The Upside of Down is a powerful true story of resilience, as John Ulsh recounts his journey from a catastrophic accident and a near-hopeless prognosis to overcoming immense physical and emotional challenges—offering readers an inspiring roadmap to rebuilding their lives, embracing adversity, and reclaiming their personal power.One December afternoon, John Ulsh and his family were laughing and looking forward to picking out the perfect Christmas tree. Then—impact. Metal twisted, glass shattered, and life as he knew it was torn apart. The next thing John remembers is waking up in a hospital bed from a coma. John and his family were hit head-on in a collision with a combined impact of 125 mph. Given less than a 3 percent chance of survival, he spent weeks in a coma, months in hospitals and rehabs, and years in recovery. With his body shattered, he endured more than forty-five surgeries, relentless pain, and a long road to rebuilding both his body and mind—refusing to let tragedy define him. The Upside of Down is more than a story of survival—it’s a roadmap for resilience. Through raw storytelling and actionable strategies, John shares the principles that helped him move beyond survival and rebuild his life. Readers will learn how to: - Understand the real source of your struggles—because the surface problem is rarely the true obstacle. - Create a written plan—a roadmap that keeps you moving forward even when motivation fades. - Take the first step—because change doesn’t happen until you do something about it. - Fall in love with the process—because real growth isn’t just about reaching the goal; it’s about who you become along the way. - Turn setbacks into stepping stones—by reframing challenges as opportunities for growth. - Build unshakable consistency—because success isn’t about motivation; it’s about showing up every day. - Surround themselves with the right people—because no one overcomes adversity alone. - Shift from external validation to personal fulfillment—because true success is measured by inner growth, not outside approval. This book will challenge you to confront what holds you back, inspire you to take action, and remind you that each day is a gift—don’t wait to live it.

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER NOW A MAJOR TV SERIES starring Pierce Brosnan and co-written by Philipp Meyer The critically acclaimed, New York Times-bestselling epic, a saga of land, blood and power, follows the rise of one unforgettable Texas family from the Comanche raids of the 1800s to the oil booms of the 20th century. Eli McCullough is just twelve years old when a marauding band of Comanche storm his Texas homestead, brutally murder his mother and sister and take him captive. Despite their torture and cruelty, Eli - against all odds - adapts to life with the Comanche, learning their ways and language, taking on a new name, finding a place as the adopted son of the band's chief and fighting their wars against not only other Indians but white men too, which complicates his sense of loyalty, his promised vengeance and his very understanding of self. But when disease, starvation and westward expansion finally decimate the Comanche, Eli is left alone in a world in which he belongs nowhere, neither white nor Indian, civilized nor fully wild. Deftly interweaving Eli's story with those of his son Peter and his great-granddaughter JA, The Son maps the legacy of Eli's ruthlessness, his drive to power and his lifelong status as an outsider, even as the McCullough family rises to become one of the richest in Texas, a ranching and oil dynasty that is as resilient and dangerous as the land they claim. Yet, like all empires, the McCulloughs must eventually face the consequences of their choices. Panoramic, deeply evocative and utterly transporting, The Son is a masterpiece American novel - part epic of Texas, part classic coming-of-age story - that combines the narrative prowess of Larry McMurtry with the knife-edge sharpness of Cormac McCarthy. 'Stunning ...a book that for once really does deserve to be called a masterpiece' Kate Atkinson 'Magnificent ...McCarthy's Border Trilogy is a point of reference, as is There Will Be Blood, but it is not fanciful to be reminded of certain passages from Moby-Dick - it's that good'The Times 'Brilliant ...a wonderful novel' Lionel Shriver

In this picture book for young children, we meet a little fir tree sapling who is stretching her first leaves into a dark ancient forest full of huge trees.

The fungal network sends her message all over the forest! "little tree needs help!" The message reaches mother trees who can't spare the energy from their own little ones, others who are sick and can't help but ultimately, one friendly paper birch tree helps her in her time of need. When the winter comes and birch tree needs help in return, the strong, not so little fir tree withe her evergreen leaves can come to the rescue. Our little tree learns that she is part of a loving, caring community, filled with family and kind strangers of entirely different species. She learns all the ways that there are to care and be cared for, and most importantly that she is not alone. After all, the forest is only as strong as its smallest tree. Trees can communicate using up to '50 words' and can send messages of distress, warn each other about incoming danger in the form of disease or pests, learn which trees are their parents and which are their offspring. If a tree is in danger, others can send spare sugars and water via the network and even sabotage trees they see as a threat. And they do it all via the wood wide web. This is a powerful book, that teaches children about a hugely important discovery in contemporary science, about a secret world beneath our feet and most importantly, about the strength that comes with asking for help, and discovering that you are not alone.
