This fifth book of a pre-school series of six titles developed in accordance with the government's new foundation guidelines focuses on trips out and real-life adventures - such as trips to the zoo and holidays. It includes making a bottle organ, plants and seed, the jungle at night, looking at pond creatures, making a bee mobile and a (Jewish) Succot shelter. The government guidelines have six core early learning goals which are incorporated into each title in the series: physical development; creative development; personal, social and emotional development; communication, language and literacy; mathematical development and knowledge and understanding of the world. These new goals are not age-related, but attained in stepping stones stages that children aged 3 to 5 can work through at their own pace. Play and Learn incorporates this stepping stone ideology, with Book 1 being the easiest and Book 6 being the hardest. Each book uses colourful artwork and stimulating scenarios.

Large inscription to previous owner signed by Glennis Dennehy. Based on in-depth interviews with ten women who, like Glennis Dennehy, are former gang associates. This book widens the understanding and dispels some of the myths about the secretive worlds of New zealand gangs. It considers how and why women get into gangs, the inferior roles they occupy, the dynamics that them there (including violence, gang rape and intimidation), and the means by whIch women can escape gang control. In examining gang violence against women, the book confronts issues common to all forms of domestic violence -a point emphasised in the foreword by Merepeka Raukawa-Tait. An appendix provides the first published history and development of New Zealand gangs.Thoroughly researched and frankly written, this is a book that may quite literally save lives. For a number of years until 1991, through her former husband, Glennis Dennehy was associated with one of New Zealand's largest motorcycle gangs. Signed by Author(s).
