The Ocean of Truth: The Story of Sir Isaac Newton
by Joyce McPhersonSir Isaac Newton is one of history's most renowned scientists. He independently developed the mathematical technique known as Calculus, wrote a treatise on the properties of light and color that is still consulted by scientists, and worked out the mathematical details of the law of gravity. What is less well known is the depth of his Christian faith and the amount of writing, speaking, and research he devoted to defenses of the tenets of Biblical belief. This book makes Newton come alive for readers. From the detailed account of the events that led to his conversion, his Christian faith plays a central role in this biography, as it did in his life.
Ocean Girl
by Peter HepworthSet in the near future, this story features an unusual girl named Neri who lives alone on an island, speaking only to her friend "Jali" or Charley, a humpback whale.

Neri has super-human strength, super-human lung capacity, and most important for ORCA, the ability to talk to whales. A sinister plot unfolds when a rival research station captures the whale in a fenced bay, but Jason and Brett stage a daring rescue. This book is based on the first season of an Australian science fiction TV series.
