Cover of the book "Up" by Dr Lucy Rogers. There are butterflies, fireflies, glowworms, bats, a kite, an aeroplane, a hot air balloon, clouds and the moon on the cover. And inside the book too.
My book's out on Thurs.
I have a request - pls ask your local library to get a copy so everybody can enjoy it? (also available as audiobook).

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.”
Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life.
Common sense.
Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.

Angled product photo of the Adafruit TMF8806 VCSEL dToF Breakout board. The green PCB features the TMF8806 time-of-flight sensor (center, labeled U2) with its purple-tinted optical window, a voltage regulator (U3), and a small MOSFET for level shifting (Q3). Two white STEMMA QT / Qwiic connectors sit on the left and right edges for solderless I2C daisy-chaining. Seven breakout pins along the bottom are labeled VIN, GND, SCL, SDA, INT, and EN. Four mounting holes sit at the corners. White silkscreen at the top reads "TMF8806 VCSEL dToF" with additional labels G0, G1, CONN3, and CONN4. A small red power LED (D1) is visible near the bottom right. Board includes standard passives: resistors R3 and R7, capacitors C1, C4, and C5.
