The Adventures of Iggy the Rock is a humorous tale about the journey of a rock named Iggy and his travels to the earth's crust. Taking place millions of years ago on Pangea, young readers travel back in time to experience the growing pains of Iggy as he becomes an igneous rock, a sedimentary rock, and then a metamorphic rock. By animating each stage of the rock cycle in a comical manner, the story transforms the rock cycle from ordinary to sublimely terrestrial with human-like characteristics and wisdom. The main characters of this story include the wise and ageless Grandpa Neous, the hilarious conglomerate rock, Seddie, and a rock group called the Sediments. As there is little science fiction out there about the rock cycle, this story is an awesome resource for introducing the basics of the rock cycle to middle school learners. With a little over 1,400 words, this story is a perfect feature as a fictional story in a science textbook.

This book is a celebration of the diversity of cultural experiences amongst our Malaysian youths that is reflective of a small microcosm of Malaysia's society. In these personal narratives, we can read of cultural practices we may or may not be familiar with, how cultures have evolved through modernisation, how each person uniquely experiences culture, how one may choose to affirm or reject aspects of her/his culture she/he deems worthy or unworthy of preserving, and the enduring power culture seems to have over us. It is our hope that these stories could be read for pleasure or utilised in the classroom as reading materials. This collection of personal narratives aims to challenge the perspectives on Malaysian culture that is often reduced to stereotypical representations particularly in Malaysian textbooks by using the students' own lived experiences.
This book provides clues for the readers for self-help purpose, or even those who are going through psychotherapy and psychiatric treatments. Not every client is willing to bring out their inner fear to talk face-to-face with a psychologist, psychotherapist, counselor, or psychiatrist; they become more and more anxious about getting into depression. They'd rather choose drug therapy than discussion with the mental health professionals for the rest of their lives. My book is to encourage them to understand their situation and open up to express themselves freely by practicing mindfulness, to be rational in accepting the unchangeable in order to change positively by recruiting new ideas to spring courage for stepping forward. Distortion thought is the major problem of depression.In part 4 of this book, readers will learn to understand the importance of reasoning belief as the start in self-help. For the parents whose children are suffering from a mental illnesses or who have learning deficits and autism, in reading this book, they will be able to understand the symptoms of their children's disorders and help them with deeper concern to elicit their fear. Parents also suffer as much as their children do, because they have to endure social discrimination within the circle of the extended families for the abnormalities of their children, that people think they are the burden in a family and in a society and even think their children may be dangerous, a threat to their neighbors' safety. These ignorant people perceive their children in a skeptic manner. This discrimination is very discouraging and destructive to the parents' effort to keep up with the mental and psychological treatments to speed up their children recovery. As a matter of fact, the more discrimination people put on the mental disorders, the deeper hurts the parents or the adult clients have to bear, which could finally become a confounding of distrust for the clients to incline their illogical behavior, such as self-injury and aggression.For the couples who are facing chaos in marriage, they are able to learn to cope with difficult matters arising between wife and husband, and after reading this book, they can make an attempt to change and resolve their family problems by working together mutually. The aim of my book is to focus on reducing the occurrence of stressful situations people are facing that could result a family tragedy. And for those who are not having psychological problems or mental disorders, this book can help them to learn more about the symptoms for prevention.
What if the wise ones of ancient times were still around? What if Confucius himself were alive today? What would they say to us moderns, in this busy, next-computer, next-phone, space age of ours?
