Unstoppable Us Volume 3: How Enemies Become Friends
"Brought to you by Puffin. Why is the world not always a peaceful place? Why do we have wars? And why do we sometimes . . . not? The answer to these questions can be found in one of the strangest tales you'll ever hear. And it's a true story. Find out about what exactly happened, thousands of years ago, when people from different tribes met. How they sometimes fought. But were sometimes able to live happily together. You’ll discover how we were able to agree on rules and ideas for how life should go. Why wars were (and still are) often fought, and what we can learn from the past to make a more peaceful future. From Rome to the Middle Ages, from Carthage to Mongolia, travel deep into the past, and around the world, to discover how people became friends and enemies, and built the world as we know it today. © Yuval Noah Harari 2026 (P) Penguin Audio 2026"

Sweet Justice: Georgia Gilmore and the Montgomery Bus Boycott
"An inspiring biography about the woman whose cooking helped feed and fund the Montgomery bus boycott of 1956. Georgia Gilmore was cooking when she heard the news Mrs. Rosa Parks had been arrested--pulled off a city bus and thrown in jail all because she wouldn't let a white man take her seat. To protest, the radio urged everyone to stay off city buses for one day: December 5, 1955. Throughout the boycott--at Holt Street Baptist Church meetings led by a young minister named Martin Luther King, Jr.--and throughout the struggle for justice, Georgia served up her mouth-watering fried chicken, her spicy collard greens, and her sweet potato pie, eventually selling them to raise money to help the cause. Here is the vibrant true story of a hidden figure of the civil rights movement, told in flavorful language by a picture-book master."
