Educational research has shown the significance of children learning to recognize numbers, their spelling, and simple arithmetic facts from early childhood and into the beginning years of formal education. Knowing that his grandchildren were involved in virtual education as early as the age of four, Dr. Bowman started writing and illustrating stories for this age group around the theme of mathematics. This book is an outgrowth of those early projects. Children, parents, and teachers will enjoy the marriage of a fictional story along with the presentation of number facts. Parents and teachers who are concerned about helping their children to live in a multicultural world will appreciate the varied ethnicities of Bowman's characters, too.

Bowman places his two young friends, one from Kenya and the other from the United States, in a sleep-over one night. The girls wake up in the morning and discover there was a snowstorm overnight. They eat breakfast and talk about what breakfast is like in each country. Then out into the snow they go. They cope with a large snowball rolling off the snowman they are making. And two children playing together will have some tensions to work at creatively, sometimes with adult help. Children naturally enjoy playing, living, and learning cross-culturally when families and society allow them that freedom. Young school-age children will enjoy Bowman’s story and cartoon-like illustrations.

A novel about a troubled Irish family on the eve of the Easter Rising by a Man Booker Prize–winning author. In 1916, with the First World War raging across Europe, Andrew Chase-White, lieutenant in the British army, travels to Ireland to see his family. Though he was raised in England by Protestant parents, many of his relations still live on the Emerald Isle, and are Catholic and nationalist through and through. Andrew’s arrival in Dublin is the only spark needed to ignite old resentments, new passions, political tensions, and religious crises, sending the family into a torrent of fights and alliances, affairs and betrayals. And as the historic gunfire begins at the General Post Office on the day of the Easter Rebellion, the lives of Andrew and his relations will be indelibly changed. At once an exploration of the tumultuous political landscape of World War I Dublin and an examination of family, love, and loyalty, The Red and the Green is a compelling novel of Englishness and Irishness that continues to stand the test of time and history.
