We all live somewhere—in a house, an apartment, or maybe even on a farm— but wherever we live, we have to understand what makes our home amazing and what dangers we should look out for. Animals are no different. Whether they live in the ocean, the forest, or the grassy plains of Africa, young animals have to learn to be safe in their surroundings, even as they experience fun adventures. You are invited to join Jimmy The Giraffe, Sydney The Shark, and Gia The Grizzly Bear on their adventures, as they learn from their parents, and from experience, just how amazing and wild their homes are, and how to stay alive and be safe to enjoy all their surroundings have to offer. Each story is a learning adventure for young readers. An opportunity to learn about animals and their environments, how to understand our animal friends and how they live in their homes.

From live productions of the 1950s like Requiem for a Heavyweight to big budget mini-series like Band of Brothers, long-form television programs have been helmed by some of the most creative and accomplished names in directing. Encyclopedia of Television Film Directors brings attention to the directors of these productions, citing every director of stand alone long-form television programs: made for TV movies, movie-length pilots, mini-series, and feature-length anthology programs, as well as drama, comedy, and musical specials of more than 60 minutes. Each of the nearly 2,000 entries provides a brief career sketch of the director, his or her notable works, awards, and a filmography. Many entries also provide brief discussions of key shows, movies, and other productions. Appendixes include Emmy Awards, DGA Awards, and other accolades, as well as a list of anthology programs. A much-needed reference that celebrates these often-neglected artists, Encyclopedia of Television Film Directors is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the history of the medium.
