Tales of Barnaby Grange
￥24.43
At Barnaby Grange the garden is abuzz with life. All through the seasons little creatures are bustling about among the flowers and shrubs, never stopping until the very coldest days of winter. They are building and repairing their homes, searching for food and trying to keep out of trouble. They also like to get together now and then for a chat, especially in the fine, long days of summertime. Milly Pede is perhaps the busiest creature of them all. Her tiny legs are hardly ever still as she hurries to and fro, keeping a watchful eye on all her friends and neighbours at Barnaby Grange.
I Was On That Train
￥58.76
The sooty, bellowing, clattering steam trains of another era gave every journey an atmosphere of excitement and expectancy. The whole course of a traveller's life might depend on whether he caught the nine fifty or the ten ten; his fate might be decided by his choice of compartments. In each of these short stories a train journey provides the backdrop for a momentous encounter or life-changing experience, but each story has a different twist. There is comedy as well as tragedy, romance as well as mystery and fellow travellers include figures from history, guardian angels and ghosts!

Next Level
￥98.00
The Next Level is not a conventional business book. It sets out to challenge assumptions and offers an alternative approach to old, traditional ways of business thinking. This book takes a refreshingly new look at how you, as a Leader, can achieve success with sustainable profit and growth, through an alignment of both yourself and your business. Laurence Udell utilises his own tried and tested thinking, life experience alongside research from leading edge philosophers, scientists, psychologists, and management thinkers to develop the 4 A's Strategy Model. Through this profoundly inspirational model, the book demonstrates how to work with your current business strategy, its dynamics, patterns and underlying root issues, to create a changed world for your business and yourself, the outcomes being greater financial success and a clearer understanding your own unique role and purpose. The Author's premise is that the health of an organisation is directly attributable to the spiritual, psychological and wellbeing of the leader and the leadership team. With The Next Level he advocates that long-term success and shareholder value can be achieved alongside ethical, authentic leadership and community spirit.
