The Superpets (and Me!): Amazing True Stories of Incredible Animals from the Nation’s Favourite Supervet
Discover amazing stories of the Supervet’s most incredible animals, from bionic cats and dogs to hero hedgehogs and courageous chameleons!
Growing up on the family farm in Ballyfin, Ireland, Noel Fitzpatrick spent his childhood tending to the cattle and sheep with his beloved sheepdog Pirate, who comforted him after he was bullied by the kids at school. This bond with animals inspired him to become a vet – but not just any vet, a SUPERVET!
Noel has treated thousands of animals – many of whom were thought to be beyond help. Discover the incredible stories of the brave animals he has worked with, from Peanut, the world’s first cat with two front bionic limbs, to Betsy, the six-month-old cockapoo, who was given a new lease of life when her crushed paw was replaced with a skateboard wheel!
The perfect gift for young animal-lovers, packed with true tales that celebrate kindness, perseverance and the unbreakable bond between humans and animals.
Noel Fitzpatrick’s first non-fiction book for younger readers is inspired by his Sunday Times bestselling memoirs Listening to the Animals and How Animals Saved My Life, alongside brand new stories curated for children.

So, you’re learning Mandarin Chinese… but just can’t find the ideal reading material?
Good news – we’ve got you covered.
Many students of Mandarin Chinese constantly find a massive obstacle when trying to develop their reading skills – a total lack of high-quality reading material. This can not only make the learning processes tougher but also force the student to lose interest.

Our book will ensure you not only can read something that will expand your knowledge on Mandarin Chinese, but that you will understand and be able to pick it apart piece by piece in your quest for learning.
How Chinese Short Stories for Beginners Volume 2 works:
- Each of the book’s twenty chapters will use a story filled with day-to-day terms, useful Mandarin Chinese language tools and entertaining storylines to help you expand your knowledge of the Chinese culture.
- Using Chinese characters, Pinyin romanization AND an English translation in each chapter, you will develop a fluent understanding of Chinese writing!
- A summary synopsis in Chinese, Pinyin and in English of what you just read, both to review the lesson and for you to see if you understood the story.
- At the end of those summaries, you’ll be provided with a list of the most relevant vocabulary involved in the lesson, as well as slang and sayings that you may not have caught at first glance!
- Finally, you’ll be provided with a set of tricky questions in Chinese, providing you with the chance to prove that you learned something in the story. Don’t worry if you don’t know the answer to any — we will provide them immediately after, but no cheating!
Do you think you can handle it? If the answer is yes, then you’re definitely on your way to becoming a fluent Mandarin Chinese speaker, and we’ll certainly make your dreams come true!
So look no further! Pick up your copy of Chinese Short Stories for Beginners Volume 2 and start learning Chinese right now!

The Cosmic Dance: Finding patterns and pathways in a chaotic universe
A visual journey from the minute to the infinite, exploring the relationships and harmonies between all parts of the universe and inspiring personal contemplation regarding our own place within it.In The Cosmic Dance, renowned image alchemist Stephen Ellcock presents a pan-global collection of remarkable, arresting and surprising images drawn from the entire history of art to explore the ancient belief that the cosmos is reflected in all living things. Organized thematically, the visual journey begins with the microscopic, the particulate and the elemental; then explores the human body as a cosmos in miniature, the beauty of divine proportions and our search for spiritual enlightenment; before finally revelling in the colossal, the celestial and the infinite.
An eloquent introduction provides an overview of the central themes and expert commentaries introduce each section. Detailed panels provide bitesize information on key concepts and key thinkers – from the four elements to Cosmic Man and from the möbius strip to the Mandelbrot set – while thought-provoking quotations from philosophers, writers, artists and scientists interspersed throughout the artworks prompt a closer, more personal engagement with the images.
This stunning treasury of artworks provides the perfect guide to a deeper contemplation of the world around us, allowing readers, in the words of William Blake, to ‘see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour’.
