 Belonging by Jeannie Baker
(A wordless picture book and companion book to 'Window')
An alienating city street gradually becomes a place to call home. Little by little, baby Tracy grows. She and her neighbours begin to rescue their street. Together, children and adults plant grass and trees and bushes in the empty spaces. They paint murals over old graffiti. They stop the cars. Everything begins to blossom.
'Belonging' explores the re-greening of the city: the role of community, the empowerment of people and the significance of children, family and neighbourhood in changing their urban environment . The streets gradually become places for safe children's play, and community activity and places
for nature and wonder. ' 2005 The Australian Wilderness Society Award

 The Fascinating Histry of your Lunch
Fascinating History of your Lunch by
Jackie French. Who invented cheese? Or bread or margarine? Where did lettuce and tomato plants originally come from? The plants we eat nowadays come from all over the world and the way we cook and eat them also come from many different cultures. Apples travelled with the Romans, oranges with the Muslim armies and chocolate started off as ancient Aztec coins. The history of food is the history of the world – the Spanish conquistadors conquered the South American Aztec empire and brought home the bitter beans that would eventually become chocolate. They also brought potatoes and chillies with them. Wars, famines and revolutions bring people from one country to another and they bring their favourite food, too. The most important things to learn from history are how people once lived and thought and how that has led to the world we know today. And one of the most interesting ways of understanding history is to look at what we eat. Ages 10+
