Book Description
A secret talisman has been discovered. Well, sort of. Because other than its name, the Wolf’s Cane, no one knows what it looks like, where it’s located or what its powers are. One thing that is for certain is that there are two secret societies desperately searching for it. A talisman that is linked to the control of the worlds of the living and the dead. Mabel Stewart returns for another thrilling adventure when she makes her now annual return to her grandfather Chamberlain’s house in a small town in Wisconsin. Having found the first piece of the puzzle in their last mystery, Mabel, her younger brother Izzy, and her best friend Henrietta Cooper, continue their quest of locating the second piece of the five pieces necessary to complete the ancient, master talisman. Along with new supernatural allies, secret family members they didn’t know existed, and a visit to their grandfather’s hometown in England, Mabel is also about to discover that evil is everywhere. And on top of all that, she still has to deal with the shallow, social media obsessed kids in her school.

Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
The police. You know everything about them. Or do you? To a lot of people, the world of police officers is a secretive and mysterious place. They’re either omnipresent or never around. Saving lives or roughing people up. Being jerks or buying groceries for a family caught shoplifting for food. In reality, all of the above are true. But what’s not known is why it’s true. Like any job, there are things about policing the general public doesn’t know (or want to know) about. And given the age we live in, the proliferation of police experts who don’t know anything about policing has exploded. So many experts with so little knowledge giving away so much bad advice. This is a guide with real life humorous examples on how to successfully deal with police written by a nearly 30-year veteran police sergeant. A guide to improving police-community relations. A guide to understanding why cops do what they do. And most importantly, a guide to avoiding ending your night wearing orange jammies. Oh, and don't forget wearing underwear that hundreds of other people have worn too. Yes, that's what really happens.

Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
