No one is more curious and questioning than a small child as he discovers and tries to make sense of the whole big world around him. Rob Wood captures this sentiment delightfully in Why Don't Horses Wear Pajamas? Join Wyatt (Rob's grandson) as he shares some of the unblemished questions rambling through his little head on a daily basis. Rob Thouless's charming illustrations breathe life into Wyatt's queries with characters portrayed just as a young child might envision them and they show us how life is a lot more fun when examined through the eyes of a four year old. Why Don't Horses Wear Pajamas? is the first book in the Wyatt Wonders Series that also includes Why Don't Worms Have Heads?, Why Don't Kids Have Tails? and Why Don't Fireflies Need Batteries?

A terrorist threat is communicated to the U.S. Navy in Nushu, an old Chinese script understood only by women. Cody Cochrane, an American student, argues the threat is real. When the Navy encounters a radiation victim and a corpse is mutilated, Cochrane seems vindicated. Working with Lieutenant James Purdy, she implicates a Hong Kong movie star and businesswoman with ties to the Uighurs -- Muslim-Turkic rebels in western China. What if Purdy and Cochrane are wrong? Perhaps nothing is as it seems and the real threat is yet to be discovered.

To many folks the phrase “growing up in the fifties” brings to mind the suburban lifestyles romanticized by Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best…my Technicolor recollections paint a much different picture. Admittedly, my mom had a few things in common with June Cleaver, but the words “father knows best” never occurred to me during that entire decade. Those households were built on the cornerstones of patience and understanding. Bullethead, my father, employed a more unconventional style of parenting. Let’s Scare Mom looks back through my eyes at the 1950s and lays open some of my more memorable adventures growing up on a ranch with two brothers and my best friend, confidant, and canine companion…Snorkie. Laced throughout the chapters is an unmistakable message addressing family dynamics that will surely conjure up events of your own childhood. Some of these experiences were humorous hailstorms of spontaneous dysfunction, while others served as milestones and harbored pivotal life lessons. Each episode left its mark like a raw cleave in un-sculpted stone. Perhaps most importantly, they helped me to view life through the lens of levity and led to an important realization: happiness is not a randomly allocated state of mind…but more a personal decision.

The compelling story of one family’s life among the rugged landscapes of the Coast Mountains, converting youthful ideals, raw land and a passion for the outdoors into a practical off-grid homestead.
 Rob Wood grew up in a village on the edge of the Yorkshire Moors, where he eventually developed an obsessive preoccupation with rock climbing. After studying architecture for five years at the Architectural Association School in London, England, and becoming an architect, he made his way to Montreal, then to Winnipeg and ended up in Calgary. During his time in Canada, Rob became a pioneer of ice climbing and posted numerous first ascents in the Rockies.
 Eventually, life in corporate Alberta proved unfulfilling and Rob realized that he needed to find a place where he could reconnect with nature, which brought him to the remote reaches of Canada’s West Coast. Settling on Maurelle Island, he and his wife built an off-the-grid homestead and focused on alternative communities and developing a small house-design practice specializing in organic and wholesome building techniques.
 At Home in Nature is a gentle and philosophical memoir that focuses on living a life deeply rooted in the natural world, where citizens are connected to the planet and individuals work together to help, enhance and make the world a better – and sustainable – place.

Review\n"Mathematician Kurt Gödel published the incompleteness theorem in 1931. His study of mathematics had unearthed the notion that if a mathematical formula is comprised entirely of provable axioms, the formula will never be correct. For a formula to be correct there must be an element that is unprovable. Mathematics is beyond mechanistic. Rob Wood connects to this truth: the elements that are beyond being completely knowable are the pieces that make our connection to nature and ourselves whole. Furthermore, when we step into being present with this mystery, we have the opportunity to understand ourselves, others and the environment at a much higher level, so we can perform in ways we never thought possible." --Ken Wylie, author of Buried and founder of Archetypal: Mindfulness Applications for Risk Management 
"Rob Wood has crafted an inspiring introduction to being 'in the zone' as an attunement to the intelligence and flow of nature. Through rich anecdotes from his decades of mountaineering, and lively treatment of selected scientists and Indigenous world views, Rob guides his readers along the path of letting go of cultural conditioning, paying attention to our surroundings, and opening up ways of experiencing nature that provide rewards for all of us, whether seeking spiritual freedom or coping with a challenging disease." --Christopher Ives, author of Zen on the Trail: Hiking as Pilgrimage and Meditations on the Trail: A Guidebook for Self-Discovery\nA brief personal meditation on the healing power of living a life connected to the sublime beauty of the natural world. 
Based on the core philosophy expressed in the forthcoming documentary film of the same name, The Zone is an autobiographical account that details the emotional and physical struggles of renowned mountaineer, naturalist, and architect Rob Wood as he deals with the ravages of Parkinson’s disease on his body and mind. 
With an unshakeable faith in the power of nature and our own need to reconnect with the natural world, Rob Wood takes the reader on a step-by-step journey documenting how ― through the author’s deep connection to what he calls a “universal consciousness” ― even the most difficult physical limitations can be dealt with effectively and successfully, with limited medical or pharmaceutical support. 
The Zone is an inspiring manifesto of resilience and a love song to the power of nature.
