Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years after the publication of Robert the Rose Horse comes Joan Heilbroner's second Beginner Book—A Pet Named Sneaker, with illustrations by Pascal Lemaitre. A madcap tale reminiscent of The Cat in the Hat, Go, Dog. Go!, and A Fish Out of Water, Sneaker is the story of a pet-store snake who longs for a real home. When he is finally adopted by Pete—a young boy charmed by Sneaker's uncanny ability to twist himself into different shapes—Sneaker not only proves himself a good pet, but proves to be a good student (sneaking into school with Pete and learning to read and write); a good citizen (saving a drowing toddler at a community pool); and a goodwill ambassador for the entire animal kingdom (inspiring the community to open the pool to all animals)! With delightfully understated, wickedly funny illustrations by Pascal Lemaitre, this is a fantastic, funny book that will sneakily get beginning readers reading on their own! Originally created by Dr. Seuss, Beginner Books encourage children to read all by themselves, with simple words and illustrations that give clues to their meaning. From the Hardcover edition.
Book Synopsis The Serpent in Samuel by : Brian A. Verrett
Download or read book The Serpent in Samuel written by Brian A. Verrett and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, Brian A. Verrett argues that 1–2 Samuel contains a serpent motif by practicing biblical theology and literary criticism. This motif derives from the serpent in Genesis 3, and its function within the Samuel narrative is to heighten the reader’s anticipation in the coming messiah, who is the son of David and the seed of the woman from Genesis 3:15. This messiah will defeat the serpent and inaugurate his glorious reign over a renewed world. When 1–2 Samuel is read in this way, one appreciates previously unnoticed features of the text, understands aspects of the text that were formerly confusing, and rightly sees that the whole of 1–2 Samuel is a messianic document.

Except . . . he totally is. Can he conquer his fear by facing the ghost that lives in the walls of his house? After an unfortunate (and very embarrassing) incident in the Space Museum, Sam goes on a mission to prove to the school bully, and all his friends, that he’s not afraid of anything—just like the heroes on his favorite show, Space Blasters. And when it looks like his house is haunted, Sam gets the chance to prove how brave he can be. A funny, touching, and charming story of ghost hunting, escaped pet snakes, and cats with attitude!

Book Synopsis Healing through the Dark Emotions by : Miriam Greenspan
Download or read book Healing through the Dark Emotions written by Miriam Greenspan and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2004-05-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nautilus Book Award Gold Winner A psychotherapist offers “crucial” guidance on how to “alter fundamentally our fearful relationship to deep feelings,” from depression and anxiety to grief and fear (Los Angeles Times) We are all touched at some point by the dark emotions of grief, fear, or despair. In an age of global threat, these emotions have become widespread and overwhelming. While conventional wisdom warns us of the harmful effects of “negative” emotions, this revolutionary book offers a more hopeful view: there is a redemptive power in our worst feelings. Seasoned psychotherapist Miriam Greenspan argues that it’s the avoidance and denial of the dark emotions that results in the escalating psychological disorders of our time: depression, anxiety, addiction, psychic numbing, and irrational violence. And she shows us how to trust the wisdom of the dark emotions to guide, heal, and transform our lives and our world. Drawing on inspiring stories from her psychotherapy practice and personal life, and including a complete set of emotional exercises, Greenspan teaches the art of emotional alchemy by which grief turns to gratitude, fear opens the door to joy, and despair becomes the ground of a more resilient faith in life. “This remarkable book has taught me a whole new way of thinking.” —Harold Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People “A beautiful piece of work destined to become a perennial classic.” —Martha Beck, author of The Joy Diet

Book Synopsis The Long Gray Line by : Rick Atkinson
Download or read book The Long Gray Line written by Rick Atkinson and published by Picador. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller about West Point's Class of 1966, by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author Rick Atkinson. "A story of epic proportions [and] an awesome feat of biographical reconstruction."—The Boston Globe A classic of its kind, The Long Gray Line is the twenty-five-year saga of the West Point class of 1966. With a novelist's eye for detail, Rick Atkinson (author of the Liberation Trilogy) illuminates this powerful story through the lives of three classmates and the women they loved—from the boisterous cadet years, to the fires of Vietnam, to the hard peace and internal struggles that followed the war. The rich cast of characters also includes Douglas MacArthur, William C. Westmoreland, and a score of other memorable figures. The class of 1966 straddled a fault line in American history, and Atkinson's masterly book speaks for a generation of American men and women about innocence, patriotism, and the price we pay for our dreams

