Ernest Goh’s close encounters with these creatures of the slimy-scaly kind began in the longkangs around the Siglap kampong where he spent much of his early childhood. Armed with nothing but empty milk tins and his bare hands, he scooped up whatever went past — tadpoles, guppies and the occasional frog.Prized possessions they were then. Today, fish continue to fascinate millions of hobbyists worldwide, turning Singapore into the world’s ornamental fish capital. (The island accounts for 24 per cent of world export and over 40 per cent of the Asian market.)In this book, 38 varieties of fish and aquarium creatures that have charmed enthusiasts all over the globe — including the Red Bubble Eye, Shovelnose Catfish and Albino Clawed Frog — are shown in colourful, close-up glory. Surprising, whimsical and always fascinating, The Fish Book is master photographer Ernest Goh’s first book. It is also his homage to the humble longkang fish for ensuring his childhood world went beyond late-afternoon cartoons and school textbooks.

Here, magnificently illustrated, are the thrilling adventures of Greek mythology that explain the signs of the zodiac and the constellations that decorate the nighttime sky. Do you know what sign you were born under, and do you know the story behind the sign? In ancient Greece, the signs of the zodiac were identified with twelve groups of stars, which we can still see in the night sky today at different times during the year. They were also associated with one of four elements-Earth, Air, Fire and Water-and behind each of them lies a story. Starting with Aries (the ram) in spring and following the year round through summer, fall, and winter to Pisces (the fishes), the stories of the zodiac's twelve signs explain how each particular group of stars found its way into the heavens. Like many of the myths of ancient Greece, they are full of drama and excitement, with fearsome monsters, brave heroes, and gods and goddesses who use their power to both help human beings and obstruct them. On these pages, you will set sail with Jason and the Argonauts to find the Golden Fleece; watch Herakles struggle with the Nemean Lion; weep with the nature goddess Demeter when her daughter Persephone is kidnapped by Hades, King of the Underworld; and see how the messenger god Hermes joins sides with Cadmus to outwit the terrible monster Typhon. You can also learn about the myths associated with the planets, read about the qualities that are associated with each of the signs, and decide whether or not you recognize yourself in the descriptions. The Abbeville Anthology series for children features adventurous and enlightening stories rooted in the traditions of many world cultures. Each exploresa different theme, and opens up new worlds of wonder. Other books in this captivating series include Mother and Daughter Tales and Stories from the Sea. Meant to be read aloud to youngsters or read independently by older children, these collections will find a permanent place on your family's bookshelf!

The essence of the earth's beauty lies in chaos, in the disorder of grasses strewn in a meadow, the blotching of green lichen on a tree trunk. Eliot Porter's photographs of the natural world, spanning thirty-five years and five continents -- from an Antarctic ice floe to an American desert to an Icelandic lava field -- reveal in mesmerizing ways what scientists are beginning to see for themselves: the patterns, relations, and interactions present in nature's disorder and wildness. This is the perfect marriage of image and text -- brilliant full-color photographs by the preeminent nature photographer of his generation together with an illuminating essay by the widely praised author of Chaos.

Meet Bella, the lioness with a broken heart, and Simba, the captive king of the jungle. And learn how all animals that are born free should live free. Simba was born in a French zoo and was later bought by an animal trainer. For many years he lived in cramped captivity. When Bella was young, she was used as a photographer's prop and then later lived in a run-down zoo in Romania. Because she had been taken from her mother at such a young age and fed a poor diet, she sadly developed a weak spine and back legs. Luckily Born Free could come to the rescue. Now Simba and Bella both live in Malawi where they have become great companions. Join Born Free behind the scenes of one of their real life rescues.
