      59th Street Bridge Song

      • 24 pages
      • 1 hour of reading

      Paul Simon's groovy anthem to New York City provides a joyful basis for this live-for-the-day picture book. "Slow down, you move too fast You got to make the mornin' last Just kicking down the cobblestones Lookin' for fun and feelin' groovy..." The 59th Street Bridge Song is a lively picture book based on legendary songwriter Paul Simon's classic hit, created when he was one half of the folk rock duo Simon & Garfunkel. The song first appeared on their 1966 album Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme. In the US, the album peaked at #4 on Billboard's weekly Top 200 albums chart, and eventually went on to sell over three million copies in the US. With song lyrics by Simon and illustrations by Keith Henry Brown, this picture book follows a rabbit cycling through town, going about his day, and pausing to admire the "groovy" and lovable aspects of his surroundings. The 59th Street Bridge Song provides parents a perfect vehicle to teach kids an appreciation of life's little gifts.

      Whose Water Is It?

      The Unquenchable Thirst of a Water-Hungry World

      Less than one percent of the Earth's water is fresh and available for drinking, irrigation, and industry. By 2025, the UN predicts that over half the global population will lack sufficient water for basic needs. Daily, two million tons of waste contaminate water supplies, leading to water-related diseases that claim 10,000 to 20,000 children's lives each day. Since 1970, the water supply has decreased by 33 percent, highlighting mankind's historical disregard for this vital resource. The Aral Sea has turned into a salty desert, 90 percent of California's wetlands have disappeared, and major rivers like the Nile, Ganges, and Colorado barely reach the sea during dry seasons. This important work features 14 environmental writers who examine the impending water crisis, revealing that despite our planet's abundance of water, much is not accessible for use. They present alarming evidence of our rapid consumption outpacing replenishment, exacerbated by population growth and climate change. The essays explore the dire consequences of current trends, including desertification, disease, and conflicts over water ownership. Yet, they also propose strategies for averting disaster, emphasizing necessary changes in personal lives and industries for long-term solutions. Divided into four sections—Ownership, Scarcity, Conflict, and Prospects—this book offers a comprehensive look at the multifaceted water crisis and potential paths forward, f
