundless optimism of his previous books are here, 
as we discover the man behind the letters. The year starts badly for Robin, 
losing his job for sending so many letters in work time, and for his wife Rita, 
who sprains her ankle (yet again). But Robin has a cunning plan - his marrying 
of the crossword and sudoku into his devilish 'crossoku', which might just make their fortune ...
