The Mirror Book
by Charlotte Grimshsaw
Growing up behind the family façade. Brave, explosive, and thoughtprovoking,
this is a powerful memoir from a critically acclaimed writer. ‘It’s
material, make a story out of it,’ was the mantra Charlotte Grimshaw grew up
with in her famous literary family. But when her life suddenly turned upsidedown,
she needed to re-examine the reality of that material. The more she
delved into her memories, the more the real characters in her life seemed to
object. So what was the truth of ‘a whole life lived in fiction’? This is a vivid
account of a New Zealand upbringing, where rebellion was encouraged,
where trouble and tragedy lay ahead. It looks beyond the public face to the
‘messy reality of family life - and much more’.

Jacinda Ardern: Leading with Empathy is a major biography of one of the
most important and inspirational leaders of the twenty-first century, based
on interviews with the New Zealand Prime Minister herself.

– personal, social, political and emotional – that have shaped Ardern.

as the prime minister’s public statements and speeches and the words of
those who know her. We visit the places, meet the people and understand
the events that propelled the daughter of a small-town Mormon policeman
into a committed social democrat, a passionate Labour Party politician, and
a model modern leader.
Kiwi Farmers’ Guide To Life
rural Tales from the Heartland by Tim Fulton
Kiwi Farmers’ Guide to Life does just that, telling stories of New
Zealand farmers, agribusiness entrepreneurs and even a couple
of scientists. Each one knows about sweat, quick thinking and the
importance of a sense of humour in the world of agriculture. From
a dive into farming history to a probe of modern agri issues, Kiwi
Farmers’ Guide to Life shows farmers at their finest and in some
cases - at their most vulnerable. At heart, these stories explore why
farmers do what they do, rather than how. So, put on your gumboots
and let’s take that road less travelled.
