Book Description
Why Elephants Cry is a fascinating frolic through the literature and evidence surrounding the use of unusual behavior of animals to measure and predict the environment. The role of animals, from the smallest ant to the biggest elephant, as predictors of environmental changes is framed around the climate crisis, which highlights the increasingly important part that animals will have to play in the future. Renowned biologist Professor John T. Hancock collects anecdotal stories and myths along with scientific evidence, demonstrating that observation of animals can be of tangible use. He looks at the measurement of the air temperature using ants, crickets and snakes, and goes on to assess the evidence that the observation of a wide range of animals can predict the weather or the imminent eruption of volcanoes and earthquakes. Evidence of animals being able to predict lunar and solar events, such as lunar cycles and the Northern Lights, is also considered. This is the only time that all this literature has been brought together in one place, a fascinating reference for anybody interested in animals and the environment. The book is also an ideal supplementary textbook for students studying animal behaviour.

Book Description
A new queen must save the Realm. But those who would deny her the crown are strong. Lish Taylor may have come to accept that she’s the rightful Queen of Airlie, but when the Custodian of the throne accuses her of murder before she can make her claim, she is forced to retreat to a neighbouring court without her crown or title. Both the Realm and her home continent of Driarn are still dying, and Lish needs two things to stop their destruction: the authority of the crown, and the remaining pieces of the Blue Pointed Star. Underground assassin Aeyva Kaylneau is one step closer to fulfilling her lifelong dream of becoming a Sentinel. But even as she helps forge Lish’s path to the crown, Aeyva’s past allegiances jeopardise everything she is fighting for and bring the Court of Airlie to its knees. Determined to form a powerful alliance to aid her ascension to the throne, Lish and her friends set out to arm themselves with valuable knowledge — knowledge another court will take in return for supporting an un-crowned Queen. But what they uncover is a much more sinister plan that will mean the downfall of not just the Realm, but the human world as well. As the human and Calahi worlds crumble around them, Lish and Aeyva must battle towering forces of magic and avarice to save both worlds — and the people they love. But even as the pieces fall into place, the path ahead threatens to destroy all they hold dear.
