Mississippi Barking: Hurricane Katrina and a Life That Went to the Dogs
by Chris McLaughlinWinner of a 2023 Best Book Award in the category of Animals/Pets: Narrative Nonfiction from American Book FestOn August 29, 2005, the worst natural disaster in the history of the United States devastated the city of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast of Louisiana and Mississippi. Like many others in America and around the world, Chris McLaughlin watched the tragedy of Katrina unfold on a television screen from the comfort of her living room on Cape Cod in Massachusetts. In the devastation afterwards, almost 2,000 people and an estimated 250,000 animals had perished. Miraculously, many pets did manage to survive. But in the months that followed the hurricane, thousands of them were fending for themselves in the ruins of devastated neighborhoods. They roamed the streets in feral packs or struck out alone. Their plight triggered a grassroots rescue effort unlike any this country had ever seen, and while relief organizations such as the Red Cross were tending to the human survivors, and movie stars and celebrities were airlifting food and endorsing seven-figure checks, a much smaller and meagerly funded effort was underway to save the four-legged victims. With no prior experience in disaster response and no real grasp of the hell that awaited them, scores of animal lovers, including McLaughlin, made their way to the Gulf Coast to help in any way they could. Including photos from four-time Pulitzer Prize–winning photojournalist Carol Guzy, Mississippi Barking spans the course of two years as McLaughlin and others ventured into the wreckage of the Gulf Coast to rescue the animals left behind. McLaughlin tells the moving stories of the people she met along the way, both those who lost everything to the hurricane and those working beside her rescuing and transporting animals away from the neglected, derelict conditions in which they barely survived. Within this story of tragedy and cruelty, suffering and ignorance, Mississippi Barking also bears witness to selfless acts of bravery and compassion, and the beauty and heroics of those who risked everything to save the animals that could not save themselves.
Mississippi's Natural Heritage: Photographs of Flora and Fauna
by Wesley L. ShoopMississippi's Natural Heritage: Photographs of Flora and Fauna glories in the plants and animals of the state. Featuring four hundred beautiful color photographs and a complete index of included species, Mississippi's Natural Heritage is the first book of its kind dedicated to Mississippi's natural world. Photographer Wesley L. Shoop spent years photographing a vast array of invertebrates, fossils, amphibians and reptiles, birds, mammals, plants, and fungi, and the book features a section dedicated to each group. The photographs in this book were taken in LeFleur's Bluff State Park, a dazzling, well-known Mississippi park and urban natural area that exemplifies the biota of Mississippi. Over a thousand species of flora and fauna have been identified on the park's bluff and floodplain. All of these species can be found in forests, parks, and backyards across the state. LeFleur's Bluff is a fascinating microcosm of Mississippi's ecological community. Shoop has created this breathtaking collection of images in the hope that by illustrating the living diversity found in Mississippi, it can inspire a greater appreciation of what we have and how impoverished we will be if we do not protect it.

El misterio de Punta Escondida (Rexcatadores #Volumen 1)
by Juan Gómez-Jurado Bárbara Montes¡Acción, humor y aventuras! Primera entrega de una divertida serie infantil «Los Rexcatadores» firmada por Juan Gómez Jurado, junto a la psicóloga infantil Bárbara Montes. Imagina que tus padres te envían a pasar las vacaciones con tus estrafalarios abuelos en una casa perdida en un lugar llamado Punta Escondida, lejos de tus amigos y de la Play. No parece el mejor plan, ¿verdad? Imagina ahora que tu abuela cocina tartas mágicas capaces de hacerte volar por los aires, que tu abuelo tiene un laboratorio lleno de inventos alucinantes y que en el desván vive un tipo verde y enorme llamado Rex que, a pesar de sus terroríficas fauces y su larga cola, es de lo más encantador. Eso ya suena bastante mejor, ¿no? Y si además conoces a una niña un poco rarita pero muy simpática, y vivís juntos la mayor aventura que jamás hubieras imaginado, entonces puede que estas sean las mejores vacaciones de tu vida... Comienza a leer...«El pueblo de Bahía Calamar parecía sacado de una de esas postales que le enviaban mamá y papá cuando salían de viaje de fin de semana y él se quedaba con la canguro: no muy grande, con calles empedradas y casas con fachadas pintadas de rojo, amarillo, azul, rosa... Si hubiese una palabra que lo definiese a la perfección, esa palabra sería ABURRIDO. El camino de la costa no era más que un camino de tierra, con la playa (enorme, de arena fina y blanca) a un lado y, al otro, un frondoso bosque de enormes robles, hayas y muchos otros tipos de árboles que él no conocía... Tal vez tilos y fresnos. Max caminaba pensando en lo desafortunado que era, en lo mucho que echaba de menos la ciudad, a sus amigos y sus videojuegos. En lo maravilloso que habría sido el verano con todos esos largos días por delante para jugar con la consola en el sofá de su casa, ver la tele y bajar de vez en cuando a la piscina del lujoso bloque de pisos en el que vivía con sus padres. Tan inmerso en esos pensamientos caminaba, que no se dio cuenta de que alguien le seguía, escondiéndose entre los árboles...»
