The Curious World of Gecko ‘Da Echo 2 by Christy Lowry Pdf
Having just given the slip to his new family who he's barely met, Gecko ‘da Echo gives in to his urge to roam. So it's unknown when he'll go home. At Lahaina, where ships dock, he has his first mishap. A slippery banana peel trips him up; he does a back flip, landing him on a cargo ship! Knocked out, he doesn't come to until this ship has left port. He starts waking up as the ship's deck hands call attention to a mysterious dark cloud coming from Maui, his home now receding into the distance. As the cloud quickly gains on the ship, it turns into birds of prey, on the prowl for food. Gecko ‘da Echo successfully pulls a survival trick only geckos know; and finding no food, the rowdy birds leave. ‘Da Echo and the ship's crew survive to live another day!
The Curious World of Gecko ‘Da Echo by Christy, Lowry Pdf
How do geckos and humans meet? What brings them together? What adventures find them? In Oh, the Stories We Spin!, author Christy Lowry takes her readers along as she introduces a semi-tame gecko and a gecko-loving family to each other in Hawaii's Golden Isle. Together gecko and humans go through the ritual of meeting before their barely tame gecko, now sporting a name, polishes off his munch-a-lunch. His munch-a-bunch, is what, pray tell? Just what does he eat?! Not before the reader partly finds out, something spooks him. His sudden and speedy departure through the jungle cuts short their quest. One question still hangs on the hot humid air: Will he, on his own, come home?
Illustrated with over 150 color photographs, Crested Geckos is an authoritative, visual guide to this very popular lizard species. For their amazing colors and patterns, low maintenance requirements, longevity, and attractive appearance, crested geckos have captured the fancy of hobbyists. Crested Geckos provides guidelines for keepers who wish to select a crested gecko to add to their vivarium and to maintain their pet in excellent health and condition. Author Philippe de Vosjoli provides an introduction to crested gecko, including information about purchasing a healthy pet, handling, heating and housing, water and feeding, life cycle and sexing, and breeding. A separate chapter on diseases and disorders provides solid info on the health needs of these rewarding reptiles, including recognizing signs of disease, tail loss and pelvic deformities. The author has also written two chapters devoted to the color of crested geckos, their most alluring feature for many herpetoculturists. The chapters include discussions of color changes (as the gecko matures) and morphs, heavily illustrated with photographs of unusually colored crested geckos. For crested gecko keepers looking to expand their home populations, a chapter on the Rhacodactylus species describes five species with similar requirements despite their significantly different appearances, from the medium-sized knobby-headed gargoyle gecko to the giant Rhacodactylus leachianus.

Hugo and Shirley Jackson award-winning Peter Watts stands on the cutting edge of hard SF with his acclaimed novel, Blindsight Two months since the stars fell... Two months of silence, while a world held its breath. Now some half-derelict space probe, sparking fitfully past Neptune's orbit, hears a whisper from the edge of the solar system: a faint signal sweeping the cosmos like a lighthouse beam. Whatever's out there isn't talking to us. It's talking to some distant star, perhaps. Or perhaps to something closer, something en route. So who do you send to force introductions with unknown and unknowable alien intellect that doesn't wish to be met? You send a linguist with multiple personalities, her brain surgically partitioned into separate, sentient processing cores. You send a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultrasound. You send a pacifist warrior in the faint hope she won't be needed. You send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist—an informational topologist with half his mind gone—as an interface between here and there. Pray they can be trusted with the fate of a world. They may be more alien than the thing they've been sent to find. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
