The planet earth. The importants of earth.

Luna, a young monarch butterfly, emerges from her chrysalis with a single instinct: to follow the ancient path of migration. As she embarks on her journey across California, she encounters lush wildflower meadows, sprawling urban landscapes, and barren fields where milkweed once grew. Along the way, she meets other creatures—some struggling to survive in changing environments and others adapting in unexpected ways. With each stop, Luna faces new challenges: dodging traffic, finding food in pesticide-laden fields, and braving unpredictable weather. She learns from an elder butterfly about the dwindling habitats and the humans trying to save them. As she nears her destination, Luna must make a choice—will she settle in the last remaining sanctuary, or will she fight to find a new path forward? Told through the eyes of a fragile yet resilient monarch, Wings of Change is a heartfelt story about the impact of climate change and habitat destruction on one of nature’s most delicate travelers. With themes of perseverance, interconnectedness, and hope, this book invites readers to see the world from a butterfly’s perspective and inspires action to protect our shared home.

It was a crisp October day, I woke up to the other dogs whining as the shelter workers let us all out of our kennels. Yes! Freedom! I ran so fast to the playroom to play with my friends! Today was going to be a big day - I can feel it! I played for hours and hours, until I had to have a nap. After lunch I saw two humans walk in and sit on the floor. Everyone crowded around them, jumping on them. Get yourself together guys I thought. I quietly walked over and sat by the mans huge feet. I knew the drill, people visited us all the time and had a few cuddles. As I sat watching the commotion of Simba getting silly all over this ladies lap. I met eyes with the lady human, she immediately picked me up. My legs were dangling and I thought jeez lady I just had breakfast. I stared into her and she stared back, she said "its you, your the one." I said to myself ok lady, do you have food or a ball? The lady stood up and talked with a shelter worker, she came back and said "I'm going to be your new Mom" and I thought "Mom?." She said she would be back, she came back with a new collar and name tag with the name "Koda."

This is Peddy, and she is excited for her first day of school. Peddy kissed her mom and dad goodbye and walked out the door. As she happily sang, she made sure to walk on the side of the road where she could see approaching vehicles. On her way, Peddy saw Ian using his phone while walking and gasped, "Oh no!" She quickly approached Ian and said, "Good morning, Ian! Don’t use your phone while walking; it’s dangerous." Ian quickly put his phone away. "Oh, hi! Thank you for telling me, Peddy. Come on, let’s walk together!" As they continued walking, Peddy noticed white lines painted across the road. "Ian, we should walk on the pedestrian lane. Pedestrian lanes are designed to help us cross the road safely." They were about to cross when Peddy saw a traffic light ahead with three different colors. She stopped at the sidewalk. Ian looked at Peddy in confusion. "Why did you stop, Peddy? Come on! There are no cars anymore; we can cross the road." Peddy shook her head. "No, Ian. The traffic light is green, which means vehicles can go. Red means stop, and yellow means slow down." Ian then noticed the pedestrian signal. "Does the hand palm sign mean we should wait and not cross yet?" Peddy nodded. "Yes! And look, now the walking man signal has lit up. That means we can cross safely. That’s a pedestrian signal!" Ian was about to step forward, but Peddy stopped him again. "Before crossing, we should always follow the Stop, Look, and Listen rule. Stop before stepping onto the road. Look for approaching vehicles. Sometimes you can’t see them, so listen carefully for any nearby cars. If it’s all clear, then we can cross." Ian nodded, understanding the safety rules. Finally, Peddy and Ian walked across the pedestrian lane safely. They greeted the school guard happily, feeling secure and ready for their first day of school.

On a warm, sunny afternoon, a group of children gathered around a colorful picnic blanket. Birds chirped in the trees, and a gentle breeze rustled the grass. Ella, a curious little girl with sparkling eyes, held up a magnifying glass. "Look what I found!" she exclaimed, pointing at a tiny ladybug resting on a leaf and a smooth, round stone beside it. Tommy, a boy with a bright red cap, leaned in, tilting his head. "What's so special about a rock and a bug?" he asked. Ella grinned. "One of them is living, and the other is nonliving. Can you guess which is which?" Lily, a thoughtful girl who always had a book in her hands, adjusted her glasses. "The ladybug is alive! It moves, grows, and even eats," she said, watching the tiny insect crawl up a blade of grass. "Exactly!" Ella nodded. "And the stone? It doesn’t move, grow, or need food or water. That makes it non-living." Tommy picked up the stone and turned it over in his palm. "So, living things need food, water, and air to grow—like us, trees, and the ladybug!" he said. "And non-living things stay the same unless something moves or changes them," Lily added with a smile. Ella clapped her hands. "Let's go on a nature hunt! Let's find more living and non-living things!" The children ran around the park, eyes wide with excitement. "Look! A butterfly!" Lily called. "These flowers are living too!" Tommy added, crouching to observe a bright yellow daisy. "But this fallen twig is non-living now because it’s no longer growing," Ella pointed out. They laughed and shouted out their discoveries, filling the air with joy. As the sun began to set, Tommy stretched his arms. "This was so much fun! I can't wait to explore more tomorrow." Ella held up her stone and leaf. "Me too! There's so much more to discover." With happy hearts, they walked home under the twinkling stars, ready for another day of adventure.

Our memory and our brain are amazing! However, it does not record our lives like a book! You cannot go back to a previous chapter to retrieve memories accurately. Attention issues, prior knowledge, and memory decay all interfere with the actual memories that are stored. There are so many different parts to our memory that all work separately and together to help us experience and remember life. Your task is to create a children's book about manny the monkey that creates a story highlighting KEY concepts for each aspect of memory: Encoding, Storage, & Retrieval. Your book should be like a “cliff notes” of memory and should walk me through these processes in an easy to understand manner. Have fun and be creative The book must play out like a cohesive story Requirements: ✧ Include all the section listed below ✧ Color!!! ✧ Title Page & Table of Contents ✧ Pictures dispersed throughout the book ✧ Effort is evident ✧ Information is CONCISE and put into easy to understand words, examples, etc. ✧ Make it MEANINGFUL to you! Use personal examples for concepts if possible! Three Main Chapters & Prologue (Introduction) ✓ Encoding o Automatic Vs. Effortful Processing ▪ Include explicit and implicit memories o Effortful Processing Strategies o Spacing Effect o Shallow Vs. Deep Processing (Meaningful) ✓ Storage o Explicit Memory System ▪ Frontal Lobes ▪ Hippocampus o Implicit Memory System ▪ Cerebellum ▪ Basal Ganglia o The Amygdala and Memory o Synaptic Changes and Memory Processing ✓ Retrieval o How do we measure retention? ▪ Recall, recognition, relearning o Retrieval Cues ▪ Priming ▪ Context Dependent Memory ▪ State Dependent Memory ▪ Serial Position Effect
