This is the fourth book in a children's book series for 6 to 9 year olds about Alex and His Monsters. Alex gets teased at school and turns his feelings into shame. At home, these feelings get bigger and bigger and turn into a monster. Alex must confront and tame this monster by understanding how to deal with his feelings and not feel ashamed or lash out and shame others.
This commemorative tenth edition celebrates the contribution of the late author, Kenneth Newman, fully revised and updated by his daughter, Vanessa Newman, to reflect the latest research, taxonomy and common names. Newman's Birds of Southern Africa, a leading field guide in the region, illustrates and fully describes all the birds recorded from the Antarctic to the Zambezi River. The familiar, user-friendly format of Newman's Birds has been subtly modernized for a fresh look, and plate annotations have been added to the large, accurate paintings of each species, in line with modern trends.
