Synopsis A Hole in the Wind by : David Goodrich
An epic bicycle journey across the American hinterland that explores the challenges of climate change alongside a diverse array of American voices. After a distinguished career in climate science as the Director of the UN Global Climate Observing System in Geneva, David Goodrich returned home to the United States to find a nation and a people in denial. Concerned that the American people are willfully deluded by the misinformation about climate that dominates media and politics, David thought a little straight talk could set things right. As they say in Animal House, he decided that "this calls for a stupid and futile gesture on someone's part, and I'm just the guy to do it." Starting on the beach in Delaware, David rode his bike 4,200 miles to Oregon, talking with the people he met on the ultimate road trip. Along the way he learned a great deal about why climate is a complicated issue for many Americans and even more about the country we all share. Climate change is the central environmental issue of our time. But A Hole in the Wind is also about the people Dave met and the experiences he had along the way, like the toddler's beauty pageant in Delaware, the tornado in Missouri, rust-belt towns and their relationship with fracking, and the mined-out uranium ghost town in Wyoming. As he rides, David will discuss the climate with audiences varying from laboratories to diners to elementary schools. Beautifully simple, direct, and honest, A Hole in the Wind is a fresh, refreshing ride through a difficult and controversial topic, and a rich read that makes you glad to be alive.

Synopsis A Hole Through The Wind by : Alan Patterson
Two horses, twin brothers at birth, couldn't be more different. Big Brother, the larger, stronger horse has the physique of a champion. He is the sensation of the horse-racing world. But Little Brother - smaller, pigeon-toed, and hidden away - has the heart of a winner. The racehorse breeder and his family who nurture him with love believe he deserves his chance. But, can Little Brother beat his much-favored sibling when their paths cross at the most famous of all horse races, the Kentucky Derby? In this semi-autobiographical story, veteran jockey Alan Patterson takes you into the world of professional horse racing, where the will to win is a must, but the love for horses makes the difference.

Synopsis What Color Is the Wind? by : Anne Herbauts
A blind child questions all he encounters--a dog, wolf, elephant, mountain, bird, stream, and tree--about the color of the wind. Each responds differently, with a shape, color, smell, texture, or idea. Each page displays a visual and tactile palette of cutouts, textures, colors. It is a sensory experience that makes the invisible experiential, ending with the wind as the pages fly. A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, Anne Herbauts expresses an original world in each of her books. Awake to the richness of the world, endlessly curious, and rigorous in her work, Anne has written and illustrated over twenty books.
