David Parker Ray was a suspected American serial killer and known torturer and serial rapist of women; suspected because no bodies were ever found. However, he was accused by his accomplices of murdering a number of women and law enforcement officials estimate that he is responsible for as many as 60 deaths in and near Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Ray purchased and refitted a trailer into what he called his "toy box" which was replete with a number of sex toys and torture items for his victims. He also played a very disturbing audiotape for all of his victims explaining what they will be enduring at his hand. Ray was finally arrested after one of his victims managed to escape after three days of torture. Ray stood trial for kidnapping and sexual torture and was sentenced to 224 years in prison; however, he suffered a fatal heart attack while incarcerated at Lea County Correctional Facility in Hobbs, New Mexico, on 28 May 2002.

"Trust me, I'm a doctor" - Harold Shipman Dr. Harold Frederick Shipman was known in England as "Dr. Death." He is one of the most prolific serial killers in recorded history who, between 1974 and 1998, was suspected of killing over 215 of his patients by poisoning them with lethal injections of morphine. He was ultimately found guilty of 15 murders and sentenced to life in prison, never to be released. Shipman committed suicide while in prison on 13 January 2004.

Couples Who Kill

Donald Leroy Evans was an American serial killer who allegedly killed over 15 people between 1970 and 1991 but confessed to over 60 murderers-mostly women-at rest stops and parks throughout 20 U.S. states. He was arrested after leading police to the body of a homeless ten-year-old girl, Beatrice Routh, who he had kidnapped in Mississippi, taken to Louisiana where he raped and strangled her to death, and then dumped her body in a shallow grave back in Mississippi. Evans pled guilty to the offense and then to an additional 60 murders (some reports state that the number was 72); however, authorities could not find any evidence corroborating his claims and, later, Evans admitted it was a hoax.

Rest Stop Killer

John Wayne Glover-also known as the "Granny Killer"-was a serial killer who was active in Sydney, Australia, between 1989 and 1990 who murdered at least six-and as many as 13-elderly females after hitting them with a claw hammer and then ritually strangling them with their own pantyhose. It was widely believed that Glover's victims represented his mother and mother-in-law who he blamed for his misdeeds. He was ultimately sentenced to six life sentences without any possibility of release. Glover committed suicide by hanging himself on 9 September 2005.

Pull the tabs--what will you find? There's something fun hiding on every page! Where are you? And where are you going? With a pull of the tab, preschoolers can happily gaze at otters as they swim below, beside, or above each other; watch one octopus emerge from behind another who was in front; and see polar bears up on a snowdrift, sliding across the ice, and down into the water. What a cool, interactive way for kids to grasp the concept of location!

Up Down Across

Katherine Mary Knight was born to shed blood. Born October 24th, 1955, she has the distinction of being the first Australian woman to be sentenced to life without the possibility of parole when she murdered her de facto husband John Charles Thomas Price, born 6 January 1955, in Aberdeen, New South Wales, Australia. The murder itself is not necessarily the stuff of horror films or nightmares with extreme heinousness even though Knight did, in fact, stab Price 37 times. Knight's subsequent defilement of Price's body following the murder was extremely atrocious and, as such, was the fundamental reason she received a life without parole sentence. So heinous, in fact that her file is marked "never to be released."
