When values of acceptance and kindness are instilled early, children's minds and worlds expand. That is the lesson of this extraordinary new children's book – Just Like You – an endearing tale about Henry, a deaf field mouse and his best friend Boris, a spider with a bad leg who are bullied. They live in The Piney Forest with the other animals who tease and taunt them because they don't act, walk or talk like the others. After repeated attempts to fit in, a discouraged Boris and Henry are forced to stay by themselves. When fire threatens their forest homes, Boris and Henry rally to help their fellow critters and teach us about character and honor. This book was released October 1, 2011 to coincide with Anti-Bullying and National Disabilities month. This is a great resource to teach our children that we are all special. Great resource for reading and sharing at home too!! (2:01)

This definitive television and home video documentary explores the re-emergence of one of the most important scientific discoveries in history. Cold Fusion burst onto the world scene in 1989 with a press conference at the University of Utah–ironically less than 12 hours before the Exxon Valdez disaster. This much-maligned, yet now confirmed discovery may very well radically change the energy structure of civilization in the 21st century. It is already challenging our understanding of the very nature of matter.

Grainy, blurred vintage film--after all, it is more than a hundred years old--but one can still see the damage inflicted by the earthquake.This short documentary is suitable for older elementary, middle school, and high school students. The California earthquake of April 18, 1906 ranks as one of the most significant earthquakes of all time. Today, its importance comes more from the wealth of scientific knowledge derived from it than from its sheer size. (04:58)