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new fantasy-adventure series from N. D. Wilson, bestselling author of 100 Cupboards, pits a misfit twelve-year-old against a maniacal villain with a deadly vendetta. This one-of-a kind story is must read for fans of Brandon Mull and Soman Chainani, and the start of a thrilling tale from a masterful storyteller. Sam Miracle’s life is made up of dreams, dreams where he’s a courageous, legendary hero instead of a foster kid with two bad arms that can barely move. Sometimes these dreams feel so real, they seem like forgotten memories. And sometimes they make him believe that his arms might come alive again. But Sam is about to discover that the world he knows and the world he imagines are separated by only one thing: time. And that separation is only an illusion. The laws of time can be bent and shifted by people with special magic that allows them to travel through the past, present, and future. But not all of these “time walkers” can be trusted. One is out to protect Sam so that he can accept his greatest destiny, and another is out to kill him so that a prophecy will never be fulfilled. However, it’s an adventurous girl named Glory and two peculiar snakes who show Sam the way through the dark paths of yesterday to help him make sure there will be a tomorrow for every last person on earth.

Download or read book Beyond the Wall written by ,N.R.Moore and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond the Wall is an exploration of the limits of human understanding, encouraging us to engage in a curious and compelling journey as our imagination travels through time from 1917 New York to modern-day South Carolina. As we travel in time, we are challenged to move from what we think we know into a realm of infinite possibilities. Beginning prior to the Great War in Europe, part 1 is "The Journal," the personal reflections of Gabrielle Carteret, an unmarried woman in her midtwenties who lives in a castle built by an eccentric English aristocratic father on an island in the middle of the Hudson River. Gabrielle is beautiful, endlessly curious, and eager to learn, well aware, beyond the allure of her wealth, of her inability to satisfy the expectations of New York society. Through her brother, John, Gabrielle is introduced to the Withers family of Charleston and, following her marriage, settles into a Georgian mansion surrounded by trees and beautiful gardens, all but hidden behind a tall, ivy-covered wall. "The Journal" is funny and endearing, often profound, and occasionally sad. It is a glimpse into life and the struggles of womanhood during a time in history. Part 2, "The Gift," begins a hundred years after the final journal entry, the story of Gabrielle's adopted granddaughter, Reid Withers Hill, a sensitive, mysterious child who was abandoned at a truck stop near the city when she was not yet three years old. As the story begins, Reid is in her middle fifties and is reflecting on her life in the Charleston mansion. Perhaps it is her nebulous beginning or undefined racial heritage, perhaps it is that she realizes she is simply different, but Reid has never been at ease in the world. As the natural course of events occur and death removes from her life those whom she loves most, Reid withdraws behind the safety of the wall and into a lonely world of fantastic nightly dreams. Her mental health is questioned, and it is left to friends to keep her grounded. This is no simple book. At the surface, there are historical settings, fantasy, and beautiful love stories to enjoy. But beneath the surface, it is a study of the human spirit, our underlying search for purpose, and the ultimate fulfillment of that purpose. As threads from Gabrielle's journal are tugged in "The Gift" and as they are woven into place, the full tapestry is revealed, and troubling questions find their answers. Even once read, however, one may well find oneself pondering new questions, more questions. And so it goes.

Book excerpt: In an ancient time of magic and dragons, Sam leads a small group of teenagers that have been brought together by fate. They must first fight for their own freedom. They learn to trust one another as they are sent on a mission for a god, an epic quest of its own. They must travel over land and sea and across the front lines of a war to fulfill their quest. Sam and his friends meet many on their journey; some who help them and others who seek their lives, and still others who need their help because no one else will. Sam grows from an orphaned young teen to a quiet, confident leader of a small community. Throughout their quest, they must be ever vigilant for dangers around every corner, including traps, men and monsters that they had never heard of. Plus they meet face to face with both a dragon and a vengeful god.
