Small Wonder is a collection of 23 essays on environmentalism and social justice by American novelist and biologist Barbara Kingsolver, published in 2002 by Harper Collins. It reached number 3 in the New York Times non-fiction paperback best seller list in May 2003. The cover shows two scarlet macaws, the subject of one of the essays, in flight against a tropical forest.
Context
Kingsolver wrote the book in response to the 9/11 attacks, with the theme of 'reclaiming' patriotism for Americans who did not agree with the current direction of the country. The essay "And Our Flag Was Still There" was first published in the Los Angeles Times and her views such as "In my lifetime I have seen the flag waved over the sound of sabre-rattling too many times for my comfort" received an angry response from many US commentators. Some of the essays were co-written with Kingsolver's husband Steven Hopp, an ornithologist.
Reception
Rosemary Canfield-Reisman noted that the book was not as well-received as her other work and that it was "labeled unpatriotic by some reviewers and naive by others."
"You and I" is a song written by Frank J. Myers, and recorded by American country music artists Eddie Rabbitt and Crystal Gayle as a duet. It was released in October 1982 as the first single from the album Radio Romance. "You and I" became a major country pop crossover hit for both artists.
In 2005, the song ranked number 7 on CMT's 100 Greatest Duets in Country Music. Gayle performed the duet Raul Malo of The Mavericks since Rabbitt had died of lung cancer in 1998.
"You and I" went to number 1 on the Country chart for one week.
On the Billboard Hot 100, the song spent 23 weeks on the chart, peaking at number 7, and making it the 12th biggest song of the year.

Vicky and Jamie dance Michael Jackson - Small Wonder (USA TV series)
Eh-hem ^^ This is the scene from TV Series Small Wonder season 1 episode 3 named "The Sitter", which was orginally aired on September 21st, 1985 when I was not even born yet. I remember I first watched this show on channel AN GIANG and channel DONG THAP (local TV channels of my hometown CHAU DOC) when I was in elementary school which was about ten years after it had been originally aired in the USA. I like this scene a lot because Vicky and Jamie were so cute in it. Those were such beautiful memories of my childhood which makes me feel so good recalling them.

You know Vicky that I love you You are programmed what to do Is it wrong to feel this way I could tell you what to say But late in the evening when it's starting to get dark her light sensors defect to make a spark to set her ablaze with passions and desires She's lost control Only love can quench her fire She's fantastic made of plastic Microchips here and there She's a small wonder Love and laughter everywhere But once again when the sun is going down She becomes a menace, a terror of the town Her appetite for lust No man could ever know She's not human, no Vicky
