Book Description
'The tree suddenly jerked violently towards the river. The egrets tried to gather their eggs. They manage to grab one each and launch themselves off the collapsing tree, but as the male pushed away, he caught his feet amongst the leaves at what used to be the top of the tree. His feet became entangled and, as he fought to free them, he lost his grip and the egg fell. It splashed into the river and was swept rapidly away downstream, gone from sight...' Amazon Swamp Chicken is the nickname of Skeeta Stix, a young egret who was lost as an egg and raised by a family of alligators in the Florida swamps. Skeeta and his animal friends (Pede the salamander, Captain Jack the pelican and a host of chums) live in the friendly town of Willow Creek, where life revolves around chocolate milkshakes at the diner - but there is never a dull moment! Join Skeeta and the gang as they start a band, solve a heinous crime at the local casino (run by a loan shark), rescue a brood of lost moorhens and befriend a mysterious stranger from Hollywood. These four delightful and enchanting stories have been inspired by J. Frances Dunne's mother, who used to read The Wind in the Willows to her as a child and ignited in her a passion for reading. The collection will appeal to children aged 8 and older.

Book Description
All the advantages of a tiny house at a fraction of the cost! Imagine what you could do with your time if you didn't have to spend $16,000 a year on rent or a mortgage. Old single-wide mobile homes can often be found for free (and installed for a couple of thousand dollars) in rural areas, so trailersteading is akin to dumpster-diving. A trailer allows you to live without debt, to keep your ecological footprint to a minimum with energy bills at or below the national average, and even to blend right in alongside traditional-house dwellers after a few years. Trailersteading profiles thirteen mobile-home dwellers who have used trailers as a stepping stone toward achieving their dreams. Some have spent the cash saved to expedite renovations involving extra insulation, pitched roofs, classy interiors, and even basements, while the found money has allowed others to go off the grid. Many also took advantage of a low-cost housing option to pursue their passions, becoming full-time homemakers or homesteaders. In addition to the case studies, this book presents easy methods of minimizing the negative sides of trailer life while accentuating the positive. For example, did you know a single-wide is easy to retrofit for passive solar heating? That a simple plant-covered trellis can break up the blockiness of the trailer's external appearance? Learn which parts of installing and upgrading your trailer are easy for a DIYer and which parts should be left to the experts, along with how to cheaply heat and cool a mobile home.
