Book Description
For the youngest fans of Louisiana State University sports, Mike the Tiger is the main attraction. Boys and girls visiting campus beg to stop by Mike’s brand-new home situated near Tiger Stadium, Alex Box Stadium, and the Pete Maravich Assembly Center, hoping to hear the big cat roar and have their photo taken with him. Mike’s veterinarian, David G. Baker, and reading specialist Margaret Taylor Stewart have combined their expertise in this fun, informative guidebook for the most devoted followers of the beloved Bengal mascot. With its question-and-answer format, this delightful book tells about Mike from whiskers to tail. Baker and Stewart offer lively responses to questions such as: Why does LSU have both a live tiger and a costumed mascot? What weighs as much as Mike the Tiger? Does Mike go to the dentist? What does Mike eat? They explore Mike’s daily routine, playtime, health care, travel arrangements, and likes and dislikes. Readers can delve into the history of LSU’s tiger tradition, meeting “up close” each of the five Mikes who have reigned since 1936. In “More about Tigers,” they can learn about Mike’s place in the larger cat family, the various subspecies of tigers, their habitats around the world, and the tiger’s distinct physical traits. Ten hands-on activities—including making a tiger face mask and cooking a delicious fudge-and-pecan treat shaped like Mike’s paw print—will engage kids’ creativity and skills. A special “Notes to Parents and Teachers” section offers suggestions for integrating the book into classroom studies. Lavishly illustrated with more than one hundred photographs capturing the many moods and adventures of Mike, Tales of Mike the Tiger will satisfy even the most inquisitive child on the subject of this favorite feline.

Book Description
Acclaimed for its unique ecosystem and Royal Bengal tigers, the mangrove islands that comprise the Sundarbans area of the Bengal delta are the setting for this pioneering anthropological work. The key question that the author explores is: what do tigers mean for the islanders of the Sundarbans? The diverse origins and current occupations of the local population produce different answers to this question – but for all, ‘the tiger question’ is a significant social marker. Far more than through caste, tribe or religion, the Sundarbans islanders articulate their social locations and interactions by reference to the non-human world – the forest and its terrifying protagonist, the man-eating tiger. The book combines rich ethnography on a little-known region with contemporary theoretical insights to provide a new frame of reference to understand social relations in the Indian subcontinent. It will be of interest to scholars and students of anthropology, sociology, development studies, religion and cultural studies, as well as those working on environment, conservation, the state and issues relating to discrimination and marginality.

Book Description
John Wiggins is a 17-year-old who enjoys painting as much as riding his motorcycle in the Australian bush. In this coming of age story, John finds his spiritual path through a life of adventure, as he literally helps to create a new world. During a global depression, John meets Dr. Wu, an economics professor devoted to environmental activism and mystical Chinese screen painting. Hiking in the mountains, John, Dr. Wu, and a group of friends swim to an island in the middle of a lake, camping near an ancient Aboriginal cave. With the stars overhead, John awakens to an experience of the universe that changes his life forever. He later joins Dr. Wu in rural India where an eco-city is emerging, but corrupt officials attack the city and the two escape back to Australia. They begin a new social movement, built on the dream of a world where people live in harmony, much like the Aborigines. John transforms from an unsure teenager into a strong, confident, spiritual warrior for planet Earth. To Color a Warrior will change your world, too. Author Matt Oppenheim completed his PhD focusing on transformation in a Mayan community.A former monk, he was the founding principal of an alternative school in the Australian bush. He teaches anthropology at universities and is a consultant for youth social justice, service learning and community leadership. It inspires us with hope for the future of our planet, humanity and all living things. - Dada Maheshvarananda, author A deeply ecological, spiritual, and visionary story, hinting at a world of greater justice and meaning, leaving the reader with a longing for a spiritual quest of their own. - Andy Douglas, adjunct English professor, University of Iowa Publisher's website: http: //SBPRA.com/MattOppenhei
