“In the magical world of Lydia Harris’s poems, books are transformed into windows, hearts, birds, ghosts - even stars. History, landscape and love are woven together in poems which are celebratory, uplifting, reverential and sublime. Lydia Harris is a poet who brings new meaning to the word unique.” —John Glenday “What better moment than this, on the brink of a digital, screen-facing age, to recover the almost supernatural power of early books – how physical materials, calf skin, pigment, quill pen, ink, could be alive with other times and presences, and all our human feelings, maybe even God? These poems perform that paradox – to be small, alertly at home in particular place, while opening on a wealth of worlds beyond. In them, boundaries dissolve – between the local and the universal, fact and fable, the colloquial and the biblical, the human and non-human, between the 16th century and today. Through the opening Henrietta steps, both grave and playful, with a bright rapt curiosity that feels like praise.” —Philip Gross “What a delight it is to enter Henrietta’s world. Collating an imagined repository of knowledge from, and for, ‘the whole wide world’, she draws manuscripts, stones, seals, herons, boats, the earth and sea into her linguistic inventory. Like a word-farmer, she shepherds, cares for, and cultivates texts. Through Henrietta, Harris explores language and books as containers, explainers, archives, descriptors, and exchange. Her lightness of touch creates joyously airy music, fresh as a ‘newly caulked boat’. Precise, compassionate, and buoyant, Henrietta’s Library of the Whole Wide World reminds us of the hope inherent in the creation and collection of books, and our fundamental quest for shared experience and understanding.” —Heidi Williamson

Titles in the Pets' Guides series teach young readers how to care responsibly for their chosen pet. However, in a unique spin, each book is written from the point of view of one of the animals themselves, thus also allowing the books to be used to teach perspective. In this book, Henrietta the Chicken reveals how readers should go about choosing chickens, what supplies they will need, how to make a new chicken feel at home, and how to properly care for chickens, including feeding, exercising, and keeping a chicken coop clean. Text in the book is accompanied by clear, labelled photographs to further reinforce key concepts.

She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors, yet her cells—taken without her knowledge—became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture, which are still alive today, though she has been dead for more than sixty years. HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine; uncovered secrets of cancer, viruses, and the atom bomb’s effects; helped lead to important advances like in vitro fertilization, cloning, and gene mapping; and have been bought and sold by the billions. Yet Henrietta Lacks remains virtually unknown, buried in an unmarked grave. Henrietta’s family did not learn of her “immortality” until more than twenty years after her death, when scientists investigating HeLa began using her husband and children in research without informed consent. And though the cells had launched a multimillion-dollar industry that sells human biological materials, her family never saw any of the profits. As Rebecca Skloot so brilliantly shows, the story of the Lacks family—past and present—is inextricably connected to the dark history of experimentation on African Americans, the birth of bioethics, and the legal battles over whether we control the stuff we are made of. Over the decade it took to uncover this story, Rebecca became enmeshed in the lives of the Lacks family—especially Henrietta’s daughter Deborah. Deborah was consumed with questions: Had scientists cloned her mother? Had they killed her to harvest her cells? And if her mother was so important to medicine, why couldn’t her children afford health insurance? Intimate in feeling, astonishing in scope, and impossible to put down, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks captures the beauty and drama of scientific discovery, as well as its human consequences.

The greatest gift the world has is God’s love for us. The love God has for us precipitated God sending us Jesus to bring us back into a loving fellowship with him. With all the hate, evil, and pain that exist in the world, humanity cannot forget the power of love and the sovereignty of God. God is love, and since God is sovereign, love still reigns not only in the hearts of men and women but in the heart of God, and it is inextricably interwoven within our salvation story. Our Christian salvific story is one of love; it is a narrator of love. We were made to love and made to be loved. We were made in the image of God, and God being love denotes we were made to love, be loved, and desire a relationship with those we love. God desires a relationship with us because he loves us. The love of the Father is manifested through the deeds of Jesus Christ in the Father’s desired to be back in relationship with his creation. The love God has for his creation must be dramatize and visualized in how we love one another and relate to those we love. God’s will need to be done on earth as it is in heaven. Henrietta Hunter’s Jesus My Valentine explores how interconnected the love we experience in our personal lives (i.e. romantically, platonically) to our love for God. She demonstrates this by outlining how the love and passion that the lover in Songs of Solomon possesses for his love is an extended analogy to God’s love for us and how God’s people ought to pursue him as their lover. Her work calls readers to experience God’s love through the way we experience love with others; reciprocally, the way readers experience love with one another is the same way readers are to experience being in love with God. Henrietta introduced the magnitude of love on a horizontal level, which is eye level, a level reader can grasp and then raise our spiritual conscious to above-eye level, which is a vertical love. Jesus My Valentine argues both are necessary to truly make Jesus our valentine. It is when Jesus become our valentine that we come to know true love and the true meaning of true love, realizing it is impossible for Jesus to be your valentine without the love of people and the people without Jesus being your valentine is not possible. Henrietta’s journey within Jesus My Valentine takes us from the historicity of Valentine’s Day to the evolution of how we contemporarily celebrate Valentine’s Day. She matriculates from a historical view of Valentine’s Day to a theological view of Valentine’s Day, moving from an anthropocentric (human) view of love to a theocentric (God) view of love. Jesus My Valentine calls readers to replicate the wooing they extend on Valentines for their lovers to how readers approach and love on Jesus. Henrietta outlines how readers are to love Jesus and make him their valentine in very practical ways. If you asked Henrietta how to make Jesus your valentine? According to this text, she would suggest it is like the way a wife knows her husband and the way a husband gets to know his wife. It is a love that comes from a knowledge that is only generated by living together, by responding to each other’s daily interests and by the needs, and by listening and being present.
