Book excerpt: The long-awaited first novel about growing up Asian American by award-winning author Ken Mochizuki. Like other Japanese American families in the Beacon Hill area of Seattle, 16-year-old Dan Inagaki's parents expect him to be an example of the "model minority." But unlike Dan's older brother, with his 4.0 GPA and Ivy League scholarship, Dan is tired of being called "Oriental" by his teachers, and sick of feeling invisible; Dan's growing self-hatred threatens his struggle to claim an identity. Sharing his anger and confusion are his best friends, Jerry Ito, Eddie Kanagae, and Frank Ishimoto, and together these Beacon Hill Boys fall into a spiral of rebellion that is all too all-American.

The influenza pandemic that’s sweeping the world has claimed his father’s life; his voice has changed, so he can’t sing in the Boston Boys’ Choir anymore; and now money is tight, so he must quit school to get a job. It’s not fair! Joshua begins working as a newspaper boy, hawking papers on the street, but he soon finds himself competing with Charlestown Charlie, a tough, streetwise boy who does not make things easier for Joshua. It seems that fitting in is not as easy as it once was. Then disaster strikes the city of Boston. Joshua must do what he can to help, and in doing so he finds the place—and the voice—that he thought he’d lost. This remarkable novel is fast-paced, suspenseful, and based on true incidents in Boston history.

And with so much at stake, can either truly trust the other? Simpson has a terrific story to tell and plenty of talent to pull it off. --Chicago Tribune
Book Synopsis Doing What’s Best For Kids by : John Gilpin
Download or read book Doing What’s Best For Kids written by John Gilpin and published by Brush Education. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing What’s Best for Kids is a centennial history of one of the most important social institutions in the history of Fort McMurray. It explores the Fort McMurray Public School Board’s relationship since 1912 to the development of oil sands, salt mining, fishing, lumbering, steamboat operations, aviation and railway development. The booms and busts of these industries at times threatened the existence of the district and at other times were the basis for growth. The people who have made this history are a feature of this book. This group includes Douglas Craig and Cassia McTavish, who ensured that the fledgling school established in 1912 would survive the economic slump of 1913. The struggles with the department of education in Edmonton over funding and school approvals are another theme. Collectively it is the story of persistence and accomplishment in a location far from Edmonton, but rich in human and natural resources.

Book excerpt: In the shadow of an old Bacchus Hill, bricks and stone were the only things standing from a time long past and only a handful of men could recall its former glory. Among them were his bestfriend Alistair, ‘The Lion” Bacchus. Lennox Marshall was always his trusted confidant for all things related to ‘the hill.’ For them, past events carried both fond memories and haunting secrets, a time when men settled matters with their fists or raucous pub brawl. But in this new evolved world, life had turned into a mess of deceit, hidden behind computer screens, and cloaked in technology. Lennox, was a man of timeless values, clung steadfastly to the old ways of honor and respect. Kiman Asher, his new night auditor, raised something in him and he was instantly drawn into her gaze. She sought solace within the hotel walls, fearing an unknown darkness. One fateful night, she sought refuge in Lennox's arms, after her past comes walking through the doors of his hotel and he felt an overwhelming need to protect her. Of course, as is their way, Lennox delves into her troubles, he discovered the shocking truth—an organization claimed she owed them a debt, one he was sure as hell not going to let her pay. Kiman now under his care and that of Bacchus Hill, Lennox abandoned caution. Love had awakened a savage recklessness in him, and he was ready to wage war. Lennox was ready to confront his past and unleash the depths his passion and wrath for his Kiman. Sometimes the old ways were best, in situations like this and for the woman he loved. They would see a side of him that was bathed in blood.
